■ Connecting speaker cables

Speaker cables have two wires. One is for connecting

the negative (-) terminal of the unit and the speaker, and

the other is for the positive (+) terminal. If the wires are

colored to prevent confusion, connect the black wire to

the negative and the other wire to the positive terminal.

a Remove approximately 10 mm (3/8”) of insulation from

the ends of the speaker cable and twist the bare wires of

the cable firmly together.

b Loosen the speaker terminal.

c Insert the bare wires of the cable into the gap on the side

(upper right or bottom left) of the terminal.

d Tighten the terminal.

Using a banana plug

(U.S.A., Canada, China and Australia models only)

a Tighten the speaker terminal.

b Insert a banana plug into the end of the terminal.

2 Connecting speakers

Caution

• Remove the unit’s power cable from an AC wall outlet and turn

off the subwoofer before connecting the speakers.

• Ensure that the core wires of the speaker cable do not touch

one another or come into contact with the unit’s metal parts.

Doing so may damage the unit or the speakers. If the speaker

cables short circuit, “Check SP Wires” will appear on the front

display when the unit is turned on.

• Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo. We recommend using

a cable less than 5.0 m (16.4 ft) long to prevent signal quality

degradation.

• The unit’s HDMI jacks support the HDMI Control, Audio Return

Channel (ARC), and 3D and 4K Ultra HD video transmission

(through output) features.

• Use high speed HDMI cables to enjoy 3D or 4K Ultra HD videos.

■ Video jacks

❑ COMPONENT VIDEO jacks

Transmit video signals separated into three

components: luminance (Y), chrominance blue (P

B),

and chrominance red (P

R). Use a component video

cable with three plugs.

❑ VIDEO jacks

Transmit analog video signals. Use a video pin cable.

■ Audio jacks

❑ OPTICAL jacks

Transmit digital audio signals. Use a digital optical

cable. Remove the tip protector (if available) before

using the cable.

❑ COAXIAL jacks

Transmit digital audio signals. Use a digital coaxial

cable.

❑ AUDIO jacks

(Stereo L/R jacks)

Transmit analog stereo audio signals. Use a stereo pin

cable (RCA cable).

Connect a TV to the unit so that video input to the unit can be output to the TV. You can

also enjoy playback of TV audio on the unit.

To maximize the performance of the unit, we recommend connecting a TV with an HDMI

cable.

■ HDMI connection

Connect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable and a digital optical cable.

• You do not make a digital optical cable connection between the TV and the unit in the following cases:

– If your TV supports Audio Return Channel (ARC)

– If you will receive TV broadcasts only from the set-top box

• If you connect a TV that supports HDMI Control to the unit with an HDMI cable, you can control the unit’s

power and volume with the TV’s remote control.

To use HDMI Control and ARC, you need to configure the HDMI settings on the unit. For

details on the settings, see “Information on HDMI” (p.107).

■ Component / composite video connection

When connecting any video device with a component video cable, connect the TV to

the MONITOR OUT (COMPONENT VIDEO) jacks.

When connecting any video device with a video pin cable, connect the TV to the

MONITOR OUT (VIDEO) jack.

• If you connect your TV to the unit with a cable other than HDMI, video input to the unit via HDMI cannot be

output to the TV.

• Operations with TV screen are available only when your TV is connected to the unit via HDMI.

• If you will receive TV broadcasts only from the set-top box, you do not need to make an audio cable

connection between the TV and the unit.

❑ COMPONENT VIDEO connection

Connect the TV to the unit with a component video cable and a digital optical cable.

3 Connecting a TV

About Audio Return Channel (ARC)

• ARC allows audio signals to travel both ways. If you connect a TV that supports ARC to the unit with a

single HDMI cable, you can output video/audio to the TV or input TV audio to the unit.

• When using ARC, connect a TV with an HDMI cable that supports ARC.
