Memory Backup

The AV receiver uses a battery-less memory backup system in order to retain radio presets and other settings when it's unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no batteries are required, the AV receiver must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system. Once it has been charged, the AV receiver will retain the settings for several weeks, although this depends on the environment and will be shorter in humid climates.

Placement

• The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood and is therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity, do not put it in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may be damaged.
• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause damage, will affect the sound quality.
• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or tilted position.
• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable, CD player or DVD player, otherwise lower the unit's output level.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-360F/SKF-318F and SKC-360C/SKC-318C feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations, however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which case you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration effects. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetizing tool that's too close to your TV or monitor.

Do not place SKM-360S/SKM-318S close to TV or a computer monitor because they have no magnetic shield.

Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the specified input power when used for normal music reproduction. If any of the following signals are fed to them, even if the input power is within the specified rating, excessive current may flow in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:

1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.
2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.
3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, electronic musical instrument, and so on.
4. Amplifier oscillation.
5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.
6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or disconnecting audio cables (Always turn off your amplifier before connecting or disconnecting cables.)
7. Microphone feedback.

Setting the Voltage Selector (on some models)

Some models have a voltage selector switch for compatibility with power systems around the world. Before you plug in this model, make sure that the voltage selector is set to the correct voltage for your area. If it isn't, use a small screwdriver to set it as appropriate. For example, if the voltage in your area is 120 volts, set the selector to "120V." If it's between 220 and 240 volts, set it to "220-240V."

Installing the Batteries

1 To open the battery compartment, press the small hollow and slide open the cover.

2 Insert the two supplied batteries (AA/R6) in accordance with the polarity diagram inside the battery compartment.

3 Slide the cover shut.

Notes:

• If the remote controller doesn't work reliably, try replacing the batteries.
• Don't mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries.
• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.
• Expired batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

Using the Remote Controller

To use the remote controller, point it at the AV receiver's remote control sensor, as shown below.

Notes:

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.
• Don't put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller, because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby draining the batteries.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.
• The remote controller will not work if there's an obstacle between it and the AV receiver's remote control sensor.

Speaker Sets A and B

You can use two sets of speakers with the AV receiver: speaker set A and speaker set B .

Speaker set A should be used in your main listening room for up to 5.1-channel playback.

*While speaker set B is on, speaker set A is reduced to 2.1-channel playback.

Speaker set B can be used in another room and offers 2-channel stereo playback.

Speaker set A	Speaker set B	Indicator	Output
On	On	A B	Set A: 2.1 channels Set B: 2 channels
	Off	A	Set A: 5.1 channels
Off	On	B	Set B: 2 channels
	Off		No sound

Speaker Set A: Main Room

Center speaker (SKC-360C)

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. For movies it's used mainly for dialog.

Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

• While speaker set B is on, this speaker outputs no sound.

Front left and right speakers (SKF-360F L/R)

These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward.

Subwoofer (SKW-360)

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way along the wall, as shown.

Speaker Set B: Sub Room

Surround left and right speakers (SKM-360S L/R)

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2-3 feet (60-100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

• While speaker set B is on, these speakers output no sound.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

• You can connect speakers with an impedance of 6 ohms or higher. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (-) terminals to only negative (-) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Don't connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
• Don't connect one speaker to several terminals.

Connecting Speaker

The AV receiver's positive (+) speaker terminals are color-coded for ease of identification. (The negative (-) speaker terminals are all black.)

Speaker terminal	Color
Front left	White
Front right	Red
Center	Green
Surround left	Blue
Surround right	Gray
Subwoofer	Purple

1 Strip 3 / 8'' (10 mm) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables. (Supplied speaker cables are already stripped.)

2 While pressing the lever, insert the wire into the hole, and then release the lever. Make sure that the terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.

The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals.

Wall Mounting

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots. To prevent the speaker from vibrating against the wall, attach two of the supplied thick rubber stoppers to the rear of each speaker.

To mount the front or surround speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that's securely screwed into the wall.

HTP-360 Front/Surround speakers (SKF-360F/SKM-360S)

HTP-318 Front/Surround speakers (SKF-318F/SKM-318S)

To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two keyhole slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws that are securely screwed into the wall.

Center speaker (SKC-360C/SKC-318C)

Caution:

A mounting screw's ability to support a speaker depends on how well it's anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.

Use screws with a head diameter of 5 / 16'' (9 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1 / 8'' (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

Leave a gap of between 3 / 16'' (5 mm) and 7 / 16'' (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown. (We recommend that you consult a home installation professional.)

Using Speaker Mounts/Brackets

Threaded inserts for machine screws are provided on the rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with commercially available speaker mounts or brackets. North American models require 1/4-inch screws. Other models require M5 (5 mm) screws. Refer to the manual supplied with your mounts or brackets for installation details.

Note:

• The portion of the screw that goes into the speaker's threaded insert should be between 1/4'' - 5/16'' (5 mm - 8 mm) long.

Using the Rubber Stoppers for a More Stable Platform

We recommend using the provided rubber stoppers to achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The rubber stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, providing a more stable platform. Use thick stoppers for the center speaker, and thin stoppers for the other speakers.

Using the Floor Pads for Subwoofer

If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor (wood, vinyl, tile, etc.) and playback is very loud, the subwoofer's feet may damage the flooring. To prevent this, place the supplied pads underneath the subwoofer's feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna, and how to connect commercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas. The AV receiver won't pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.

Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna

The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.

1 Attach the FM antenna, as shown.

American Model

Other Models

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you'll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

2 Fully extend the antenna and point it in various directions to find the best reception. Secure it in that position with thumb-tacks or something similar.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 25).

Connecting the AM Loop Antenna

The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.

1 Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting the tabs into the base, as shown.

2 Connect both wires of the AM loop antenna to the AM push terminals, as shown.

(The antenna's wires are not polarity sensitive, so they can be connected either way around).

Make sure that the wires are attached securely and that the push terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you'll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 25).

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

Notes:

• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.
• For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.
• Outdoor antenna should be located away from possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.
• For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.
• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It's best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside horizontally, but good results can sometimes be obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

About AV Connections

• Before making any AV connections, read the manuals supplied with your other AV components.
• Don't connect the power cord until you've completed and double-checked all AV connections.

Optical Digital Jacks

The AV receiver's optical digital jack has shutter-type cover that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when it's removed. Push plugs in all the way.

Caution: To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.

AV Connection Color Coding

RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled "R"). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled "L"). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.

• Push plugs in all the way to make good connections (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions).
• To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables.

Multichannel analog audio cable (RCA)		FRONT SURROUND CENTER DVD SUBwoofer	This cable carries multichannel analog audio and is typically used to connect DVD players with a 5.1-channel analog audio output. Several standard analog audio cables can be used instead of a multichannel cable.

Note: The AV receiver does not support SCART plugs.

Connecting Both Audio & Video

By connecting both the audio and video outputs of your DVD player and other AV components to the AV receiver, you can select both the audio and video simultaneously simply by selecting the appropriate input source on the AV receiver.

Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide. For video components, such as a DVD player, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.

Video Connection Formats

Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver using one of the following video connection formats: composite video, or component video, the latter offering the best picture quality.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn't convert between formats, so only outputs of the same format as the input will output the signal.

For example, if you connect your DVD player to the COMPONENT VIDEO DVD IN, a video signal will be output by the COMPONENT OUT, but not by any composite video outputs.

Video Input/Output Diagram

Audio Connection Formats

Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver using the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, and multichannel.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver doesn't convert between formats.

For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL digital input are not output by the analog TAPE OUT, so if you want to record from, for example, your CD player, in addition to connecting it to a digital input, you must also connect it to the analog CD IN.

Audio Input/Output Diagram for Recording

Connecting a DVD Player

Step 1: Video Connection (DVD Player to AV Receiver to TV)

A If your TV has component video input jacks, connect your DVD player to the AV receiver's COMPONENT VIDEO DVD IN jacks. And connect the AV receiver's COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to your TV. This will provide better picture quality than connection B.
If your TV doesn't have component video input jacks, connect your DVD player to the AV receiver's DVD IN VIDEO jack. And connect the AV receiver's MONITOR OUT VIDEO jack to your TV.

Connecting an Onkyo RI Dock for the iPod

Not all iPods output video.

For information about which iPod models are supported by the RI Dock, see the RI Dock's instruction manual.

If Your iPod Supports Video:

If Your iPod Doesn't Support Video:

• If you connect the RI Dock's AUDIO OUT L/R jacks to the AV receiver's TAPE IN jacks and also want to connect the RI Dock's VIDEO OUT jack to the AV receiver:
  Connect the RI Dock's VIDEO OUT jack to an unused video input on the AV receiver. Do not connect it to the COMPONENT VIDEO jackets. To watch an iPod slideshow or video, select the video input source first, and then select the TAPE input source. The AV receiver will output the audio being fed to the TAPE input, and because the video source doesn't change when the TAPE input source is selected, it'll continue to output the video being fed to the video input.
• What to do if you already have a component connected to the AV receiver's VIDEO 3 IN or TAPE IN jacks:

You can connect the RI Dock to an unused AV input on the AV receiver, however, you will not be able to control your iPod with the AV receiver's remote controller, as the RI functionality will be unavailable. The VIDE 3 IN and TAPE IN jacks are especially designed for use with the RI Dock.

Notes:

• If you have an Onkyo DS-A1 RI Dock, connect its S-VIDEO jack directly to an S-Video input on your TV.
• Set the RI Dock's RI MODE switch to HDD or HDD/DOCK.
• Set the AV receiver's Input Display to HDD (see page 38).
• See the RI Dock's instruction manual for more information.
• When the AC adapter is unplugged or not connected to the RI Dock, the RI Dock will output no sound or video, RI functions will not work, and your iPod's battery will not be charged.
• Connect the supplied RI cable to only RI jacks. Do not connect headphones to the RI jack, as it will damage your equipment.

Connecting a Cassette, CDR, MiniDisc, or DAT Recorder

a Connect your recorder's audio input jacks to the AV receiver's TAPE OUT L/R jacks, and connect your recorder's audio output jacks to the AV receiver's TAPE IN L/R jacks. With connection a, you can play and record with the recorder.
b If your recorder has a coaxial digital output jack, connect it to the AV receiver's DIGITAL IN COAXIAL jack, and set the DIGITAL INPUT assignment to COAX (see page 38).
c If your recorder has an optical output jack instead of a coaxial one, connect it to the AV receiver's DIGITAL IN OPTICAL 1 or 2 jack and set the DIGITAL INPUT assignment to OPT1 or OPT2 (see page 38).

This chapter explains how to record the selected input source to an AV component with recording capability, and how to record audio and video from two different sources.

Recording the Input Source

You can record only to AV components that are connected to the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

See pages 26-36 for information on connecting your AV components to the AV receiver.

1 DVD VIDEO 1/VCR VIDEO 2 VIDEO 3 TAPE TURER Remote controller V1 V2 V3 DVD TAPE TURER CD	Use the input selector buttons to select the AV component that you want to record. Audio signals from the selected input source are output by the VIDEO 1 OUT and TAPE OUT jacks. You can listen to the source while recording. The AV receiver's VOL-UME control has no effect on recording.
2	Start recording on the AV component connected to the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.
3	Start playback on the source AV component.

Notes:

• You cannot record from AV components that are connected to the digital inputs. You must use analog connections.
• The surround effects produced by the surround and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.
• You cannot record from an AV component that is connected to the multichannel input.
• If you select another input source while recording, that input source will be recorded instead.

Recording from Different AV Sources

With this function, you can record audio and video from different sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact that when an audio-only input source (i.e., TAPE, TUNER, or CD) is selected, the video input source remains unchanged. For example, if you first select the VIDEO 3 input source, followed by the CD input source, you can watch the video from the VIDEO 3 input and listen to the audio from the CD input.

In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN jacks, and video from the camcorder connected to the VIDEO 3 IN jack are recorded by the VCR, which is connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

1. Prepare the camcorder and CD player for playback.
2. Prepare the VCR for recording.
3. Press the [VIDEO 3] input selector button.
4. Press the [CD] input selector button.

This selects the CD player as the audio source, but leaves the camcorder as the video source.

1. Start recording on the VCR and start playback on the camcorder and CD player.

The video from the camcorder and the audio from the CD player are recorded by the VCR.

Selecting Listening Modes

See "About the Listening Modes" on page 50 for detailed information about the listening modes.

• The Dolby Digital and DTS listening modes can only be selected if your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver with a digital audio connection (coaxial or optical).

About the Listening Modes

With its built-in surround-sound decoders and DSP programs, the AV receiver can transform your home listening room into a movie theater or concert hall.

This illustration shows which speakers are active in each listening mode.

Direct

The selected input source is output directly with minimal processing for a pure sound.

Stereo

The selected input source is processed as a stereo signal and output by the front left and right speakers and the subwoofer.

Mono

Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono soundtrack, or to select multilingual soundtracks recorded in the left and right channels of some movies. It can also be used when playing a DVD or other source with multiplexed audio, such as a karaoke DVD.

Dolby Pro Logic II Movie

Use this mode with DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby Surround

logo or TV shows that feature Dolby Surround. You can also use this mode with stereo movies or TV shows and the AV receiver will create a 5.1 surround mix from the 2-channel stereo.

Dolby Pro Logic II Music

Use this mode to add 5.1 surround to stereo sources such as music CDs and DVDs.

Dolby Pro Logic II Game

Use this mode when playing game discs.

Dolby Digital

With this format you can experience the same superb sound that you get at a movie theater or concert hall. Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo.

DTS

This digital surround format offers a surround sound experience with exceptional fidelity. It uses compressed digital audio data, with six discrete channels (5.1), and the ability to handle large amounts of audio data while remaining faithful to the original. DTS provides very high-quality sound. You'll need a DTS compatible DVD

player in order to enjoy DTS material. Use this mode with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.

Neo:6

This mode provides 5.1-channel playback from 2-channel sources. It offers five full-bandwidth channels with excellent separation. There are two modes of operation: Cinema mode for movies, and Music mode for listening to music.

Cinema mode simulates the realistic sense of movement that you get with 5.1-channel surround sound sources. Use this mode with videos, DVDs, and TV shows that feature stereo sound.

Music mode uses the surround channels to simulate a natural sound field that cannot be produced with conventional stereo. Use this mode with stereo material such as music CDs.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for use with old movies and other mono sound sources. The center speaker outputs the sound as it is, while reverb is applied to the sound output by the other speakers, giving presence to even mono material.

Orchestra

Suitable for classical or operatic music. The surround channels are emphasized in order to widen the stereo image. In addition, it simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instrument sounds, vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simulates the stage-front experience.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock and pop music. Listening to music in this mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.

TV Logic

Adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV studio. In addition, it adds surround effects to the entire sound and adds clarity to voices.

All Ch Stereo

Ideal for background music. The front, surround, and surround back channels create a stereo image that fills the entire listening area.

5

Press the [SETUP] button. Setup closes.
When you want to go back up one menu level to "Audio Adjust," press the [RETURN] button.

The Audio Adjust functions are explained below.

Input Channel Settings

Multiplex

This setting determines which channel is output from a stereo multiplex source. Use it to select audio channels or languages with multiplex sources, multilingual TV broadcasts, and so on.

Main: The main channel is output (default).

Sub: The sub channel is output.

M/S: Both the main and sub channels are output.

Mono (2ch)

This setting determines which channel is output when the Mono listening mode is used with a stereo source.

L + R : Both the left and right channels are output (default).

L: Only the left channel is output.

R: Only the right channel is output.

PLII Music Mode Settings

These settings apply to only 2-channel (stereo) sources.

Panorama

With this function, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Pro Logic II Music listening mode.

On: Panorama function on.

Off: Panorama function off (default).

Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or backward when using the Pro Logic II Music listening mode. The default setting is 3. It can be adjusted from 0 to 6. Higher settings move the sound field forward.

Lower settings move it backward.

If the stereo image feels too wide, or there's too much surround sound, move the sound field forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it's in mono, or there's not enough surround sound, move it backward.

Center Width

This setting has an effect when you use a center speaker. With this function, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Pro Logic II

Music listening mode normally. If you're using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you're not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a phantom center). This setting controls the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7 (default is 3).

DTS Neo:6 Music Mode Setting

Center Image

This setting has an effect when you use a center speaker.

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 5-channel surround sound from 2-channel (stereo) sources. With this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5 (default is 2). This setting is unavailable if no surround speakers are connected.

When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is attenuated by half (-6dB) , giving the impression that the sound is located centrally. This setting works well when the listening position is considerably off center. When set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenuated, maintaining the original stereo balance.

Using the Late Night Function (Dolby Digital only)

With the Late Night function, you can reduce the dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so that you can still hear quiet parts even when listening at low volume levels—ideal for watching movies late at night when you don't want to disturb anyone.

Press the [RECEIVER] button, and then press the [L NIGHT] button repeatedly to select:

Off: Late Night function off.

Low: Small reduction in dynamic range.

High: Big reduction in dynamic range.

Notes:

• The effect of the Late Night function depends on the Dolby Digital material that you are playing, and with some material there will be little or no effect.
• The Late Night function is set to Off when the AV receiver is set to Standby.

Using the CinemaFILTER

With the CinemaFILTER, you can soften overly bright movie soundtracks, which are typically mixed for reproduction in a movie theater.

CinemaFILTER can be used with the following listening modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby PLII Movie, DTS, and DTS Neo:6 Cinema.

Press the [RECEIVER] button, and then press the [CINE FLTR] button repeatedly to select:

On: CinemaFILTER on.

Off: CinemaFILTER off.

Digital Input Signal Formats

The following table shows the display indicators for each supported digital signal format.

Format	Display
Dolby Digital	D D
DTS	D T S
PCM	PCM

Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format automatically. However, if you experience either of the following issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you can manually set the signal format to PCM or DTS:

• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off, try setting the format to PCM.
• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.

1 Press and hold the AV receiver's [DIGITAL INPUT] button for about 3 seconds.

2 While "Auto" is displayed (about 3 seconds), press the [DIGITAL INPUT] button again to select: PCM, DTS, or Auto.

DTS or PCM: The DTS or PCM indicator, depending on which format you have set, flashes, and only signals in that format are output. Digital signals in other formats are ignored.

Auto (default): The format is detected automatically. If no digital input signal is present, the corresponding analog input is used instead.

Correcting Sound and Picture Sync

When using progressive scanning on your DVD player, you may find that the picture and sound are out of sync. With this setting, you can correct this by delaying the audio signals. You can set it to 0, 20, or 40 milliseconds.

Press the [RECEIVER] REMOTE MODE button.

Press and hold, for more than 4 seconds, the input selector button for the input source that you want to correct.

This can be the [DVD], [VIDEO 1], [VIDEO 2], or [VIDEO 3] input source.

Use the Left and Right [] / [] buttons to set the delay to 0, 20, or 40 milliseconds.

DUD AUSync#20ms

The previous display reappears if you don't do anything for 5 minutes.

Note:

• This setting is not available when the Direct listening mode is used with an analog input signal.

If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a solution in this section.

If you can't resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting your Onkyo dealer. To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VIDEO 1] button, press the [STANDBY/ON] button. "Clear" will appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter Standby mode.

Note that resetting the AV receiver will delete your radio presets and custom settings.

Power

Can't turn on the AV receiver?

• Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five seconds or more, then plug it in again.

The AV receiver turns off as soon as it's turned on?

• The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immediately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources, and leave the AV receiver with its power cord disconnected for one hour. After that, reconnect the power cord, and then set the volume to maximum. If the AV receiver stays on, set the volume to minimum, disconnect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input sources properly. If the AV receiver turns off when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and contact your Onkyo dealer.

Audio

There's no sound or it's very quiet?

• Press the SPEAKERS [A] or [B] button to turn on the indicator for the speakers that you want to output sound.
• Make sure that the digital input source is selected properly (page 38). Press the [DIGITAL INPUT] button repeatedly.
• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 26).
• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wires are in contact with metal part of each speaker terminal (page 21)

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

• Check the volume. The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment (page 39).

• If the MUTING indicator is shown on the display, press the remote controller's [MUTING] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 46).
• While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers (page 45).
• Check the digital audio output setting on the connected device. On some games consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.
• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu.
• If your turntable doesn't have a phono preamp built-in, you must connect one between it and the AV receiver. If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and a phono preamp.
• Specify the speaker distances and adjust the individual speaker levels (pages 53, 54).
• The input signal format is set to PCM or DTS. Set it to Auto (page 57).

Only the front speakers produce sound?

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 55).

Only the center speaker produces sound?

• If you use the Pro Logic II Movie or Pro Logic II Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound is concentrated in the center speaker.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 55).

The surround speakers produce no sound?

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound (page 50).
• Depending on the source and current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 55).

The center speaker produces no sound?

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 50).
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 55).

The subwoofer produces no sound?

• The subwoofer outputs no sound while only speaker set B is on. Turn on speaker set A.
• When you play source material that contains no information in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 55).
• If the multichannel DVD input is selected and speaker set B is on, speaker set A is reduced to 2-channel playback, so the subwoofer outputs no sound.
• On the AV receiver, the subwoofer setting in the speaker configuration is set to No. Set the subwoofer setting to Yes.

There's no sound with a certain signal format?

• Check the digital audio output setting on the connected device. On some games consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.
• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

Can't get 5.1-channel playback?

• When speaker B is turned on, speaker set A is reduced to 2.1-channel playback.

The volume cannot be set to 79?

• When the subwoofer volume level is set to a positive (+) value, the maximum master volume level is reduced proportionally.

Noise can be heard?

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don't do it.
• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn't work?

• Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital (page 52).

The DVD analog multichannel input doesn't work?

• Check the DVD analog multichannel input connections (page 29).
• To select the DVD analog multichannel input, press the [MULTI CH] input selector button (page 40).
• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear

any sound, in which case you should stop your player for about three seconds, and then resume playback.

• With some CD players, you won't be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn't recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.
• When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

Video

There's no picture?

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 26).
• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.
• The AV receiver does not convert between formats, so if a video source component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the component video output (page 27).
• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn't appear?

• Relocate your antenna.
• Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer.
• Listen to the station in mono (page 41).
• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise.
  Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.
  Concrete walls weaken radio signals.
• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna (page 25).

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn't work?

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 19).
• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver, and that there's no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver's remote control sensor (page 19).
• Make sure you've selected the correct remote controller mode (page 12).
• Make sure you've entered the correct remote control code.

Can't control other components?

• Make sure you've selected the correct remote controller mode (page 12).
• If you've connected an RI -capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or next generation HDD-compatible component to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or a DS-A1 Remote Interactive Dock to the VIDEO 3 IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or HDD (see page 38).
• To control an Onkyo component that's connected via RI, point the remote controller at the AV receiver.

RI Dock for the iPod

There's no sound

• Make sure your iPod is actually playing.
• Make sure your iPod is inserted properly in the RI Dock.
• Make sure the RI Dock is connected to the correct input jacks on the AV receiver. Do not connect it to any output jacks.
• Make sure the AV receiver is turned on, the correct input source is selected, and the volume is turned up.
• Make sure the plugs are pushed in all the way.
• Make sure the AC adapter is connected to a suitable wall outlet and connected to the RI Dock.
  Try resetting your iPod.

There's no video

• Make sure that your iPod's TV OUT setting is set to On.
• Make sure the correct input is selected on your TV or the AV receiver.
• Some versions of the iPod do not output video.

The AV receiver's remote controller doesn't control your iPod

• 3rd generation iPods are not supported.
• Make sure your iPod is properly inserted in the RI Dock. If your iPod is in a case, it may not connect

properly to the RI Dock. Always remove your iPod from the case before inserting it into the RI Dock.

• The iPod cannot be operated while it's displaying the Apple logo.
• Make sure you've selected the right remote mode.
• Check the RI Dock's RI MODE switch setting.
• When you use the AV receiver's remote controller, point it toward your amp.
• The RI Dock must be connected to the AV receiver with both an RI cable and an audio cable.
• If you still can't control your iPod, start playback by pressing your iPod's Play button. Remote operation should then be possible.

The AV receiver unexpectedly selects your iPod as the input source

• Always pause iPod playback before selecting a different input source. If playback is not paused, the Direct Change function may select your iPod as the input source by mistake during the transition between tracks.

Recording

Can't record?

• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected.
• To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT, or VIDEO 1 IN to VIDEO 1 OUT).

Others

The sound changes when I connect my headphones?

• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it's already set to Stereo, Mono, Direct.

How do I change the language of a multiplex source?

• Use the "Multiplex" setting on the "4. Audio Adjust" menu to select Main or Sub (page 51).

The RI functions don't work?

• To use RI, you must make an RI connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and AV receiver, even if they are connected digitally (page 36).

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit's malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, set the AV receiver to Standby.
