Placement

Place Your Speakers

Determine the locations for your system's speakers according to their manufacturer's directions and the layout of your listening room. Use the illustration below as a guide for 5.1-channel systems.

To create the most realistic surround-sound environment possible, you should place your speakers in a circle with the listening position at its center. You should angle each speaker so it directly faces the listening position. Use the diagram below as a guide.

TV C FL 30° 30° FR 110° 110° SL SR SUB

Placing the Left, Center and Right Speakers

Place the center speaker either on top of, below or mounted on the wall above or below the TV or video-display screen. Place the front left and right speakers along the circle, about 30 degrees from the center speaker and angled toward the listener.

Place the front left, front right and center speakers at the same height, preferably at about the same height as the listener's ears. The center speaker should be no more than 2 feet (0.6m) above or below the left/right speakers. If you're using only two speakers with your AVR, place them in the front left and front right positions.

Placing the Surround Speakers

You should place the left and right surround speakers approximately 110 degrees from the center speaker, slightly behind and angled toward the listener.

Alternatively, you can place them behind the listener, with each surround speaker facing the opposite-side front speaker. You should place the surround speakers 2 feet - 6 feet (0.6m - 1.8m) higher than the listener's ears.

Placing the Subwoofer

Because a room's shape and volume can have a dramatic effect on a subwoofer's performance, it is best to experiment with placement so that you will find the location that produces the best results in your particular listening room. With that in mind, these rules will help you get started:

• Placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the amount of bass in the room.
• Placing the subwoofer in a corner generally will maximize the amount of bass in the room.
• In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the left and right speakers can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the left and right speakers.
• In some rooms, the best performance could even result from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position. A good way to determine the best location for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be placed), and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that location.

Connections

Caution

- Before making any connections to the audio/video receiver, ensure that the AVR's AC cord is unplugged from the AVR and the AC outlet. Making connections with the AVR plugged in and turned on could damage the speakers.

Connect Your Speakers

How to use the AVR's speaker terminals

1

Unscrew Cap

2

Insert Bare Wire

3

Tighten Cap

Always connect the colored (+) terminal on the AVR to the (+) terminal on the speaker (usually red), and the black (−) terminal on the AVR to the (−) terminal on the speaker (usually black).

Note

- The AVR's on-screen display (OSD) only appears through the Composite Monitor Out connector. If you want to use the AVR's OSD menus you need to connect its Composite Monitor Out connector to your TV even if you are not connecting any composite video source devices to the AVR.

Connect Your Audio and Video Source Devices

Source devices are components where a playback signal originates, e.g., a Blu-ray Disc™ or DVD player; a cable, satellite or HDTV tuner; etc. Your AVR has several different types of input connectors for your audio and video source devices: HDMI, composite video, optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio and analog audio.

Each of your AVR's source buttons is assigned to an analog audio input connector.

The digital inputs are not assigned to any specific sets of analog inputs. Once you select a source device you can use the remote control's DIGITAL button to select the specific audio input connection (HDMI, coaxial digital, optical digital, analog) that you want to listen to. (Note: You cannot select an audio input connection for the FM/AM or USB source buttons.)

As you connect your various source components, fill out the "Source Device Connected" and "Digital Audio Input Connector Used" columns in the following table. it will make it easy to keep track of which devices you have connected to which connectors.

HDMI Devices

If any of your source devices have HDMI connectors, using those connectors will provide the best possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable carries both digital video and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio connections for devices you connect via HDMI cables.

If you have a TV equipped with the HDMI Audio Return Channel function, its sound is fed to the AVR via the HDMI Monitor Out connection's Audio Return Channel, and it will not require additional audio connections to the AVR.

Video Troubleshooting Tips

If there is no picture:

- Check the source selection.

• Check all connections for a loose or incorrect connection.
• Check the video-input selection on the TV/display device.

Additional Tips for Troubleshooting HDMI Connections

• Turn off all devices (including the TV, the AVR and any source components).
• Unplug the HDMI cables, starting with the cable between the AVR and the TV, and continuing with the cables between the AVR and each source device.
• Carefully reconnect the cables from the source devices to the AVR. Connect the cable from the AVR to the TV last.
• Turn on the devices in this order: TV, AVR, source devices.

Note

- Depending upon the particular components involved, the complexity of the required communication between HDMI components may cause delays of up to a minute in the completion of some actions, such as input switching or switching between SD and HD channels.

Listening to FM and AM Radio

Select the AM/FM source. Use the Tuning Up/Down buttons to tune a station, which will be shown on the front-panel display. For automatic tuning, press and hold the Tuning Up/Down buttons to scan stations until a station with acceptable signal strength is found. For manual tuning, press each Tuning button until the desired station is found. Using the FM Mono mode may improve the reception of weaker stations.

Preset Stations

A total of 30 stations (AM and FM combined) may be stored as presets. When the desired station has been tuned in, press the Memory button and the preset number will flash on the front-panel Message display. Use the remote's Number buttons to enter the desired preset number.

To tune a preset station, press the Preset Up/Down buttons or enter the preset number using the remote's Number buttons.

RDS

RDS(Radio Data System) is a method for sending information signals together with the transmitter signals. These codes contain Program Service name (PS), A list of Program Types (PTY), Radio Text (RT).

Note

• RDS is available only in models that are distributed in Europe.
  • RDS is only possible in the FM band.
• RDS searches for the preset stations only. If no stations have been stored in the memory, or if the program type could not be found among the preset stations, "NO PTY" is displayed.

Listening to Media on a USB Device

Your AVR is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 media in the FAT 16 or FAT 32 file format and is compatible with the following MP3 and WMA media:

• MP3: Bit rates between 96 – 320kbps. Fixed bit-rates at 44.1kHz sampling is recommended. Variable bit-rates (VBR) are playable, but playing time may be displayed incorrectly. Files must have a “.mp3” file extension.
• WMA: Bit rates of 64kbps or higher. NOTE: Bit rates of 80kbps and 256kbps are not compatible. Files must have a ".wma" file extension.

A maximum number of 65,536 folders and files can be supported.

Digital surround-sound modes, such as Dolby Digital and DTS systems, are available only with specially encoded programs, such as those available via HDTV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc media and digital cable or satellite television. Other surround modes such as Dolby Pro Logic II may be used with digital or analog signals to create a different surround presentation or to use a different number of speakers.

Surround mode selection depends upon the number of speakers in your system, the programs you are watching or listening to, and your personal tastes.

Advanced Functions

Much of the adjusting and configuration your AVR requires is handled automatically, with little intervention required on your part. You can also customize your AVR to suit your system and your tastes. In this section, we will describe some of the more advanced adjustments available to you.

Audio Processing and Surround Sound

Audio signals can be encoded in a variety of formats that affect not only the quality of the sound but also the number of speaker channels and the surround mode. You may also manually select a different surround mode, when available.

Analog Audio Signals

Analog audio signals usually consist of two channels – left and right. Your AVR offers several options for analog playback:

• Stereo: When you want conventional 2-channel playback, press the STEREO button. Sound will be output from the front left and right speakers.
• 5-Ch Stereo: When you want to hear stereo sound through all of the system's speakers (such as during a party), select 5CH STEREO via the Surround Mode Select buttons. This plays the left-channel signal through the front left and surround left speakers, the right-channel signal through the front right and surround right speakers, and a summed mono signal through the center speaker.
• Analog Surround Modes: Your AVR is able to process 2-channel audio signals to produce multi-channel surround sound, even when no surround sound has been encoded in the recording. Among the available modes are Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS Neo: 6, Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club and Arena modes. Use the Surround Mode Select buttons to select one of these modes.

Digital Audio Signals

Digital audio signals offer greater flexibility and capacity than analog signals and allow the encoding of up to 5.1 channels of discrete channel information directly into the signal. The result is improved sound quality and startling directionality, since each channel's information is transmitted independently of the other channels. High-resolution recordings sound extraordinarily distortion-free, especially in the high frequencies.

Digital surround-sound formats include Dolby Digital 2.0 (two channels only), Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High-Resolution Audio, DTS-HD, DTS 5.1, DTS 96/24, 2-channel PCM modes in 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.1kHz, 96kHz or 176.4kHz, and 5.1 or 7.1 multichannel PCM. (Your AVR will downmix the discrete surround back-

channel information in 6.1-channel and 7.1-channel recordings into your system's surround left and surround right channels.)

Surround Mode Selection

Surround-mode selection depends upon the format of the incoming audio signal as well as your personal taste. Although there is never a time when all of the AVR's surround modes are available, the table below indicates which surround modes are available for a given input.

Input Signal Format	Available Surround Modes
Dolby TrueHD(Only for R- 607),Dolby Digital Plus (Only for R- 607),Dolby Digital(7.1-channel/5.1-channel)	Corresponding Dolby TrueHD(Only for R-607) or Dolby Digital mode (Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club, Arena and 5-Ch Stereo are also available for 5.1-channel programs)
Dolby Digital(2.0-channel)	Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Game, Dolby Pro Logic
DTS-HD (Only for R- 607),DTS, DTS 96/24	Corresponding DTS Mode(Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club, Arena and 5-Ch Stereo are also available for 5.1-channel programs)
PCM(2-channel),Analog(2-channel)	Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Game, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS Neo:6 Music, Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club, Arena, 5-Ch Stereo
MP3/WMA	Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Game, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS Neo:6 Music, Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club, Arena, 5-Ch Stereo

When in doubt, check the broadcast or the jacket of your disc for more information on which surround modes are available. Usually, nonessential sections of a disc, such as trailers, extra materials or the disc menu, are available only in Dolby Digital 2.0 (2-channel) or PCM 2-channel mode. Look for an audio setup section in the disc's menu.

Also, make sure your disc player's audio output is set to the original bitstream rather than 2-channel PCM. Stop play and check the player's output setting.

Adjusting the Channel Volumes

In addition to using the AVR's built-in test noise to configure the AVR for your speakers as explained in Configure the AVR for Your Speakers, you can also adjust the volume of any channel at any time to compensate for individual program sources or your personal taste.

1 Press the remote's Channel Level button. The Message Display will show the left channel volume level.
2 Use the remote's up and down arrow buttons to display the channel you want to adjust.
3 Use the remote's left and right arrow buttons to adjust the channel's volume.

Press the RETURN button when you're finished.

Recording

Two-channel analog audio signals, as well as composite video signals, are normally available at the appropriate recording output connectors. To make a recording, connect your audio or video recorder to the appropriate AVR output connectors as described in the Making Connections section, insert blank media in the recorder and make sure the recorder is turned on and recording while the source is playing. Refer to the recording device's instructions for complete information about making recordings.

Note

• The AVR does not convert digital signals to analog. Only devices connected to the analog audio and composite video input connections can be recorded.
• HDMI video sources are not available for recording.
• Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright restrictions on any material you record. Unauthorized duplication of copyrighted materials is prohibited by law.

Sleep Timer

The sleep timer sets the AVR to play for up to 90 minutes and then turn off automatically. Press the Sleep button on the remote, and the time until turn-off will be displayed on the front-panel Message display The available settings are 30 min., 60 min., 90 min. and OFF.

When the sleep timer has been set, a small crescent-moon icon will appear on the front-panel display.

If you press the SLEEP button after the timer has been set, the remaining play time will be displayed. Press the SLEEP button again to change the play time.

Processor Reset

If the AVR behaves erratically after a power surge, first turn off the front-panel Main Power switch and unplug the AC power cord for at least 3 minutes. Plug the cord back in and turn the AVR on. If this procedure doesn't help, reset the AVR's processor as described below.

Note

- Resetting the processor will erase all user configurations, including speaker and level settings, and tuner presets. After a reset, reenter all of these settings from your notes in the Appendix worksheets.

To reset the AVR's processor:

1 Press the front-panel Standby/On switch to place the unit in the Standby mode (the Standby Indicator LED will turn red).
2 Press and hold the SURROUND down button on the remote control as pressing and holding the front-panel Standby/On switch simultaneously.
3 When the RESET message "RESET?" appears on the front-panel Message display, press BAND.
4 When the RESET message "OK?" appears on the front-panel Message display, press BAND.

Memory

If the AVR is unplugged or experiences a power outage, it will retain your user settings for up to two weeks.

Troubleshooting

If you experience any of the following difficulties while using the system, use this troubleshooting guide to help remedy the problem before requesting servicing. Should any problem persist, consult your nearest authorized dealer or authorized independent company.
