Enjoying Home Theater

Thanks to the AV receivers superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert all. With Blu-ray Discs, you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.

@ Front speakers 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 le: and equidistant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

@ Center speaker This speaker enhances the front speakers, making sound movements dis- tinct and providing a full sound image. In movies it's used mainly for dia- log. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front speakers.

@ Surround speakers 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 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.

@ Surround back speakers These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level.

@ Front high speakers These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height. They significantly enhance the spatial experience. Position them at least 3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front speakers (preferably as high as possible) and at an angle slightly wider than the front speakers.

© Subwoofer The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The volume and quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the width of the wall, as shown.

1/3 of wall position

+ To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.

To get the best from your surround sound system, you

need to set the speaker settings. You can do this automati-

cally (> 23) or manually (+ 36).

Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels

The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are all red (the negative (-) speaker terminals are all black).

Speaker Color Front left, Front high left White Front right, Front high right Red Center Green Surround left Blue Surround right Gray Surround back left, Zone 2 left Brown Surround back right, Zone 2 right Tan

The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and you should attach them to the positive (+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all you need to do is to match the color of each label to the corresponding speaker terminal.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

+ (North American and Taiwan models) You can con- nect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. 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 amp protection circuit may be acti- vated.

+ (European, Australian and Asian models) You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more, but less than 6 ohms, be sure 10 set the minimum speaker impedance to “4ohms”

(> 36). 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.

+ Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

+ Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (—) terminals only to 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.

+ Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have con- tact with the AV receiver’s rear panel. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

+ Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker ter- minal., Doing so may damage the AV receiver. + Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.

Which Connections Should 1 Use?

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment.

you choose will depend on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to the MONITOR OUT Vor the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.

Video Connection Formats

Video component can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, com- ponent video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output.

The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

When you connect audio component to an HDMI or COM- PONENT input, you must assign that input to an input selec- tor (> 35).

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, component video, composite video.

However, for component video only, regardless of whether a component video signal is actually present, if a component video input is assigned to the input selector, that component video input will be selected. And if no component video input is assigned to the input selector, this will be interpreted as no component video signal being present.

In the Signal Selection Example shown on the right, video signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs, however, the HDMI signal is automatically selected as the source and video is output by the HDMI outputs.

Audyssey 2E@® Room Correction and

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ automatically determines the number of speakers con- nected, their size for purposes of bass management, opti- mum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for every- one. Enabling Audyssey 2EQ allows you to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ°", which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level (+ 40). Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers.

If “Dynamic EQ"is set to “On” (+ 40), the “Equalizer” setting will be set to “Audyssey” ( 38). On the other hand, if it is set to “Off”, the “Dynamic Volume” setting will be set to “Off” (+ 40).

It takes about 15 minutes to complete Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup for three positions. Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey 2EQ takes measure- ments at up to three positions within the listening area. Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce inaccurate results. @ First measurement position Also referred to as the Main Listening Position this refers to the most central position where one would normally sit within the listening environment. 2EQ uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

@ Second measurement position The right side of the listening area.

@ Third measurement position The left side of the listening area.

The distances from position D to @ and D to ® must be at least 1 meter.

+ Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room measure- ments. Close windows, televisions, radios, air conditioners, flu- orescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if it is not in use) or place it away from all audio electronics.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio- rating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level — not just at reference level.

This setting should also be selected for TV content as that is usually mixed at 10 dB below film reference. »15dB: Select this setting for pop/rock music or other pro- gram material that is mixed at very high listening levels and has a compressed dynamic range. Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film refer- ence.

À home theater system automatically cali- brated by Audyssey 2EQ will play at reference level when the master volume control is set to the 0 dB posi- tion. At that level you can hear the mix as the mixers heard it.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ is referenced to the standard film mix level. It makes adjustments to maintain the ref- erence response and surround envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However, film refer- ence level is not always used in music or other non-film content. Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset provides three offsets from the film level reference

(6 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be selected when the mix level of the content is not within the standard.

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio- rating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any user- selected volume setting. The result is bass response, tonal balance, and surround impression that remain con- stant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for deliv- ering a loudness correction solution.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey 2EQ to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume’

Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. When- ever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ'" is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity remain the same whether watching movies, flipping between television channels, or changing from stereo to surround sound content.

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 cor- rectly.

Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall out- let, set the AV receiver to Standby.

About HDMI Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVS, projectors, Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video compo- nents. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichan- nel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)"1, so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)

The AV receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)"2, so only HDCP-compatible components can display the picture.

The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following: Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, Deep Color, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution

Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DSD and Multichannel PCM Supported Audio Formats

+ Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio)

Your Blu-ray Dise/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.

About Copyright Protection

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)"2, a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG'3 in 1999. HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. Is designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open industry group's objective is to address the industry”s requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCS and digital displays.

+ The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you'll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

+ The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there”s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected components instruction manual for details.

Using an RIHD-compatible TV, Player, or Recorder

RIHD, which stands for Remote Interactive over HDMI, is the name of the system control function found on Onkyo components. The AV receiver can be used with CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), which allows system control over HDMI and is part of the HDMI standard. CEC provides interoperability between various components, however, opera- tion with components other than FR1HD-compatible components cannot be guaranteed.

B About RIHID-compatible components

The following components are FIHID-compatible. (As

of February 2010) See the Onkyo web site for latest infor-

+ Onkyo and Integra RIHD-compatible players

+ Panasonic VIERA Link compatible players and record- ers (only when used together with Panasonic VIERA Link compatible TV)

+ Toshiba REGZA-LINK compatible players and record- ers (only when used together with Toshiba REGZA- LINK compatible TV)

+ Sharp players and recorders (only when used together with Sharp TV)

Models other than those mentioned above may have some interoperability if compatible with CEC which is part of the HDMI Standard, but operation cannot be guaranteed.

+ Do not connect the FIHID -compatible component more than the following number to the HDMI input terminal so that the linked operations work properly.

“Blu-ray Disc/DVD player is up to three.

—Blu-ray Disc recorder/DVD recorder/Digital Video Recorder is up to three.

-Cable/Satellite Set-top box is up to four.

+ Do not connect the AV receiver to the other AV receiver/AV

When the FIHD -compatible component more than the

above-mentioned is connected, the linked operations are not

E Operations that can be performed with R1HID

For RIHD-compatible TV The following linked operation is possible by connecting

the AV receiver to an FIHD-compatible TV.

+ The AV receiver will enter Standby mode when the power of the TV is turned to Standby.

+ You can set on the menu screen of the TV to either out- put the audio from the speakers connected to the AV receiver, or from the speakers of the TV.

+ Itis possible to output the video/audio from the antenna or from the input jack of the TV from the speakers con- nected to the AV receiver. (A connection such as optical digital cable or similar is required above the HDMI cable.)

+ Input to the AV receiver can be selected with the remote controller of the TV.

+ Operations such as volume adjustment or similar for the AV receiver can be performed from the remote controller of the TV.

For RIHID-compatible players/recorders

The following link operation is possible by connecting the

AV receiver to an FRIHD-compatible player/recorder.

+ When the playback is started on the player/recorder, input of the AV receiver will switch to the HDMI input of the player/recorder that is playing back.

+ Operation of the player/recorder is possible with the remote controller supplied with the AV receiver.

Not all functions may operate depending on the model.

Æ How to connect and setup

Ÿ Confirm the connecting and setting.

1. Connect the HDMI OUT jack to the HDMI input jack of the TV.

Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, etc.

DIGITAL AUDIO HDMI connection connection (OPTICAL)

2. Connect the audio output from the TV to the OPTICAL IN 2 jack of the AV receiver using an optical digital cable.

+ When the audio return channel (ARC) function is used with TV for HDMI 1.4, it should not be this connection @ 46).

3. Connect the HDMI output of the Blu-ray Disc/

DVD player/recorder to the HDMI IN 1 jack of the AV receiver.

+ Itis necessary to assign the HDMI input when connecting the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player/recorder to other jacks (2 35). Do not assign the components connected to the HDMI IN to the TV/CD input at this time. Appropriate CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) operation can not be guaranteed.

3] Confirm the settings.

1. Turn on the power for all connected components.

2. Turn off the power of the TV, and confirm that the power of the connected components is turned off automatically with the link operation.

3. Turn on the power of the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player/recorder.
