In t ro d u ct io n t o h o m e t h e a t e r  
You are probably used to using stereo equipment to listen to music, but may not be used to home  
theater systems that give you many more options (such as surround sound) when listening to  
soundtracks.  
Home theater refers to the use of multiple audio tracks to create a surround sound effect, making  
you feel like you're in the middle of the action or concert. The surround sound you get from a home  
theater system depends not only on the speakers you have set up in your room, but also on the  
source and the sound settings of the receiver.  
DVD-Video has become the basic source material for home theater due to its size, quality, and ease  
of use. Depending on the DVD, you can have up to seven different audio tracks coming from one  
disc, all of them being sent to different speakers in your system. This is what creates a surround  
sound effect and gives you the feeling of being there.  
This receiver will automatically decode Dolby Digital, DTS, or Dolby Surround DVD-Video discs,  
according to your speaker setup. In most cases, you wont have to make changes for realistic  
surround sound, but other possibilities (like listening to a CD with multi-channel surround sound)  
are explained in Playing sources, starting on page 24.

List e n in g t o Su rro u n d So u n d  
This receiver was designed with the easiest possible setup in mind, so with the following quick  
setup guide, you should have your system hooked up for surround sound in no time at all. In most  
cases, you can simply leave the receiver in the default settings.  
1
Hook up your DVD player.  
For surround sound, youll want to hook up using a digital connection from the DVD player to the  
receiver. You can do this with either a coaxial, or an optical connection (you dont need to do both). If  
you hook up using an optical cable, you should refer to Optical digital input setting on page 32 to  
assign the optical input to DVD.  
Use a video cord to connect the video output on your DVD to the receiver using the jacks shown  
below.

Hook up your TV.  
Use a video cord to connect your receiver to the TV using the jacks as shown below.

Connect your speakers.  
A complete setup of six speakers (including the subwoofer) is shown here, but everyones home  
setup will vary. Simply connect the speakers you have in the manner shown below. The receiver will  
work with just two stereo speakers (the front speakers in the diagram) but using at least three  
speakers is recommended, and all six is best. If youre not using a subwoofer, change the front  
speaker setting (see Speaker setting on page 30) to large.  
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right terminal and the speaker on the left to  
the left terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+ /) terminals on the receiver match  
those on the speakers.  
Use speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 to 16 .

For proper decoding of Dolby Digital/DTS soundtracks, you need to make digital audio connections.  
You can do this by either coaxial or optical connections (you dont need to do both). The quality of  
these two types of connections is the same, but since some digital components only have one type  
of digital terminal, it is a matter of matching like with like (for example, the coaxial output from the  
component to the coaxial input on the receiver). This receiver has both a coaxial and an optical  
input for a total of two digital inputs. Connect your digital components as shown below.  
When connecting your equipment, always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is  
disconnected from the wall outlet.

To begin set up, connect your analog audio components (such as a cassette deck) to the jacks. For  
components you want to record with, you need to hook up four plugs (a set of stereo ins and a set of  
stereo outs), but for components that only play, you only need to hook up one set of stereo ins (two  
plugs). You should also hook up your digital components to analog audio jacks if you want to record  
to/from digital components (like an MD) to/from analog components. See above for more on digital  
connections.

Connect your video components to the jacks as shown below. Regarding digital video components  
(like a DVD player), you must use the connections pictured on this page for the video signal, but in  
order to hear a digital source (like a DVD) you should hook up the audio to a digital input (see page  
12). It is also a good idea to hook up your digital components with analog audio connections (see  
page 12).  
For better quality video, you can hook up using the S-video jacks on the rear of the receiver instead  
of the regular video jacks (VSX-D511 only). Make sure you use an S-video cable to connect to the S-  
video jack on the component you are hooking up (see page 11).  
When connecting your equipment always make sure the power is turned off and the power cord is  
disconnected from the wall outlet.

subwoofer, change the front speaker setting (see Speaker setting on page 30) to large.  
Make sure you connect the speaker on the right to the right terminal and the speaker on the left to  
the left terminal. Also make sure the positive and negative (+ /) terminals on the receiver match  
those on the speakers.

Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker  
terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the rear panel it may cause the power to cut off as  
a safety measure. Use good quality speaker wire to connect the speakers to the receiver.

Speakers are usually designed with a particular placement in mind. Some are designed to be  
floorstanding, while others should be placed on stands to sound their best. Some should be placed  
near a wall; others should be placed away from walls. We have provided a few tips on getting the  
best sound from your speakers (below), but you should also follow the guidelines on placement that  
the speaker manufacturer provided with your particular speakers to get the most out of them.  
Place the front left and right speakers at  
equal distances from the TV.  
To achieve the best possible surround  
sound, install your speakers as shown  
below. Be sure all speakers are installed  
securely to prevent accidents and improve  
sound quality.  
When placing speakers near the TV, we  
recommend using magnetically shielded  
speakers to prevent possible interference,  
such as discoloration of the picture when  
the TV is switched on. If you do not have  
magnetically shielded speakers and notice  
discoloration of the TV picture, move the  
speakers farther away from the TV.

Place the center speaker above or below the

localized at the TV screen.

If you choose to install the center speaker  
on top of the TV, be sure to secure it with  
putty, or by other suitable means, to  
reduce the risk of damage or injury  
resulting from the speaker falling from  
the TV in the event of external shocks  
such as earthquakes.  
Listening Position  
3-D view of speaker set up  
If possible, place the surround speakers  
slightly above ear level.  
Try not to place the surround speakers  
further away from the listening position than  
the front and center speakers. Doing so can  
weaken the surround sound effect.

DO NOT CONNECT A MONITOR, TV SET, HEATER, OR SIMILAR  
APPLIANCE TO THIS UNIT'S AC OUTLET.  
Do not connect appliances with high power consumption to the  
AC OUTLET in order to avoid overheating and fire risk. This can  
also cause the receiver to malfunction.  
Make sure no exposed speaker wire is touching the rear panel, this may cause the receiver to  
turn off automatically.  
This unit should be disconnected by removing the power plug from the wall socket when not in  
regular use (ex. when on vacation).  
POWER-CORD CAUTION  
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the  
power cord when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or an electric shock. Do not  
place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord. Never make a knot in  
the cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed such that they are not likely to  
be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the  
power cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized service  
center or your dealer for a replacement.

Pro Lo g ic II Mo vie  
In t ro d u ct io n t o So u n d Mo d e s  
This mode gives 5.1 channel surround sound. It  
is suitable for movies, especially those recorded  
in Dolby Surround. The channel separation and  
movement of surround effects is comparable to  
Dolby Digital 5.1.  
There are three basic sound options: Stereo/  
Direct, Standard or Advanced Surround.  
St e re o /Dire ct  
When you select STEREO or DIRECT, you will  
hear the source through just the front left and  
right speakers (and possibly your subwoofer  
depending on your speaker settings). Dolby  
Digital and DTS multi-channel sources are  
downmixed to stereo.  
Pro Lo g ic II Mu sic  
This mode gives 5.1 channel surround sound  
and is suitable for music. Compared to Pro  
Logic II Movie, the surround effect is more  
enveloping.  
In STEREO, the audio plays according to the  
surround setup settings and you can still use  
Midnight mode, Loudness mode and Tone  
Control functions.  
Ad va n ce d Su rro u n d m o d e s  
These are designed to be used with multi  
channel surround sound audio/visual sources  
(like DVDs and LDs). Most Advanced Surround  
modes are designed to be used with film  
soundtracks, but some modes are also suited  
for music sources. Try different settings with  
various soundtracks to see which you like.  
When you select DIRECT, the audio bypasses  
the tone controls and channel levels for the  
most accurate reproduction of a source.  
St a n d a rd m o d e s  
The Standard mode can be used to decode  
Dolby Digital, DTS or Dolby Surround sources.  
The surround mode options (below) can also  
add surround sound to regular stereo sources.

Exp a n d e d  
This mode is especially designed to give sound  
depth to stereo sources. The overall effect  
builds a dynamic and broad sound space,  
allowing two-channel (stereo) signals to imitate  
a five speaker sound. Use with Dolby Pro Logic  
for a stereo surround effect. You can also use  
with Dolby Digital sources for a wider stereo  
field than the Standard modes.  
DVD 5.1 ch is only available when DVD/LD  
is selected as the source.  
This receiver can only play back Dolby  
Digital, PCM (32kHz, 44kHz, 48kHz, and 96  
kHz) and DTS digital signal formats. With  
other digital signal formats, set to  
ANALOG.  
You may get digital noise when a LD or CD  
player compatible with DTS is playing an  
analog signal. To prevent noise, make the  
proper digital connections (page 12) and  
set the signal input to DIGITAL.  
5-Ch a n n e l St e re o  
This can be selected to give multi-channel  
sound to a stereo source, using all the speakers

Some DVD players dont output DTS
