Getting Started
1: Installing speakers
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).
Example of a 5.1 channel speaker system configuration
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).

Tips
• When you connect a 7.1 channel speaker system, the angle A should be the same.
• 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.

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 connections a)
• Polarity of speakers
• Speaker distance a)
• Speaker size a)
• Speaker level
• Frequency characteristics a)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 68).
Before you perform Auto
Calibration
Before you perform the Auto Calibration, set
up and connect the speakers (page 16–18).
• 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 66) before you perform
Auto Calibration.
• When you use front speakers B connection, set “SB Assign” to “Speaker B” in the
Speaker Settings menu (page 66) before you
perform Auto Calibration.
• If you want to use surround amplifier, be sure to pair the surround amplifier to S-AIR main unit before you perform Auto
• Select the seating position as position 1, 2 or
3 to save the Auto Calibration result (page
Notes
• The Auto Calibration function does not work in the following cases.
– Headphones are connected
– SPEAKERS is set to off.
• If you activate the muting function during Auto
Calibration, the muting function will automatically be set to off.
