This document serves as the Service Manual for the Sony BDV-N5200W, BDV-N7200W, BDV-N7200WL, BDV-N9200W, and BDV-N9200WL Blu-ray Disc™/DVD Home Theatre Systems. These systems are designed to provide a comprehensive home entertainment experience, integrating high-quality audio and video playback with surround sound capabilities. The manual, updated to version 1.1 as of March 2014, outlines the components, accessories, and revision history pertinent to servicing these models.
At its core, the BDV-N series functions as a complete home theatre system, centered around a Blu-ray Disc™/DVD receiver. This receiver acts as the hub for all audio and video processing, allowing users to play Blu-ray Discs, DVDs, and other media formats. The system is designed to deliver immersive surround sound through a configuration of multiple speakers: two front speakers, a center speaker, two surround speakers, and a subwoofer. The inclusion of a wireless amplifier for the surround speakers in certain models (TA-SA700WR for BDV-N5200W, TA-SA500WR for BDV-N9200W/N7200W, and TA-SA600WR for BDV-N9200WL/N7200WL) simplifies setup by reducing the need for long speaker cables running across the room.
The system supports various regional models, including US, Canadian, AEP (Europe), UK, Russian, Australian, Chinese, Saudi Arabian, Thai, E Model, Mexican, PX, Singapore, and Taiwan, indicating its global market reach and adaptability to different power requirements and language settings. The main unit, or receiver, is responsible for decoding audio and video signals, amplifying sound for the speakers, and providing connectivity for external devices.
The BDV-N series is designed for ease of use, offering features that enhance the home theatre experience. The Blu-ray Disc™/DVD receiver is the central control unit, allowing users to navigate menus, select media, and adjust settings. The system comes with a remote commander (various models like RM-ADP120W, RM-ADP120, RM-ADP118W, RM-ADP118, RM-ADP117 are listed, depending on the specific device model and region), providing convenient control from a distance.
For optimal audio performance, a calibration microphone is included with certain models (BDV-N7200W/N7200WL/N9200W/N9200WL). This microphone assists in automatically calibrating the speaker setup to the specific acoustics of the room, ensuring balanced and accurate surround sound. Connectivity options are robust, with a High Speed HDMI cable provided for high-definition audio and video transmission to a television or display. An FM wire antenna (aerial) is also included for radio reception, expanding the entertainment options beyond disc playback.
The modular design, with separate front, center, surround, and subwoofer units, allows for flexible placement within a room to achieve the desired surround sound effect. Stands and bases are provided for the speakers, ensuring stability and proper positioning. The wireless amplifier for surround speakers is a significant convenience feature, eliminating the clutter of wires and simplifying the installation process, particularly for rear speakers. The system also supports Hi-Res Audio, indicating its capability to reproduce high-fidelity sound, appealing to audiophiles.
While this service manual primarily focuses on technical aspects for repair and maintenance by qualified personnel, it implicitly highlights features that contribute to the longevity and serviceability of the device. The detailed breakdown of component names and part numbers (e.g., specific speaker models, remote commanders, cables, and stands) is crucial for identifying and replacing faulty parts. This modularity ensures that individual components can be serviced or replaced without necessarily needing to replace the entire system.
The inclusion of various instruction manuals (English, French, Spanish, Russian/Ukrainian, Arabic, Traditional Chinese, Thai, Simplified Chinese, Persian) for different regions suggests comprehensive user support, which can help users troubleshoot minor issues before requiring professional service. The "Quick Setup Guide" and "Speaker Installation Guide" further aid in correct initial setup, which is a form of preventative maintenance, ensuring the system operates as intended from the start.
The revision history, documenting changes like the addition of new regional models and part number updates, is vital for service technicians to ensure they are working with the most current information and correct components for repairs. The explicit mention of color variations (Black for BDV-N5200W/N7200W/N9200W and White for BDV-N7200WL/N9200WL) helps in ordering the correct aesthetic parts for repairs or replacements. Although not explicitly stated as a maintenance feature, the robust design and the availability of detailed service information contribute to the overall maintainability and extended lifespan of the BDV-N series home theatre systems.
