Connecting the AV Receiver
Connecting the Speaker Cables
The following illustration shows how to connect the speakers to each pair of terminals.
Screw-type speaker terminals Strip 1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.
Banana Plugs (North American models) If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker
terminal before inserting the banana plug. Do not insert the speaker code directly into the center
hole of the speaker terminal.
Speaker Configuration
The following table indicates the channels you should use depending on the number of speakers that you have. No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid bass. To get the best from your surround sound system, you need to set the speaker settings automatically ( page 30) or manually ( page 46).
Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels
The speaker terminals are color-coded for identification purpose.
The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and you should attach them to the positive (+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all you need to do is to match the color of each label to the corresponding speaker terminal.
Note
With the Home Theater System, speaker cable labels are not supplied.

Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers: You can connect speakers with an impedance of between
6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be activated.
Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.
Read the instructions supplied with your speakers. Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other
words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative () terminals only to negative () terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the AV receivers rear panel. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
Dont connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
Dont connect one speaker to several terminals.
Using a Powered Subwoofer
To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.
Tip
If your subwoofer is unpowered and youre using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

Connecting AV components a
Before making any AV connections, read the manuals supplied with your AV components.
Dont connect the power cord until youve completed and double-checked all AV connections.
Push plugs in all the way to make good connections (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions).
To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables.
AV Cables and Jacks
HDMI HDMI connections can carry digital video and audio.
Component video Component video separates the luminance (Y) and color difference signals (PB, PR), providing the best picture quality (some TV manufacturers label their component video sockets slightly differently).
Composite video Composite video is commonly used on TVs, DVDs, and other video equipment.
Optical digital audio Optical digital connections allow you to enjoy digital sound such as PCM*1, Dolby Digital or DTS. The audio quality is the same as coaxial.
Coaxial digital audio Coaxial digital connections allow you to enjoy digital sound such as PCM*1, Dolby Digital or DTS. The audio quality is the same as optical.
Analog audio (RCA) Analog audio connections (RCA) carry analog audio.
*1 For PCM signals, the supported sampling rates are 32/44.1/48/88.2/96 kHz. With HDMI connections, 176.4 and 192 kHz are also supported.
Note
The AV receiver does not support SCART plugs. The AV receivers optical digital jacks have shutter-type covers
that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when its removed. Push plugs in all the way.
Caution
To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna. The AV receiver wont pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.
Note
Once your AV receiver is ready for use, youll need to tune into a radio station and position the antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
Keep the AM loop antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.
Tip
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead. If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM
antenna.
