Connecting to Audio Components
TV
If your CD player is equipped with digital optical
jacks, use of optical cable is preferred. What you
need is just one more optical digital connecting
cable (not supplied). Plug it in the digital input jack
of the receiver and select OPTICAL on the receiver
setting (see details under "Input Signal Setting").
You can enjoy better sound quality brought to you by
the optical cable. When optical cable is used, analog
cables are still needed for recording to tape output.

If you have a SAT receiver DVD player or CD player with a digital output, you can make use of an optical digital cable (not
supplied) or coaxial digital cable (not supplied) to carry the audio portion of the signal and enjoy Dolby Digital sound quality.
One optical or coaxial cable is needed for each SAT receiver, DVD player or CD player. When optical or coaxial cable is used,
the analog audio cables are still needed if recording through a tape or VCR is desired. This receiver provides one optical and
one coaxial digital input for the connection of your components. Please connect your components (e.g. DVD, SAT or CD) to the
appropriate digital inputs and press DIGITAL INPUT to select the corresponding digital input source.
Note: Optical and coax cables carry only the audio portion of the signal. A video connection must also be established for a SAT
receiver and DVD player.

speaker wires at all connection
To ease speaker connections, the speaker wires and the
terminals are color-coded.
• White/Grey Striped (Front Left Speaker),
• Red/Grey Striped (Front Right Speaker),
• Green/Grey Striped (Center Speaker)
• Blue/Grey Striped (Rear Left Speaker).
• Grey/Grey Striped (Rear Right Speaker).
• Purple/Grey Striped (Subwoofer)
Connect the L, R speakers at the back of the speakers to
the corresponding color on the receiver. Do the same for
center (with green/black terminal), rear speaker and the
subwoofer (with purple/black terminal).
Speakers
There are 6 speakers equipped with the unit (2 front, 1
center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer). In order to enjoy good
surround effects, all six speakers need to be
connected to the receiver.
Speaker Polarity
At least two front speakers (left and right) are required.
For better sound quality, Center speaker, rear speakers
and Subwoofer should also be connected. Adding center
and rear speakers will enhance surround effects. Adding
a Subwoofer will increase bass response.
When connecting the speakers, make sure the polarities
(“+” speaker wire to “+” on the receiver) of speaker
wires and terminals are matched. If the wires are
reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass
(“out of phase” effect).
If you want to enjoy the full sound range, use the
subwoofer with the speakers to maintain adequate bass
signal.
Connecting the Subwoofer
Connect the subwoofer with the speaker wire (purple/
black) provided.
This receiver offers a high flexibility for user to use a
large variety of speakers and subwoofer. For more
information please refer to section “Fine Setting of the
Speakers” in “Advanced Sound Control” on page 22.

Alignment
Positioning your speaker
Align the center speaker evenly with (A), or slightly
behind (B), the left and right speakers, but not ahead of
them.
EN
1 Left, Right (Front Speakers)
They carry primarily music and sound effects
2 Center
In surround mode, the center speaker carries much of
the dialogue as well as music and effects. It should be
set between the left and right speakers.
3 Surround (Rear Speakers)
Their overall sound balance should be as close as
possible to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital
to establish an evenly distributed sound field.
4 Subwoofer
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low
bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships, etc.)
which dramatically heightens involvement with the
action on the screen. It is therefore recommended to
connect subwoofers when small speakers are used.
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories
Advanced Setting
Angle
Placing the left and right speakers to form a 45-degree
angle with your favorite viewing position will duplicate
the soundtrack mixer's perspective.
Magnetic shielding
Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set must
be magnetically shielded in order to prevent picture
distortion. Front and center speakers provided with this
unit are magnetically shielded to protect your TV set.
It is not recommended to place the rear speakers near
the TV set.

Height

Advanced Setting
Alternative Surround Placement
Rear wall
If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the
speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or even
towards the sidewalls (C, D). Experiment with placement
until surround sounds seem to envelop you, rather than
coming from behind you.
Location
If possible, place surround speakers to either side of the
listening area, not behind it.
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories
Height
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories
If space permits, install surrounds 2-3 feet above
viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects.
No adjacent walls
Surrounds can go on stands facing each other to
approximate the preferred sidewall mounting (A), or to
the sides or rear of the viewing area aimed upwards. In
the latter case, they can go right on the floor, or
preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on end tables
(B).
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories
Aiming
Aiming surrounds straight across the room, not down at
viewers, helps create a more open, spacious surround
sound field.

Test Tone / Channel balance
Using Headphones
To listen privately through your
audio system, use the PHONES jack
on the receiver. However, make sure
you turn down the volume before
you put on the headphones. Increase
the volume to the desired level after
headphones are in place.
EN
Channel balance
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator
for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels" from
channel to channel, adjust the level controls until each
channel plays at the same loudness level.
Once headphones are connected, “HEADPHONE DOWN
MIX 2 CHANNEL” will scroll on display. This feature
automatically converts multi-channel speaker outputs to
2 channel stereo for your listening pleasure.
Hearing Comfort & Well-Being
• Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous extended play.
• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
volume or discontinue use.
Factory Setting
The unit is preset to the following settings when you
first power the receiver up right out of the box:
Function = TUNER
Courtesy Dolby Laboratories
Volume setting = 25
Bass & treble = 0 dB
EQ = FLAT
Level adjustment & surround channel
level expectation
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as
loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find that on
actual program material the surround channel is usually
much lower than the front. Don't be tempted to
readjust the surround level; program producers use
surround mostly for subtle atmospheric and ambience,
and only rarely for special effects. A good surround mix
doesn't call attention to itself; if it did, it would soon
become distracting.
Speaker settings: Center, surr = YES
Subwoofer = STRONG
DRC = OFF
NOTE
STRONG SUBWOOFER setting makes the
output level of subwoofer speaker to be
stronger than normal Dolby setting. Adjust
the SUBWOOFER setting by pressing the
SUBWOOFER key to achieve the best bass
performance.

Digital Theater Systems (DTS)
Sound Enhancement Systems
This receiver is equipped with several built-in sound
enhancement systems.
EN
DTS is a digital surround system which delivers six
channels of master-quality, 20-bit audio. It offers five
full-range channels plus a special low frequency
effect (LFE) channel for subwoofer, resulting
commonly know 5.1 channels. It can be applied with
existing 5.1 speaker configurations.
Dolby Digital
The Dolby Digital mode lets you enjoy full digital
surround from software processed in the Dolby
Digital format. Dolby Digital provides better sound
quality and more powerful presence than
conventional Dolby Surround.
DTS is available in DVD, SAT/CAB, TV and CD mode.
(When digital cable is connected)
This unit is equipped with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel
so that you can enjoy enhanced full digital surround
sound. Being different from Dolby Pro Logic in which
only four channels ( Front Left, Front Right, Centre
and Rear ) are used, the new system provides stereo
separation of the rear speakers (Rear-Right, Rear-Left
). These 5 channels, together with the subwoofer
channel for bass sounds (counted as 0.1 channel ),
constitute as 5.1-Channel ( or 6 Channels ) Input for
Dolby Digital that brings you the most sophisticated
sound enjoyment.

Dolby Pro Logic II
The Pro Logic II mode uses the built-in circuit to steer
the Left, Center, Right and Surround left and right
channel audio signals and uses all five speakers to play
both stereo and Dolby Pro Logic program source, such
as TV and VCR. Dolby Pro Logic II includes Dolby Pro
Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music and Dolby Pro

The Stereo mode uses the two main channel outputs
from the front speakers. Use this mode if you have
connected the front speakers only.
With “Dynamic Bass Amplified System” (dBas), the
discrete amplifier is located in the receiver so the
subwoofer keeps the power needed to reproduce

4 settings are available: SOFT, BALANCED, STRONG and
POWERFUL.
Press the SUBWOOFER button to toggle the subwoofer
(dBas) effects level according to your needs.
DSP (Digital Sound Processor)
These digital sound effects resemble sounds in a real
environment such as (DISCO / STADIUM / THEATER / JAZZ
CLUB / ARENA). DSP automatically converts analog audio
signals to digital ones which enables you to adjust the
sound without degrading the sound quality. Different
modes will give you different feels of size and types of
listening environment.
