Speaker Configuration
Speaker Connection Precautions
The following table indicates the channels you should use
depending on the number of speakers that you have.
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 31) or manually (➔ page 46).
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of between
4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected
speakers is 4 ohms or more, but less than 6 ohms, be sure
to set the minimum speaker impedance to “4ohms”
(➔ page 46). 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 protection circuit
may be activated.

• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
• 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.

Using Dipole Speakers
You can use dipole speakers for the surround and surround back speakers. Dipole
speakers output the same sound in two directions.
Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them to indicate how they should be
positioned. The surround dipole speakers (A) should be positioned so that their arrows
point toward the TV/screen, while the surround back dipole speakers (B) should be
positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers
Important:
• When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the
jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer
(low) terminals.
• Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi-
amping. Refer to your speaker manual.
Bi-amping provides improved bass and treble performance.
When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up
to a 5.1 speaker system in the main room.
Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections as shown
and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the speaker
setting to enable bi-amping (➔ page 46).

■ Audio Return Channel (ARC) function
Audio Return Channel (ARC) function enables an HDMI capable TV to send the audio stream to the HDMI OUT MAIN
of the AV receiver.
• This function can be used when:
– your TV is ARC capable, and
– the TV/CD input selector is selected, and
– “Audio Return Channel” is set to “Auto” (➔ page 59).
Tip
– Set the “HDMI Control(RIHD)” setting to “On” (➔ page 58) for an p-compatible TV.
– Set the “Audio TV Out” setting to “On” (➔ page 59) when the TV is not compatible with p, or the “HDMI
Control(RIHD)” setting to “Off”.
– Set your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player’s HDMI audio output setting to PCM.
Note
• 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.
• As the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” (➔ page 59) to hear from your TV speakers, the sound will also be output from the AV
receiver’s speakers if you adjust the volume of the AV receiver. Similarly, as the “HDMI Control(RIHD)” setting is set to “On”
(➔ page 58) to hear from the speakers of an p-compatible TV, the AV receiver’s speakers will produce sound if you adjust
the volume of the AV receiver, while the TV speakers will be muted. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers from producing sound, you
can either change the settings on the AV receiver or on the TV, or turn down the volume of the AV receiver.

Connect a turntable (MM) that has a built-in phono preamp to TV/CD IN, or connect it to PHONO IN with the phono preamp turned
off. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have a phono preamp, connect it to PHONO IN. If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type
cartridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer to connect to PHONO IN. See your turntable’s
manual for details.
If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the AV receiver’s GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire
may produce an audible hum. If this happens, disconnect it.

When you connect your personal computer to PC IN and select the PC input selector, the video of the personal computer is output
from the HDMI outputs. However, if you have assigned the HDMI inputs to the PC input selector, the AV receiver will output
signals received from the HDMI inputs instead of signals from PC IN. To have the signals output from PC IN, select “- - - - -” for
“PC” in the “HDMI Input” setting (➔ page 45).
• With connection C, you can enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. (To record or listen the audio in Zone 2 as well, use C and

• If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to
the recording VCR without going through the AV receiver,
connect the TV/VCR’s audio and video outputs directly to the
recording VCR’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals
supplied with your TV and VCR for details.
• Video signals connected to composite video inputs can be
recorded only via composite video outputs. For example, if your
TV/VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording
VCR must be connected to a composite video output.

■ What is RDS?
RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by
the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available
in most European countries. Many FM stations use it these
days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can
also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport,
rock, etc.).

Note
• 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 MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup

Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.
Audyssey MultEQ XT offers two ways of measuring: the
“Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ XT
Full Calibration”.
• “Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from
one position to perform the speaker setting only.
• “Audyssey MultEQ XT Full Calibration” uses the
measurement from eight positions to correct room
response in addition to the speaker setting.
The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes
about 20 minutes.
• Audyssey MultEQ XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup
cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

Measurement procedure
To create a listening environment in your home theater
that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ XT takes
measurements at up to eight 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.
Speaker setup microphone
The speaker setting menu appears.
■ First measurement position
Note
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 MultEQ XT uses the measurements from
this position to calculate speaker distance, level,
polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the
subwoofer.
• The on-screen menus appear only on a TV that is connected
to the HDMI OUT MAIN. If your TV is connected to other
video outputs, use the AV receiver’s display when
changing settings.
■ Second−eighth measurement positions
These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places
where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up
to eight positions.

Audyssey DSX™ is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve

Wide channels for the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human
hearing has proven that information from the Wide channels is much more
critical in the presentation of a realistic soundstage than Back Surround
channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX then creates a pair
of Height channels to reproduce the next most important acoustical and
perceptual cues. In addition to these new Wide and Height channels,
Audyssey DSX applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the
blend between the front and surround channels.

THX Audio Setup
THX Loudness Plus
THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control
technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™ and THX
Select2 Plus™ Certified receivers. With THX Loudness
Plus, home theater audiences can now experience the
rich details in a surround mix at any volume level. A
consequence of turning the volume below Reference
Level is that certain sound elements can be lost or
perceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness
Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial shifts that
occur when the volume is reduced by intelligently
adjusting ambient surround channel levels and
frequency response. This enables users experience the
true impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume
setting. THX Loudness Plus is automatically applied
when listening in any THX listening mode. The new
THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games modes are
tailored to apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings
for each type of content.

About HDMI
Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital
interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video
components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With
HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM,
multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).
*1
The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface) , so TVs and displays with
a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays,
resulting in no picture.)
*2
The AV receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) , so only HDCP-compatible components can
display the picture.
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.
Supported Audio Formats
• 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
• Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
• Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD
Master Audio)
Your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.
About Copyright Protection
*2
The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) , a copy-protection system for digital
video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.
*1
*2
*3
DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG in 1999.
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s
designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.
DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this
open industry group’s objective is to address the industry’s requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-
performance PCs and digital displays.
*3
Note
• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by
using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for
audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.
• 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.

Network/USB Features
Connecting to the Network
Network Requirements
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 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.
Internet radio
■ Ethernet Router
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 ISPs
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.
Computer or media server
■ Internet Access (for Internet radio)
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.
Note
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 60).
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 60).
