ENGLISH
Connecting the Speaker Cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the AVR-2310CI,
and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.
1
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from the tip
of the speaker cable, then either twist the core
wire tightly or terminate it.
2
Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise
to loosen it.
3
Insert the speaker cable's core wire to the hilt
into the speaker terminal.
4
Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to tighten
it.
n When using a banana plug
Tighten the speaker terminal firmly before
inserting the banana plug.
Use speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms. When using front
A and B speakers simultaneously, use speakers with an impedance of
12 to 16 Ω/ohms.
NOTE
• Connect the speaker cables in such a way that they do not stick out
of the speaker terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if
the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each
other (v "Protection circuit").
• Never touch the speaker terminals
supply is connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.

About bi-amp connections
These connections make for higher quality playback sound with no
interference 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 a
connection example for the front B Bi-Amp speakers.)
Front speakers B
q
AVR-2310CI
When in the "Front A Bi-Amp" and "Front B Bi-Amp" modes, the
same signals are output from the front speaker terminals and the AMP
ASSIGN terminals.
NOTE
• Use speakers compatible with bi-amp connections.
while the power
• When making bi-amp connections, be sure to remove the short-
circuiting plate or wire between the speaker's woofer and tweeter
terminals.

mportant Information
n About HDMI
"HDMI" is the abbreviation of "High Definition Multimedia
Interface" . This interface allows transfer of digital video signals
and digital audio signals over a single HDMI cable.
"HDMI" , "HDMI logo" and "High-Definition Multimedia Interface"

Functions usable with HDMI connections
Deep Color
Eliminates on-screen color banding, for smooth tonal transitions and
subtle gradations between colors.
x.v.Color
Enables displays with natural, vivid colors. "x.v.Color" is a Sony
registered trademark.
Auto Lip Sync (vpage 31)
HDMI 1.3 incorporates an automatic video/audio synching capability
that allows devices to perform this synchronization automatically with
total accuracy.
HDMI control function (vpage 31, 54)
This function allows you to operate external devices from the receiver
and operate the receiver from external devices.
NOTE
• These functions will not work if the device connected to the HDMI
terminal does not support Deep Color or x.v.Color signal transfer or
the Auto Lip Sync function.
• The HDMI control function may not work depending on the device it
is connected to and its settings.
• You cannot operate a TV or Blu-ray Disc player / DVD player that is
not compatible with the HDMI control function.
n Copyright protection system (HDCP)
The AVR-2310CI supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents
Protection). HDCP is a copyright protection technology for digital video
signals. The devices connected to the AVR-2310CI must also support
HDCP .
NOTE
When a device that does not support HDCP is connected, video
signals are not properly output.
