Speaker Connection Precautions

The following table indicates the channels you should use depending on the number of speakers that you have.

No matter how many speakers you use, 2 powered subwoofers are recommended for a really powerful and solid bass.

To get the best from your surround sound system, you need to set the speaker settings automatically

( page 33) or manually (> page 51).

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.

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

+ 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 “dohms”

( page 51). 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 contact with the AV receiver’s rear panel. 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.

About Speakers A and Speakers B Installing Speakers A and Speakers B allows you to enjoy up to 7.2-channel surround-sound playback from each speaker configuration. Each configuration has its own pair of stereo front speakers and can use the same subwoofer, center, surround, front high, and surround back speakers, as required. You could, for example, use Speakers À when watching a DVD movie with 7.2-channels surround sound and use Speakers B for serious music listening with a pair of stereo speakers (2-channels).

Speakers A and Speakers B can be wired normally or bi-amped, but cannot be bi-amped at the same time. For example, if Speakers B are bi-amped, Speakers A can only be wired normally.

+ “Speaker Settings” (> page 51)

+ “Speaker Configuration” (> page 52)

+ “Selecting Speaker Layout” (> page 45) The versatility offered by the Speakers A and Speakers B configurations means you can configure the AV receiver to suit your exact requirements and application. Two typical applications are shown below.

Speakers A: 7.2-channel playback E Speakers A: 5.2-channel playback Speakers B: Stereo playback Speakers B: 2.1-channel playback with bi-amped In this example, Speakers À provides 7.2-channel front speakers surround sound for enjoying DVD movies, while In this example, Speakers À provides 5.2-channel Speakers B is used for serious music listening with a pair surround sound for enjoying DVD movies, while of top-quality stereo speakers.

Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround and surround back speakers. Dipole = I speakers output the same sound in two directions. © È Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them to indicate how they should be | C2 LTVEcreen [ C7 positioned, The surround dipole speakers (a) should be positioned so that their arrows CO0CE point toward the TV/screen, while the surround back dipole speakers (b) should be È ë ë & Ë positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Using Powered Subwoofers

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. You can connect the powered subwoofers with SW1 PRE OUT and SW2 PRE OUT respectively.

The level and distance can be set individually for each output.

If you’re using only one subwoofer, connect it to SW1 PRE OUT. Tip

+ If your subwoofer is unpowered and you”re using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

1/3 of wall position

+ When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals.

+ Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi- amping. Refer to your speaker manual.

Bi-amping provides improved bass and treble performance.

When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to a 7.2 speaker system in the main room.

Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections as shown and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the speaker setting to enable bi-amping (> page 51).

Using Basic Functions

Using the Automatic Speaker Setup

With the supplied calibrated microphone,

Audyssey MultEQ® XT32 automatically determines the

number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of

bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position.

Audyssey MultEQ XT32 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 everyone. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 can be used with

Audyssey Dynamic EQ® and

Audyssey Dynamic Volume® (> page 59).

Before using this function, connect and position all of

Audyssey MultEQ XT32 offers two ways of measuring:

the “Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration”.

+ “Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from one position to perform the speaker setting only.

+ “Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration” uses the measurement from eight positions to correct room response in addition to the speaker setting.

The more positions are used in measuring, the better the

listening environment will become. We recommend using

a measurement from eight positions to create the best

listening environment.

The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes

Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

Measurement procedure

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 takes measurements at up to eight 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.

BFirst 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. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

BSecond—eighth measurement positions These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up 10 eight positions.

+ Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices.

Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX first adds Wide channels for the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human hearing has proven that information from the Wide channels is much more critical in the presentation of a realistic soundstage than Back Surround channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX then creates a pair of Height channels to reproduce the next most important acoustical and perceptual cues. In addition to these new Wide and Height channels, Audyssey DSX applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the blend between the front and surround channels.

The combination of Dolby EX and Audyssey DSX modes can be used.

Founded by George Lucas, THX develops stringent standards that ensure movies are reproduced in movie theaters and home theaters just as the director intended. THX Modes carefully optimize the tonal and spatial characteristics of the soundtrack for reproduction in the home-theater environment. They can be used with 2-channel matrixed and multichannel sources. Surround back speaker output depends on the source material and the selected listening mode.

Dialogue Normalization

Dialogue Normalization (Dialog Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital, which is used to keep the programs at the same average listening level so the user does not have to change the volume control between Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD programs. When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display which will read “Dialog Norm X dB” (X being a numeric value). The display is showing how the program level relates with THX calibration level. If you want to play the program at calibrated theatrical levels, you may wish to adjust the volume. For example, if you see the following message: “Dialog Norm + 4 dB” in the front panel display, to keep the overall output level at THX calibrated loudnes st turn down the volume control by 4 dB. However, unlike a movie theater where the playback loudness is preset, you can choose your preferred volume setting for best enjoyment.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating 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.

10 dB below film reference. > 15dB:

Select this setting for pop/rock music or other

program material that is mixed at very high listening

levels and has a compressed dynamic range. Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film reference. To achieve the same reference level in a home theater system each speaker level must be adjusted so that -30 dBFS band-limited (500 Hz to 2000 Hz) pink noise produces 75 dB sound pressure level at the listening position. A home theater system automatically calibrated by Audyssey MultEQ® XT32 will play at reference level when the master volume control is set to the 0 dB position. 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 reference response and surround envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However, film reference 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 (5 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 deteriorating 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 constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution.

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. Whenever 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.

This section explains how to configure the AV receiver’s network settings manually.

If your router’s DHCP server is enabled, you don't need to change any of these settings, as the AV receiver is set to use DHCP to configure itself automatically by default (e., DHCP is set to “Enable”). If, however, your router’s DHCP server is disabled (you’re for example using static IP), you’ll need to configure these settings yourself, in which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is essential.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used by routers, Computers, the AV receiver, and other devices to automatically configure themselves on a network. What’s DNS?

The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a domain name such as www.onkyousa.com in your Web browser, before accessing the site, your browser uses DNS 10 translate this into an IP address, in this case 63.148.251.142.

This is the AV receiver’s MAC (Media Access Control) address. This address cannot be changed.

» Disable This setting determines whether or not the AV receiver uses DHCP to automatically configure its IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server settings.

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 components. 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, multichannel 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, DeepColor, Lip Syne, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DSD and Multichannel PCM.

Supported Audio Formats

+ 2-channel linear PCM (32-192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

+ Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32-192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

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

Your Blu-ray Disc/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. It's ned 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”Il 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.

Network/USB Features

Connecting to the Network Network Requirements

The following diagram shows how you can connect the AV receiver to your home network. In this example, it's connected to a LAN port on a router, which has a 4-port 100Base-TX switch built-in.

For the best results, a 100Base-TX switched Ethernet network is recommended. Although it's possible to play music on a computer that's connected to the network wirelessly, playback may be unreliable, so it is recommended to use wired connections.

A router manages the network, data-routing and supplying

of IP addresses. Your router must support the following:

+ NAT (Network Address Translation). NAT allows several networked computers to access the Internet simultaneously via a single Internet connection. The AV receiver needs Internet access for Internet radio.

+ DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). DHCP supplies IP addresses to the network devices, allowing them to configure themselves automatically.

+ A router With a built-in 100Base-TX switch is recommended.

Some routers have a built-in modem, and some ISPs

require you to use specific routers. Please consult your ISP

or computer dealer if you’re unsure.

M CATS Ethernet cable Use a shielded CATS Ethernet cable (straight-type) to connect the AV receiver to your home network.

Binternet Access (for Internet radio)

To receive Internet radio, your Ethernet network must have Internet access. A narrowband Internet connection (e.g, 56K modem, ISDN) will not provide satisfactory results, so a broadband connection is strongly recommended (e.g., cable modem, xDSL modem, etc). Please consult your ISP or computer dealer if you're unsure.

+ To receive Internet radio with the AV receiver, your broadband Internet connection must be working and able to access the Web. Consult your ISP if you have any problems with your Internet connection.

+ The AV receiver uses DHCP to configure its network settings automatically. If you want to configure these settings manually, see “Network” (> page 67).

+ The AV receiver does not support PPPOE settings, so if you have a PPPOE-type Internet connection, you must use a PPPOE- compatible router.

+ Depending on your ISP, you may need to specify a proxy server to use Internet radio. If your computer is configured to use a proxy server, use the same settings for the AV receiver (> page 67).

Server Requirements USB Device Requirements

The AV receiver can play digital music files stored on a

computer or media server and supports the following
