Multi channel input hookups
STR-DE595 only
Although this receiver incorporates a multi channel decoder, it is also equipped with multi channel
input jacks. These connections allow you to enjoy multi channel software encoded in formats other
than Dolby Digital and DTS. If your DVD player is equipped with multi channel output jacks, you
can connect them directly to the receiver to enjoy the sound of the DVD player’s multi channel
decoder. Alternatively, the multi channel input jacks can be used to connect an external multi channel
decoder.
To fully enjoy multi channel surround sound, five speakers (two front speakers, two surround
speakers, and a center speaker) and a sub woofer are required. Refer to the operating instructions
supplied with your DVD player, multi channel decoder, etc., for details on the multi channel
hookups.
Notes
When using the connections described below, adjust the level of the surround speakers and sub woofer from the
DVD player or multi channel decoder.
See page 13 for details on speaker system hookup.

Notes
Twist the stripped ends of the speaker cords about
10 mm (2/3 inch). Be sure to match the speaker
cord to the appropriate terminal on the components:
+ to + and – to –. If the cords are reversed, the
sound will be distorted and will lack bass.
If you use speakers with low maximum input rating,
adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive
output on the speakers.
To avoid short-circuiting the
speakers
Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage
the receiver. To prevent this, make sure to take
the following precautions when connecting the
speakers.
Make sure the stripped ends of each
speaker cord does not touch another
speaker terminal, the stripped end of
another speaker cord, or the metal parts of
the receiver.
Examples of poor conditions of the
speaker cord
Stripped speaker cord is touching another
speaker terminal.
Speaker system hookup (continued)
Stripped cords are touching each other
due to excessive removal of insulation.
Stripped cords are not fully attached and
are touching the rear panel of the receiver.
After connecting all the components,
speakers, and AC power cord, output
a test tone to check that all the
speakers are connected correctly.
For details on outputting a test tone,
see page 20.
If no sound is heard from a speaker while
outputting a test tone or a test tone is output
from a speaker other than the one whose name
is currently displayed on the receiver, the
speaker may be short-circuited. If this happens,
check the speaker connection again.
To avoid damaging your
speakers
Make sure that you turn down the volume
before you turn off the receiver. When you turn
on the receiver, the volume remains at the level
you turn off the receiver.

Performing initial setup
operations
Before using your receiver for the first time,
adjust SET UP parameters so that the receiver
correspond to your system. For the adjustable
parameters, see the table on page 47. See pages
15–20 for speaker settings and pages 35–36 for
other settings.
Multi channel surround
setup
For the best possible surround sound, all
speakers should be the same distance from the
listening position (A).
However, the receiver lets you place the center
speaker up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) closer (B)
and the surround speakers up to 4.5 meters
(15 feet) closer (C) to the listening position.
The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to
7.0 meters (3 to 23 feet) from the listening
position (A).
You can place the surround speakers either
behind you or to the side, depending on the
shape of your room (etc.). However, we
recommend that you place the surround
speakers behind you.
When placing surround speakers to your side
(long room)
Performing initial setup
operations
Once you have hooked up the speakers and
turned on the power, clear the receiver’s
memory. Then specify the speaker parameters
(size, position, etc.) and perform any other
initial setup operations necessary for your
system.
Tip
To check the audio output during settings (to set up
while outputting the sound), check the connection
(page 20).
Clearing the receiver’s
memory
Before using your receiver for the first time, or
when you want to clear the receiver’s memory,
do the following.
1 Turn off the receiver.
2 Hold down ?/1 for 5 seconds.
“INITIAL” appears in the display.
The following are reset to their factory

“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
However, if the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, you cannot set the surround
speakers to “LARGE”.
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
surround channel bass frequencies from the sub
woofer or other “LARGE” speakers.
If you do not connect surround speakers, select
“NO”.*

If you connect a sub woofer, select “YES”.
If you do not connect a sub woofer, select
“NO”. This activates the bass redirection
circuitry and outputs the LFE signals from other
speakers.
In order to take full advantage of the Dolby
Digital bass redirection circuitry, we
recommend that you set the cut off frequency
on the sub woofer as high as possible.

If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
front channel bass frequencies from the sub
woofer.
When the front speakers are set to “SMALL”,
the center and surround speakers are also
automatically set to “SMALL” (unless
previously set to “NO”).
When the sub woofer is set to “NO”, the front
speakers are automatically set to “LARGE” and
you cannot change this setting.

If you connect a large speaker that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies, select
“LARGE”. Normally, select “LARGE”.
However, if the front speakers are set to
“SMALL”, you cannot set the center speaker to
“LARGE”.
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
center channel bass frequencies from the front
speakers (if set to “LARGE”) or sub woofer.*

Multi channel surround setup
(continued)
Tip
Internally, the LARGE and SMALL settings for each
speaker determine whether the internal sound
processor will cut the bass signal from that channel.
When the bass is cut from a channel, the bass
redirection circuitry sends the corresponding bass
frequencies to the sub woofer or other “LARGE”
speakers.
However, since bass sounds have a certain amount of
directionality, it is best not to cut them, if possible.
Therefore, even when using small speakers, you can
set them to “LARGE” if you want to output the bass
frequencies from that speaker. On the other hand, if
you are using a large speaker, but prefer not to have
bass frequencies output from that speaker, set it to
“SMALL”.
If the overall sound level is lower than you prefer, set
all speakers to “LARGE”. If there is not enough bass,
you can use the BASS parameter in the TONE menu
to boost the bass levels. To adjust the bass, see page
28.

R
DIST.
X.X m (XX ft.))
Set the distance from your listening position to
the front speakers (A on page 15).
x Center speaker distance (
C
DIST. X.X
m (XX ft.))
Set the distance from your listening position to
the center speaker. Center speaker distance
should be set from a distance equal to the front
speaker distance (A on page 15) to a distance
1.5 meters (5 feet) closer to your listening
position (B on page 15).
x Surround speaker distance (
SL
SR
DIST. X.X m (XX ft.))
Set the distance from your listening position to
the surround speakers. Surround speaker
distance should be set from a distance equal to
the front speaker distance (A on page 15) to a
distance 4.5 meters (15 feet) closer to your
listening position (C on page 15).
Tip
The receiver allows you to input the speaker position
in terms of distance. However, it is not possible to set
the center speaker further than the front speakers.
Also, the center speaker cannot be set more than
1.5 meters (5 feet) closer than the front speakers.
Likewise, the surround speakers can not be set further
away from the listening position than the front
speakers. And they can be no more than 4.5 meters
(15 feet) closer.
This is because incorrect speaker placement is not
conducive to enjoy surround sound.
Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer
than the actual location of the speakers will cause a
delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In
other words, the speaker will sound like it is further
away.
For example, setting the center speaker distance
1~2 m (3~6 feet) closer than the actual speaker
position will create a fairly realistic sensation of being
“inside” the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory
surround effect because the surround speakers are too
close, setting the surround speaker distance closer
(shorter) than the actual distance will create a larger
sound stage.
Adjusting these parameter while listening to the
sound often results in much better surround sound.
Give it a try!

x Surround speaker placement (
SL
SR
PL. XXXX)*
This parameter lets you specify the height of
your surround speakers for proper
implementation of the Digital Cinema Sound
surround modes. Refer to the illustration below.
Select “PL. LOW” if the location of your
surround speakers corresponds to section A.
Select “PL. HIGH” if the location of your
surround speakers corresponds to section B.
* These parameters are not available when
“Surround speaker size (
SL
SR
)” is set to “NO”.
Tip
The surround speaker placement parameter is
designed specifically for implementation of the
Digital Cinema Sound modes with virtual elements.
With the Digital Cinema Sound modes, speaker
placement is not as critical as other modes. All modes
with virtual elements were designed under the
premise that the surround speaker would be located
behind the listening position, but presentation remains
fairly consistent even with the surround speakers
positioned at a rather wide angle. However, if the
speakers are pointing towards the listener from the
immediate left and right of the listening position, the
sound fields with virtual elements will not be as
effective.
Nevertheless, each listening environment has many
variables, like wall reflections.
Therefore, we recommend that you playback multi
channel surround encoded software and listen to the
effect each setting has on your listening environment.
Choose the setting that provides a good sense of
spaciousness and that best succeeds in forming a
cohesive space between the surround sound from the
surround speakers and the sound of the front
speakers. If you are not sure which sounds best, select
“PL. LOW” and then use the speaker distance
parameter and speaker level adjustments to obtain
proper balance.

Adjusting the speaker level
Use the remote while seated in your listening
position to adjust the level of each speaker.
Note
The receiver incorporates a new test tone with a
frequency centered at 800 Hz for easier speaker level
adjustment.
1 Press ?/1 on the remote to turn on the
receiver.
2 Press TEST TONE on the remote.
“T. TONE” appears in the display and you
will hear the test tone from each speaker in
sequence.
Front (left) t Center t Front (right) t
Surround (right) t Surround (left) t
Sub woofer
3 Adjust the speaker level and balance
using the LEVEL menu so that the level
of the test tone sounds the same from
each speaker.
For details on the LEVEL menu, see page
27.
While adjusting, the test tone is output from
the speaker whose adjustment is performed.
4 Press TEST TONE again to turn off the
test tone.
Tip
You can adjust the level of all speakers at the same
time. Press MASTER VOL +/– on the remote or turn
MASTER VOLUME on the receiver.
Notes
(STR-DE595 only) The test tone cannot be output
when the receiver is set to MULTI CH IN.
The adjusted value are shown in the display during
adjustment.
Although these adjustments can also be made via
the front panel using the LEVEL menu (when the
test tone is output, the receiver switches to the
LEVEL menu automatically), we recommend you
follow the procedure described above and adjust the
speaker levels from your listening position using the
remote.
