Getting Started 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). 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.
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.
2: Connecting speakers Getting Started Before connecting cords, be sure to disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead).
a) If you connect only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SPEAKERS SURROUND BACK/FRONT B/BI-AMP L terminals. b) If you are not using surround back speaker, and you have an additional front speaker system, connect the additional front speaker system to the SPEAKERS SURROUND BACK/FRONT B/ BI-AMP terminals. Set “SB Assign” to “Speaker B” in the Speaker Settings menu (page 73). You can select the front speaker system you want to use with SPEAKERS on the front panel (page 38).

Notes on connecting DIGITAL MEDIA PORT adapter • Do not connect or disconnect the DIGITAL MEDIA PORT adapter while the receiver is turned on. • Be sure to make DMPORT connections firmly, insert the connector straight in. • As the connector of the DIGITAL MEDIA PORT adapter is fragile, be sure to handle with care when placing or moving the receiver. • When connecting the DIGITAL MEDIA PORT adapter, be sure the connector is inserted with the arrow mark facing towards the arrow mark on the DMPORT jack.
4b: Connecting the video components Video input/output jacks to be connected This section describes how to connect your video components to this receiver. Before you begin, see “Component to be connected” below for the pages which describe how to connect each component. Before connecting cords, be sure to disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead). After connecting all your components, proceed to “5: Connecting the antennas (aerials)” (page 35). The image quality depends on the connecting jack.
Connecting components with HDMI jacks HDMI is the abbreviated name for HighDefinition Multimedia Interface. It is an interface which transmits video and audio signals in digital format. Sony recommends that you connect components to the receiver using an HDMI cable. With HDMI, you can easily enjoy both high quality sound and high quality images.

Notes on connecting cables • We recommend that you use an HDMI cable with the HDMI logo (made by Sony) for the HDMI jack corresponding to high speed (an HDMI version 1.3a, category 2 cable) when you view images or listen to sound during a Deep Color transmission or when you watch a video image of 1080p or higher. • We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable. When you connect an HDMI-DVI conversion cable to a DVI-D component, the sound and/or the image may not be output.
The following illustration shows how to connect a DVD player. It is not necessary to connect all the cords. Connect audio and video cords according to the jacks of your components. Tip Notes All the digital audio jacks are compatible with 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, and 96 kHz sampling frequencies. • The COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2 jacks have been assigned to the DVD player. If you connect your DVD player to the COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1 or IN 3 jacks, set “Input Assign” in the Input Option menu (page 109).
• To input multi channel digital audio from the Bluray disc player, set the digital audio output setting on the Blu-ray disc player. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the Blu-ray disc player. • When connecting optical digital cords, insert the plugs straight in until they click into place. • Do not bend or tie optical digital cords. Connecting a Blu-ray disc player The following illustration shows how to connect a Blu-ray disc player. It is not necessary to connect all the cords.
Notes • The COMPONENT VIDEO IN 3 jacks have been assigned to the satellite tuner. If you connect your satellite tuner to the COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1 or IN 2 jacks, set “Input Assign” in the Input Option menu (page 109). • When connecting optical digital cords, insert the plugs straight in until they click into place. • Do not bend or tie optical digital cords. The following illustration shows how to connect a satellite tuner or set-top box. It is not necessary to connect all the cords.
Notes Connecting components with analog video and audio jack • Be sure to change the factory setting of the VIDEO 1 input button on the remote so that you can use the button to control your DVD recorder. For details, see “Programming the remote” (page 117). • You can also rename the VIDEO 1 input so that it can be displayed on the TV screen and display.

x Dolby Digital Plus x Dolby TrueHD Dolby Digital Plus provides the flexibility and efficiency to deliver more channels of compelling surround sound for high-definition video media. Its superior coding efficiencies enable up to 7.1 channel of high-quality multi channel audio without negatively impacting bit budgets allocated for video performance or additional feature sets. Dolby TrueHD is Dolby’s lossless audio technology developed for high-definition optical discs.
x DTS-HD x Interlace Audio format which extends the conventional DTS Digital Surround format. This format consists of a core and an extension, and the core part has DTS Digital Surround compatibility. There are two kinds of DTS-HD, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio and DTS-HD Master Audio. DTS-HD High Resolution Audio has a maximum transmission rate of 6 Mbps, with lossy compression (Lossy), and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio corresponds to a maximum sampling frequency of 96 kHz, and a maximum of 7.1 channel.
x S-AIR (Sony Audio Interactive Radio frequency) Recent times have seen the rapid spread of DVD media, Digital Broadcasting, and other high quality media. To ensure that the subtle nuances of these high quality media are transmitted with no deterioration, Sony has developed a technology called “S-AIR” for the radio transmission of digital audio signals with no compression, and has incorporated this technology into the EZW-RT10/EZW-T100.
On placement • Place the receiver in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat buildup and prolong the life of the receiver. • Do not place the receiver near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical shock. • Do not place anything on top of the cabinet that might block the ventilation holes and cause malfunctions. • Do not place the receiver near equipment such as a TV, VCR, or tape deck.
