System Connections  
• Please be certain that this unit is unplugged from the AC outlet before making any connections.  
• Since different components often have different terminal names, carefully read the operating instructions of the component  
connected.  
• Be sure to observe the color coding when connecting audio, video and speaker cords.  
• Make connections firmly and correctly. If not, it can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver.  
1. CONNECTING ANTENNAS  
• Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you  
get the best reception of your favorite FM stations.  
• A 75Ω outdoor FM antenna may be used to further  
improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor antenna  
before replacing it with the outdoor one.  
• Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible from the receiv-  
er, TV set, speaker cords and the AC input cord and set it to a  
direction for the best reception.  
• If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna, an AM out-  
door antenna can be used in place of the AM loop antenna.

2. CONNECTING VIDEO COmPONENTS  
• The jacks of VIDEO 1 may also be connected to a DVD recorder or other digital video recording component. For details, refer  
to the operating instructions of the component to be connected.  
• The jacks of VIDEO 2/VIDEO 3 can also be connected to an additional video component such as a cable TV tuner or satellite  
system.  
• Connect the jacks of VIDEO 3 to the video component in the same way.  
• There are three types of video jacks (COMPONENT, S-VIDEO, (composite) VIDEO) for analog video connections and the  
HDMI connectors for digital video and audio connections.  
Connect them to the corresponding video jacks according to their capability.  
• For your reference, the excellence in picture quality is as follows : "HDMI” > "COMPONENT" > "S-VIDEO" > "(composite)  
VIDEO" .  
• When making COMPONENT VIDEO connections, connect "Y" to "Y", "PB/CB" to "CB"(or "B-Y", "PB") and "PR/CR" to "CR"(or  
"R-Y", "PR").  
• When recording video program sources through VIDEO 1 OUT jack or viewing video program sources through MONITOR  
OUT or ROOM 2 OUT jack, you must use the same type of video jacks that you did connect to video playback components  
such as DVD player, cable TV tuner, etc.  
Video conversion  
• Depending on the Video Mode settings, this unit converts the video input signal (such as component video signal, S-Video  
signal and composite video signal) and outputs from the HDMI MONITOR OUT. (For details, refer to “When selecting the  
Video Mode” on page 52.)  
Notes :  
• You can connect Apple iPod to this receiver via Sherwood iPod dock. If Sherwood iPod dock is connected to DIGI LINK-i jack  
for system control, you should connect its video and audio jacks to the "VIDEO 2" jacks of this receiver. Because, when you  
control your iPod with the unit's remote control, the VIDEO 2/iPod is automatically selected as an input source and the  
corresponding operation is performed.  
• The OSD menu and the momentary OSD can be displayed via the HDMI MONITOR OUT only.  
However, when the Video Scaling is set to HDMI Bypass and the video signals are input into the HDMI IN, the momentary  
OSD cannot be displayed via the HDMI MONITOR OUT. (For details, refer to “When selecting the Video Scaling” on page  
53.)

HDmI (High Definition multimedia Interface) connection : (*1)  
• You can connect the source component (BD player, etc.) to the display component (TV, projector, etc.) through this receiver  
with using a commercially available HDMI cord.  
• The HDMI connection can carry uncompressed digital video signals and digital audio signals.  
• The HDMI video stream signals (video signals) are theoretically compatible with DVI-D. When connecting to a TV monitor,  
etc., equipped with DVI-D connector, it is possible to connect using a commercially available HDMI-DVI converter cord.  
Since the HDMI-to-DVI connection cannot carry any audio signals, you should make audio connections to play the audio  
signals on the component equipped with DVI-D connector. (For details, refer to the operating instructions of its.)  
• If you connect the HDMI INs to your video components, it is easier to do so following the default settings.

LLC.  
Notes :  
• For stable signal transfer, we recommend using HDMI cords that are a maximum of 5 meters in length.  
• Among the components that support HDMI, some components can control other components via the HDMI connector.  
However, this unit cannot be controlled by another component via the HDMI connector.  
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by the  
component that is connected.  
• The video signals will not be output properly if a component incompatible with HDCP is connected.  
• If the resolutions of the video signals which are output from the MONITOR OUTs and your monitor TV are not matched, the  
picture is not clear, natural or displayed. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source component (DVD  
player, etc.) to one which the monitor TV can handle. (For details, refer to the operating instructions of the source component.)  
• When you want to enjoy only the picture on your TV, not the sound, you should set the HDMI Audio Output to Speaker not to  
output the digital audio signal from the HDMI MONITOR OUT of this receiver. (For details, refer to "When selecting the HDMI  
Audio Output" on page 41.)  
Component video input default settings: (*2)  
• If you connect the COMPONENT VIDEO INs to your video components, it is easier to do so following the default settings.  
• If your component video connections are different from the default setting, you should assign the COMPONENT VIDEO INs  
you used with the "When selecting the Component Assign" procedure on page 52.  
• The default settings are as follows:  
COMPONENT IN 1 : VIDEO 1, COMPONENT IN 2 : VIDEO 2/iPod

6. CONNECTING SPEAkERS  
• Be sure to connect speakers firmly and correctly  
according to the channel(left and right) and the  
polarity (+ and -). If the connections are faulty,  
no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if  
the polarity of the speaker connection is  
incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack  
bass.  
• For installing the speakers, refer to "Speaker  
placement" on page 9.  
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the  
speaker settings according to your environment  
and speaker layout. (For details, refer to  
"SETTING THE SPEAKER /ROOM EQ SETUP"  
on page 43.)  
Surround back speakers  
• When using only one surround back speaker,  
you should connect it to SURROUND BACK/  
MULTI LEFT channel.  
• Because this receiver cannot drive the surround  
back speakers and the ROOM 2 speakers  
simultaneously, you should assign their power  
amplifier correctly depending on how to use  
them. (For details, refer to "CONNECTING  
ROOM 2 OUTS" on page 10 and "When  
selecting the AMP Assign" on page 41.)  
Front Bi-Amp Connections.  
• Some speakers are equipped with two sets of  
input terminals, for bi-amplification.  
• If no other surround back speakers are used,  
you can connect the FRONT and the  
SURROUND BACK/MULTI channels to the bi-  
amp-capable speakers. (For details, refer to the  
operating instructions of your bi-amp-capable  
speakers.)  
• To drive the bi-amp-capable speakers, you  
should assign the power amplifier to "Bi AMP".  
Note :  
• Before making bi-amp connections, remove the  
short-circuiting bars from the terminals of your  
speakers.  
Caution :  
• Be sure to use the speakers with the impedance  
of 6 ohms or above.  
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each  
other or any metal part of this unit. This could  
damage this unit and/or the speakers.  
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the AC  
input cord is connected to the wall AC outlet.  
Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Connecting speaker wire  
1. Strip away approx. 10 mm  
(3/8 inch) of wire insulation,  
then twist the wire ends  
tight.  
2. Lossen by turning the  
speaker terminal counter-  
clockwise.  
3. Insert the bare part of the  
wire.  
4. Tighten by turning it  
clockwise.  
Speaker placement  
Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of  
your room and the wall coverings, etc. The typical example  
of speaker placement and recommendations are as follows :  
Front left and right speakers and center speaker  
• Place the front speakers with their front surfaces as flush  
with TV or monitor screen as possible.  
• Place the center speaker between the front left and right  
speakers and no further from the listening position than  
the front speakers.  
• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the location  
of the listener’s ears when at the main listening position.  
Surround left and right speakers  
• Place the surround speakers approximately 1 meter (40  
inches) above the ear level of a seated listener on the  
direct left and right of them or slightly behind.  
Surround back left and right speakers  
• Place the surround back speakers at the back facing the  
front at a narrower distance than front speakers.  
• When using a single surround back speaker, place it at the  
rear center facing the front at a slightly higher position (0  
to 20 cm ) than the surround speakers.  
• We recommend installing the surround back speaker(s) at  
a slightly downward facing angle. This effectively prevents  
the surround back channel signals from reflecting off the  
TV or screen at the front center, resulting in interference  
and making the sense of movement from the front to the  
back less sharp.  
1. TV or Screen  
2. Front left speaker  
3. Subwoofer  
4. Center speaker  
5. Front right speaker  
6. Surround left speaker  
7. Surround right speaker  
8. Surround back left speaker  
9. Surround back right speaker  
10. Surround center speaker  
11. Listening position  
Subwoofer  
• The subwoofer reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.  
Place a subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired.  
Notes :  
When using a conventional TV, to avoid interference with  
the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded front  
left and right and center speakers.  
To obtain the best surround effects, the speakers except  
the subwoofer should be full range speakers.  
7. CONNECTING SUBWOOFER PRE OUT  
• To emphasize the deep bass sounds, connect a powered  
subwoofer.

8. CONNECTING ROOm 2 OUTS  
• ROOM 2 playback feature allows you to play a different program source in another room as well as one source in the main  
room at the same time.  
• For ROOM 2 playback, connect the ROOM 2 OUT jacks to the amplifier, TV, etc. installed in another room, or  
connect the ROOM 2 speaker terminals to the speakers.  
• Because this receiver cannot drive the surround back speakers and the ROOM 2 speakers simultaneously, you should  
assign their power amplifier correctly depending on how to use them. (For details, refer to "When selecting the AMP Assign"  
on page 41.)  
Notes :  
• To minimize hum or noise, use high quality connection cords.  
• You cannot use the digital audio signal for ROOM 2 playback.  
9. CONNECTING FOR SYSTEm CONTROL  
• Connect this jack to the DIGI LINK-i jack of Sherwood  
iPod dock that allows you to control the iPod with the  
unit's remote control.

• This remote control can control up to 8 different components.  
• Before operating audio and video components other than this receiver with using this remote control, the setup code for each  
component should be entered.  
• For system remote control operation, “000” was stored previously in the memory of the device button “DOCK” for Sherwood iPod  
dock, “CD” for Sherwood CD player, “BD” for Sherwood BD/DVD player and “TV” for Sherwood TV respectively as its factory  
setup code. So, you don’t need to enter its code for each Sherwood component except in such a case that its code does not work.  
Entering a setup code  
1. Turn on the component you want to operate.  
4. Enter a 3 digit code, aiming the remote control at  
the remote sensor on the component.

steps 3 to 4 and try entering the same code again.  
• Manufacturers may use different setup codes for the  
same product category. For that reason, it is important  
that you check to see if the code you have entered  
operates as many controls as possible. If only a few  
functions operate, check to see if another code will work  
with more buttons.  
• The LED will flicker once.

Adjusting the current channel level  
• After adjusting each channel level with test tone, adjust the channel levels either according to the program sources or to suit  
your tastes.  
• You can adjust the current channel levels as desired. These adjusted levels are just memorized into user’s memory  
("CAL"), not into preset memory("MOVIE" for movieo source, "MUSIC" for music source).  
1. Press the CHANNEL LEVEL button.  
• Then the memory mode ("CAL", "MOVIE", etc) is displayed  
for several seconds.  
• When the memory mode or channel level disappears,  
press this button again.  
2. Select the desired channel.  
• Each time these buttons are pressed, the corresponding  
channel is selected as follows:  
CAL (or MOVIE, etc.) FL C FR SR ←  
<LFE> SUB SL(SB) or (SBL SBR) ←  
DTS LFE or Dolby Digital LFE  
(
): Possible depending on whether the surround back channel is  
set to "2 Channel" or "1 Channel (Left)".  
< >: Possible only when the digital signals from Dolby Digital, DTS,  
Dolby TrueHD or DTS HD program sources that include LFE  
signal are input.  
• Depending on the speaker settings("No", etc.) and  
surround mode, etc., some channels cannot be selected.  
• When the SPEAKER button is set to off, only the Front  
Left, Front Right(and LFE) channels can be selected.  
3. Adjust the level of the selected channel as desired.  
• The LFE level can be adjusted within the range of -10 ~  
0 dB and other channel levels within the range of -15 ~  
+15 dB.  
• In general, we recommend the LFE level to be adjusted  
to 0 dB.(However, the recommended LFE level for some  
early DTS software is -10 dB.) If the recommended  
levels seem too high, lower the setting as necessary.  
4. Repeat the above steps 2 and 3 to adjust each channel level.

Speaker/Room EQ Setup menu. (For details, refer to "SETTING THE SPEAKER/ ROOM EQ SETUP" on page 43.)  
Normal : When the low frequency signals of channels set to "Full Range " are reproduced from those channels only. In this  
mode, the low frequency signals that are reproduced from the subwoofer channel is only the low frequency signals of  
LFE (from the multi-channel sources that contains LFE (Low Frequency Effects) channel, also called the ".1" channel)  
and the channels set to the setting value other than "Full Range".  
Subwoofer Plus+ : When the low frequency signals of channels set to "Full Range" are reproduced simultaneously from those  
channels and the subwoofer channel.  
In this mode, the low frequency range expands more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size  
and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency  
range.

When selecting the Auto Setup  
• Auto Setup lets you avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieve good surround sound. Auto Setup has the  
feature that provides the optimum listening environment at the listening position in your room.  
You should connect the supplied microphone to the SETUP MIC jack so that this receiver can analyze the information from a  
series of test tones emitted from speakers at main listening position and can adjust the configuration, distance, sound level,  
crossover frequency and frequency response of each speaker automatically.  
• If you want to personalize your speaker setup and channel level setup by making the settings manually, perform the "When  
selecting the Speaker Configuration" on page 46, "When selecting the Speaker Crossover" on page 47, "When selecting the  
Speaker Distance" on page 48 and "When Selecting the Channel Level" on page 49.  
• After the auto setup has been completed, set the room EQ as desired. (For details, refer to "When selecting the Room EQ" on  
page 45.)  
Preparations  
. Check that the speakers are securely connected to this receiver.  
• If your subwoofer has adjustable volume and crossover frequency, set the volume halfway and set the crossover  
frequency to the maximum or the low pass filter off.  
. Connect the supplied microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the front panel.(For details, refer to "SETUP MIC JACK" on  
page 12.)  
Notes :  
• Because the microphone for Auto Setup is designed for use with this receiver, to use the auto setup function, do not use a  
microphone other than the one supplied with this receiver.  
• After you have completed the auto setup procedure, disconnect the microphone.  
1. Place the microphone on a flat level surface at the listening position.  
• If possible, use a tripod, etc. to attach the microphone at the same height as your ears would be when you are seated in your  
listening position.  
• Ensure there are no obstacles between the speakers and the microphone.

About the speaker distance  
When enjoying multi-channel surround playback with Dolby Digital and DTS sources, etc., it is ideal that the center, surround  
and surround back speakers etc. should be the same distance from the main listening position as the front speakers. By  
entering the distance between the listening position and each speaker, the delay times of center, surround and surround back  
speakers, etc. are automatically adjusted to create an ideal listening environment virtually as if the center, surround and  
surround back speakers, etc. were at their ideal locations respectively.

HDMI audio > DIGITAL audio > ANALOG audio  
HDMI : The signal that is input into the HDMI IN is always played.  
Digital : The signal that is input into the OPTICAL or the COAXIAL DIGITAL IN is always played.  
Analog : The signal that is input into the analog AUDIO INs is always played.  
When selecting the Video Scaling  
• You should set the resolution of video signals to be output from the HDMI MONITOR OUT to match that of your TV. (For  
details on the resolution compatible with your TV, refer to the operating instructions of your TV.)  
• When the HDMI MONITOR OUT is connected to an HDMI-compatible TV, the TV reports to this unit what resolutions it  
supports. Therefore, if you set the Video Scaling to "Auto", this unit outputs the video signals of the optimum resolution  
acceptable for your TV.  
Notes :  
• If the resolutions of the video signals which are output from the HDMI MONITOR OUT and your TV are not matched, the  
picture is not clear, natural or displayed.  
• When 1080/24p video signals are input into the HDMI IN, the Video Scaling is automatically set to “HDMI Bypass”.  
• When the Video Mode is set to “S-Video” or “Composite” and the Video Scaling is set to “HDMI Bypass”, the 576p video  
signals will be output from the HDMI MONITOR OUT.  
• When the Video Scaling is set to “HDMI Bypass” and the video signals are input into the HDMI IN, the momentary OSD cannot  
be displayed via HDMI MONITOR OUT.  
Auto : To convert the video signals being input to the video signals of the highest resolution acceptable for TV and to  
output them from the HDMI MONITOR OUT.  
HDMI Bypass : To output the video signals at the same resolution that they are input, with no conversion.  
480p/576p : To convert the video signals to 480p(NTSC)(or 576p(PAL)) video signals and to output them.  
720p : To convert the video signals to 720p video signals and to output them.  
1080i : To convert the video signals to 1080i video signals and to output them.  
1080p : To convert the video signals to 1080p video signals and to output them.  
When selecting the AV Sync  
• There may be a slight time delay between the video and audio signals in case that some video playback equipments may  
process the video signals later than the audio signals due to signal processing procedure, etc.. Should this happen, you can  
adjust the time delay of audio signals to synchronize the sound with the picture.  
• The time delay can be adjusted within the range of 0 ~ 200 msec.
