After unpacking the unit, and placing it on a solid

surface capable of supporting its weight, you will

need to make the connections to your audio and

video equipment.

Audio Equipment Connections

here are two formats for audio connections:

digital and analog. Digital audio signals are of

higher quality, and are required for listening to

sources encoded with digital surround modes,

such as Dolby Digital and DTS. There are three

types of digital audio connections: HDMI, coaxial

and optical. HD-DVD(R) or Blu-Ray(R) players

with Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby True HD, DTS-HD

Master Audio and DTS-HD require an HDMI con-

ection for the transfer of digital audio. Any one

type of digital audio connection may be used for

other source devices, but never more than one

for the same source. However, it’s okay to make

both analog and digital audio connections at the

same time to the same source.

Since the AVR is capable of processing the audio

and video portions of an HDMI signal, if your

video display device has an HDMI input, you

may make a single HDMI connection from your

source device (such as a DVD player) to the AVR.

In that case no separate digital audio connection

is required.

We recommend that you use high-quality inter-

connect cables when making connections to

source equipment and recorders to preserve the

integrity of the signals.

When making connections to audio source

equipment or speakers it is always a good

practice to unplug the unit from the AC wall

outlet. This prevents any possibility of

accidentally sending audio or transient signals to

the speakers that may damage them.

HDMI Connections

HDMI

™

is the abbreviation for High-Definition

Multimedia Interface, which is quickly becoming

the standard connection point between

advanced video/audio source products and

displays, particularly for high-definition video

signals. HDMI is a digital connection, eliminating

the need to convert signals back and forth from

digital to analog to deliver a higher quality

signal when used with digital sources. The

signals carried on HDMI may, but do not always,

include audio, offering the possibility of a

complete one-wire connection from a source to

the AVR. However, it is important to note that

there are a number of different versions of the

HDMI standard in use. Before connecting any

HDMI products to your AVR, it is helpful to find

out in advance their level of HDMI connectivity.

Some source or display components in your

system may use DVI (Digital Video Interface) for

digital video connections. DVI carries the same

digital video signals as HDMI but uses a larger

connector and does not transport audio or

control signals. In most cases, you may mix and

match DVI and HDMI digital video connections

y using optional connector adapters. Note,

however, that some DVI-equipped video displays

are not compatible with the HDCP copy protec-

tion coding that is increasingly carried with

signals connected via HDMI. If you have an

HDMI source and a DVI-equipped display, you

may occasionally be unable to view a program if

the display does not include HDCP. This is not

the fault of the AVR or your source; it simply

indicates that the video display is not compatible.

HDMI Input Connections

The different “Version” levels of HDMI define

which type of audio signals it is compatible with.

Based on the lowest level of HDMI among your

sources, the connections to the AVR should be

made as follows:

• HDMI 1.0 sources carry digital video and

multichannel or 2-channel PCM audio signals

only. Connect the HDMI output of a 1.0 source

to either of the HDMI Inputs

on the AVR.

If the product is a DVD-Audio player or other

source that has multichannel analog audio

outputs, connect them to the 8-Channel

Direct Inputs

. With an HDMI 1.0 source,

particularly a DVD player, make certain

that the menus in the source device are set to

“Bitstream Out” or “Original” so that 5.1

digital audio is available. If you find that 5.1

Dolby Digital or DTS audio is not available on

the HDMI connection, it will be necessary to

make an additional connection between the

source and the AVR 255/AVR 355 to either the

Coaxial

NÓ

or Optical

Digital

Inputs.

• HDMI 1.1 sources carry the multichannel

digital audio output from DVD-Audio players

in addition to the digital video. If you have an

HDMI 1.1-equipped product, the only connec-

tion needed for listening in the main room is

from the HDMI output of the source to either

of the HDMI Inputs

on the AVR. If the

player has SACD, HD-DVD or Blu-ray

capability, you will need to connect the analog

outputs of the source to the 8-Channel

Direct Inputs

• HDMI 1.2 (and higher) sources should be

connected as shown above for HDMI 1.1,

except that a separate analog connection is

not needed for SACD players.

HDMI 1.3 sources should be connected as

shown above for HDMI 1.1, except that a sep-

arate analog connection is not needed for

ACD, HD-DVD or Blu-ray players.

In addition, the AVR will convert analog video

signals to the HDMI format, upscaling to high-

definition 720p or 1080p resolution.You may

iew the AVR’s own on-screen display menus

using the HDMI output.

HDMI cable runs are usually limited to about

3 meters. The AVR incorporates a repeater, which

allows an additional 3 meters of cable between

the source device and the video display.

If your video display or source device is not

HDMI-capable, you will need to use either a

coaxial or optical digital audio connection and

one of the analog video connections (composite,

S- or component video), if available, as described

in the next paragraphs.

• It is not possible to feed an analog composite

or S-video signal to a recorder or the AVR’s

multizone system when an HDMI input is in

use. If an HDMI-equipped source also has ana-

log audio and video outputs, connect them to

the Video 2 or Video 3 Video

and

Audio

on the AVR.

• In some instances, HDMI-equipped sources

will not permit more than one video output at

a time, and thus you cannot use the same

source in the main listening room and with the

recorder or remote zone at the same time. This

is not a fault of the AVR, but rather a function

of the content protection systems that are part

of the HDMI standard.

HDMI Output Connections

Connect the HDMI Output

to an HDMI

input on your video display. Thanks to the

AVR 255/AVR 355’s video processing system, all

video input signals are converted to an HDMI

output, so only one connection is required

between the AVR and your display.
