2ENGLISHGetting Started Playback Remote Control Information Troubleshooting SpecificationsMulti-ZoneSettingsConnecting DevicesNOTEThese functions will not work if the device connected to the HDMIterminal does not support Deep Color or x.v.Color signal transfer orthe Auto Lip Sync function.NOTEWhen a device that does not support HDCP is connected, videosignals are not properly output.Connecting Devices Equipped withHDMI terminalsImportant Informationn About HDMI“HDMI” is the abbreviation of “High Definition MultimediaInterface”. This interface allows transfer of digital video signalsand digital audio signals over a single HDMI cable.n Functions usable with HDMI connectionsDeep ColorEliminates on-screen color banding, for smooth tonal transitions andsubtle gradations between colors.x.v.ColorEnables displays with natural, vivid colors. “x.v.Color” is a Sonyregistered trademark.Auto Lip Sync (vpage 28)HDMI 1.3 incorporates an automatic video/audio synching capabilitythat allows devices to perform this synchronization automatically withtotal accuracy.HDMI control function (vpage 28, 49)This function allows you to operate external devices from the receiverand operate the receiver from external devices.“HDMI”, “HDMI logo” and “High-Definition Multimedia Interface”are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing LLC.NOTE• Connect the speaker cables in such a way that they do not stick outof the speaker terminals. The protection circuit may be activated ifthe core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch eachother (v “Protection circuit”).• Never touch the speaker terminals while the powersupply is connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.1 Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from the tipof the speaker cable, then either twist the corewire tightly or terminate it.2 Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwiseto loosen it.3 Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to the hiltinto the speaker terminal.4 Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to tightenit.Use speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms. When using frontA and B speakers simultaneously, use speakers with an impedance of12 to 16 Ω/ohms.Connecting the Speaker CablesCarefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the AVR-1910,and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.wq wq(R)(L)When in the “Front A Bi-Amp” and “Front B Bi-Amp” modes, thesame signals are output from the front speaker terminals and the AMPASSIGN terminals.About bi-amp connectionsThese connections make for higher quality playback sound with nointerference between the signals of the bass and treble units.When the amplifier assignment mode is set to “Front A Bi-Amp” or“Front B Bi-Amp”, connect as shown below. (The illustration shows aconnection example for the front B Bi-Amp speakers.)NOTE• Use speakers compatible with bi-amp connections.• When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-circuiting plate or wire between the speaker’s woofer and tweeterterminals.AVR-1910Front speakers Bn Copyright protection system (HDCP)The AVR-1910 supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital ContentsProtection). HDCP is a copyright protection technology for digital videosignals. The devices connected to the AVR-1910 must also supportHDCP.Connecting the SpeakersConnections
