Chapter 2:

5 minute guide

Introduction to home theater

Home theater refers to the use of multiple
audio tracks to create a surround sound effect,
making you feel like you’re in the middle of the
action or concert. The surround sound you get
from a home theater system depends not only
on your speaker setup, but also on the source
and the sound settings of the receiver.

This receiver will automatically decode
multichannel Dolby Digital, DTS, or Dolby
Surround sources according to your speaker
setup. In most cases, you won’t have to make
changes for realistic surround sound, but
other possibilities (like listening to a CD with
multichannel surround sound) are explained in
Listening to your system on page 33.

Listening to Surround Sound

With the following quick setup guide, you
should have your system hooked up for
surround sound in no time at all. In most
cases, you can simply leave the receiver in the
default settings.

• Be sure to complete all connections before
connecting to an AC power source.

1 Connect your TV and Blu-ray Disc player
or DVD player.

See Connecting a TV and Blu-ray Disc player or
DVD player on page 14 to do this. For surround

sound, you’ll want to hook up using a digital
connection from the BD/DVD player to the
receiver.

2 Connect your speakers and place them for
optimal surround sound.

See Connecting the speakers on page 22.
Where you place the speakers will have a big

effect on the sound. Place your speakers as
shown below for the best surround sound
effect. Also see Placing the speakers on page 24
for more on this.

the additional amplifier to the PRE OUT
SURROUND BACK outputs of this unit and
connect the surround back speakers to the
additional amplifier. For details, see Use

the PRE OUT outputs to connect the
surround back speakers on page 23.

3 Plug in and switch on the receiver, followed
by your BD/DVD player, subwoofer and TV.

Make sure you’ve set the video input on your TV
to this receiver. Check the manual that came
with the TV if you don’t know how to do this.

4 Use the on-screen automatic MCACC
setup to set up your system.

See Automatically setting up for surround
sound (MCACC) on page 9 for more on this.

Automatically setting up for
surround sound (MCACC)

The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration
(MCACC) setup measures the acoustic
characteristics of your listening area, taking
into account ambient noise, speaker size and
distance, and tests for both channel delay and
channel level. After you have set up the
microphone provided with your system, the
receiver uses the information from a series of
test tones to optimize the speaker settings and
equalization for your particular room.

Important

• The Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any
existing speaker settings you’ve made.

• Before using the Auto MCACC Setup, the
iPod USB function should not be selected
as an input source.

Caution

• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC
Setup are output at high volume.

Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this
is happening. It may take 1 to 3 minutes.

9 The Auto MCACC Setup has finished!
You return to the System Setup menu.

The settings made in the Auto MCACC Setup
should give you excellent surround sound from
your system, but it is also possible to adjust
these settings manually using the System
Setup menu (starting on page 41).

Note

1 • Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm (5 inches)

will end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Speaker Setting on page 42.

• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be
accurate (taking delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.

Other problems when using the Auto
MCACC Setup

If the room environment is not optimal for the
Auto MCACC Setup (too much background
noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking
the speakers from the microphone) the final
settings may be incorrect. Check for household
appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.),
that may be affecting the environment and
switch them off if necessary. If there are any
instructions showing in the front panel display,
please follow them.

• Some older TVs may interfere with the
operation of the microphone. If this seems
to be happening, switch off the TV when
doing the Auto MCACC Setup.

Better sound using Phase Control

This receiver’s Phase Control feature uses
phase correction measures to make sure your
sound source arrives at the listening position in
phase, preventing unwanted distortion and/or
coloring of the sound (see illustration below).

During multichannel playback, LFE (Low­Frequency Effects) signals as well as low­frequency signals in each channel are
assigned to the subwoofer or other the
subwoofer and the most appropriate speaker.
At least in theory, however, this type of
processing involves a group delay that varies
with frequency, resulting in phase distortion
where the low-frequency sound is delayed or
muffled by the conflict with other channels.

With the Phase Control mode switched on,
this receiver can reproduce powerful bass
sound without deteriorating the quality of the
original sound (see illustration below).

Note

1 Phase matching is a very important factor in achieving proper sound reproduction. If two waveforms are ‘in phase’, they crest

and trough together, resulting in increased amplitude, clarity and presence of the sound signal. If a crest of a wave meets a
trough (as shown in the upper section of the diagram above) then the sound will be ‘out of phase’ and an unreliable sound
image will be produced.

• If your subwoofer has a phase control switch, set it to the plus (+) sign (or 0°). However, the effect you can actually feel when
PHASE CONTROL is set to ON on this receiver depends on the type of your subwoofer. Set your subwoofer to maximize the
effect. It is also recommended you try changing the orientation or the place of your subwoofer.

• Set the built-in lowpass filter switch of your subwoofer to OFF. If this cannot be done on your subwoofer, set the cutoff
frequency to a higher value.

• If the speaker distance is not properly set, you may not have a maximized PHASE CONTROL effect.

• The PHASE CONTROL mode cannot be set to ON in the following cases:
– When the PURE DIRECT mode is switched on.
– When the MULTI IN input is selected.

Making cable connections

Make sure not to bend the cables over the top
of this unit (as shown in the illustration). If this
happens, the magnetic field produced by the
transformers in this unit may cause a
humming noise from the speakers.

Important

• Before making or changing connections,

switch off the power and disconnect the
power cord from the AC outlet.

• Before unplugging the power cord, switch

the power into standby.

About HDMI

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
supports both video and audio on a single
digital connection for use with DVD players,
DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI
was developed to provide the technologies of
High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
in one specification. HDCP is used to protect
digital content transmitted and received by DVI­compliant displays.

HDMI has the capability to support standard,
enhanced, or high-definition video plus
standard to multi-channel surround-sound
audio. HDMI features include uncompressed
digital video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes
per second (with HDTV signals), one connector
(instead of several cables and connectors), and
communication between the AV source and AV
devices such as DTVs.

This receiver is also compatible with the
DeepColor and x.v.Color feature (x.v.Color is
trademarks of Sony Corporation).

HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition
Multimedia Interface are trademarks or
registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing, LLC.

Note

1 • Set the HDMI parameter in Setting the Audio options on page 38 to THRU (THROUGH) and set the input signal in Choosing

the input signal on page 40 to HDMI, if you want to hear HDMI audio output from your TV or flat panel TV (no sound will be

heard from this receiver).

• If the video signal does not appear on your TV or flat panel TV, try adjusting the resolution settings on your component or
display. Note that some components (such as video game units) have resolutions that may not be displayed. In this case, use
a (analog) composite connection.

• The signals input from the analog (composite and component) video inputs of this unit will not be output from the HDMI
OUT.

These cables are the most common type of
video connection and are used to connect to
the composite video terminals. The yellow
plugs distinguish them from cables for audio.

Component video cables

Use component video cables to get the best
possible color reproduction of your video
source. The color signal of the TV is divided
into the luminance (Y) signal and the color (P

R) signals and then output. In this way,

Using the component video jacks

Component video should deliver superior picture quality when compared to composite video. A
further advantage (if your source and TV are both compatible) is progressive-scan video, which
delivers a very stable, flicker-free picture. See the manuals that came with your TV and source
component to check whether they are compatible with progressive-scan video.

speaker system on page 25 for the listening
options with this setup.

You can use speakers with a normal
impedance between 6 and 16 Ω.
However, note that only the front speakers are
set to a value between 12 and 16 if you
select SPAB in Switching the speaker system
on page 25.

Be sure to complete all connections before

the risk of electric shock when connecting
or disconnecting the speaker cables,
disconnect the power cord before touching
any uninsulated parts.

• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is
twisted together and inserted fully into the
speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker
wire touches the back panel it may cause
the power to cut off as a safety measure.

Where you put your speakers in the room has a
big effect on the quality of the sound. The
following guidelines should help you to get the
best sound from your system.

• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor.
Ideally, the other speakers should be at
about ear-level when you’re listening to
them. Putting the speakers on the floor
(except the subwoofer), or mounting them
very high on a wall is not recommended.

• For the best stereo effect, place the front
speakers 2 m to 3 m (6 ft. to 9 ft.) apart, at
equal distance from the TV.

• When placing speakers near the TV, we
recommend using magnetically shielded
speakers to prevent possible interference,
such as discoloration of the picture when
the TV is switched on. If you do not have
magnetically shielded speakers and notice
discoloration of the TV picture, move the
speakers farther away from the TV.

• If you’re using a center speaker, place the
front speakers at a wider angle. If not, place
them at a narrower angle.

• Place the center speaker above or below
the TV so that the sound of the center
channel is localized at the TV screen. Also,
make sure the center speaker does not
cross the line formed by the leading edge
of the front left and right speakers.

• It is best to angle the speakers towards the
listening position. The angle depends on
the size of the room. Use less of an angle
for bigger rooms.

• Surround and surround back speakers
should be positioned 60 cm to 90 cm (2 ft.
to 3 ft.) higher than your ears and titled
slight downward. Make sure the speakers
don’t face each other. For DVD-Audio, the
speakers should be more directly behind
the listener than for home theater playback.

Note

1 • This layout is available only when the additional amplifier is connected to the unit and the surround back speakers are

connected to the amplifier. For details, see Use the PRE OUT outputs to connect the surround back speakers on page 23.

• When the Surround back channel processing is set to SB CH ON (see page 37) in this layout, sound is output from the
surround back speakers even with the use of 5.1ch input signal.

24

En

Connecting up 03

• If the surround speakers cannot be set
directly to the side of the listening position
with a 7.1-channel system, the surround
effect can be enhanced by turning off the
UP Mix function (see Setting the Up Mix
function on page 37).

• Try not to place the surround speakers
farther away from the listening position
than the front and center speakers. Doing
so can weaken the surround sound effect.

Caution

• Make sure that all speakers are securely
installed. This not only improves sound
quality, but also reduces the risk of
damage or injury resulting from speakers
being knocked over or falling in the event of
external shocks such as earthquakes.

Switching the speaker system

Three speaker system settings are possible
using the SPEAKERS button.

Use the SPEAKERS button on the front
panel to select a speaker system setting.

Note

1 The subwoofer output depends on the settings you made in Speaker Setting on page 42. However, if SPB is selected above,

no sound is heard from the subwoofer (the LFE channel is not downmixed).

2 You can use speakers with a normal impedance between 6 and 16 . However, be aware that only the front speakers are set

to a value between 12 and 16 when you select SPAB.
