1 BEFORE USING

Pay attention to the following before using this unit:

- Moving the set

To prevent short circuits or damaged wires in the connection cords, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the connection cords between all other audio components when moving the set.

- Before turning the power switch on

Check once again that all connections are proper and that there are not problems with the connection cords. Always set the power switch to the standby position before connecting and disconnecting connection cords.

- Store this instructions in a safe place.

After reading, store this instructions along with the warranty in a safe place.

- Note that the Illustrations in this Instructions may differ from the actual set for explanation purposes.

② CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

Noise or disturbance of the picture may be generated if this unit or any other electronic equipment using microprocessors is used near a tuner or TV. If this happens, take the following steps:

- Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV.

- Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit's power cord and input/output connection cords.

- Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor antennas or 300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using outdoor antennas and 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cables.

For heat dispersal, leave at least 10 cm of space between the top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other components.

3 CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

- Switching the input function when input jacks are not connected

A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components to the input jacks.

- Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals

The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks and SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up is changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

- Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state, the apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage.

Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for, say, a vacation.

ENGLISH

When installing, carefully examine the place and method of installation for safety.

When using a stand, brackets, etc., follow the instructions included with the stand or brackets and check for safety before installing and using. Denon will accept no responsibility for damages or accidents caused by the unit falling.

Cautions on Installation

The quality of the sound produced from the speaker system is affected by the size and type (Japanese or Western) of the room, as well as by the method of installation. Consider the points listed below before installing the speaker system.

Note that placing the speaker system on the same stand or shelf as a record player may result in howling.
If there is a wall, glass door, etc., directly in front of or behind the speaker system, cover the wall or door with a thick curtain to prevent resonance and reflection.
The SYS-500SD speaker systems are of the low-leakage-flux type and can be used near televisions, but depending on the TV there may be color blotching on the picture. If this happens, turn off the TV's power, wait 15 to 30 minutes, then turn the TV's power back on. The TV's automatic degaussing circuit should reduce the blotching on the picture. If blotching persists, move the speaker further away.
The center speaker (SC-C500SD) is equipped with anti-slip pads upon shipment from the factory. If necessary, however, also apply the included anti-slip pads (cork, approximately 2 mm thick).
When placing the satellite speaker system (SC-A500SDI) on a stand, etc., stick the included anti-slip pads (cork, approximately 2 mm thick) at the four corners of the bottom surface. (Refer to the illustration below.)

[Bottom of SC-A500SD]
Stick the anti-slip pads (cork, approximately 2 mm thick) here.
Spaa brack

Stick the anti-slip pads (cork, approximately 2 mm thick) here.

When mounting the satellite speaker system (SC-A500SD) on a stand or bracket, M5 nuts are inserted into the bottom of the satellite speaker system (SC-A500SD) at intervals of 60 mm. When mounting, following the instructions in the manual included with the speaker stand or ceiling mount bracket, and be sure to install properly and securely.
When the satellite speaker system (SC-A500SD) is mounted on a ceiling mount bracket, it is turned upside down due to the installation angle. The Denon mark is also turned upside down, so detach the speaker net and reattach it in the opposite direction.

CAUTION:

  • To ensure safety, do not place any objects on top or lean objects against the speaker system.
  • The speaker may topple down or fall if force is applied to the sides. Be particularly careful to avoid this, as this could cause injury or other serious accidents.

WARNING:

  • When installing the speaker systems on the ceiling or wall, to ensure safety, have specialists do the installation work.
  • Be sure to fasten the speaker cords to a wall, etc., to prevent people from tripping over them or otherwise pulling on them accidentally, causing the speaker systems to fall.
  • Be sure to check for safety after installing the speaker systems. Afterwards, perform safety inspections at regular intervals to be sure there is no danger that the speaker systems will fall. Denon will accept no responsibility for damages or accidents caused by inappropriate choice of the place of installation or improper installation procedures.

Speaker stand/speaker bracket mount screw holes

Other Cautions

Note that color blotching may occur on a TV, etc., due to interaction with the speaker system if there is a magnet or an object generating magnetic force nearby.
Examples: (a) When there are magnets on the door of the rack, stand, etc.
(b) When a health device, etc., equipped with magnets is placed nearby. (c) When toys or other objects using magnets are placed nearby.

Note that the illustrations in this instructions may differ from the actual set for explanation purposes.

■Be sure to keep the operating instructions.

After reading these operating instructions, store them in a safe place. We also recommend filling in the necessary items on the back cover.

To avoid damaging the speakers with a sudden high-level signal, be sure to switch the power off before connecting the speakers.

  • The ADV-500SD's red speaker terminals are the "+" (positive) terminals and the black terminal's are the "-" (negative) terminals.
  • The "+" side of the speaker cable is marked to make it distinguishable from the "-" side of the cable. Connect this marked side to the red "+" terminal and the unmarked side to the black terminal.
  • Prepare the speaker cords for connection by stripping off approximately 10 mm or less (no more as this could cause a short-circuit) of the outer insulation.
    Twist the wires tightly together so that they are not straggly.

DENON DHT-500SD - CAUTION: - 1

DENON DHT-500SD - CAUTION: - 2

How to connect

Press the lever, insert the stripped and twisted end (approx. 3/6') of the cord, then release the lever: Make sure it is fastened securely by pulling the cord lightly.

CAUTION:

The metal portions of the two separate wires should not touch or an electrical short can occur. Shorted wires can create a fire hazard or induce a failure in your equipment.

Connection the speaker terminals

  1. Push the lever. 2. Insert the cord. 3. Return the lever.

Positioning of the Speakers

The positioning of speakers differs according to the size and acoustics of the listening room. While actually listening to a program source, try various speaker positions to determine which layout provides the best surround effect. Place the speakers connected to "L" to your left, and "R" to your right.

A Front speakers (SC-A500SD)

Place the front speakers in front of the listening position, to the left and right of a TV. Front speakers are required for all surround modes.

B Center speaker (SC-C500SD)

Place a center speaker between the front speakers, on or below the TV. This speaker stabilizes the sound image.

C Surround speakers (SC-A500SD)

Install these speakers above the level of the listener's ears, to the left and right. Do not install the surround speakers too far behind the listening position. It might be effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.

D Passive Subwoofer (DSW-500SD)

Reproduces powerful and deep bass sounds. Subwoofer are most effective when placed on or near the floor and in a corner of the room. Refer to the instructions that came with your subwoofer for placement suggestions.

E Surround back speakers (SURR. BACK SP.)

If you add the Surround back speaker(s), you can enjoy 6.1 ch surround sound or 7.1 ch surround sound, lex: DOLBY DIGITAL EX, DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx, DTS ES, DTS NEO 6, etc.)

(3) Connecting Antennas

DENON DHT-500SD - Connecting Antennas - 1

AM Indoor Loop Antenna

The high-performance AM loop antenna provided with this unit is sufficient for good reception in most areas.

To stand the loop antenna on a surface, fix the claw to the slot.

Connect the loop antenna's wires to the AM antenna terminals as shown.

(Connect the white wire to the upper terminal, and the black wire to the lower terminal.)

Place the antenna on a shelf, for example, or hang it on a window frame, etc., in the direction which gives the best reception, as far away as possible from the entire system, speaker cords and the power cord, to prevent unwanted noise.

If there is no room for the AM loop antenna, you may mount it on the wall using screws (not supplied).

DENON DHT-500SD - AM Indoor Loop Antenna - 2

AM Outdoor Antenna

If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver sufficient reception (often due to being too far from the transmitter or in a concrete building, etc.), it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM antenna.

Use an insulated wire more than 15 ft (5 m) long, strip one end, and connect this to the terminal as shown.

The antenna wire should be string outdoors or indoors near a window. For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a reliable ground.

Note:

Even when using an outdoor AM antenna, do not disconnect the AM loop antenna.

FM Indoor Antenna

Connect the lead-type FM antenna to the FM 75 Ω socket, extend the lead and fix it to a window frame or wall with thumbtacks, or the like, where reception is best.

DENON DHT-500SD - FM Indoor Antenna - 1

DENON DHT-500SD - FM Indoor Antenna - 2

FM Outdoor Antenna

In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to use an outdoor FM antenna. Generally, a 3-element antenna will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or more elements.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

- The included remote control unit (RC-973) can be used to operate not only this unit but other remote control compatible DENON components as well. In addition, the memory contains the control signals for other remote control units, so it can be used to operate non-DENON remote control compatible products.

(1) Inserting the batteries

① Remove the remote control unit's rear cover.
② Set three R6P/AA batteries in the battery compartment in the indicated direction.
③ Put the rear cover back on.

Diagram showing three-step assembly process of a device with labeled parts and directional arrows indicating motion.

Notes on Batteries

  • Use R6P/AA batteries in the remote control unit.
  • The batteries should be replaced with new ones approximately once a year, though this depends on the frequency of usage.
  • Even if less than a year has passed, replace the batteries with new ones if the set does not operate even when the remote control unit is operated nearby the set. (The included battery is only for verifying operation. Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.)
  • When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the proper direction, following the and marks in the battery compartment.

• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid

- Do not use a new battery together with an old one.

- Do not use two different types of batteries.

- Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in flames.

- Remove the batteries from the remote control unit when you do not plan to use it for an extended period of time.

- If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe the fluid off the inside of the battery compartment and insert new batteries.

- When replacing the batteries, have the new batteries ready and insert them as quickly as possible.

(2) Using the remote control unit

Approx. 7m / 22 feet 30° 30°

  • Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor on the main unit as shown on the diagram.
  • The remote control unit can be used from a straight distance of approximately 7 meters/22 feet from the main unit, but this distance will be shorter if there are obstacles in the way or if the remote control unit is not pointed directly at the remote sensor.
  • The remote control unit can be operated at a horizontal angle of up to 30 degrees with respect to the remote sensor.

NOTES:

  • It may be difficult to operate the remote control unit if the remote sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial light.
  • Do not press buttons on the main unit and remote control unit simultaneously. Doing so may result in malfunction.
  • Neon signs or other devices emitting pulse-type noise nearby may result in malfunction, so keep the set as far away from such devices as possible.

(3) TV and video deck preset memories

- Components of other brands can be operated with the included remote control unit by storing their codes in the preset memory. Note that depending on the model some operations may not be possible and some buttons may not operate properly.

NOTE:

Select "Large" or "Small" not according to the actual size of the speaker but according to the speaker's capacity for playing low frequency (approximately 100 Hz and below) signals. If you do not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting the volume to a level low enough so as not to damage the speakers) to determine the proper setting.

Parameters

LARGE...Select this when using speakers that can fully reproduce low sounds of below 100 Hz.
SMALL...Select this when using speakers that do not provide sufficient volume for playing low frequencies of 100 Hz and less. When this setting is made, frequencies below the frequency set at the subwoofer frequency setting are assigned to the subwoofer.
NONE... Select this when no speakers are installed.

YES/NO. Select "Yes" when a subwoofer is installed, "No" when a subwoofer is not installed.

If the subwoofer has sufficient low frequency playback capacity, good sound can be achieved even when "Small" is set for the front, center and surround speakers.

For the majority of speaker system configurations, using the SMALL setting for all five main speakers and Subwoofer. On with a connected subwoofer will yield the best results.

SURR. BACK

1 SP/2 SP/NONE ....Select the number of speakers to be used for the SURR. BACK speakers.

SPEAKER OUT

Select the output SURR. BACK/SUBWOOFER speaker terminals.

Subwoofer frequency (SW FREQ.)

- For the subwoofer frequency at the speaker setting screen, set the bass crossover frequency for playback from the subwoofer.

- Select "80 Hz", "100 Hz", "120 Hz" or "150 Hz" 1-6 dB for each). Bass sound below these frequencies is played from the subwoofer. (This is set to "150 Hz" by factory default.)

Assignment of low frequencies

  • In the Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS, and virtual surround modes, the low frequency signals for channels whose speaker settings are set to "Small" are assigned to the subwoofer. The low frequencies of channels set to "Large" are played from those channels.
    If set to "120 Hz", channels set to "Small" play sounds of 120 Hz and greater, while bass frequencies of under 120 Hz are played from the subwoofer.)
  • In surround modes other than the ones listed above, low frequencies below the frequency set at the subwoofer frequency setting are played from the subwoofer regardless of whether the speakers are set to "Large" or "Small".
  • Set the subwoofer frequency according to the low frequency playback abilities of your speakers and subwoofer.

Subwoofer mode (SW MODE)

  • The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when "LARGE" is set for the front speakers and "YES" is set for the subwoofer in the "SPEAKER CONFIGURATION" settings.
  • When the "LFE=MAIN" playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to "LARGE" are produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel. In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.
  • Selection of the "LFE" play mode will play the low frequency signal range of the channel selected with "LARGE" from that channel only. Therefore, the low frequency signal range that are played from the subwoofer channel are only the low frequency signal range of LFE only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal playback) and the channel specified as "SMALL" in the setup menu.
  • Select the play mode that provides bass reproduction with body.
  • When the subwoofer is set to "YES", bass sound is output from the subwoofer regardless of the subwoofer mode setting in surround modes other than Dolby/DTS.

  • When a Dolby Digital format signal is input, the surround mode automatically switches to the DOLBY DIGITAL mode.
  • When you press the SURROUND button, the sound and output signals (digital and analog) are cut off for a moment.
  • It is recommended to use a center speaker when operating unit in DTS/DOLBY DIGITAL/DOLBY PRO LOGIC II (PRO LOGIC III) Surround modes.

DOLBY DIGITAL EX

In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program.

This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels.

This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization than ever before.

Dolby Digital EX is not available in the system without surround back speakers).

DTS MODE(Dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music)

This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD. Note:6 is to some 2 channel signal source.

DTS

This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in DTS multi channel.

Playing multi-channel encoded 5.1 - channel DTS sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and Low Frequency Effect channel.

DTS-ES decoding is not available in this mode. The DTS mode cannot use when an analog input has been selected.

DENON DHT-500SD - DTS MODE(Dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music) - 1

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999.

In addition to the 6.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.

"DTS", "DTS-ES", "Neo:6" and "DTS 96/24" are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

NEO: 6 Cinema, NEO:6 Music

This mode decodes 2-channel signals into 6-channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix technology. The DTS NEO:6 decoder has near-discrete properties in the frequency characteristics of the channels as well as in channel separation.

According to the signals to by played back, DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:6 CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback or the NEO:6 MUSIC mode optimized for music playback.

Notes :

  • Neo:6 mode is available to 2ch input signal which is encodedDolby Digital or PCM format.
  • PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II brings the excitement of surround sound to any stereo mix, while making existing Dolby Surround mixes sound more like discrete 5.1 channels Surround sound.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx is an extension of DOLBY PRO LOGIC II technology. This highly sophisticated algorithm processes native stereo and 5.1-channel content to produce 6.1 or 7.1 output channels. And DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx is not available in the system without surround Beck Speaker(s).

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II (PRO LOGIC IIx) has below 3 modes.

Note :

• DOLBY PRO LOGIC II (PROLOGIC IIx) will not work on monaural source.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II (PRO LOGIC IIx) MUSIC

The Music mode creates a rich and enveloping surround ambience.....delivered to the subwoofer, optimizing the visceral of panned rear effects. This mode can only be used with 2-channel audio sources.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II (PRO LOGIC IIx) CINEMA

The CINEMA mode is optimized for movies or programs with Dolby Surround soundtracks. This mode is also appropriate for use with video game.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II (PRO LOGIC IIx) GAME

The Game mode was implemented to ensure that the bass impact from pure surround effects are fully delivered to the subwoofer, optimizing the visceral of panned rear effects. This mode can only be used with 2-channel audio sources.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC

This mode emulated original Dolay Pro Logic decoding.(3/1 surround) Suit for Dolay Surround encoded stereo movie soundtracks. This mode is available in the system without surround speakers).

CONCERT

The reverberation of this mode produces a sound field which recreates the sound of a stadium.

5 STEREO, 6 STEREO or 7 STEREO

The Front left channel signals are output to the surround and surround back signal left channels, the front right channel signals are output to the surround and surround back signal right channels, and the in-phase component of the left and right channels is output to the center channel.

Use this mode to enjoy stereo sound.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
