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

Example of speaker system
configuration

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 software recorded sound in the Surround
EX format if you connect additional one
surround back speaker (6.1 channel) or two
surround back speakers (7.1 channel).
You can enjoy vertical sound effects if you
connect additional two front high speakers
(7.1 channel) in PLIIz mode (page 66).

Tips
• When you connect a 7.1 channel speaker system
with two surround back speakers, all angle A
should be the same.

• When you connect a 7.1 channel speaker system
with two front high speakers, place the front high
speakers
– at an angle between 22° to 45°.
– at least 3.3 feet (1 meter) directly above the front
speakers.

• When you connect a 6.1 channel speaker system,
place the surround back speaker behind the
listening position.

• Since the subwoofer does not emit highly
directional signals, you can place it wherever you
want.

screen may appear distorted horizontally or
no image may be output.
• HDMI video signals cannot be converted to
component video signals and video signals.
• The converted video signals are not output
from the MONITOR VIDEO OUT and
COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT
jack.
• 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
HDMI TV OUT jacks are converted up to
1080p.
• COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT

• The sound fields for music and movies do not work
in the following cases.
– Signals with a sampling frequency of more than
48 kHz are being received.
– Signals with more than 5.1 channel are being
received (except PLIIz).
• When one of the sound fields for music is selected,
no sound is output from the subwoofer if all the
speakers are set to “Large” on the Speaker Settings
menu. However, the sound will be output from the
subwoofer if
– the digital input signal contains LFE signals.
– the front or surround speakers are set to “Small”.
– the sound field for movie is selected.
– “Portable Audio” is selected.
• The effects provided by the virtual speakers may
cause increased noise in the playback signal.
• When listening with sound fields that employ the
virtual speakers, you will not be able to hear any
sound coming directly from the surround speakers.

Tips

This mode is selected automatically if you use
headphones when “Analog Direct” is selected.
Outputs the analog signals without processing
by the equalizer, sound field, etc.

• You can identify the encoding format of DVD
software, etc., by looking at the logo on the
package.
• Dolby Pro Logic IIx and Dolby Pro Logic IIz
decoding are effective when multi channel signals
are input.
• Sound fields with DCS marks use DCS
technology. For details on Digital Cinema Sound
(DCS), see “Glossary” (page 117).

If you connect a subwoofer
This receiver will generate a low frequency
signal for output to the subwoofer when there
is no LFE signal, which is a low-pass sound
effect output from a subwoofer to a 2 channel
signal. However, the low frequency signal is
not generated for “Neo:6 Cinema” or “Neo:6
Music” when all speakers are set to “Large”.
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby
Digital bass redirection circuitry, we
recommend setting the subwoofer’s cut off
frequency as high as possible.

To turn off the surround effect
for movie/music
Press SOUND FIELD +/– repeatedly to select
“2CH ST.” or “A.F.D. AUTO”.
You can also press 2CH/A.DIRECT
repeatedly on the receiver to select “2CH ST.”
or press A.F.D. repeatedly on the receiver to
select “A.F.D. AUTO”.

Notes on sound fields
• Depending on the speaker pattern settings, some
sound fields may not be available.
• You cannot select PLIIx and PLIIz at the same
time.
– PLIIx is available only when the speaker pattern
is set to a setting with surround back speaker(s).
– PLIIz is available only when the speaker pattern
is set to a setting with front high speakers.

Advanced Operations

• 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 front high speakers are also
automatically set to “Small”.
• If you do not use the subwoofer, the front speakers
are automatically set to “Large”.

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.
