System Connections

• Please be certain that this unit is unplugged from the AC outlet before making any connections.
• Since different components often have different terminal names, carefully read the operating instructions of the component connected.
• Be sure to observe the color coding when connecting audio, video and speaker cords.
• Make connections firmly and correctly. If not, it can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver.

1. CONNECTING ANTENNAS

• Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you get the best reception of your favorite FM stations.

• A 75 outdoor FM antenna may be used to further improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor antenna before replacing it with the outdoor one.

2. CONNECTING AUDIO COMPONENT

• The CD IN jacks can be connected to a CD player, tape deck, etc.

3. CONNECTINGVIDEOCOMPONENTS

The jacks of VIDc 1/VIDc 2 can be connected to a BD player, DVD player, cable TV tuner, satellite system, etc.
- Connect the jacks of VIDEO 2 to the video component in the same way.
- The jacks of AUX can be connected to an additional video component without analog video jacks.

The AUDIO jacks of AUX can be also connected to an additional audio component such as a CD player, tape deck, etc.

• There are two types of video jacks (COMPONENT, (composite) VIDEO) for analog video connections and the HDMI connectors for digital video and audio connections.

Connect them to the corresponding video jacks according to their capability.

• For your reference, the excellence in picture quality is as follows : “HDMI” > “COMPONENT” > “(composite) VIDEO”.
• When making COMPONENT Video connections, connect "Y" to "Y", "PB/CB" to "CB" (or "B-Y", "PB") and "PR/CR" to "CR" (or "R-Y", "PR").
• When viewing video program sources through MONITOR OUT jack, you must use the same type of video jacks that you did connect to video playback components such as BD player, DVD player, cable TV tuner, etc.

Notes :

• You can connect Apple iPod to this receiver via Sherwood iPod dock. If Sherwood iPod dock is connected to DIGILINK-i jack for system control, you should connect its video and audio jacks to the "VIDEO 2" jacks of this receiver. Because, when you control your iPod with the unit's remote control, the VIDEO 2/iPod is automatically selected as an input source and the corresponding operation is performed.
• You can enjoy viewing internet video contents that the VuNow Pod delivers via either the HDMI (given priority) or the (composite) VIDEO MONITOR OUT only, not the COMPONENT MONITOR OUTs.

Continued

■HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) connection : (*1)

• You can connect the source component (BD player, etc.) to the display component (TV, projector, etc.) through this receiver with using a commercially available HDMI cord.
• The HDMI connection can carry uncompressed digital video signals and digital audio signals.
• The HDMI video stream signals (video signals) are theoretically compatible with DVI-D. When connecting to a TV monitor, etc., equipped with DVI-D connector, it is possible to connect using a commercially available HDMI-DVI converter cord. Since the HDMI-to-DVI connection cannot carry any audio signals, set the "HDMI" to "AMP" to hear the HDMI digital audio signals on this receiver. (For details, refer to the "When selecting the "HDMI (HDMI Audio Out)" on page 25.)

Copyright protection system

• This unit supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection), technology to protect copyright of digital video signals against illegal duplication. HDCP must also be supported on the components connected to this unit.
  This unit is HDMI Ver. 1.3 compatible.
• HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI licensing LLC.

Notes :

• For stable signal transfer, we recommend using HDMI cords that are a maximum of 5 meters in length.
• Among the components that support HDMI, some components can control other components via the HDMI connector. However, this unit cannot be controlled by another component via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by the component that is connected.
• The video signals will not be output properly if a component incompatible with HDCP is connected.
• If the resolutions of the video signals which are output from the MONITOR OUTs and your monitor TV are not matched, the picture is not clear, natural or displayed. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source component (DVD player, etc.) to one which the monitor TV can handle. (For details, refer to the operating instructions of the source component.)
• When you want to enjoy only the picture on your TV, not the sound, you should set the "HDMI" to AMP not to output the digital audio signal from the HDMI MONITOR OUT of this receiver. (For details, refer to "When selecting the "HDMI (HDMI Audio Out)" on page 25.)

4. CONNECTING DIGITAL INS

• The OPTICAL and the COAXIAL DIGITAL OUTs of the components that are connected to this unit can be connected to these DIGITAL INs.
• When making the COAXIAL DIGITAL connection, be sure to use a 75 COAXIAL cord, not a conventional AUDIO cord.

Notes :

• Be sure to make either a OPTICAL or a COAXIAL DIGITAL connection on each component. (You don't need to do both.)
• If you connect the DIGITAL INs to your components, you should assign the DIGITAL INs correctly. (For details, refer to "When CD, AUX, VIDEO 1,VIDEO 2("V2/IPOD") is selected as an input source" on page 20.)

5. CONNECTING SUBWOOFER PRE OUT

• To emphasize the deep bass sounds, connect a powered subwoofer.

6. 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.
• When using only one surround back speaker, you should connect it to SURROUND BACK/ROOM2 LEFT channel.
• Because this receiver cannot drive the surround back speakers and the ROOM2 speakers simultaneously, you should assign their power amplifier correctly depending on how to use them. (For details, refer to "CONNECTING ROOM2 SPEAKERS" on page 9 and "When selecting the AMP ASSIGN" on page 48.)
• For installing the speakers, refer to "Speaker placement" on page 9.
• After installing the speakers, first adjust the speaker settings according to your environment and speaker layout. (For details, refer to "SETTING THE ROOM EQ" on page 49.)

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 speakers.
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the AC input cord is connected to the wall AC outlet. Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Connecting speaker wire

1. Strip away approx. 10 mm (3/8 inch) of wire insulation, then twist the wire ends tight.

2. Loosen by turning the speaker terminal counterclockwise.

1. Insert the bare part of the wire.

1. Tighten by turning it clockwise.

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.

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.
