Connect your speakers to the receiver. This receiver allows you to use a 6 channel speaker with 2 sub
woofer system.
To fully enjoy theater-like multi channel surround sound requires five speakers (two front speakers, a
center speaker, and two surround speakers) and a sub woofer (5.1 channel).
You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of DVD software recorded in the Surround EX format if you
connect one additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel) (see “Selecting the surround back decoding
mode” on page 31).
Example of 6 channel speaker with 2 sub woofer system configuration
Tips
When you connect 6 channel speaker with 2 sub woofer system, place the surround back speaker behind the
listening position.
Since the sub woofer does not emit highly directional signals, you can place it wherever you want.
Note
Connect the long speaker connecting cords to the surround and surround back speaker terminals and the short speaker
connecting cords to the front and center speaker terminals.
Attaching foot pads
To prevent speaker vibration or movement, attach the supplied foot pads to the speaker (except front
speaker) as shown in the illustration below.
Note
Be sure to attach the supplied foot pads to the sub woofer as well.

Installing the speakers on the
wall
You can install your front, surround and
surround back speakers on the wall.
1 Prepare screws (not supplied) that are
suitable for the metal hook on the back
of each speaker. See the illustrations
below.
2 Fasten the screws to the wall. The
screws should protrude 5 to 7 mm.
3 Hang the speakers on the screws.
Notes
Use screws that are suitable for the wall material and
strength. As a plaster board wall is especially fragile,
attach the screws securely to a beam and fasten them
to the wall. Install the speakers on a vertical and flat
wall where reinforcement is applied.
Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the wall
material or screws to be used.
Sony is not responsible for accident or damage
caused by improper installation, insufficient wall
strength or improper screw installation, natural
calamity, etc.

You can use the SPEAKER SET UP menu to set
the distance and location of the speakers
connected to this receiver.
1 Press ?/1 to turn on the receiver.
2 Press MAIN MENU repeatedly to select
“SET UP”.
3 Press or repeatedly to select the
parameter you want to adjust.
For details, see “SPEAKER SET UP menu
parameters” below.
Note
Some speaker setup items may appear dimmed in
the display. This means that they have been
adjusted automatically due to other speaker
settings or may not be adjustable.
4 Press + or – repeatedly to select the
setting you want.
The setting is entered automatically.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have set
all of the items that follow.
SPEAKER SET UP menu
parameters
The initial settings are underlined.
x DIST. X.X m
(Front speaker distance)
Initial setting: 3.0 m
Lets you set the distance from your listening position
to the front speakers (A ). You can adjust from 1.0
meter to 7.0 meters in 0.1 meter steps.
If both front speakers are not placed an equal distance
from your listening position, set the distance to the
closest speaker.
x DIST. X.X m
(Center speaker distance)
Initial setting: 3.0 m
Lets you set the distance from your listening position
to the center speaker. Center speaker distance should
be set from a distance equal to the front speaker
distance (A) to a distance 1.5 meters closer to your
listening position (B).
x DIST. X.X m
(Surround speaker distance)
Initial setting: 3.0 m
Lets you set the distance from your listening position
to the surround speakers. Surround speaker distance
should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker
distance (A) to a distance 4.5 meters closer to your
listening position (C).
If both surround speakers are not placed an equal
distance from your listening position, set the distance
to the closest speaker.
x DIST. X.X m
(Surround back speaker distance)
Initial setting: 3.0 m
Lets you set the distance from your listening position
to the surround back speaker. Surround back speaker
distance should be set from a distance equal to the front
speaker distance (A) to a distance 4.5 meters closer to
your listening position (D).
Tip
The receiver lets you to input the speaker position in
terms of distance. However, it is not possible to set the
center speaker further than the front speakers. Also, the
center speaker cannot be set more than 1.5 meters
closer than the front speakers.
Likewise, the surround speakers cannot be set further
away from the listening position than the front
speakers. And they can be no more than 4.5 meters
closer.
This is because incorrect speaker placement is not
conducive to the enjoyment of surround sound.
Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer than
the actual location of the speakers will cause a delay in
the output of the sound from that speaker. In other
words, the speaker will sound like it is further away.
For example, setting the center speaker distance 1–2
meters closer than the actual speaker position will
create a fairly realistic sensation of being “inside” the
screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory surround
effect because the surround speakers are too close,
setting the surround speaker distance closer (shorter)
than the actual distance will create a larger sound stage.
Adjusting these parameter while listening to the sound
often results in much better surround sound. Give it a
try!

x XXXXXXX
(Sub woofer phase polarity)
Lets you set the sub woofer phase polarity.
NORMAL
Normally, select “NORMAL”.
•REVERSE
Depending on the type of front speakers, the position
of the sub woofer, and the cut-off frequency of the
sub woofer, setting the phase polarity to
“REVERSE” may produce better bass. Besides bass
reproduction, the richness and tightness of the
overall sound may also be affected. While listening
from the main listening position, select the setting
that best suits your environment.
x XXXX/XX
(Surround back speaker position)
Lets you specify the location of your surround back
speakers for proper implementation of the surround
effects in the Cinema Studio EX modes (page 29).
•SIDE/LO
Select if the location of your surround speakers
corresponds to section A and C.
•SIDE/HI
Select if the location of your surround speakers
corresponds to section A and D.
BEHD/LO
Select if the location of your surround speakers
corresponds to section B and C.
BEHD/HI
Select if the location of your surround speakers
corresponds to section B and D.
Tip
Surround speaker position is designed specifically for
implementation of the Cinema Studio EX modes.
For other sound fields, speaker position is not so
critical. Those sound fields were designed under the
premise that the surround speakers would be located
behind the listening position, but presentation remains
fairly consistent even with the surround speakers
positioned at a rather wide angle. However, if the
speakers are pointing toward the listener from the
immediate left and right of the listening position, the
surround effects becomes unclear unless set to
“SIDE/LO” or “SIDE/HI”.
Nevertheless, each listening environment has many
variables, such as wall reflections, and you may obtain
better results using “BEHD/HI” if your speakers are
located high above the listening position, even if they
are to the immediate left and right.
Therefore, although it may result in a setting contrary
to the above explanation, we recommend that you
playback multi channel surround encoded software and
select the setting that provides a good sense of
spaciousness and that best succeeds in forming a
cohesive space between the surround sound from the
surround speakers and the sound of the front speakers.
If you are not sure which sounds best, select
“BEHD/LO” or “BEHD/HI” and then use the speaker
distance parameter and speaker level adjustments to
obtain proper balance.
