MULTI CH IN Hookups

Although this receiver incorporates a multi channel decoder, it is also equipped with MULTI CH IN jacks. These connections allow you to enjoy multichannel software encoded in formats other than Dolby Digital and DTS. If your DVD player is equipped with MULTI CH OUTPUT jacks, you can connect them directly to the receiver to enjoy the sound of the DVD players multi channel decoder. Alternatively, the MULTI CH IN jacks can be used to connect an external multi channel decoder. To fully enjoy multi channel surround sound, you will need five speakers (two front speakers, two surround speakers, and a center speaker) and a sub woofer. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player, multi channel decoder, etc., for details on the multi channel input hookups.

This chapter describes how to hook up your speaker system to the receiver, how to position each speaker, and how to set up your speakers to enjoy multi channel surround sound.

Multi Channel Surround Setup
For the best possible surround sound all speakers should be the same distance from the listening position (A). However, this unit lets you to place the center speaker up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) closer (B) or the surround back speakers up to 15 feet (4.5 meters) closer (D) and the surround speakers up to 15 feet (4.5 meters) closer (C) to the listening position. The front speakers can be placed from 3 to 40 feet (1.0 to 12.0 meters) from the listening position (A). You can place the surround speakers either behind you or to the side, depending on the shape of your room (etc.). You can use the center speaker as a surround back speaker.
When placing surround speakers to your side
z When setting up the surround back speaker
Set the speaker at least one meter behind the listening position. It is recommended to place the speaker at an equal distance from the surround left or right speakers. If there is no space behind the listening position, set the speaker above the listening position by placing it on a stand or hanging it from the ceiling. To prevent speaker damage or injury in case the speaker falls, make sure that it is properly fixed in place.
Do not place the center speaker farther away from the listening position than the front speakers.

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 surround channel bass frequencies from the sub woofer or other LARGE speakers. If you do not connect surround speakers, select NO.*3
x Surround back speaker size (SURR BACK)** Initial setting : NO This parameter can be set when the center speaker is set to NO and the surround speakers are set to LARGE or SMALL. If you connect a large speaker that will effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select LARGE. Normally, select LARGE. However, if the front speakers are set to SMALL, you cannot set the surround back speaker to LARGE. 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 center channel bass frequencies from the front speakers (if set to LARGE) or sub woofer. However, if the surround speakers are set to SMALL, the surround back speaker is automatically set to SMALL. If you do not connect a surround back speaker, select NO. ** This parameter is not available when Surround speaker size (SURROUND) is set to NO.

z About speaker distances
This receiver allows you to input the speaker position in terms of distance. However, it is not possible to set the center speaker farther away than the front speakers. Also, the center speaker can not be set more that 5 feet (1.5 meters) closer than the front speakers. Likewise, the surround and surround back speakers cannot be set farther away from the listening position than the front speakers. And they can be no more than 15 feet (4.5 meters) closer. This is because incorrect speaker placement is not conducive to enjoy the surround sound. Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer than the actual location of the speakers will cause a delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other words, the speaker will sound like it is farther away. For example, setting the center speaker distance 3~6 feet (1~2 m) closer than the actual speaker position will create a fairly realistic sensation of being inside the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory surround effect because the surround speakers are too close, setting the surround speaker distance closer (shorter) than the actual distance will create a larger soundstage. Adjusting these parameters while listening to the sound often results in much better surround sound. Give it a try!
x Sub woofer phase polarity (S.W PHASE) Initial setting : NORMAL Set the sub woofer phase polarity. There is usually no problem when the sub woofer phase polarity is set to NORMAL. However, depending on the type of front speakers, the position of the sub woofer, and the cut-off frequency of the sub woofer, setting the phase polarity to REVERSE may produce better bass. Besides bass reproduction, the richness and tightness of the overall sound may also be affected. While listening from the main listening position, select the setting that best suits your environment. x Distance unit (DISTANCE UNIT) Initial setting : feet (meter) Lets you select either feet or meters as the unit of measure for setting distances.
x Surround speaker position (SURR POSI.)* Initial setting : SIDE This parameter lets you specify the location of your surround speakers for proper implementation of the Digital Cinema Sound surround modes in the VIRTUAL sound fields. Refer to the illustration below. Select SIDE if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to section A. Select MIDDLE if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to section B. Select BEHIND** if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to section C. This setting only affects the surround modes in the VIRTUAL sound fields.

You can adjust the level of the all speakers at the same time. Turn MASTER VOLUME on the main unit or press MASTER VOL +/ on the remote.
Press ?/1 to turn on the receiver. Press TEST TONE on the remote. TEST TONE appears in the display and you will hear the test tone from each speaker in sequence.
The adjusted value are shown in the display during adjustment. Although these adjustments can also be made via the front panel using the LEVEL menu (when the test tone is output, the receiver switches to the LEVEL menu automatically), we recommend you to follow the procedure described above and adjust the speaker levels from your listening position using the remote.

z You can identify Dolby Surround-encoded software by looking at the packaging
Dolby Digital discs are labeled with the logo, and Dolby Surround encoded programs are labeled with the A logo.
z 6.1 channel matrix decoding
Some movies released after the summer of 1999 added a new channel to its preexisting 5.1 channel. The new channel added speakers behind the listening position. In the movie theaters, these speakers are placed on the rear wall, on each side of the projection rooms window. The 6.1 channel system used in the movie theaters is called Dolby Surround EX system. However, to record on movie films, this 6.1 channel is converted to 5.1 channel using matrix encoding, and the same number of channels are used as Dolby Digital and DTS recordings. Recordings on the DVD also use the same signals. A lot of movie theaters screen movie with matrix encoded 5.1 channel signals and this is not unnatural to the ears. However, when a matrix decoder is used to create surround center speaker signals, this simulates the same 6.1 channel sound as Dolby Surround EX system in the movie theaters. This unit is equipped with the matrix decoder allowing for 6.1 channel sound production. With Virtual 3D technology, the surround back signals can be enjoyed even without an actual surround back speaker. When the center speaker is not used, it is possible to use this channel to output surround back signals. Particularly with 6.1 CH DECODING, speakers placed on rear and side walls in the movie theaters are virtually created. As reflections and reverberations are also simulated, you can enjoy powerful sounds as if in the movie theater that uses Dolby Surround EX system.

Getting Started

Control System

Connections

Connect monaural (2P) mini-plug cords in series to the CONTROL A1 jacks on the back of each component. You can connect up to ten CONTROL A1 compatible components in any order. However, you can connect only one of each type of component (i.e., 1 CD player, 1 MD deck, 1 tape deck and 1 receiver). (You may be able to connect more than one CD player or MD deck, depending on the model. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the respective component for details.)

Example

This section explains the basic functions of the CONTROL A1 Control System. Certain components have special functions, like CD Synchro Dubbing on cassette decks, that require CONTROL A1 connections. For detailed information regarding specific operations, be sure to also refer to the Operating Instructions supplied with your component(s). The CONTROL A1 Control System was designed to simplify the operation of audio systems composed of separate Sony components. CONTROL A1 connections provide a path for the transmission of control signals which enable automatic operation and control features usually associated with integrated systems. Currently, CONTROL A1 connections between a Sony CD player, amplifier (receiver), MD deck and cassette deck provide automatic function selection and synchronized recording. In the future the CONTROL A1 connection will work as a multifunction bus allowing you to control various functions for each component.

Programming the remote

You can program the remote to control non-Sony components by changing the code. Once the control signals have been memorized, you can use those components as part of your system. Furthermore, you can also program the remote for Sony components that the remote is unable to control. Note that the remote can only control components that accept infrared wireless control signals.
When you assign a component to the MONITOR button, you can operate the programmed component without changing the function of the receiver.
The indicator turns off while a valid button is pressed. In step 2, if several function buttons are pressed, only the last pressed button is valid. In step 3, if a function button is pressed, the new function is selected and the programming procedure returns to the beginning of step 3. For the numeric codes, only the first three numbers entered are valid.
To clear the memory of the remote To clear all programmed and learned signals, do the following to reset the remote to factory settings. Press ?/1, AV ?/1 and MASTER VOL at the same time. The indicator flashes 3 times, then goes off. The numeric codes corresponding to the component and the maker of the component Use the numeric codes in the tables below to control nonSony conponents and also Sony components that the remote is normally unable to control. Since the remote signal that a component accepts differs depending on the model and year of the component, more than one numeric code may be assigned to a component. If you fail to program your remote using one of the codes, try using other codes.
The numeric codes are based on the latest information available for each brand. There is a chance, however, that your component will not respond to some or all of the codes. All of the functions on this remote may not be available when used with your particular component.
Press AV ?/1 while pressing down USE MODE. The indicator lights. Press the function button (including MONITOR) for the component you want to control. For example, if you are going to control a CD player, press CD. Press the numeric buttons to enter the numeric code (or one of the codes if more than one code exists) corresponding to the component and the maker of the component you want to control.

Structured Wiring

Description:
The Structured wiring system is a new approach to traditional wiring. By using highperformance wiring in a Home Run configuration, the homeowner is able to take advantage of current and future technologies. Traditionally, homes used low performance wire in a daisy chain method with minimal phone and television locations. The high performance wire provided in this package is Category 5 twisted pair for phone and Dual RG-6 Quad shield for video. This high quality wire is capable of passing the delicate, high speed, digital signals without degradation. The Home Run approach provides a single termination point (network interface panel) for all of the wiring. This wiring method allows for greater flexibility and configuration than traditional wiring methods. For example, multiple phone lines can be routed to various locations of the home.
Structured Wiring package includes:
1 Each - Network Interface Panel Standard Quantity - Telephone Outlet Utilizing Home Run Category 5 twisted pair wiring This wiring provides access of up to four lines (2 are standard) Ultra-High Bandwidth for delicate digital signals Reduction in crosstalk and static Standard Quantity - Video Outlet (TV Outlet) Utilizing Home Run Dual RG-6 Quad-Shielded cable This wiring provides the bandwidth to support any of the following: Cable TV (subscription required) (Some Cable Systems have an upper & lower band requiring full use of Dual RG-6) Digital Satellite System (subscription required) Local Antenna System (can be attic or roof mounted) HDTV Broadcasts (High-Definition Television) Please note: all TV outlets will be terminated with wall plates and the video distribution in the network interface panel will be configured for one incoming source.
Additional Home Office Workstation

Option 17509

Home Office Workstations are designed to support Internet access in the home. The homeowner should consider this option for any/all rooms they plan to have a computer, including home offices and childrens bedrooms. Each location has two types of wire installed in a Home Run configuration: One Category 5 twisted pair wiring and one Dual RG-6 quad shield cable. Having both types of wire in place allows the homeowner flexibility in getting connected to the Internet. The Category 5 wiring supports traditional modems via the telephone lines. The Dual RG-6 cable supports Cable modems, which provide significantly higher transmission rates. The homeowner should also consider Homenet outlets in any location where a TV and satellite decoder will be placed. In addition to the TV jack, a phone line must be plugged into the decoder as they have internal modems that down load periodically to the carrier, DirecTV. Satellite boxes will not be activated until dial tone is detected. In addition, a 20 amp dedicated circuit is run to this location.

Homenet Workstations include:
1 Each 20-amp dedicated electrical circuit. This will prevent interference and power fluctuations from other home appliances. (Provided by Electrician) 1 Home Run category 5 twisted pair wire This can be used for either standard voice lines or data lines Up to four separate phone lines can be accessed, two are standard. Phone lines can be used for modem access to the Internet, fax, or standard voice lines 1 Home Run Dual RG-6 coaxial cable This wire is high-bandwidth cable to handle digital transmissions Coaxial cable can be used for either of the following: Cable TV Digital Satellite System Local Broadcast channels via an attic mounted antenna HDTV (High-Definition Television) Cable modem for access to the Internet Home Office workstations are ideal for all satellite decoder locations. Satellite decoders require both a coaxial and telephone connection at all times Satellite access to the Internet requires both a coaxial and telephone connection to send and receive All wiring is Home Run to a Network Interface box for a neat termination point.

Home Office Workstation

Additional Telecommunication Outlet (Telephone Outlet)
Option 17507 Description:
The homeowner should consider this option for standard voice lines, fax machines, or modems. To ensure optimal performance, Category 5 wiring is used in a Home Run configuration. Traditionally, daisy-chained two-pair wire is used in new construction. Category 5 twisted pair wiring offers significantly higher performance and flexibility and reduces the likelihood of negative effects such as cross-talk, noise, and static. Category 5 twisted pair wiring consists of four twisted pair wires and therefore provides the flexibility of each outlet supporting four phone numbers.
1 Each - Home Run Category 5 twisted pair wiring from selected spot This wire is capable of supporting 4 telephone numbers. Upon move in, outlets will be configured for 2 lines. Note: Two-line service must be ordered from the phone company. Twisted pairs offers a reduction in the chance of crosstalk and static Ultra-High Bandwidth for passing digital signals Perfect for High-speed networks.

Note: in preparation for satellite TV, telephone outlets must be positioned next to TV outlets. Satellite decoders have internal modems and satellite providers will not activate systems until dial tone is detected.

Additional Distributed Video Outlet (TV Outlet)
Option 17508 Description:
The homeowner should consider this option for all television locations. Each TV outlet consists of Dual RG-6 quad shield cable. This high quality video cable can support any one of the following: cable TV, digital satellite, attic antennas and even HDTV broadcasts. RG-6 cable is designed to transfer digital signals to TVs without degrading the signal. By running the cable in a Home Run configuration, the video distribution can easily be re-configured, as changes are needed. This method is superior to the conventional daisy chain approaches.
1 Each Home Run Dual RG-6 coaxial cable from selected spot Able to pass digital signals without degradation high band width The ways we watch television, or even communicate with one another, are changing. Digital technology as well as convergence products (WebTV for example) are combining many products into one unit. Using lower performance wire today will limit the homeowners ability to take advantage of current and future technologies. HDTV (High-Definition Television) is being broadcast more and within several years will be the primary way the network TV stations are transmitted With lower performance cable, it will not be possible to see all of the advantages of digital source material: higher resolution, sharper picture, greater depth and better sound quality. Using RG-6 wire ensures you will be ready for the future. Note: in preparation for satellite TV, telephone outlets must be positioned next to TV outlets. Satellite decoders have internal modems and satellite providers will not activate systems until dial tone is detected.
