The Direct mode shuts down some processing that can affect sound quality, such as the tone control features, so

you can enjoy even better sound quality. The Pure Direct mode shuts down even more processes that affects sound quality, so you get a more faithful reproduction of the original sound. In this case, the speaker calibration made with MCACC is disabled. The display turns off and DIRECT indicator lights when the listening mode is "Direct" or "Pure Direct".

  • According to the audio format, the unit switches to one of the "Dolby D", "Dolby D+", "Dolby TrueHD", "DSD", "DTS", "DTS 96/24", "DTS Express", "DTS-HD HR", "DTS-HD MSTR", "PCM" modes automatically when multi-channel signals are input.
  • Listening modes available when headphones are connected are: Pure Direct only.

SURR button (c)

Press repeatedly to select the desired listening mode from the following types.

Stereo

In this mode, sound is output from the front left and right speakers and subwoofer.

Mono

In this mode, when the input signal is analog or PCM, the left and right speakers output the sound in monaural.

F.S.Surround (Front Stage Surround)

In this mode, you can enjoy a virtual playback of multichannel surround sound even with only two or three speakers. This works by controlling how sounds reach the listener's left and right ears.

- With Dolby Digital and DTS input sources recorded with monaural or multiplex audio, you can select the "Dolby D", "Dolby D+", "DTS", or "DTS-HD MSTR" modes that play the source's format as is.

Troubleshooting

Before starting the procedure

Problems may be solved by simply turning the power on/off or disconnecting/connecting the power cord, which is easier than working on the connection, setting and operating procedure. Try the simple measures on both the unit and the connected device. If the problem is that the video or audio is not output or the HDMI linked operation does not work, disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable may solve it. When reconnecting, be careful not to wind the HDMI cable since if wound the HDMI cable may not fit well. After reconnecting, turn off and on the unit and the connected device.

  • This unit contains a microPC for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in.
  • We are not responsible for reparations for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit's malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

If operation becomes unstable

Try restarting the unit

The issue may be fixed by restarting this unit. After switching this unit to standby, press and hold Ⓧ STANDBY/ON on this unit for 5 or more seconds to restart the unit. (The settings in the unit are maintained.) If restarting the unit doesn't fix the problem, try to disconnect and then connect again the power to the unit and other connected components.

Resetting the unit (this resets the unit settings to the default)

If restarting the unit doesn't fix the problem, resetting the

unit to the status at the time of shipment may solve the problem. Your settings will also be initialized when you reset, so note down your settings before doing the following.

  1. Press on the remote controller, select "System Setup" - "Miscellaneous" - "Load Default" in the Home and press ENTER.
  2. Select "Yes", and then press ENTER.
  3. The unit switches to standby and the settings are reset.

Power

Cannot turn on the unit

  • Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet.
  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it in again.

The unit turns off unexpectedly

  • The unit automatically switches to standby when the "System Setup" - "Hardware" - "Power Management" - "Auto Standby" setting in the Home functions.
  • If "CHECK SP WIRE" appears on the display, the speaker cables may be short-circuited. Make sure bare speaker wires are not touching each other or the back panel of the unit, then turn the unit on again.
  • The protective circuit function may have been activated because the temperature of the unit rose abnormally. If this happens, then the power will continue to turn off after you have turned the unit on again. Make sure the unit has plenty of space for ventilation around it, wait for the unit to cool down sufficiently, and then try turning it on again.

WARNING: If smoke, smell or abnormal noise is produced by the unit, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet immediately and contact the dealer or our company's support.

Audio

  • Make sure that the speaker setup microphone is not still connected.
  • Confirm that the connection between the output jack on the device and the input jack on this unit is correct.
  • Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged.
  • If the MUTING indicator on the display flashes, press on the remote controller to cancel muting.
  • While headphones are connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output from the speakers.
  • When "System Setup" - "Source" - "Audio Select" - "Fixed PCM" in the Home is set to "On", no sound is played when signals other than PCM are input. Change the setting to Off.

Check the following if the above does not fix the problem:

There is no sound from the TV

  • Change the input selector on this unit to the position of the terminal to which the TV is connected.
  • If the TV doesn't support the ARC function, along with connection by HDMI, connect the TV and this unit using a digital optical cable, digital coaxial cable or analog audio cable.

No sound from a connected player

  • Change the input selector on this unit to the position of the terminal to which the player is connected.
  • Check the digital audio output setting on the connected component. On some game consoles, such as those that support DVD, the default setting is OFF.
  • With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

PIONEER SX-S30 - &gt; Before Start &gt; Part Names &gt; Install &gt; Initial Setup &gt; Playback - 1

A speaker produces no sound

  • Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables (+l - ) is correct, and that no bare wires are in contact with the metal part of speaker terminals.
  • Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.
  • Check that the speaker connections have been made correctly. (→P7) Settings for the speaker connection environment need to be made in "1. Full Auto MCACC" in Initial Setup. (→P13)
  • Depending on the source and current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Select another listening mode to see if sound is output.

The subwoofer produces no sound

- When you play source material that contains no information in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

Noise can be heard

  • Using cable ties to bundle RCA cables with power cords, speaker cable, etc. may degrade the audio performance, so refrain from doing it.
  • An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The beginning of audio received via HDMI cannot be heard

- Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio signals, audio output may not start immediately.

Sound suddenly reduces

- When the temperature inside the unit exceeds a certain temperature for extended periods, the volume may be reduced automatically to protect the circuits.

■ Listening Modes

  • To enjoy digital surround playback, such as Dolby Digital, the audio signals need to pass through a connection via HDMI cable, digital coaxial cable or digital optical cable. Audio output should be set to bitstream output on the connected Blu-ray Disc player or other device.
  • Pressi on the remote controller several times to switch the display of this unit to check the input format.

Check the following if the above does not fix the problem:

About DTS signals

  • With media that switches suddenly from DTS to PCM, PCM playback may not start immediately. In such cases, you should stop your player for about 3 seconds and then resume playback.
  • With some CD and LD players, you will not be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the unit. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the unit does not recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.
  • Playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

Video

  • Confirm that the connection between the output jack on the device and the input jack on this unit is correct.
    • Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged.
  • When the TV image is blurry or unclear, power code or connection cables of the unit may have interfered. In that case, keep distance between TV antenna cable and cables of the unit.
    • Make sure the switching of input screens is proper at the

monitor side such as a TV.

Check the following if the above does not fix the problem:

There is no video

- Change the input selector on this unit to the position of the terminal to which the player is connected.

There is no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN terminal

  • To display video from the connected player on the TV while the unit is in standby, you need to enable "System Setup" - "Hardware" - "HDMI" - "HDMI Standby Through" in the Home. Refer to (→P37) for information about HDMI Standby Through.
  • Check if "Resolution Error" is displayed on this unit's display when video input via HDMI IN jack is not displayed. In this case, the TV does not support the resolution of the video input from the player. Change the setting on the player.
  • Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

Images flicker

- It is possible that the resolution of the player is not compatible with the TV's resolution. If you have connected the player to this unit with an HDMI cable, try changing the output resolution on the player. There also may be an improvement if you change the screen mode on the TV.

Video and audio are out of sync

- Video may be delayed relative to audio depending on the settings and connections with your television. To adjust, press on the remote controller, and adjust in "Other" - "Sound Delay" in "AV Adjust".

About HDMI

Compatible Functions

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).

HDMI CEC functionality: By connecting devices and HDMI cables that comply with the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) specification of the HDMI standard, a variety of linked operation become possible between devices. You can enjoy features such as linking input switching with the input selector and players, control volume using the remote controller of the TV, and automatically switching this unit to standby when the TV is turned off. The unit is designed to link with products that comply with the CEC standard, and that linked operation is not always guaranteed with all CEC devices.

ARC (Audio Return Channel): By connection a TV that supports ARC with a single HDMI cable, you can not only output the audio and video from this unit to the TV, but also input the audio from the TV to this unit.

HDMI Standby Through: Even if this unit is in standby, the input signals from AV components are transmitted to the TV.

Deep Color: By connecting devices supporting Deep Color, video signals input from the devices can be reproduced on the TV with even more colors.

x.v.Color™: This technology realizes even more realistic colors by broadening the color gamut.

3D: You can transmit 3D video signals from AV components to the TV.

4K: This unit supports 4K (3840 × 2160p) and 4K SMPTE (4096 × 2160p) video signals.

LipSync: This setting automatically corrects any desynchronization between the video and audio signals based on data from the HDMI LipSync compatible TV.

Supported Audio Formats

2-channel linear PCM: 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit

Multi-channel linear PCM: Maximum 5.1 channels, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit

Bitstream: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio
