	6 ~ 16 Ω/ohmsFrom A, B
	12 ~ 16 Ω/ohmsFront A+B
Center	6 - 16 Ω/ohms
Surround
Surround back / ZONE2

Note on speaker impedance

When using speakers with an impedance below the designated value (for example 4 Ω/chms), playing for long periods of time with the volume high could cause the temperature to rise, activating the protection circuit.

When the protection circuit is activated, the output to the speakers is cut off and the power indicator blinks. If this happens, unplug the power cord, wait for the set to cool off and improve ventilation around the unit. Also check the wiring of the input cables and the speaker cables. After doing this, plug the power cord back in and turn the unit's power back on. If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

The analog video to HDMI conversion function

• The AVR-B87's video up-conversion function lets you output analog video input signals (component - 480i/576i, 480p/576p, 1080i or 720p; S-Video and composite video - 480i/576i) to the HDMI monitor output terminal with the original resolution.
• The on screen display signals are output from the HDMI monitor output terminal with a resolution of 480i/576i. Because of this, if the monitor equipped with HDMI terminal is compatible with the 480i/576i resolution, all the signals the AVR-887 handles can be output to the monitor with a single HDMI cable.

• If your monitor is compatible with a resolution of 480i, the set can be used with "Analog to HDMI Convert" at "Setting the HDMI Out Setup" (page 54) set to "ON".
• The resolutions with which the monitor is compatible can be checked using the STATUS button or the ON SCREEN button on the remote control unit.
• It is not possible to down-convert from HDMI input signals to the component, S-Video or composite video monitor output terminals.
• If the monitor equipped with HDMI terminal is not compatible with the 480/576i resolution, connect the player and the AVR-887 using a component cable and set the player's resolution to one which the monitor can handle.
• Video down conversion to the monitor output is only possible when the component video input resolution is 480i (interlaced standard definition video - NTSC format, for North America) or 576i (interlaced standard definition video - PAL format, for Europe and other countries).
• To set the video conversion function to "OFF" (page 54).

☐ On screen display for component video outputs and HDMI output

• When viewing component video signals or HDMI signals via the AVR-887, the on screen display is displayed on the monitor when the "System Setup" operations are performed and when the remote control unit's ON SCREEN button is operated.
• When only component video signals are input to the AVR-887, the characters of the on screen display are not displayed over the picture.

Connecting equipment with HDMI terminals

• A simple 1-cable connection (using a commercially available cable) with a device having an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) terminal allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD-Video and other sources, and the multi-channel sound of DVD-Audio and DVD-Video.
• To provide audio output from AVR-887's audio output terminal, select "Amp" at the "HDMI In Assign". To provide audio output from the TV, select "TV" at the "HDMI In Assign" (page 53).

The AVR-887 is HDMI Ver. 1.1 compatible.

□ Copyright Protection System

To play back the digital video and audio of DVD-Video and DVD-Audio through an HDMI/DVI-D connection, both the connected player and monitor are required to support a copyright protection system called HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection System). HDCP is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the partner equipment.

The AVR-887 supports HDCP. Please see the user's manual of your video display for more information about this.

- If your digital monitor or DVD player only supports DVLD, please obtain and use an HDMI-DVI conversion cable or adaptor, available from your dealer.

NOTE:

• The audio signals on the multi/stereo area of Super Audio CDs are not output. If the Super Audio CD is a hybrid CD, only the audio signals in the CD area are output.
• Use a compatible player to play DVD-Audio discs that are copyright protected by CPPM.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI terminal; however, the AVR-887 cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI terminal.
• The audio signals from the HDMI terminal (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by the equipment that is connected.
• The video signals are not output properly if a device not compatible with HDCP is used.
• Use an HDMI monitor compatible with an HDMI input resolution of 480i or 576i.
• The video signals input from the HDMI input terminals are output to the HDMI monitor with their original resolution, so the image will not be displayed if the resolutions of the input signal and the monitor being used are not matched. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source device (player) to one which the monitor can handle.
• Use a cable including the HDMI logo (HDMI certified product) for connection of the HDMI terminal. Normal playback may not be possible if a cable that does not include the HDMI logo (non-HDMI-certified product) is used.

□ Connections with an HDMI/DVI-D conversion cable (adapter)

• The HDMI video stream signals [video signals] are theoretically compatible with DVI-D. When connecting to a monitor, etc., equipped with DVI-D terminals, it is possible to connect using an HDMI/DVI-D conversion cable, but depending on the combination of devices used the image might not be output.
• When using an HDMI/DVI-D conversion adapter, the image may not be output properly due to poor contact with the connected cable, etc.

Connecting the MULTI ZONE terminals

For instructions on operations using the MULTI ZONE functions (page 42 \~ 44).

ZONE2 out connections

• When the power amplifier is assigned to the ZONE2 output channel at "Power Amp Assignment" in the "System Setup Menu", the surround back pre-out terminals can be used as the ZONE2 pre-out terminals (page 58).
• If another power amplifier or pre-main (integrated) amplifier is connected, the ZONE2 out (variable level) terminals can be used to play a different program source in ZONE2 the same time (page 42).
• When a sold separately room-to-room remote control unit (DENON RC-616, 617 or 618) is wired and connected between the MAIN ZONE and ZONE2, the remote-controllable devices in the MAIN ZONE can be controlled from ZONE2 using the remote control unit.

NOTE:

- For instructions on installation and operation of separately sold devices, refer to the devices' operating instructions.

ZONE2 speaker out connections

• When the power amplifier is assigned to the ZONE2 output channel at "Power Amp Assignment" in the "System Setup Menu", the surround back speaker terminals can be used as the ZONE2 speaker out terminals (page 58).
• The connections diagram below is an example for when the surround back speaker is assigned to the ZONE2 stereo 2 channel.
  In this case, surround back speaker out can not be used for MAIN ZONE.

Basic Operation Basic Operation

Using the DENON original surround modes

The AVR-887 is equipped with a high performance digital signal processor (DSP) that uses digital signal processing to recreate sound fields artificially. One of seven surround modes can be selected according to the program source and parameters can be further adjusted to achieve even more realistic sound fields.

Types of surround modes and their features

5CH/7CH STEREO (NOTE 1)	This mode lets you enjoy stereo sound with seven speakers. The front L (R) channel signals are played from the surround and surround back L (R) channels and only the in-phase component of the L and R channels is played on the center channel.
ROCK ARENA	This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live concert in an arena.
JAZZ CLUB	This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live concert in a club with low ceilings, hard walls and the artist just in front of you.
MONO MOVIE (NOTE 2)	This mode recreates the atmosphere of an expansive sound field for movie sources recorded in monaural.
VIDEO GAME	This mode provides a rich sense of presence for video games.
MATRIX	This mode recreates music sources recorded in stereo with an enhanced sense of expansion.
VIRTUAL	This mode can be used to enjoy surround sound with only front speakers or when using headphones.

NOTE 1: "5CH STEREO" is displayed when "SB CH OUT" is set to "OFF".
NOTE 2: When playing sources recorded in monaural, the sound will be one-sided if signals are only input to one channel (left or right), so input signals to both channels. If you have a source component with only one audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a "Y" adapter cable to split the mono output to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.

- Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable. In this case, try other surround modes, without worrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to your tastes.

About the speakers

Surround back speakers

Sound position directly to the rear can be achieved easily by adding a surround back speaker to a 5.1-channel system. In addition, the acoustic image extending between the sides and the rear is narrowed, thus greatly improving the expression of the surround signals for sounds moving from the sides to the back and from the front to the point directly behind the listening position.

Change of positioning and acoustic Image with 5.1-channel systems

Change of positioning and acoustic image with 6.1-channel systems

In addition to sources recorded in 6.1-channels, the surround effect of conventional 2- to 5.1-channel sources can also be enhanced.

☐ Number of surround back speakers

We recommend using two speakers.

When using dipolar speakers in particular, be sure to use two speakers.

☐ Placement of the surround left and right channels when using surround back speakers

We recommend installing the speakers for the surround "L" and "R" channels a bit forward.

Examples of speaker layouts

Below we introduce examples of speaker layouts. Refer to these to arrange your speakers according to their type and how you want to use them.

[1] Using surround back speaker(s)

① When mainly playing movies

Recommended when your surround speakers are single or 2-way speakers.

Surround

The AVR-887 is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to achieve the same sense of presence as in a movie theater.

Dolby Surround

[1] Dolby Digital

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

A total of 5.1-channels are played: three front channels ("FL", "FR" and "C"), two surround channels ("SL" and "SR") and the "LFE" channel for low frequencies.

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.

A real, overpowering sense of presence is achieved when playing movie sources in AV rooms as well.

[2] 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.

[3] Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIIx 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 optimum for playing games.

□ Sources recorded in Dolby Surround

Sources recorded in Dolby Surround are indicated with the following logo marks.

Dolby Surround support mark: DOLEY SURROUND

Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories. "Dolby", "Pro Logic" and the double-D symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.

DTS Digital Surround

DTS Digital Surround is a digital surround format developed by Digital Theater Systems of the United States.

The number of playback channels and the playing band is the same as for Dolby Digital (5.1-channels).

The compression rate of the audio data when it was recorded on the medium is lower than for Dolby Digital, so there is more information when the data is decoded, resulting in richer, clearer sound quality.

DTS-ES™

DTS-ES is a new surround format developed by Digital Theater Systems.

A sound image and sense of positioning can be achieved by adding a surround back ("SB") channel to the conventional 5.1-channels.

DTS-ESTM Discrete 6.1:

This is the latest format, in which all 6.1-channels, including the "SB" channel, are recorded independently. Since the different channels are independent, the sound can be designed with total freedom.

DTS-ESTM Matrix 6.1:

With this format, the "SB" channel is matrix-encoded and inserted into the "SL" and "SR" channels, then decoded for the "SL", "SR" and "SB" channels upon playback. This achieves a surround sound more faithful to the artist's sound design intentions than with conventional 5.1- or 6.1-channel systems.

DTS NEO:6 surround

This is a matrix decoding technology for 6.1-channel surround playback of 2-channel sources.

The optimum decoding for the type of signal source to be played can be selected. There are two modes.

DTS NEO:6 CINEMA:

This mode is suited for playing movies. It achieves the same type of sound as in a movie theater, even with 2 channels.

DTS NEO:6 MUSIC:

This mode is suited for playing music. A natural sense of expansion is added to the sound field.

DTS 96/24

DTS 96/24 is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems.

The sampling frequency is raised to achieve 5.1-channel playback with high quality sound (sampling frequency: 96 kHz, quantization: 24 bits).
