Tip

TO prevent speaker vibration or movement while

listening, attach tile supplied foot pads at the boltom

of file speake]_.

Notes

• Connect the long speaker connecting cords to the

surround speaker terminals and the short speaker

connoting cords m the front and cemer speaker

lerminals.

• Twist the stripped ends of the speaker cords _bout

10 mm (2/3 inch). Be sure to match the speaker

cord Io the appropriale telallinal oll the components:

+ to + and - to -. If the cords are reversed, the

sound will be distorted and will lack bass.

• If you use speakers with low maximum input rating,

adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive

output on the speakers.

To avoid short-circuiting the

speakers

Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage

the receiver. To prevent this, make sure to take

the following precautions when connecting the

speakers.

Make sure the stripped ends of each

speaker cord does not touch another

speaker terminal, the stripped end of

another speaker cord, or the metal parts of

the receiver.

After connecting all the components,

speakers, and AC power cord, output qe

a test tone to check that all the 01

speakers are connected correctly.

For details on outputting a test tone, a

see page 18.

If no sound is heard l)om a speaker while

outputfing a test tone or a test tone is output

from a speaker other than the one whose name

is currently displayed on the receiver, the

speaker may be short-circuited. If this happens,

check the speaker connection again.

To avoid damaging your

speakers

Make sure that you turn down the volume

before you turn off the receiver. When you turn

on the receiver, the volume remains at the level

you turn off the receiver.

Once you have hooked up tbe speakers and

turned on the power, clear the receiver's

memory. Then specify the spe*_ker parameters

(size, position, etc.) and perform any other

initiM setup operations necessary for your

system.

Tip

TO check the audio output during settings (to set up

while outputting the sound), check the connection

(page 19).

Clearing the receiver's

memory

Before using your receiver for the first time, or

when you want to clear the receiver's memory,

do the following.

1 Turn off the receiver.

2 Hold down I/5 for 5 seconds.

"INITIAL" oppears in the disploy.

The following *wereset to their factory

settings.

• All settings in the SET UP, LEVEL and

TONE menus.

• The sound field memorized for each

function and preset station.

• All sound field p_rameters.

• All preset stations.

• All index names of input selectors and

preset stations.

• The master volmne is set to"VOL

MIN".

Performing initial setup

operations

Before using your receiver for the first time,

_djust SET UP porameters so thot the receiver

correspond to your system. For the odjustable

partuneters, see tbe table on page 51. See pages

14-18 for speaker settings and poges 34-35 for

other settings.

For the best possible surround sound, all

speakers should be the same distance from tbe

listening position (O).

However, the receiver lets you place the center

speaker up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) closer (0)

_md the surround speokers up to 4.5 meters (15

feet) closer (0) to the listening position.

The front speakers can be placed fi'om 1.0 to

7.0 meters (3 to 23 feet) from tbe listening

position (_).

You con place the surround speakers either

behind you or to the side, depending on tbe

shope of your room (etc.). However, we

recommend that you place the surround

speakers behind you.

To select "NORM. SP.", turn off the power,

then turn on again while pressing MAIN

MENU. (To reset to "MICRO SP.", do the

same procedure.)

Tip

The seuing for Micro Salellite Speaker (MICRO SP.)

has been programmed to optimize the sotmd balance.

If you use Sow's Micro Satellite Speakers, select

"MICRO SP.".

Caution

When you use Micro Satellile Speakers and the

Tip

The ]_ceiver a]hlws you to input _he speaker posdio]t

in terms of distmlce. However, it is not possible to set

the center speaker furdler than the fro]it speakers.

Also, the center speaker cannot be set more than

1.5 meters (5 fee0 closer thar_the front speakers.

Likewise, tile st_rround speakers can not be set ft_rther

away from the [isteni]lg position than the front

speakers. And they can be ml more than 4.5 meters

(15 feet) closer.

This is b_ause ir_con'ect speaker p]acemenl is not

conducive to er_joy surround sound.

P{e_se note that, setting file speaker distance closer

than the actual Iocatior_ of the speakers wi!! cause a

delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In

other words, the speaker will sou_ld like it is further

away.

For example, setting the center speaker distance

1_2 m (3_6 feet) closer _hml the actual speaker

position will create a fairly l_alistic sensation of being

"inside" the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory

smTound effect because the surround speakers are too

close, setting the surround speaker dis{ance closer

(shorter) than the actual distance will creale a larger

sound stage.

Adjusting these parameter while listening to the

sotmd oflell resuhs ir_much better surrour_d soured.

• Surround speaker placement (_

This pararaeter lets you specify the height of

16G8

Tip

The surround speaker placement parameter is

designed specifically for implementation of tbe

Digital Cinema Sound modes with virtual elements.

With the Digital Cinema Sound modes, speaker

placement is nol as critical as other modes. All modes

with virtual elements were designed under the

premise that tbe surround speaker would be located

behind the listening position, but presentation l_mains

fairly consistent even with the surround speakers

positioned _t a rather wide angle. However, iftbe

speakers are pointing towards the listener from the

immediate left and right of tbe listening position, the

sound fields with vilOtual elements wil! not be as

effective.

Nevelotheless, each listening environmenl has many

variables, like wall reflections.

There fo_, we recommend that you playback muhi

channel surround encoded software and listen to the

eft_ct each setting has on your listening environment.

Choose the setting that provides a good sense of

spaciousness and thai best succeeds in forming a

cohesive space between tile surround sound from the

surround speakel_ and lhe sound of the front

speakers. If you ale not sure which sounds best, select

"PL. LOW" and then use tile speaker distance

parameter and speaker level adjustments to obtain

proper balance.

Only when you use the speaker system

other than the supplied one, be sure to

set the following parameters.

Tip

Internally, the LARGE and SMALL settings for each

speaker detelxnine whether the internal sound

processor will cut the bass signal from that cllannel.

When the bass is cut t¥om a channel, tile bass

redirection ch_:uitry sends tile corresponding bass

frequencies to the sub woot_r or other "LARGE"

speakers.

However, since bass sounds have a certain amount of

directionality, it is best not to cut [hem, if possible.

Therefore, even when using small speakers, you can

set them to "LARGE" if you want to output the bass

frequencies from that speaker. On the other hand, if

you ale using a large speaker, but prefer not Io have

bass frequencies output from that speaker, set it to

"SMALL".

If the overall sound level is lower than you pret_21; set

all speakers to "LARGE". If there is not enough bass,

you can use the BASS parameter in the TONE menu

to boost the bass levels. To adjust the bass, see page

27.

Use tim remote while seated in your listening

position to adjust the level of each speaker.
