Important 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.
n 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.
“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 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 while the power
supply is connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.
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.
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.
n When using a banana plug
Tighten the speaker terminal firmly before
inserting the banana plug.
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.

(R) (L)
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.
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.)
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 tweeter
terminals.

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.
