One S-video cable is needed for each component. When S-Video cable is used, composite video (yellow RCA connector) cable must also be connected for VCR recording. Note: Before plugging in the optical cable or S-Video cable, make sure to match the shape of the plug and jack, otherwise, you will not be able to plug in completely. DVD to S-VIDEO OUT (DVD) to VIDEO OUT (DVD) If you have a SAT receiver DVD player or CD player with a digital output, you can make use of an optical digital cable (not supplied) or coaxial digital cable (not supplied) to carry the audio portion of the signal and enjoy Dolby Digital sound quality. One optical or coaxial cable is needed for each SAT receiver, DVD player or CD player. When optical or coaxial cable is used, the analog audio cables are still needed if recording through a tape or VCR is desired. This receiver provides one optical and one coaxial digital input for the connection of your components. Please connect your components (e.g. DVD, SAT or CD) to the appropriate digital inputs and press DIGITAL INPUT to select the corresponding digital input source. Note: Optical and coax cables carry only the audio portion of the signal. A video connection must also be established for a SAT receiver and DVD player. S-video provides the best connection for the video portion of the signal. Composite video (yellow RCA connector) can also be used. It is important that the same type of cable (S-video or composite) that is connected from the Home Theater to the TV is used to connect the SAT receiver or DVD player to the Home Theater. to AUDIO OUT (SAT) to VIDEO OUT (SAT) to AUDIO OUT(DVD) SAT to S-VIDEO OUT (SAT) DIGITAL INPUT Connect components capable of outputing Dolby Digital (e.g. DVD or SAT) or standard PCM (CD) format digital signals.

The AM and FM antennas connect to the AM and FM terminals on the system's back panel. They must be hooked up in order to receive clear reception. 5 Getting Started Connecting the Speakers CENTER SPEAKERS CENTER Speaker wires 1 for each speaker, is needed for connection. Twist the stripped ends of speaker cord about 2/3 inch (15 mm). Press down on the tab to open the terminal and insert the wire. Release tab to lock wire in the terminal. FRONT SPEAKERS RIGHT LEFT GREEN / BLACK Use this jack on the left back panel to connect another active subwoofer other than the one supplied. CENTER FRONT SUB WOOFER SPEAKER PURPLE / BLACK BLUE / BLACK REAR REAR SUB WOOFER REAR SPEAKERS (SURROUND SOUND) Speakers There are 6 speakers equipped with the unit (2 front, 1 center, 2 rear, 1 subwoofer). In order to enjoy good surround effects, all six speakers need to be connected to the receiver. At least two front speakers (left and right) are required. For better sound quality, Center speaker, rear speakers and Subwoofer should also be connected. Adding center and rear speakers will enhance surround effects. Adding a Subwoofer will increase bass response. If you want to enjoy full range of sound effects, with small speakers, it is a must to use the subwoofer with the speakers to maintain adequate bass signal. Connect the L, R speakers at the back of the speakers to the corresponding color on the receiver. Do the same for center (with green/black terminal), rear speaker and the subwoofer (with purple/black terminal). 6 +- +- -+ -+ RED / BLACK GREY / BLACK -+ -+ Antenna and Speaker Wire Connection WHITE / BLACK Push terminal tab down to insert wire. Release tab to lock wire in the terminal. NOTE: Make sure the insulation is completely removed from the ends of the Antenna and speaker wires at all connection points. To ease speaker connections, the speaker wires and the terminals are color-coded. · White/Black (Front Left Speaker), · Red/Black (Front Right Speaker), · Green/Black (Center Speaker) · Blue/Black (Rear Left Speaker). · Grey/Black (Rear Right Speaker). · Purple/Black (Subwoofer) Speaker Polarity When connecting the speakers, make sure the polarities ("+" speaker wire to "+" on the receiver) of speaker wires and terminals are matched. If the wires are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass ("out of phase" effect). Connecting the Subwoofer Connect the subwoofer with the speaker wire (purple/ black) provided. This receiver offers a high flexibility for user to use a large variety of speakers and subwoofers. For more information please refer to section "Fine Setting of the Speakers" in "Advanced Sound Control" on page 21. Getting Started Positioning your speaker 1 Left, Right (Front Speakers) They carry primarily music and sound effects Alignment Align the center speaker evenly with (A), or slightly behind (B), the left and right speakers, but not ahead of them. EN 2 Center In surround mode, the center speaker carries much of the dialogue as well as music and effects. It should be set between the left and right speakers. 3 Surround (Rear Speakers) Their overall sound balance should be as close as possible to the front speakers. Proper placement is vital to establish an evenly distributed sound field. Subwoofer A subwoofer is designed to reproduce powerful low bass effects (explosions, the rumble of spaceships, etc.) which dramatically heightens involvement with the action on the screen. It is therefore recommended to connect subwoofers when small speakers are used. Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Advanced Setting Angle Placing the left and right speakers to form a 45degree angle with your favorite viewing position will duplicate the soundtrack mixer's perspective. Magnetic shielding Speakers placed less than two feet from the TV set must be magnetically shielded in order to prevent picture distortion. Front and center speakers provided with DPL660HT are magnetically shielded to protect your TV set. It is not recommended to place the rear speakers near the TV set. 3 1 2 Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Height 1 3 The three speakers should be as close as possible to the same height. This often requires placing the center speaker directly atop (A) or beneath (B) the TV set. A Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Front Speaker Placement Even if you can't duplicate this ideal home theater setup exactly, the suggestions for speaker placement that follow will help you get good results. B Courtesy Dolby Laboratories 7 Getting Started Preferred surround placement Location If possible, place surround speakers to either side of the listening area, not behind it. Advanced Setting Alternative Surround Placement Rear wall If rear wall mounting is the only choice, aim the speakers at each other (A), towards the front (B) or even towards the sidewalls (C, D). Experiment with placement until surround sounds seem to envelop you, rather than coming from behind you. Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Height If space permits, install surrounds 2-3 feet (60 - 90 cm) above viewers. This helps to minimize localization effects. Courtesy Dolby Laboratories No adjacent walls Surrounds can go on stands facing each other to approximate the preferred sidewall mounting (A), or to the sides or rear of the viewing area aimed upwards. In the latter case, they can go right on the floor, or preferably, a few feet off the floor such as on end tables (B). (60 - 90 cm) Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Aiming Aiming surrounds straight across the room, not down at viewers, helps create a more open, spacious surround sound field. Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Courtesy Dolby Laboratories 8 Getting Started Test Tone / Channel balance Channel balance Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels" from channel to channel, adjust the level controls until each channel plays at the same loudness level. Using Headphones To listen privately through your audio system, use the PHONES jack on the receiver. However, make sure you turn down the volume before you put on the headphones. Increase the volume to the desired level after headphones are in place. Once headphones are connected, "HEADPHONE DOWN MIX 2 CHANNEL" will scroll on display. This feature automatically converts multi-channel speaker outputs to 2 channel stereo for your listening pleasure. EN Hearing Comfort & Well-Being · Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play. · If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use. Courtesy Dolby Laboratories Level adjustment & surround channel level expectation Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find that on actual program material the surround channel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be tempted to readjust the surround level; program producers use surround mostly for subtle atmospherics and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if it did, it would soon become distracting.
