08 Control with HDMI function Setting the PQLS function PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) is a digital audio signal transfer control technology using the Control with HDMI function. It offers higher-quality audio playback by controlling audio signals from the receiver to a PQLS compatible player, etc. This enables removing jitter that has a negative effect on the quality of the sound and is generated upon transmission. ! On players compatible with PQLS Bit-stream, PQLS always works for all sources. ! On players compatible with PQLS Multi Surround, PQLS works for all sources. Set the player's audio output to Linear PCM. ! On players compatible with PQLS 2 ch Audio, PQLS only works when playing CDs. Please refer to the operating instructions supplied with your player for more information. This function is activated when Control is set to ON. ! If a listening mode other than AUTO SURROUND, ALC, DIRECT, PURE DIRECT, OPTIMUM SURR or STEREO is selected while the PQLS effect is enabled, the PQLS effect is disabled. ! When this receiver is connected by HDMI cable to a Pioneer player that is compatible with the PQLS function via HDMI connection and HDMI reauthentication is performed (the HDMI indicator blinks), the PQLS effect is enabled and the listening mode is set to AUTO SURROUND if a listening mode other than AUTO SURROUND, ALC, DIRECT, PURE DIRECT, OPTIMUM SURR or STEREO is selected. % Set the remote control to the receiver operation mode, then press PQLS to select the PQLS setting. The setting is displayed on the front panel display. ! PQLS AUTO - PQLS is enabled. A precision quartz controller in this receiver eliminates distortion caused by timing errors (jitter), giving you the best possible digital-to-analog conversion when you use the HDMI interface. This is valid as an HDMI function for PQLScompatible players. ! PQLS OFF - PQLS is disabled. About Auto Sound Retriever Link and Stream Smoother Link These are automatic functions allowing you to output optimum audio and video signals from the receiver using the Control with HDMI function.

with HDMI-
compatible component (Blu-ray Disc player,
etc.) and compatible TV are connected. In this
case, the receiver’s power turns on and the
HDMI
indicator lights.
Setting the PQLS function
PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) is a
digital audio signal transfer control technology
using the
Control
with HDMI function. It offers
higher-quality audio playback by controlling
audio signals from the receiver to a PQLS com-
patible player, etc. This enables removing jitter
that has a negative effect on the quality of the
sound and is generated upon transmission.
!
On players compatible with PQLS Bit-stream,
PQLS always works for all sources.
!
On players compatible with PQLS Multi
Surround, PQLS works for all sources. Set the
player’s audio output to Linear PCM.
!
On players compatible with PQLS 2 ch Audio,
PQLS only works when playing CDs.
Please refer to the operating instructions sup-
plied with your player for more information.
This function is activated when
Control
is set
