are two CENTER jacks, use either jack for a

single center channel or both if you have two

center channels. In six or seven channel sys-

tems, you will make one or two additional

connections for center back speaker(s). These

jacks are labeled CB1 and CB2. Use CB1 for

a single center back channel.

Make sure that you have each output connected

to the correct amplifier channel (front right, left

rear, etc.).

AM Antenna

See Figure 11

The RSX-1056 includes a plastic loop antenna

to receive AM radio signals. Remove this

antenna from the box and locate it near the

RSX-1056. It can be tacked to a wall, using

the mounting tab provided. Alternatively, you

can fold the center portion of the antenna to

form a tabletop stand.

Connect the 300 ohm twin-conductor wire from

the loop antenna to the push terminals labeled

AM LOOP, attaching one wire to each termi-

nal. It does not matter which wire attaches to

which terminal, but make sure that the con-

nections are solid and that the two wires do

not touch.

You may need to rotate or otherwise reorient

the antenna to find the best position.

NOTE

: To use an outdoor antenna, connect its

300 ohm twin-conductor wire to the termi-

nals in place of the loop antenna.

FM Antenna

See Figure 11

The RSX-1056 is supplied with a T-shaped in-

door FM antenna. Connect the coax F-type plug

to the FM antenna connector on the RSX-1056.

For best reception, unfold the T-shaped antenna.

Eyelets at both ends of the T allow tacking the

antenna to a wall, if desired. Experiment with

positioning for best reception.

NOTE

: To use an outdoor antenna, connect its

75 ohm coax lead wire to the FM connector

instead of the indoor wire antenna, only af-

ter a professional contractor has installed the

antenna system in accordance with local elec-

trical codes.

OPERATING THE RSX-1056

Considering its large number of features, set-

tings, and options, the RSX-1056 is remark-

ably easy to operate. The key to operating the

RSX-1056 is its system of On-Screen Displays

(OSD) which guide you through various

choices.

The RSX-1056 can be operated from the front

panel or the remote control. Front panel con-

trols are unusually simple to use, with just a

few knobs and buttons to guide you through

OSD menu options. The remote control pro-

vides more complete control options.

To guide you through the operation of the

RSX-1056, this section of the manual starts with

explaining the basic layout and function of the

front panel and the remote control. Then, we

explain the basic operations such as turning

the unit on and off, adjusting volume, select-

ing a source for listening, etc. Following that

is a detailed explanation of surround sound

modes and how to configure the RSX-1056

for various types of recordings. Finally, there

are instructions for additional features and Zone

2 operations. All of these are features that may

be used in normal use. The last section of the

manual (Configuration) details options that may

be selected during initial setup and configu-

ration of the unit, many of which will be set

once and left untouched.

Throughout this manual, numbers in gray boxes

refer to the RSX-1056 illustration at the front

of this manual. Letters refer to the RR-1050 re-

mote illustration. When both appear, the func-

tion is found on both the RSX-1056 and the

remote. When only one appears, that func-

tion is found only on the RSX-1056 or the re-

mote.

Front Panel Overview

The following is a brief overview of the con-

trol and features on the front panel of the

RSX-1056. Details concerning the use of these

controls are provided in subsequent sections

of this manual describing various tasks.

Front-panel Display

The fluorescent (FL) display in the upper por-

tion of the RSX-1055 provides information about

the status of the unit, tuner reception, and ac-

tivation of special features. The main portion

of the display typically shows the current in-

put source (or radio station frequency) selected

for listening on the left side and the current

input source selected for recording on the right.

Icons along the left side of the display show

the currently selected digital input. Icons at the

right of the display show individual surround

channels and are used in configuring the sys-

tem. Icons across the bottom of the display show

the current surround mode and other special

features. Icons at the top of display assist in

tuning radio stations and operation of RDS/

RBDS features.

The FL display can be turned off, if desired.

See the MENU button section for instructions.

Remote Sensor

This sensor receives IR signals from the remote

control. Do not block this sensor.

NOTE

: The remainder of the buttons and con-

trols on the front panel are described in the

Overview of Buttons and Controls section.

Remote Control Overview

The RSX-1056 includes a full-function learn-

ing remote control that can operate the

RSX-1056 plus nine other audio/video com-

ponents.

A separate manual gives detailed instructions

on programming and using the RR-1050 to

replace all of the remote controls in your sys-

tem. The RR-1050 manual covers many extra

features (such as custom labeling of remote

buttons that appear in its LCD display). To avoid

duplication, we provide only basic informa-

tion about using the RR-1050 to operate the

RSX-1056 in this manual.
