Getting Started

This receiver allows you to use a 7.1 channel
system (7 speakers and one subwoofer).

Enjoying a 5.1/7.1 channel
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 subwoofer (5.1
channel).

You can enjoy high fidelity reproduction of
DVD or Blu-ray disc software recorded sound
in the Surround EX format if you connect one
additional surround back speaker (6.1 channel
system) or two surround back speakers (7.1
channel system).

How to connect your
components

Connecting components with
HDMI jacks
HDMI is the abbreviated name for HighDefinition Multimedia Interface. It is an
interface which transmits video and audio
signals in digital format.
Sony recommends that you connect
components to the receiver using an HDMI
cable.
With HDMI, you can easily enjoy both high
quality sound and high quality images.

However, it is necessary to connect
the audio output of the TV to the
audio input of the receiver using an
optical digital cord to listen to the
TV multi channel surround sound
broadcasting from the receiver.
By connecting Sony “BRAVIA” Sync
compatible components using HDMI cables,
““BRAVIA” Sync Features” makes
operations simpler (page 93).
Notes
• Be sure to change the factory setting of the HDMI
1–4 input button on the remote so that you can use
the button to control your components. For details,
see “Programming the remote” (page 117).
• You can also rename the HDMI input so that it can
be displayed on the receiver’s display. For details,
see “Naming the input (Name Input)” (page 49).

26US

HDMI features
• A digital audio signals transmitted by HDMI
can be output from the speakers connected to
the receiver. This signal supports Dolby
Digital, DTS, and Linear PCM.
• The receiver can receive Multi Linear PCM
(up to 8 channels) with a sampling frequency
of 192 kHz or less with an HDMI
connection.
• Analog video signals input to the VIDEO
jack or COMPONENT VIDEO jacks can be
up-converted as HDMI signals. Audio
signals are not output from an HDMI OUT
jack when the image is converted.
• This receiver supports High Bitrate Audio
(DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby TrueHD),
Deep Color and x.v.Color transmission,
extended by HDMI version 1.3.
• This receiver supports the Control for HDMI
function. For details, see ““BRAVIA” Sync
Features” (page 93).
• HDMI 3 input has a better sound quality.
When you need a higher sound quality,
connect your component to the HDMI IN 3
(for AUDIO) jack and select HDMI 3 as
input.

Notes on connecting cables
• We recommend that you use an HDMI cable
with the HDMI logo (made by Sony) for the
HDMI jack corresponding to high speed (an
HDMI version 1.3a, category 2 cable) when
you view images or listen to sound during a
Deep Color transmission or when you watch
a video image of 1080p or higher.
• We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable. When you connect an
HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D
component, the sound and/or the image may
not be output. Connect other audio cords or
digital connecting cords, then set “Input
Assign” in the Input Option menu when the
sound is not output correctly.

Notes on HDMI connections
• An audio signal input to the HDMI IN jack
is output from the SPEAKERS jacks and
HDMI OUT jack. It is not output from any
other audio jacks.
• A video signal input to the HDMI IN jack
can only be output from the HDMI OUT
jack. The video input signals cannot be
output from the VIDEO OUT jacks or
MONITOR OUT jacks.
• The audio and video signals of HDMI input
are not output from the HDMI OUT jack
while the receiver menu is displayed.
• When you want to listen to the sound from
the TV speaker, set “Audio Out” to
“TV+AMP” in the HDMI Settings menu
(page 81). If you cannot play back multi
channel audio source, set to “AMP”.
However, the sound will not output from the
TV speaker.
• DSD signals of Super Audio CD are not
input and output.
• Be sure to turn on the receiver when the
video and audio of a playback component
are being output to a TV via the receiver. If
the power supply of the receiver is not
turned on, neither video nor audio is
transmitted.

28US

• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit
length, etc.) transmitted from an HDMI jack
may be suppressed by the connected
component. Check the setup of the
connected component if the image is poor or
the sound does not come out of a component
connected via the HDMI cable.
• Sound may be interrupted when the
sampling frequency, the number of channels
or audio format of audio output signals from
the playback component is switched.
• When the connected component is not
compatible with copyright protection
technology (HDCP), the image and/or the
sound from the HDMI OUT jack may be
distorted or may not be output.
In this case, check the specification of the
connected component.
• You can enjoy High Bitrate Audio (DTS-HD
Master Audio, Dolby TrueHD), multi
channel Linear PCM only with an HDMI
connection.

Getting Started

This receiver is equipped with a function for converting video signals.
You can output the video signal after connecting this receiver via MONITOR OUT or HDMI OUT
jack as shown in the illustration below.
• Video signals can be output as HDMI video and component video signals.
• Component video signals can be output as HDMI video signals.
As the initial setting, video signals input from the connected component are output to the HDMI
OUT or MONITOR OUT jacks as shown in the table below.
We recommend you set the video conversion function to match the resolution of the monitor you
are using.
For details on the video converting function, see “Settings for the video (Video Settings menu)”
(page 79).

Notes on converting video
signals

To connect a recording
component

• When video signals from a VCR, etc., are
converted on this receiver and then output to
your TV, depending on the status of the
video signal output, the image on the TV
screen may appear distorted horizontally or
no image may be output.
• HDMI video signals cannot be converted to
component video signals and video signals.
• When you play back a VCR with an image
improvement circuit, such as TBC, the
images may be distorted or may not be
output. In this case, set the image
improvement circuit function to off.
• The resolution of the signals output to the
COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jacks and HDMI OUT jack are converted up
to 1080i.
• COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jacks have restrictions on resolution when
the resolution of video signals protected by
copyright technology is converted.
Resolution of up to 480p can be output to the
COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jacks. The HDMI OUT jack has no
restriction on resolution.
• Video signals for which the resolution has
been converted cannot be output from either
the COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR
OUT jacks or the HDMI OUT jack. The
video signals are output from the HDMI
OUT jack when both are connected.

When recording, connect the recording
component to the VIDEO OUT jacks of the
receiver. Connect cords for input and output
signals to the same type of jack, as VIDEO
OUT jacks do not have an up-conversion
function.

To display Closed Caption
Set “Resolution” to “DIRECT” in the Video
Settings menu when receiving a signal that
supports Closed Captions.
Use the same type of cords for the input/output
signals.

34US

Note
Signals output from the HDMI OUT or MONITOR
OUT jacks may not be recorded properly.

9: Calibrating the
appropriate speaker
settings automatically
(Auto Calibration)
This receiver is equipped with DCAC (Digital
Cinema Auto Calibration) function which
allows you to perform automatic calibration to
measure the following:
• Speaker connectionsa)
• Polarity of speakers
• Speaker distancea)
• Speaker sizea)
• Speaker level
• Frequency characteristicsa)b)
a)

The measurement result is not utilized when the
“Analog Direct” is selected.
b) • Signals with a sampling frequency of higher than
96 kHz are always played back at either 44.1 kHz
or 48 kHz.
• The measurement result is not utilized when
Dolby TrueHD signals with a sampling
frequency of higher than 96 kHz are being
received.

The DCAC is designed to obtain proper sound
balance in your room. However, you can
adjust the speaker levels and balance manually
according to your preference. For details, see
“Test Tone (Test tone)” (page 75).

Before you perform Auto
Calibration
Before you perform the Auto Calibration, set
up and connect the speakers (page 17–19).
• The AUTO CAL MIC jack is used for the
supplied optimizer microphone only. Do not
connect other microphones to this jack.
Doing so may damage the receiver and the
microphone.
• During the measurement, the sound that
comes out of the speakers is very loud. The
volume of the sound cannot be adjusted. Pay
attention to the presence of children or to the
effect on your neighborhood.
• Perform the measurement in a quiet
environment to avoid the effect of noise and
get a more accurate measurement.
• If there are any obstacles in the path between
the optimizer microphone and the speakers,
the calibration cannot be performed
correctly. Remove any obstacles from the
measurement area to avoid measurement
error.
• When you use a bi-amplifier connection, set
“SB Assign” to “BI-AMP” in the Speaker
Settings menu (page 73) before you perform
Auto Calibration.

To adjust the size of each
speaker
You can adjust each speaker’s (front left/right,

want to adjust the size, then press
.

2 Press B/b repeatedly to select “Size:”.

74US

3 Press V/v repeatedly to set the size of
the selected speaker, then press
.
• Large
If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies,
select “Large”. Normally, select “Large”.
• Small
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack
of surround effects when using multi
channel surround sound, select “Small” to
activate the bass redirection circuitry and
output the bass frequencies of each
channel from the subwoofer or other
“Large” speakers.
Tips
• The “Large” and “Small” settings for each speaker
determine whether the internal sound processor
will cut the bass signal from that channel.
When the bass is cut from a channel, the bass
redirection circuitry sends the corresponding bass
frequencies to the subwoofer or other “Large”
speakers.
However, since bass sound has a certain amount of
directionality, it is best not to cut it, 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 are using a large speaker, but prefer
not to have bass frequencies output from that
speaker, set it to “Small”.
If the overall sound level is lower than you prefer,
set all speakers to “Large”. If there is not enough
bass, you can use the equalizer to boost the bass
levels.
• The surround back speakers will be set to the same
setting as that of the surround speakers.
• When the front speakers are set to “Small”, the
center, surround, and surround back speakers are
also automatically set to “Small”.
• If you do not use the subwoofer, the front speakers
are automatically set to “Large”.

x D.Range Comp
(Dynamic range compression)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
soundtrack. This may be useful when you want
to watch movies at low volumes late at night.
Dynamic range compression is possible with
Dolby Digital sources only.

The dynamic range is compressed
dramatically.
• STD
The dynamic range is compressed as
intended by the recording engineer.
• AUTO
The dynamic range is applied automatically
with Dolby TrueHD source or other source

• OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
Tips
• Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the
dynamic range information included in the Dolby
Digital signal.
• “STD” is the standard setting, but it only enacts
light compression. Therefore, we recommend
using the “MAX” setting. This greatly compresses
the dynamic range and lets you view movies late at
night at low volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the
levels are predetermined and provide a very natural
compression.
