5. Preventing Hearing Loss  
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio  
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful  
interference to radio communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular  
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful  
interference to radio or television reception, which can be  
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is  
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more  
of the following measures:  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
• Increase the separation between the equipment and  
receiver.  
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different  
from that to which the receiver is connected.

Speaker Configuration  
The following table indicates the channels you should use  
depending on the number of speakers that you have.  
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered  
subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid  
bass.  
To get the best from your surround sound system, you need  
to set the speaker settings automatically (page 32) or  
manually (page 50).

Connections  
Banana Plugs (North American models)  
• If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker  
terminal before inserting the banana plug.  
• Do not insert the speaker code directly into the center  
hole of the speaker terminal.  
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other  
words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+)  
terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to negative (–)  
terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the  
sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.  
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may  
affect the sound quality and should be avoided.  
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires.  
Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and  
you should attach them to the positive (+) side of each  
speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all  
you need to do is to match the color of each label to the  
corresponding speaker terminal.  
1/3 of wall  
position  
• Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker  
terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.  
• Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.  
To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing  
a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by  
placing your subwoofer at various positions within the  
room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying  
results.  
You can connect the powered subwoofer with two  
SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jacks respectively.  
The same signal is output from each jack.  
Speaker Connection Precautions  
Read the following before connecting your speakers:  
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of between  
6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower  
impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels  
for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection  
circuit may be activated.  
Tip  
• If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external  
amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the  
amplifier.  
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before  
making any connections.  
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

If your TV doesn’t support Audio Return Channel (ARC), you  
need to connect an optical digital cable together with the HDMI  
cable to the AV receiver.  
When listening to an HDMI component through the AV  
receiver, set the HDMI component so that its video can be seen  
on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI  
component connected to the AV receiver). If the TV power is off  
or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no  
sound from the AV receiver or the sound may be cut off.  
Connect your components to the appropriate jacks. The  
default input assignments are shown below.  
Note  
• In the case of Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, if no sound is output  
despite following the above-mentioned procedure, set your Blu-  
ray Disc/DVD player’s HDMI audio settings to PCM.

• Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge  
that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same  
circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different  
branch circuit.  
• Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV  
receiver. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use  
with the AV receiver and should not be used with any other  
equipment.

• Never disconnect the power cord from the AV receiver while the  
other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so may cause  
an electric shock. Always disconnect the power cord from the  
wall outlet first, and then the AV receiver.  
Note  
• Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into a radio station and position the antenna to achieve the best possible  
reception.  
• Keep the AM loop antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.  
Tip  
• If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.  
• If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM  
antenna.

Measurement procedure  
Note  
Using Basic Functions  
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio  
Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room  
measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air  
conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers,  
or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if it is not in use)  
or place it away from all audio electronics.  
• The microphone picks up test tones played through each speaker  
as Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup runs.  
• Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup cannot be  
performed while a pair of headphones is connected.  
To create a listening environment in your home theater that  
all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey 2EQ takes measurements  
at up to three positions within the listening area. Position  
the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the  
microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a  
tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during  
measurements as this will produce inaccurate results.  
Using the Automatic Speaker Setup  
®
With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ  
automatically determines the number of speakers  
connected, their size for purposes of bass management,  
optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if  
present), and distances from the primary listening position.  
Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room  
acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the  
listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The  
result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone.  
a First measurement position  
Also referred to as the Main Listening Position, this  
refers to the most central position where one would  
normally sit within the listening environment.  
Audyssey 2EQ uses the measurements from this  
position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity,  
and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.  
®
Audyssey 2EQ can be used with Audyssey Dynamic EQ  
®
and Audyssey Dynamic Volume (pages 53, 54).  
Before using this function, connect and position all of your  
speakers.  
Audyssey 2EQ offers two ways of measuring: the  
Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey 2EQ Full  
Calibration”.  
b Second measurement position  
The right side of the listening area.  
c Third measurement position  
The left side of the listening area.  
The distances from position ato band ato cmust be  
at least 1 meter (3.3 ft.).  
• “Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from one  
position to perform the speaker setting only.  
• “Audyssey 2EQ Full Calibration” uses the  
measurement from three positions to correct room  
response in addition to the speaker setting.  
The more positions are used in measuring, the better the  
listening environment will become. We recommend using  
a measurement from three positions to create the best  
listening environment.

With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-  
Dimensional listening mode by specifying the angle of the  
front left and right speakers relative to the listening  
position. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be  
equidistant from the listening position and at an angle close  
to one of the two available settings.  
Items can be set individually for each input selector.  
Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating  
sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into  
account human perception and room acoustics. It does so  
by selecting the correct frequency response and surround  
volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content  
sounds the way it was created at any volume level — not  
just at reference level.

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ  
Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of  
deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by  
taking into account human perception and room  
acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency  
response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any  
user-selected volume setting. The result is bass response,  
tonal balance, and surround impression that remain  
constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ  
combines information from incoming source levels with  
actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for  
delivering a loudness correction solution.  
IntelliVolume  
`–12dB to 0dB to +12dB in 1 dB steps.  
With IntelliVolume, you can set the input level for each  
input selector individually. This is useful if one of your  
source components is louder or quieter than the others.  
®
by Audyssey 2EQ will play at reference level when the  
master volume control is set to the 0 dB position. At that  
level you can hear the mix as the mixers heard it.  
Audyssey Dynamic EQ is referenced to the standard film  
mix level. It makes adjustments to maintain the reference  
response and surround envelopment when the volume is  
turned down from 0 dB. However, film reference level is  
not always used in music or other non-film content.  
Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset provides  
three offsets from the film level reference (5 dB, 10 dB,  
and 15 dB) that can be selected when the mix level of the  
content is not within the standard.  
Use e/rto set the level.  
If a component is noticeably louder than the others, use e  
to reduce its input level. If it’s noticeably quieter, use rto  
increase its input level.  
Note  
Audyssey Dynamic EQ works well by itself. However, if  
Audyssey 2EQ is on, the two technologies work in  
tandem to provide well-balanced sound for every listener  
at any volume level.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume  
Note  
Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large  
variations in volume level between television programs,  
commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of  
movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume  
setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of  
program material is being perceived by listeners in real  
time to decide whether an adjustment is needed.  
Whenever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the  
necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the  
desired playback volume level while optimizing the  
dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into  
Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is  
adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response,  
tonal balance, surround impression and dialog clarity  
remain the same whether watching movies, flipping  
between television channels or changing from stereo to  
surround sound content.  
When using progressive scanning on your Blu-ray  
Disc/DVD player, you may find that the picture and sound  
are out of sync. With this setting, you can correct this by  
delaying the audio signals.  
• If “Dynamic EQ” setting is set to “Off”, this technology cannot  
be used.

source selected at the time of setting the AV receiver  
to standby mode.  
Note  
When enabling the HDMI Through function, regardless of  
whether the AV receiver is on or in standby, both audio  
and video streams from an HDMI input will be output to  
the TV or other components via HDMI connection. The  
HDMI indicator will be dimly-lit in standby mode. Note  
that the indicator may not light under certain conditions  
(page 47).  
This setting is fixed to “Auto” automatically when the  
above “HDMI Control(RIHD)” setting is set to “On”,  
resulting in automatic input source selection.  
• If “On” is selected and the audio can be output from the TV, the  
AV receiver will output no sound through its speakers. In this  
case, “TV Speaker” appears on the AV receiver’s display by  
pressing DISPLAY.  
• When “HDMI Control(RIHD)” is set to “On”, this setting is  
fixed to “Auto”.  
Note

• This setting is set to “Auto” automatically when the “HDMI  
Control(RIHD)” setting is set to “On” for the first time.  
• If you set “Audio Return Channel” to “Auto”, the “Audio  
Selector” settings of the TV/CD input selector will be  
automatically switched to “ARC” (page 57).  
• With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be output even  
when this setting is set to “On”.  
• When “Audio TV Out” or HDMI Control(RIHD)” is set to  
Onand you’re listening through your TV’s speakers  
(page 14), turning up the AV receiver’s volume control will  
make the sound be output from the AV receiver’s front left and  
right speakers. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers producing  
sound, change the settings, change your TV’s settings, or turn  
down the AV receiver’s volume.  
After changing the settings of the “HDMI  
Control(RIHD)”, “HDMI Through” or “Audio  
Return Channel”, turn off the power on all connected  
pieces of equipment and then turn them on again. Refer  
to the user’s manuals for all connected pieces of  
equipment.  
Note  
• Only an input source assigned to an HDMI IN via “HDMI Input”  
setting is enabled (page 48).  
• The power consumption in standby mode will increase during the  
HDMI Through function; however in the following cases, the  
power consumption can be saved:  
• Listening mode cannot be changed when this setting is set to

If your router’s DHCP server is enabled, you don’t need to  
change any of these settings, as the AV receiver is set to  
use DHCP to configure itself automatically by default (i.e.,  
DHCP is set to “Enable”). If, however, your router’s  
DHCP server is disabled (you’re for example using static  
IP), you’ll need to configure these settings yourself, in  
which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is  
essential.

DNS Server  
The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain  
names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a  
domain name such as tascam.com in your Web browser,  
before accessing the site, your browser uses DNS to  
translate this into an IP address, in this case 72.3.225.152.

The protection circuit has been activated. Remove the 12  
power cord from the wall outlet immediately. Make  
sure that all speaker cables and input sources are  
properly connected, and leave the AV receiver with  
its power cord disconnected for 1 hour. After that,  
reconnect the power cord and turn the power on. If  
the AV receiver turns off again, unplug the power  
cord and contact the dealer from whom you  
purchased this unit.  
Note that resetting the AV receiver will delete your radio  
presets and custom settings.  
If there’s no sound from a DVD player connected to  
an HDMI IN, check the DVD player’s output  
settings, and be sure to select a supported audio  
format.  
Remote indicator  
Check the digital audio output setting on the  
connected device. On some game consoles, such as  
those that support DVD, the default setting is off.  
Caution: If “CHECK SP WIRE” appears on the AV  
receiver’s display, the speaker cables may be  
shorting.  
With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an  
audio output format from a menu.  
RECEIVER  
If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must  
connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer.  
WARNING  
Make sure that none of the connecting cables are  
bent, twisted, or damaged.  
If smoke, smell or abnormal noise is produced by the AV  
receiver, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet  
immediately and contact the dealer from whom you  
purchased this unit.

About DTS signals  
Only the center speaker produces sound  
When DTS program material ends and the DTS  
bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS

radio station or mono TV program, the sound is  
concentrated in the center speaker.  
listening mode and the dts indicator remains on. This  
is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast  
forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If  
you switch your player from DTS to PCM, you may  
not hear any sound because the AV receiver does not  
switch formats immediately. In such case, you should  
stop your player for about three seconds and then  
resume playback.  
Depending on the input signal, some listening modes 35-39  
cannot be selected.  
Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.  
50  
Can’t select the Pure Audio listening mode  
(European models) The Pure Audio listening mode  
cannot be selected while Zone 2 is on.  
The surround speakers produce no sound  
With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to  
playback DTS material properly even though your  
player is connected to a digital input on the AV  
receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream  
has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate,  
or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver  
doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such  
cases, you may hear noise.  
When the T-D (Theater-Dimensional), Stereo or  
Mono listening mode is selected, the surround  
speakers produce no sound.  
Can’t get 6.1/7.1 playback  
Depending on the number of connected speakers, it is 35-39  
not always possible to select all of the listening  
modes.  
Depending on the source and current listening mode, 35  
not much sound may be produced by the surround  
speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.  
Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.  
50  
Playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast  
forward, or fast reverse function on your player may  
produce a short audible noise. This is not a  
malfunction.  
Check to see if a maximum volume has been set.  
58  
The center speaker produces no sound  
If the volume level of each individual speaker has  
been adjusted to high positive values, then the  
maximum master volume possible may be reduced.  
Note that the individual speaker volume levels are set  
automatically after the Audyssey 2EQ® Room  
Correction and Speaker Setup has been performed.

When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,  
the center speaker produces no sound.  
Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.

The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN  
can’t be heard  
The front high and surround back speakers  
produce no sound  
Since it takes longer to identify the format of an  
HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio  
signals, audio output may not start immediately.  
Noise can be heard  
Depending on the current listening mode, no sound 36  
may be produced by the front high and surround back  
speakers. Select another listening mode.  
Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power  
cords, speaker cables, and the like may degrade the  
audio performance, so refrain from doing it.  
Depending on the sources, the sound produced by the  
front high and surround back speakers may be weak.  
An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try  
repositioning your cables.  
Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.

Important Note Regarding Video Playback  
The AV receiver can upconvert component video and  
composite video sources for display on a TV connected to  
HDMI OUT. However, if the picture quality of the source  
is poor, upconversion may make the picture worse or  
disappear altogether.  
In this case, try the following:  
If the video source is connected to a component  
video input, connect your TV to COMPONENT  
VIDEO OUT.

Signal Selection  
Video Connection Formats  
Connection Tips and  
Video Signal Path  
If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will  
be selected automatically in the following order of priority:  
HDMI, component video, composite video.  
However, for component video only, regardless of whether  
a component video signal is actually present, if a  
component video input is assigned to the input selector,  
that component video input will be selected. And if no  
component video input is assigned to the input selector,  
this will be interpreted as no component video signal being  
present.  
In the Signal Selection Example shown below, video  
signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video  
inputs. However, the HDMI signal is automatically  
selected as the source and the video is output by the HDMI  
outputs.  
Video components can be connected by using any one of  
the following video connection formats: composite video,  
component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best  
picture quality.  
The AV receiver supports several connection formats for  
compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The  
format you choose will depend on the formats supported by  
your components. Use the following sections as a guide.  
Tip  
• To by-pass the upconversion, set the “Picture Mode” setting to  
Direct” (page 56).  
The on-screen menus appear only on a TV that is  
connected to HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to  
other video outputs, use the AV receiver’s display  
when changing settings.  
Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as  
shown, with composite video and component video  
sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output. The  
composite video and component video outputs carry their  
respective input signals as they are.  
When you connect a video component to an HDMI,  
COMPONENT or COMPOSITE input, you must assign  
that input to an input selector (pages 48, 49).

• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be  
restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is  
poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI,  
check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction  
manual for details.  
The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the  
following:  
Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, DeepColor, Lip  
Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High  
Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus,  
DSD and Multichannel PCM.

Appendix  
Note  
Network Requirements  
Network/USB Features  
• To receive Internet radio with the AV receiver, your broadband  
Internet connection must be working and able to access the Web.  
Consult your ISP if you have any problems with your Internet  
connection.  
• The AV receiver uses DHCP to configure its network settings  
automatically. If you want to configure these settings manually,  
see “Network” (page 62).  
The AV receiver does not support PPPoE settings, so if you have  
a PPPoE-type Internet connection, you must use a PPPoE-  
compatible router.  
• Depending on your ISP, you may need to specify a proxy server  
to use Internet radio. If your computer is configured to use a  
proxy server, use the same settings for the AV receiver  
(page 62).  
Ethernet Network  
Connecting to the Network  
For the best results, a 100Base-TX switched Ethernet  
network is recommended. Although it’s possible to play  
music on a computer that’s connected to the network  
wirelessly, playback may be unreliable, so it is  
recommended to use wired connections.  
The following diagram shows how you can connect the AV  
receiver to your home network. In this example, it’s  
connected to a LAN port on a router, which has a 4-port  
100Base-TX switch built-in.  
Ethernet Router  
Internet radio  
A router manages the network, data-routing and supplying  
of IP addresses. Your router must support the following:  
• NAT (Network Address Translation). NAT allows  
several networked computers to access the Internet  
simultaneously via a single Internet connection. The AV  
receiver needs Internet access for Internet radio.  
• DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). DHCP  
supplies IP addresses to the network devices, allowing  
them to configure themselves automatically.  
• A router with a built-in 100Base-TX switch is  
recommended.  
Modem  
Router  
WAN  
LAN  
Some routers have a built-in modem, and some Internet  
Service Providers (ISP) require you to use specific routers.  
Please consult your ISP or computer dealer if you’re  
unsure.  
CAT5 Ethernet cable  
Use a shielded CAT5 Ethernet cable (straight-type) to  
connect the AV receiver to your home network.  
Internet Access (for Internet radio)  
Computer or media server  
To receive Internet radio, your Ethernet network must have  
Internet access. A narrowband Internet connection (e.g.,  
56K modem, ISDN) will not provide satisfactory results,  
so a broadband connection is strongly recommended (e.g.,  
cable modem, xDSL modem, etc). Please consult your ISP  
or computer dealer if you’re unsure.
