Speaker connection

Install speakers and connect them to this unit (page 21, 24).

Speaker installation

Determine the speaker system depending on the number of speakers you are using and install each speaker and subwoofer in the room. Here, we explain how to install the speakers using a typical example.

FHLFHR FLFR FWLFWRSW1 SW2 C SLSR SBLSEBSBR

FL/FR : Place the FRONT left and right speakers an equal distance from the main listening position. The distance between each speaker and your TV should also be the same.

C : Place the CENTER speaker in between the front speakers and above or below your TV.

SL/SR : Place the SURROUND left and right speakers an equal distance to the left and right sides of the main listening position. If you don't have Surround Back speakers, move the surround speakers slightly behind your listening position.

SBL/SBR (SB) : Place the SURROUND BACK left and right speakers an equal distance from the main listening position and directly behind the main listening position. If you only have one Surround Back speaker, center it.

FHL/FHR : Place the FRONT HEIGHT left and right speakers just outside of the front left and right speakers. Mount them as close to the ceiling as possible and aim them towards the main listening position.

FWL/FWR : Place the FRONT WIDE left and right speakers outside of the front left and right speakers so that there is an equal distance between all front speakers.

SW: Place the SUBWOOFER at a convenient location near the front speakers. If you have two subwoofers, place them symmetrically across the front of your room.

Speaker connection

Here we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.

This section explains how to connect them using typical examples.

NOTE

• Disconnect this unit's power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers. Also, turn off the subwoofer.
• Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and - sides touch each other (1 page 218 "Protection circuit").
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord is connected. Doing so could result in electric shock. When the "Setup Assistant" is running, follow the instructions in the "Setup Assistant" screen for making connections. (Power is not supplied to the speaker terminals while the "Setup Assistant" is running.)
• Use speakers with an impedance of 6 – 16 Ω/ohms.

■ Connecting the speaker cables

Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and - (black) polarities on the speakers being connected to this unit, and be sure to connect the channels and polarities correctly.

1 Peel off about 3/8 inch (10 mm) of sheathing from the tip of the speaker cable, then either twist the core wire tightly or terminate it.
2 Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise to loosen it.
3 Insert the speaker cable's core wire to the hilt into the speaker terminal.
4 Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to tighten it.

■ About the Bi-amp connection

Some audiophile loudspeakers can be connected to an amplifier with two separate amp-to-speaker connections per each speaker. One amplifier channel's output is hooked up to the speaker's bass driver (woofer), while the other amplifier drives the upper range transducers (tweeter, or in some cases midrange and tweeter). This connection method has one amplifier channel driving one half of the bi-amp speaker, and avoids electrical interference between the speaker's bass and treble drivers and the driving amplifier channels. You can assign 4 amp channels to connect to one pair of bi-amp capable speakers. Bi-amp capable speakers always have two sets of speaker input connector pairs, one for the bass range and one for the treble range. If you're unsure about whether or not your speakers are bi-amp capable, consult the owner's manual that came with the speakers.

- For how to connect the front, center, and surround speaker and the subwoofer to this unit, see "Connecting 7.1-channel speakers using surround back speakers" (page 27).

Audyssey

Set Audyssey MultEQ ^® XT, Audyssey Dynamic EQ ^® and Audyssey Dynamic Volume ^® . These can be selected after Audyssey ^® Setup has been performed. For additional information on Audyssey technology, please see page 213.

• "MultEQ" XT", "Dynamic EQ" and "Dynamic Volume" settings are stored for each input source.
• "MultEQ® XT", "Dynamic EQ" and "Dynamic Volume" cannot be set when the sound mode is set to "DIRECT" or "PURE DIRECT".

■ Mult®OXT

MultEQ ^® XT compensates for both time and frequency characteristics of the listening area based on Audyssey ^® Setup measurement results. Selection is done from three types of compensation curves. We recommend the "Audyssey" setting.

Audyssey (Default) : Optimize the frequency response of all speakers

Audyssey Byp. L/R: Optimize frequency response of speakers except front L and R speakers.

Audyssey Flat : Optimize frequency response of all speakers to flat response.

Graphic EQ : Apply frequency response set with "Graphic EQ" (page 142).

Off : Turn "MultEQ" XT" equalizer off.

- When using headphones, "MultEQ® XT" is automatically set to "Off".

■ Dynamic EQ

Solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Works with MultEQ ^® XT.

■ Reference Level Offset

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. 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. Recommended setting levels are shown at below.

0dB (Film Ref) (Default): This is the default setting and should be used when listening to movies.

5dB : Select this setting for content that has a very wide dynamic range, such as classical music.
10dB : Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a wider dynamic range. This setting should also be selected for TV content as that is usually mixed at 10 dB below film reference.
15dB : Select this setting for pop/rock music or other program material that is mixed at very high listening levels and has a compressed dynamic range.

- Setting is enabled when "Dynamic EQ" (1 page 139) is "On".

■ Dynamic Volume

Solves the problem of large variations in volume level between TV, movies and other content (between quiet passages and loud passages, etc.) by automatically adjusting to the user's preferred volume setting.

Heavy : Most adjustment to softest and loudest sounds.

Medium : Medium adjustment to loudest and softest sound.

Light: Least adjustment to loudest and softest sounds.

Off (Default) : Do not use "Dynamic Volume".

- If "Dynamic Volume" is set to "Yes" in "Audyssey ^0 Setup" (page 153), the setting is automatically changed to "Medium".

Audyssey D9X

Provides more immersive surround sound by adding the new channels.

On : Turns on Audyssey DSX® processing for wide or height expansion.

Off (Default) : Do not set Audyssey DSX ^® .

• "Audyssey DSX ^® " can be set when you are using front height speakers or front wide speakers.
• "Audyssey DSX®" is only valid when using a center speaker.
• "Audyssey DSX®" is valid when sound mode is DOLBY sound mode or DTS sound mode other than PLIIz Height and DTS NEO:X.
• "Audyssey DSX ^5 " cannot be configured if the HD Audio source being played includes Front height and Front wide channels. In this case, the respective channels are played back using the input signals.

About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (A-DSX)

Audyssey DSX ^® is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve surround impression. Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX ^® first adds 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 the 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.

■ Stage Width

Adjust sound stage width when using front wide speakers.

-10 - +10 (Default : 0)

Speakers

The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called "Audyssey® Setup".

You do not have to perform Audyssey® Setup when you have already performed Speaker Calibration in Setup Assistant.

To set up the speakers manually, use "Manual Setup" (page 162) on the menu.

Audyssey® Setup

To perform measurement, place the Setup and measurement microphone in multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration (up to eight positions).

- When performing Audyssey ^ Setup, Audyssey MultEQ ^ XT/Audyssey Dynamic EQ ^ /Audyssey Dynamic Volume ^ functions become active (1 page 139, 140).

NOTE

• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows and turn off the power on electronic devices (TVs, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, etc.). The measurements could be affected by the sounds emitted by such devices.
• During the measurement process, place cell phones outside the listening room. Cell phone signals could disrupt the measurements.
• Do not stand between the speakers and Setup and measurement microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. Do not hold the Setup and measurement microphone in your hand during measurements. This will cause inaccurate readings.
• During the measurement process, audible test tones will come from the speakers and subwoofer(s), but this is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in the room, these test signals will increase in volume.
• Operating VOLUME ▲▼ on the remote control unit or MASTER VOLUME on the main unit during the measurements will cancel the measurements.
• Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are connected. Unplug the headphones before performing Audyssey® Setup.

■ About Setup and measurement microphone placement

• Measurements are performed by placing the Setup and measurement microphone successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening area, as shown in [Example ①].
• Even if the listening environment is small as shown in [Example ②], measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environment results in more effective correction.

■ About the main listening position (\*M)

The main listening position is the position where listeners would normally sit or where one would normally sit alone within the listening environment. Before starting Audyssey ^® Setup, place the Setup and measurement microphone in the main listening position. Audyssey MultEQ ^® XT uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

Tips

I want the volume not to become too loud by mistake.

- Set the volume upper limit for "Volume Limit" in the menu beforehand. This prevents children or others from increasing the volume too much by mistake. You can set this for each zone (1 page 138, 173).

I want to keep the volume at the same level when I turn the power on.

- By default, the volume setting when power was previously set to standby is applied at next power on. To use a fixed volume level, set the volume level at power on for "Volume Limit" in the menu. You can set this for each zone (page 138, 173).

I want to have the subwoofer always output audio.

- Depending on the input signals and sound mode, the subwoofer may not output audio.

When "Subwoofer Mode" in the menu is set to "LFE+Main", you can have the subwoofer always output audio (page 167).

I want to make human voices in the movies clearer.

- Use "Dialog Level" in the menu to adjust the level (page 133).

I want to keep bass and clarity during playback at a lower volume level.

- Set "Dynamic EQ" in the menu to "On". This setting corrects the frequency characteristics to allow you to enjoy clear sound without the bass being lost even during playback at a lower volume level (page 139).

I want to automatically adjust the volume level difference in content such as TV and movies.

- Set "Dynamic Volume" in the menu. Volume level changes (between quiet scenes and loud scenes) in TV shows or movies are automatically adjusted to your desired level (page 140).

I want to set the optimized listening environment after changing the configuration/position of the speakers or changing a speaker to a new one.

- Perform Audyssey® Setup. This automatically makes the optimized speaker settings for the new listening environment (page 153).

I want to combine a desired video with the current music.

- Set "Video Select" in the option menu to "On". You can combine the current music with your desired video source from Set-top Box or DVD, etc. while listening to music from Tuner, CD or the Internet radio (page 98).

I want to play back photos from Flickr at the same time while listening to the Internet radio.

- After playing back photos from Flickr, start the slide show on the Internet radio playback screen (page 97).

I want to delete unused input sources.

- Set unused input sources for "Hide Sources" in the menu. This allows you to skip unused input sources when rotating the SOURCE SELECT knob on this unit (page 151).

I want to enjoy the same music in all zones at the home party, etc.

- Set "All Zone Stereo" in the option menu to "On". This allows you to simultaneously play back in ZONE2 the music that is played back in MAIN ZONE (page 100).

I want to minimize the delay in video signals when I'm playing a game on my game console.

- When the video is delayed against button operations with the controller on the game console, set "Video Mode" in the menu to "Game" (page 146).

How to add Wi-Fi to the AV receiver?

- Connect a wireless LAN converter (sold separately) to the NETWORK connector on this unit.

About HDMI

HDMI is an abbreviation of High-Definition Multimedia Interface, which is an AV digital interface that can be connected to a TV or amplifier.

With the HDMI connection, high definition video and high quality audio formats adopted by Blu-ray disc players (Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, DTS-HD Master Audio) can be transmitted, which is not possible with the analog video transmission.

Furthermore, in the HDMI connection, audio and video signals can be transmitted through a single HDMI cable, while in conventional connections it is necessary to provide audio and video cables separately for connection between devices.

This allows you to simplify the wiring configuration that tends to be quite complex in a home theater system.

This unit supports the following HDMI functions.

- Deep Color

An imaging technology supported by HDMI. Unlike RGB or YCbCr, which uses 8 bits (256 shades) per color, it can use 10 bits (1024 shades), 12 bits (4096 shades), or 16 bits (65536 shades) to produce colors in higher definition. Both devices linked via HDMI must support Deep Color.

- "x.v.Color"

This function lets HDTVs display colors more accurately. It enables display with natural, vivid colors.

“x.v.Color” is trademark of Sony Corporation.

• 3D

This unit supports input and output of 3D (3 dimensional) video signals of HDMI.

To play back 3D video, you need a TV and player that provide support for the HDMI 3D function and a pair of 3D glasses.

• 4K

This unit supports input and output of 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 pixels) video signals of HDMI.

- Content Type

It automatically makes settings suitable for the video output type (content information).

- Adobe RGB color, Adobe YCC601 color

The color space defined by Adobe Systems Inc. Because it is a wider color space than RGB, it can produce more vivid and natural images.

- sYCC601 color

Each of these color spaces defines a palette of available colors that is larger than the traditional RGB color model.

- Auto Lip Sync

This function can automatically correct delay between the audio and video.

Use a TV that is compatible with the Auto Lip Sync function.

- HDMI pass through

Even when the power to this unit is set to standby, signals input from the HDMI input connector are output to a TV or other device that is connected to the HDMI output connector.

- HDMI control

If you connect the unit and an HDMI control function compatible TV or player with an HDMI cable and then enable the HDMI control function setting on each device, the devices will be able to control each other.

• Power off link
  This unit power off can be linked to the TV power off step.
  • Audio output destination switching
  From the TV, you can switch whether to output audio from the TV or the AV amplifier.
  • Volume adjustment
  You can adjust this unit's volume in the TV volume adjustment operation.
• Input source switching
  You can switch this unit input sources through linkage to TV input switching.
  When playing the player, this unit input source switches to the source for that player.

• ARC (Audio Return Channel)

This function transmits audio signals from the TV to this unit through the HDMI cable and plays back the audio from the TV on this unit based on the HDMI control function. If a TV without the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, video signals of the playback device connected to this unit are transmitted to the TV, but this unit can not play back the audio from the TV. If you want to enjoy surround audio for TV program, a separate audio cable connection is required. In contrast, if a TV with the ARC function is connected via HDMI connections, no audio cable connection is required. Audio signals from the TV can be input to this unit through the HDMI cable between this unit and the TV. This function allows you to enjoy surround playback on this unit for the TV.

Copyright protection system

In order to play back digital video and audio such as BD-Video (Blu-ray Disc) or DVD-Video via HDMI connection, both this unit and TV and the player need to support the copyright protection system known as HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copyright protection technology comprised of data encryption and authentication of the connected AV devices. This unit supports HDCP.

- If a device that does not support HDCP is connected, video and audio are not output correctly. Read the owner's manual of your television or player for more information.

- When connecting this unit to a device that is compatible with the Deep Color, 4K, ARC function, use a "High Speed HDMI cable" or "High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet".

Explanation of terms

A

AirPlay

AirPlay sends (plays) contents recorded in iTunes or on an iPhone/iPod touch/iPad to a compatible device via the network.

ALAC (Apple Lossless Audio Codec)

This is a codec for lossless audio compression method developed by Apple Inc. This codec can be played back on iTunes, iPod or iPhone. Data compressed to approximately 60 – 70 % can be decompressed to exactly the same original data.

App Store

App Store is a site that sells application software for such devices as the iPhone or iPod Touch, and is operated by Apple Inc.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ ^TM

Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Audyssey Dynamic EQ ^® works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ ^® XT to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (A-DSX)

Audyssey DSX ^® is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve surround sound vividness.

Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX ^® first adds 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 the 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.

Audyssey Dynamic Volume ^1

Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Audyssey Dynamic EQ ^30 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.

Audyssey MultEQ ^20 XT

MultEQ ^® XT is a room equalization solution that calibrates any audio system so that it can achieve optimum performance for every listener in a large listening area. Based on several room measurements, MultEQ ^® XT calculates an equalization solution that corrects for both time and frequency response problems in the listening area and also performs a fully automated surround system setup.

DLNA

DLNA and DLNA CERTIFIED are trademarks and/or service marks of Digital Living Network Alliance.

Some contents may not be compatible with other DLNA CERTIFIED® products.

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories.

A total of 5.1-channels are played: 3 front channels ("FL", "FR" and "C"), 2 surround channels ("SL" and "SR") and the "LFE" channel for low frequency effects.

Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic sound field with a “three-dimensional” feeling (sense of distance, movement and positioning) is achieved. This delivers a thrilling surround sound experience in the home.

Dolby Digital EX

Dolby Digital EX is a 6.1-channel surround format from Dolby Laboratories that allows users to enjoy in their homes the "DOLBY DIGITAL SURROUND EX" audio format jointly developed by Dolby Laboratories and Lucasfilm.

The 6.1-channels of sound, including surround back channel, provide improved sound positioning and expansion of the surround sound field.

Dolby Digital Plus

Dolby Digital Plus is an improved Dolby Digital signal format that is compatible with up to 7.1-channels of discrete digital sound and also improves sound quality thanks to extra data bit rate performance. It is upwardly compatible with conventional Dolby Digital, so it offers greater flexibility in response to the source signal and the conditions of the playback device.

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby Laboratories.

Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5-channels to achieve an excellent surround effect.

The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to create a “three-dimensional” sound image offering a rich sense of presence for all stereo sources.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a further improved version of the Dolby Pro Logic II matrix decoding technology.

Audio signals recorded in 2-channels are decoded to achieve a natural sound with up to 7.1-channels.

There are three modes: "Music" suited for playing music, "Cinema" suited for playing movies, and "Game" which is optimized for playing games.

Dolby Pro Logic llz

Dolby Pro Logic IIz introduces a new dimension to Home Entertainment through the addition of a pair of front height channels. Compatible with stereo, 5.1-channel and 7.1-channel content, Dolby Pro Logic IIz provides enhanced spaciousness, depth and dimension to movies, concert video and video game playback while maintaining the full integrity of the source mix.

Dolby Pro Logic IIz identifies and decodes spatial cues that occur naturally in all content, directing this information to the front height channels, complementing the performance of left and right surround sound speakers. Content that is encoded with Dolby Pro Logic IIz height channel information can be even more revealing, with perceptually discrete height channel information bringing an exciting new dimension to home entertainment.
