Hints on speaker placement
Speakers are usually designed with a particular
placement in mind. Some are designed to be
floorstanding, while others should be placed on stands to
sound their best. Some should be placed near a wall;
others should be placed away from walls. We have
provided a few tips on getting the best sound from your
speakers (following), but you should also follow the
guidelines on placement that the speaker manufacturer
provided with your particular speakers to get the most
out of them.
• Place the front left and right speakers at equal
distances from the TV.

Surround R.

Surround L.

• 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.
• Place the center speaker above or below the TV so
that the sound of the center channel is localized at
the TV screen.
• If possible, place the surround speakers slightly
above ear level.

Connecting up

• Try not to place the surround speakers further away
from the listening position than the front and center
speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound
effect.
Caution
• If you choose to install the center speaker on top of
the TV, be sure to secure it with putty, or by other
suitable means, to reduce the risk of damage or
injury resulting from the speaker falling from the TV
in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.
• Make sure no exposed speaker wire is touching the
rear panel, this may cause the receiver to turn off
automatically.
• These speaker terminals are hazardous when live. To
prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or
disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the
power cable.
• These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE
voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when
connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables,
disconnect the power cord before touching any
uninsulated parts.

10
En

Plugging in
After making sure that everything is connected properly,
connect the attached power cable to a wall outlet.

Power cord caution
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the
plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord
when your hands are wet as this could cause a short
circuit or an electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece
of furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord.
Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords.
The power cords should be routed such that they are not
likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause
a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power
cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your
nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer
for a replacement.

Surround sound setup
Introduction to home theater

Quick setup using the Room Setup

You are probably used to using stereo equipment to listen
to music, but may not be used to home theater systems
that give you many more options (such as surround
sound) when listening to soundtracks.

The Room Setup feature gives you a very simple way to
set up your receiver for good surround sound by setting
the room size and your seating position in the room.

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 the speakers you have set up in your
room, but also on the source and the sound settings of
the receiver.

You can make more detailed settings for surround sound
later if you want, setting individual channel levels and
speaker distances. See below for more details.

STANDBY/ON



DVD-Video has become the basic source material for
home theater due to its size, quality, and ease of use.
Depending on the DVD, you can have up to seven
different audio tracks coming from one disc, all of them
being sent to different speakers in your system. This is
what creates a surround sound effect and gives you the
feeling of ‘being there’.
This receiver will automatically decode Dolby Digital,
DTS, or Dolby Surround DVD-Video discs, 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 18.

ENTER
ROOM
SETUP

Switching on
Use the  STANDBY/ON button on the front panel or the
remote control to switch the receiver on or into standby.
Remember that when the receiver is in standby it still
uses a small amount of power (0.5 W). Unplug from the
wall outlet to completely disconnect the power. The
receiver will retain its settings for about four weeks when
unplugged.

Setting individual channel levels
Setting speaker distances
For more accurate surround sound settings you can set
the distance from your listening position to each of the
speakers.
See also Setting individual channel levels below for
setting the relative levels of individual speakers.

In order to balance the sound from all the speakers in
your system you can adjust the relative level of each
speaker. Adjust so that the level of each speaker is
similar from your listening position.
While setting the channel levels, you can either listen to
a multichannel source (such as a DVD), or use the builtin test tone feature.

Setting the channel levels using the test tone
The test tone feature outputs a constant noise tone from
each speaker, giving you a good reference to adjust the
levels.
