Step 1: Assembling the Speakers
(BDV-IT1000 only)
You can set speakers in two ways using stands: if you would like to place them on a floor, use speaker
stands (page 23) and if on a desk, shelf, etc., use desktop stands (page 31).
Before connecting the speakers, assemble the speakers.
Caution on using the speakers
• When moving the speakers, keep one hand under the desktop stand and hold both sides of the speaker.
When you use speaker stands with the speakers, hold the pole and the base.
• The following actions may damage the speaker.
Speaker assembly
Use the parts as follows:
• Front speakers (2)
• Surround speakers (2)
• Center speaker (1)
• Speaker cords (5, white/red/blue/gray/green)
• Baffle covers (short 3, long 2)
•Grilles (5)
Use the following if you use speaker stands:
• Floor bases (4)
• Poles (4)
• Long screws (8, black)
Use the following if you use desktop stands:
• Desktop stands (4) *
* Desktop stands are screwed on the floor bases. When using desktop stands, unscrew and detach them.

About the surround back speaker
You can enjoy 7.1 surround sound with the surround back speakers by purchasing the additional
surround amplifier (optional). Use the commercially available speakers for the surround back speakers.
To use the surround amplifier for the surround back speakers, connect the surround back speakers (not
supplied) to the surround amplifier, see “Using an S-AIR Product” (page 99).
Note
• Avoid placing obstructions around the speaker.
• After installing the speakers, arrange the speaker cords so as not to topple the speakers by catching the speaker cords
with your foot.
• Avoid placing the center speaker on the TV.
• Do not set the speakers in an inclined position.
• Avoid placing the speakers in locations that are:
– Extremely hot or cold
– Dusty or dirty
– Very humid
– Subject to vibrations
– Subject to direct sunlight
• Use caution when placing the speakers and/or speaker stands attached to the speakers on a specially treated (waxed,
oiled, polished, etc.) floor, as staining or discoloration may result.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
• Do not lean or hang on the speaker, as the speaker may fall down.
• Do not bend, twist, or fold the speaker grille. (BDV-IT1000 only)
• Do not insert an object (especially metal) into a hole on the front part of the speaker. (BDV-IT1000 only)
• Avoid placing the speakers close to a CRT-based TV. It may cause color irregularity. (BDV-IT1000 only)
• When using the speaker stands, we recommend that the speakers are installed on a flat and firm floor (not on a thick
pile carpet, for example). The speakers may topple over if installed on an inclined or soft floor.

About the HDMI connection
If you connect a 1080/24p- or 1080p-compatible TV, use a High Speed HDMI cable.
If you connect a Sony TV that is compatible with the Control for HDMI function (page 105), operation
is simplified (ex. ONE-TOUCH PLAY: With one touch of the button, the connected TV turns on and
the input selector on the TV is switched to the system automatically). For details, see “Using the
Control for HDMI Function for “BRAVIA” Sync” (page 105).
Note
• Be sure to use only an HDMI cable that bears the HDMI logo.
• When connecting the HDMI cable, make sure that the direction of jacks are the same.
.
To connect to a TV with DVI input
Use an HDMI-DVI converter cable (not supplied). The DVI jack does not accept audio signals;
therefore, the sound is not output from a TV.
Furthermore, you cannot connect the HDMI OUT jack to DVI jacks that are not HDCP compliant (e.g.,
DVI jacks on PC displays).

amplifier.
The POWER / ON LINE indicator turns
green. If not, check the transmission status
as follows.
To check the transmission status
You can check the status of sound transmission
between the unit and surround amplifier by
checking the POWER / ON LINE indicator of
the surround amplifier.
To enjoy the sound by using
headphones
You can enjoy the system’s sound in a place
apart from the unit by connecting the
headphones to the PHONES jack on the
surround amplifier.
Note
• When you connect headphones to the surround
amplifier, neither the unit nor the surround amplifier
outputs sound from the system’s speakers.
• The volume of the unit may become minimum if you
turn off the surround amplifier while the headphones
are connected to the surround amplifier, or radio
reception is poor. In this case, “HP NO LINK” and
“VOLUME MIN” appear alternately in the front
panel display. Check radio reception, and set the
volume again.
When you use multiple S-AIR
products
You can prevent miss transmission between the
S-AIR products by setting a different ID for each
S-AIR product. For details, see “Establishing
sound transmission between the unit and S-AIR
sub unit (ID setting)” (page 99).

About DCS (Digital Cinema
Sound)
In collaboration with Sony Pictures
Entertainment, Sony measured the sound
environment of their studios and integrated the
data of the measurement and the Sony DSP
(Digital Signal Processor) technology to
develop “Digital Cinema Sound.” “Digital
Cinema Sound” simulates in a home theater an
ideal movie theater sound environment based on
the preference of the movie director.
About “MOVIE-D.C.S.-”
“MOVIE-D.C.S.-” is ideal for enjoying movie
software encoded with multi channel format,
such as the Dolby Digital DVD. This mode
reproduces the sound characteristics of Sony
Pictures Entertainment’s studios.
“MOVIE-D.C.S.-” consists of the following
three elements.
• Virtual Multi Dimension
The system creates five sets of virtual speakers
surrounding the listener from a single pair of
actual surround speakers.
• Screen Depth Matching
In a movie theater, sound seems to come from
inside the image reflected on the movie screen.
This element creates the same sensation in
your listening room by shifting the sound of
the front speakers “into” the screen.
• Cinema Studio Reverberation
The system reproduces the reverberations

“MOVIE-D.C.S.-” is the integrated mode which
operates these elements simultaneously.
Note
• The virtual speaker effect may cause increased noise
in the playback signal.
• With decoding modes that use virtual speakers, you
will not be able to hear any sound coming directly
from the surround speakers.
Changing the Sound
When the system is playing a BD/DVD VIDEO
recorded in multiple audio formats (PCM,
Dolby Digital, MPEG audio, or DTS), you can
change the audio format. If the BD/DVD
VIDEO is recorded with multilingual tracks,
you can also change the language.
With a CD, you can select the sound from the
right or left channel and listen to the sound of the
selected channel through both the right and left
speakers.
Press repeatedly during playback to
select the desired audio signal.
The audio information appears on the TV
screen.
xBD/DVD VIDEO
Depending on the BD/DVD VIDEO, the choice
of language varies.
When 4 digits are displayed, they indicate a
language code. See “Language Code List”
(page 149) to confirm which language the code
represents. When the same language is
displayed two or more times, the BD/DVD

Precautions
On safety
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, on the unit, or place
the unit near water, such as near a bathtub or shower
room. Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any further.
• Do not touch the AC power cord (mains lead) with
wet hands. Doing so may cause an electric shock.
On power sources
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if you do
not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by
the cord.
On placement
• Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.
• At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet
becomes hot to touch. This is not a malfunction.
However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do
not place the unit in a confined space where
ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.
• Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything
on the system. The system is equipped with a high
power amplifier. If the ventilation slots are blocked,
the unit can overheat and malfunction.
• Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.)
or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block
the ventilation slots.
• Do not install the unit in a confined space, such as a
bookshelf or similar unit.
• Do not install the unit near heat sources such as
radiators, air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or
shock.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is
designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.
• Keep the unit and discs away from components with
strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or large
loudspeakers.
• Do not place heavy objects on the unit.
On operation
• If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lenses inside the control unit.
Should this occur, the system may not operate
properly. In this case, remove the disc and leave the
system turned on for about half an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
• When you move the system, take out any disc. If you
don’t, the disc may be damaged.
• If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and
have it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
On adjusting volume
• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section
with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you
do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level
section is suddenly played.
On cleaning
• Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
On cleaning discs, disc/lens
cleaners
• Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners
(including wet or spray types). These may cause
the apparatus to malfunction.
On replacement of parts
• In the events that this unit is repaired, repaired parts
may be collected for reuse or recycling purposes.
On your TV’s color
• If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have
color irregularity, turn off the TV then turn it on after
15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity should persist,
place the speakers further away from the TV set.

On moving the system
Before moving the system, make sure that there is no
disc inserted, and remove the AC power cord (mains
lead) from the wall outlet (mains).
About S-AIR function
• As the S-AIR function transmits sound by radio
waves, sound may skip when radio waves are
obstructed. This is a characteristic of radio waves and
is not malfunction.
• As the S-AIR function transmits sound by radio
waves, equipment that generates electromagnetic
energy, such as a microwave oven, may interfere with
sound transmission.
• As the S-AIR function uses the radio waves that share
the same frequency as other wireless systems, such as
wireless LAN or Bluetooth, interference or poor
transmission may result. In this case, take the
following steps:
– Do not install the system near other wireless
systems.
– Do not use the system and the other wireless
systems at the same time.
• The transmission distance differs depending on the
usage environment. Find a location where
transmission between the S-AIR main unit and sub
unit is most effective, and install the S-AIR main unit
and sub unit there.
About the surround amplifier
• The nameplate is located on the side exterior.
Notes about the Discs
On handling discs
• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its
edge. Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or
heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in
a car parked in direct sunlight as the
temperature may rise considerably inside the
car.
• After playing, store the disc in its case.
On cleaning
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning
cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners, or anti-static
spray intended for vinyl LPs.
This system can only play back a standard
circular disc. Using neither standard nor circular
discs (e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause
a malfunction.
Do not use a disc that has a commercially
available accessory attached, such as a label or
ring.

About playback of discs recorded in AVCHD format
This system can play AVCHD format discs.
What is the AVCHD format?
The AVCHD format is a high-definition digital video camera format used to record SD (standard
definition) or HD (high definition) signals of either the 1080i specification* or the 720p specification**
on DVDs, using efficient data compression coding technology. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is
adopted to compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or Linear PCM system is used to compress audio
data. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is capable of compressing images at higher efficiency than that
of the conventional image compressing format. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format enables a high
definition (HD) video signal shot on a digital video camera recorder to be recorded on DVD discs, in
the same way as it would be for a standard definition (SD) television signal.
* A high-definition specification which utilizes 1080 effective scanning lines and the interlace system.
** A high-definition specification which utilizes 720 effective scanning lines and the progressive system.
Note
• Some AVCHD format discs may not play, depending on the recording condition.
• The AVCHD format disc will not play if it has not been correctly finalized.

Glossary
AACS
“Advanced Access Content System” is a
specification for managing digital entertainment
contents stored on the next generation of
prerecorded and recorded optical media. The
specification enables consumers to enjoy digital
entertainment content, including high-definition
content.
AVCHD
The AVCHD format is a high-definition digital
video camera format used to record SD
(standard definition) or HD (high definition)
signals of either the 1080i specification* or the
720p specification** on DVDs, using efficient
data compression coding technology. The
MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is adopted to
compress video data, and the Dolby Digital or
Linear PCM system is used to compress audio
data. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format is
capable of compressing images at higher
efficiency than that of the conventional image
compression format. The MPEG-4 AVC/H.264
format enables a high definition (HD) video
signal shot on a digital video camera recorder to
be recorded on DVD discs in the same way as it
would be for a standard definition (SD)
television signal.
* A high definition specification that utilizes 1080
effective scanning lines and the interlace format.
** A high definition specification that utilizes 720
effective scanning lines and the progressive format.
BD-J application
The BD-ROM format supports Java for
interactive functions.
“BD-J” offers content providers almost
unlimited functionality when creating
interactive BD-ROM titles.
BD-R
BD-R (Blu-ray Disc Recordable) is a
recordable, write-once Blu-ray Disc, available
in the same capacities as the BD below. Since
contents can be recorded and cannot be
overwritten, a BD-R can be used to archive
valuable data or storing and distributing video
material.
BD-RE
BD-RE (Blu-ray Disc Rewritable) is a
recordable and rewritable Blu-ray Disc,
available in the same capacities as the BD
below. The re-recordable feature makes
extensive editing and time-shifting applications
possible.
BD-ROM
BD-ROMs (Blu-ray Disc Read-Only Memory)
are commercially produced discs and are
available in the same capacities as the BD
below. Other than conventional movie and video
contents, these discs have enhanced features
such as interactive content, menu operations
using pop-up menus, selection of subtitle
display, and slideshow. Although a BD-ROM
may contain any form of data, most BD-ROM
discs will contain movies in High Definition
format, for playback on Blu-ray Disc/DVD
players.
Blu-ray Disc (BD)
A disc format developed for recording/playing
high-definition (HD) video (for HDTV, etc.),
and for storing large amounts of data. A single
layer Blu-ray Disc holds up to 25 GB, and a
dual-layer Blu-ray Disc holds up to 50 GB of
data.
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration
Digital Cinema Auto Calibration was developed
by Sony to automatically measure and adjusts
the speaker settings to your listening
environment in a short period of time.
Dolby Digital
This movie theater sound format is more
advanced than Dolby Surround Pro Logic. In
this format, the surround speakers output stereo
sound with an expanded frequency range, and a
subwoofer channel for deep bass is
independently provided. This format is also
called “5.1” with the subwoofer channel
designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions
only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six
channels in this format are recorded separately
for superior channel separation. Furthermore,
since all the signals are processed digitally, less
signal degradation occurs.
154GB
Dolby Digital Plus
Developed as an extension to Dolby Digital, the
audio coding technology supports 7.1 multi-
channel surround sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth
output channels from 2 channel sources. This is
done using an advanced, high-purity matrix
surround decoder that extracts the spatial
properties of the original recording without
adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
xMovie mode
The Movie mode is for use with stereo television
shows and all programs encoded in Dolby
Surround. The result is enhanced sound field
directionality that approaches the quality of
discrete 5.1-channel sound.
xMusic mode
The Music mode is for use with any stereo music
recordings, and provides a wide and deep sound
space.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic
As one method of decoding Dolby Surround,
Dolby Surround Pro Logic produces four
channels from 2 channel sound. Compared with
the former Dolby Surround system, Dolby
Surround Pro Logic reproduces left-to-right
panning more naturally and localizes sounds
more precisely. To take full advantage of Dolby
Surround Pro Logic, you should have one pair of
surround speakers and a center speaker. The
surround speakers output monaural sound.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is a lossless coding technology
that supports up to 8 channels of multi-channel
surround sound for the next generation optical
discs. The reproduced sound is true to the
original source bit-for-bit.
DTS
Digital audio compression technology
developed by DTS, Inc. This technology
conforms to 5.1-channel surround. This format
comprises of stereo rear channel and there is
discrete subwoofer channel in this format. DTS
provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of high
quality digital audio. The good channel
separation is realized due to the all channel data
being recorded discretely and processed in
digitally.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
Developed as an extension to DTS Digital
Surround format. It supports a maximum
sampling frequency of 96 kHz, and 7.1 multi-
channel surround.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio has a
maximum transmission rate of 6 Mbps, with
lossy compression (Lossy).
DTS-HD Master Audio
DTS-HD Master Audio has a maximum
transmission rate of 24.5 Mbps, and uses
lossless compression (Lossless), and DTS-HD
Master Audio corresponds to a maximum
sampling frequency of 192 kHz, and maximum
of 7.1ch.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface)
HDMI is an interface that supports both video
and audio on a single digital connection,
allowing you to enjoy high quality digital
picture and sound. The HDMI specification
supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection), a copy protection
technology that incorporates coding technology
for digital video signals.
LTH (Low to High)
LTH is a recording system that supports organic
pigment type BD-R.
Parental Control
A function of the BD/DVD to limit playback of
the disc by the age of the users according to the
limitation level in each country. The limitation
varies from disc to disc; when it is activated,
playback is completely prohibited, violent
scenes are skipped or replaced with other scenes
and so on.

PhotoTV HD
“PhotoTV HD” allows for a highly-detailed
pictures, and photo-like expression of subtle
textures and colors. By connecting Sony
“PhotoTV HD” compatible devices using an
HDMI cable, whole new world of photos can be
enjoyed in breathtaking Full HD quality. For
instance, the delicate texture of the human skin,
flowers, sand and waves can now be displayed
on a large screen in beautiful photo-like quality.
Pop-up menu
An enhanced menu operation available on BD-
ROMs. The pop-up menu appears when POP
UP/MENU is pressed during playback, and can
be operated while playback is in progress.
S-AIR
(Sony Audio Interactive Radio
frequency)
Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVD
media, Digital Broadcasting, and other high-
quality media.
To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high-
quality media are transmitted with no
deterioration, Sony has developed a technology
called “S-AIR” for the radio transmission of
digital audio signals with no compression, and
has incorporated this technology into the EZW-
RT10/EZW-T100.
This technology transfers digital audio signals
with no compression using the 2.4 GHz band
range of ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical band), such as wireless LANs and
Bluetooth applications.
x.v.Colour
x.v.Colour is a familiar term for the xvYCC
standard proposed by Sony.
xvYCC is an international standard for color
space in video.
This standard can express a wider color range
than the currently used broadcast standard.
24p True Cinema
Movies shot with a film camera consist of 24
frames per second.
Since conventional televisions (both CRT and
flat panels) display frames either at 1/60 or 1/50
second intervals, the 24 frames do not appear at
an even pace.
When connected to a TV with 24p capabilities,
the player displays each frame at 1/24 second
intervals — the same interval originally shot
with the film camera, thus faithfully reproducing
the original cinema image.
