1: Installing speakers
This receiver allows you to use a 5.1 channel 
speaker 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 sub woofer 
(5.1 channel).

screws.
Notes
 Use screws that are suitable for the wall material 
and strength. As a plaster board wall is especially 
fragile, attach the screws securely to a beam and 
fasten them to the wall. Install the speakers on a 
vertical and flat wall where reinforcement is 
applied. 
 Contact a screw shop or installer regarding the wall  material or screws to be used.
 Sony is not responsible for accident or damage  caused by improper installation, insufficient wall 
strength or improper screw installation, natural 
calamity, etc.

Notes on speaker cords
 The connector and the color tube* of the 
speaker cords are the same color as the 
speaker jack to be connected. When 
connecting a speaker cord, be sure to match 
the colored connector to the speaker jack on 
the receiver:
 The color tube* on the speaker cord  represents plus (+) in polarity, make sure that 
you connect it to plus (+) terminal on the 
speaker.
* The speaker cord which is attached to the sub 
woofer does not have color tube on it.
Note on speakers
To connect the speakers correctly, be sure to 
check the type of speakers by referring to the 
speaker label* at the rear panel or bottom of 
the speakers.
* The center speaker and sub woofer do not have the character on the speaker label. For details on the 
speaker type, see page 3.Connector Speaker jack

(Except for models of area code 
MX, E51, AR)
HDMI is the abbreviated name for High-
Definition Multimedia Interface. It is an 
interface which transmits video and audio 
signals in digital format. The sound is output from the TV speaker only
when a playback component and this receiver, 
as well as this receiver and the TV are 
connected via the HDMI jack. To output the 
sound from the supplied speakers and to take 
advantage of the multi channel surround 
sound, be sure to
– connect the digital audio jacks on the 
playback component to the receiver.
– turn off or mute the TV’s volume.
Notes on HDMI connections
 This receiver may not be able to transfer  video or audio signals with certain types of 
components.
 The multi/stereo area audio signals of a  Super Audio CD are not output.
 Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit 
length, etc.) transmitted from a HDMI jack 
may be restricted by the connected 
component. If the image is poor or no sound 
is output from the component connected via 
the HDMI cable, check the setup of the 
connected component.  Be sure to turn on the receiver, when video 
and audio signals of a playback component 
are being output to a TV through HDMI 
jacks of the receiver. Unless the power is on, 
neither video nor audio signals will be 
transmitted.
 For details on HDMI setup of the connected  component, refer to operating instructions 
supplied with the connected component.
