• When the power amplifier is assigned to "SB+W" (Surround  
Back+Subwoofer), no signals are output from the  
SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack. (For details, refer to "When  
selecting the AMP ASSIGN" on page 37.)  
7. CONNECTING XM (only for North America)  
• Connect the XM terminal to the XM Mini-Tuner system (sold  
separately).  
XM Mini-Tuner system  
• Position the XM Mini-Tuner system near a south-facing  
window to receive the best signal.  
When making connections, also refer to the operating  
instructions of the XM Mini-Tuner system.  
• For the best reception, check the signal strength of the XM radio  
signal with using signal strength display mode, then adjust the  
position of the XM Mini-Tuner system until “GOOD” is displayed.  
(For details, refer to “Displaying XM information” on page 30.)  
• To listen to XM Satellite Radio, refer to “XM Satellite Radio  
(only for North America)” on page 28.  
8. 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 10.  
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the speaker settings  
according to your environment and speaker layout. (For details,  
refer to "SETTING THE SPEAKER SETUP" on page 41.)  
Surround back speakers  
• When using only one surround back speaker, you should  
connect it to SURROUND BACK LEFT channel.  
In this case, you can connect a subwoofer without built-in  
amplifier to the SURROUND BACK RIGHT channel. (For details,  
refer to “When selecting the AMP ASSIGN” on page 37.)  
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

9. SWITCHED AC OUTLETS  
• These outlets are switched on(power-on mode) and  
off(standby mode) according to power control as  
follows(Maximum total capacity is 120 W (1 A)).  
Standby mode - Switched AC outlet off  
Power-on mode - Switched AC outlet on  
10. AC INPUT CORD  
• Plug this cord into a wall AC outlet.  
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.  
7. Surround right speaker  
8. Surround back left speaker  
9. Surround back right speaker  
10. Surround center speaker  
11. Listening position  
1. TV or screen  
2. Front left speaker  
3. Subwoofer  
4. Center speaker  
5. Front right speaker  
6. Surround left speaker  
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.

SURROUND SOUND  
• This receiver incorporates a sophisticated Digital Signal Processor that allows you to create optimum sound quality and sound  
atmosphere in your personal Home Theater.  
Surround modes  
• DTS Neo : 6 Cinema  
DTS Digital Surround  
DTS Digital Surround(also called simply DTS) is a multi-  
This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding is  
performed with emphasis on separation performance to  
achieve the same atmosphere with 2-channel sources as  
with 6.1-channel sources.  
channel digital signal format which can handle higher data  
" include the recording of  
rates. Discs bearing the "  
up to 5.1 channels of digital signals, which can be generally  
thought to provide better sound quality due to the lower audio  
compression required.  
It also provides wide dynamic range and separation, resulting  
in magnificent sound.  
• DTS Neo : 6 Music  
This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The front left  
and front right signals bypass the decoder and are played  
directly so there is no loss of sound quality, and the effect of  
the surround signals from the center, surround left, surround  
right and surround back channels adds a natural sense of  
expansion to the sound field.  
DTS - ES Extended Surround™ (  
)
This is a new multi channel digital signal format which greatly  
improves the 360- degree surround impression and space  
expression thanks to further expanded surround signals, offering  
high compatibility with the conventional DTS format.  
In addition to the 5.1 channels, DTS-ES Extended Surround also  
offers the surround back (sometimes also referred to as  
"surround center") channel for surround playback with a total of  
6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal  
formats with different surround signal recording methods as  
follows:  
DTS 96/24  
Conventional surround formats used sampling frequencies  
of 48 or 44.1 kHz, so 20 kHz was about the maximum  
playback signal frequency. With DTS 96/24, the sampling  
frequency is increased to 96 or 88.2 kHz to achieve a wide  
frequency range of over 40 kHz. In addition, this format has  
a resolution of 24 bits, resulting in the same frequency band  
and dynamic range as 96kHz / 24 bit PCM signals.  
As with conventional DTS surround, DTS 96/24 is  
compatible with a maximum of 5.1 channels. DTS 96/24 is  
fully compatible with the conventional DTS surround format,  
so DTS 96/24 sources can be played using a conventional  
DTS 5.1 channel decoder.  
• DTS-ES™ Discrete 6.1  
Because the signals for 6.1 channels (including the surround back  
channel) are fully independent, it is possible to achieve a sense  
that the acoustic image are moving about freely among the  
background sounds surrounding the listener from 360 degrees.  
Though maximum performance is achieved when sound tracks  
recorded with this system are played using a DTS -ES decoder,  
when played with a conventional DTS decoder, the surround back  
channel signals are automatically downmixed to the surround left  
and surround right channels so that none of the signal  
components are lost.

digital signals, which can reproduce much better sound  
quality, spatial expansion and dynamic range characteristics  
than the previous Dolby Surround effect.  
Because the bit stream format is 100% compatible with  
conventional DTS signals, the effect of the DTS-ES Matrix 6.1  
format can be achieved even with DTS 5.1- channel signal  
sources. Of course, it is possible to play DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 -  
channel signal sources with a DTS 5.1 - channel decoder.  
When DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 or Matrix 6.1 sources are decoded  
with a DTS - ES decoder, the format is automatically detected  
upon decoding and the optimum surround mode is selected.  
However, some DTS - ES Matrix 6.1 sources may be detected  
as DTS sources. In this case, the DTS - ES Matrix mode should  
be selected manually to play these sources.  
Dolby Digital EX  
This mode creates the back (sometimes also referred to as  
"surround center") signals from the surround left and right  
signals in Dolby Digital 5.1 channel source using a matrix  
decoder and provides 6.1 channel surround playback. For  
the best results, this mode should be selected during  
playback of sources(bearing the "  
Dolby Digital EX.  
With this additional channel, you can experience more  
dynamic and realistic moving sound especially.  
When Dolby Digital EX sources are decoded with a Dolby  
Digital EX decoder, the format is automatically detected  
upon decoding and the Dolby Digital EX mode is selected.  
However, some Dolby Digital EX sources may be detected  
as Dolby Digital sources. In this case, the Dolby Digital EX  
mode should be selected manually to play these sources.

DTS Neo : 6™ surround  
This mode applies conventional 2-channel signals such as digital  
PCM or analog stereo signals to the high precision digital matrix  
decoder used for DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 to achieve 6.1-channel  
surround playback. DTS Neo : 6 surround includes two modes for  
selecting the optimum decoding for the signal source.

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 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  
are automatically adjusted to create an ideal listening environment virtually as if the center, surround and surround back  
speakers were at their ideal locations respectively.
