Before using 2

Facilities and connections 8

1. Read Instructions – All the safety and operating instructions

should be read before the appliance is operated.

2. Retain Instructions – The safety and operating instructions

should be retained for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings – All warnings on the appliance and in the

operating instructions should be adhered to.

4. Follow Instructions – All operating and use instructions

should be followed.

5. Cleaning – Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet before

cleaning. The appliance should be cleaned only as recom-

mended by the manufacturer.

6. Attachments – Do not use attachments not recommended by

the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7. Water and Moisture – Do not use the appliance near water –for

example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry

tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.

8. Accessories – Do not place the appliance on an unstable cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing

serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the

appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance.

Any mounting of the appliance should follow the

manufacturer’s instructions, and

should use a mounting accessory

recommended by the manufac-

turer.

9. An appliance and cart combina-

tion should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and

uneven surfaces may cause the

appliance and cart combination to

overturn.

10. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided

for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance

and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not

be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked

by placing the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar

surface. The appliance should not be placed in a built-in instal-

lation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is

provided. There should be free space of at least 20 cm (8 in.)

and an opening behind the appliance.

11. Power Sources – The appliance should be operated only from

the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you

are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult

your appliance dealer or local power company.

12. Grounding or Polarization – The appliance may be equipped

with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one

blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power

outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to

insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the

plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace

your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

polarized plug.

13. Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by

items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention

to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where

they exit from the appliance.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna or cable

system is connected to the appliance, be sure the antenna or

cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection

against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810

of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides in-

formation with regard to proper grounding of the mast and sup-

porting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-

discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of an-

tenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and

requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.

15. Lightning – For added protection for the appliance during a

lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for

long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and discon-

nect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to

the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.

16. Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be lo-

cated in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric

light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines

or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme

care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or

circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords,

or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk

of fire or electric shock.

18. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind

into the appliance through openings as they may touch danger-

ous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or

electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the appliance.

19. Servicing – Do not attempt to service the appliance yourself as

opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous volt-

age or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel.

20. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the appliance form the

wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel

under the following conditions:

A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,

B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

appliance,

C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water,

D. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

covered by the operating instructions as an improper ad-

justment of other controls may result in damage and will

often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the appliance to its normal operation,

E. If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any way,

and

F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in perfor-

mance – this indicates a need for service.

Important Safeguards

THX Select

Before any home theatre component can be THX Select

certified, it must pass a rigorous series of quality and

performance tests. Only then can a product feature the THX

Select logo, which is your guarantee that the Home Theatre

products you purchase will give you superb performance for

many years to come. THX Select requirements define hundreds

of parameters, including power amplifier performance, and pre-

amplifier performance and operation for both digital and analog

domains. THX Select receivers also feature proprietary THX

technologies (e.g., THX Mode, see page 42) which accurately

translate film soundtracks for home theater playback.

Insert batteries

1. Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote

controller.

2. Insert 4 AA batteries (included in package) as

Rear panel facilities

Here is an explanation of the terminals found on the rear of the DTR-

8.2 and how they are used. Before connecting your audio and video

components, be sure to read this section carefully and then proceed

to the explanations on how to connect each individual component

(see page 18).

• Be sure to always refer to the instructions that came with the

component that you are connecting.

• Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been

made.

• For input jacks, red connectors (marked R) are used for the

right channel, white connectors (marked L) are used for the

left channel, and yellow connectors (marked V) are used for

video connection.

• Do not bind audio/video connection cables with power cords

and speaker cables. Doing so may adversely affect the

picture and sound quality.

Improper connection

Inserted completely

• Insert all plugs and connectors securely. Improper

connections can result in noise, poor performance, or

damage to the equipment.

A-BUS

Congratulations for purchasing a most efficient, modern-day remote

controllable whole house audio system. A-BUS is a simple,

efficient, elegant audio distribution system. The wiring installation

time is significantly reduced as only a single CAT-5 wire is run to

each location. A-BUS is easy to use, reliable, affordable, and most of

all, far better sounding than conventional autoformer based volume

controls.

ZONE A/B/C/D: Use a CAT-5 (eight conductor twisted) cable to

connect directly from the receiver’s A-BUS RJ45 Hub to an A-BUS

keypad. A-BUS outputs enable connection up to four A-BUS

keypads.

Warning:

DO NOT connect A-BUS outputs to any computer or network

connections (i.e. ethernet). It will cause damage to the computer or

network components as 24-volt power runs on this same cable to

power the amplifier stages of the amplifier module.

IR control: Another feature of the A-BUS system is the ability to

control source equipment in another room where the A-BUS module

is installed. If you wish to control another source from the receiver at

the A-BUS keypad by remote control, connect A-BUS or another

brands' IR emitter on the receiver's 40 k terminal. Then place the

emitter on the remote receiver on the front panel.

Typically, the emitter will work when you connect with a 40 K

connector. If it does not work, try a 56 K connector.

DC INPUT: Connect A-BUS power supply. Do not use any other

AC Adapter on this connector as it may cause severe damage to the

receiver.

YPB PR RCA type

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT

If your DVD player or other device has component video

connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video

connectors on the DTR-8.2. The DTR-8.2 has two component video

input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, PB, PR) directly

from the recorded DVD signal or other video component and one

component video output connector to output it directly into the

matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD

component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra

processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is

vastly increased image quality, with incredibly lifelike colors and

crisp detail.

RCA type

(RI)

The terminal on the DTR-8.2 is for connecting other Integra/

Onkyo components equipped with the same

terminal. When a

component is -connected, you can point the remote controller

supplied with the DTR-8.2 at the sensor on the DTR-8.2 and operate

that component without having to switch remote controllers.

In addition, by connecting components to the

terminal, you can

also perform the system operations given below.

Power on/ready function

When the DTR-8.2 is in the standby state, if an

-connected

component is turned on, then the DTR-8.2 also turns on and the input

source selected at the DTR-8.2 automatically switches to that

component.

If the power cord for an

-connected component is connected to

the AC OUTLET on the DTR-8.2, or if the DTR-8.2 is turned on,

this function will not work.

Direct change function

When the play button is pressed at an -connected component, the

input source selected at the DTR-8.2 automatically changes to that

component.

Power off function

When the DTR-8.2 is placed in the standby state, all

DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DTR-8.2 for digital

recording of the source for REC OUT at the DTR-8.2.

Note:

The output from the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack of the DTR-8.2 is

only the digital signal input to the DIGITAL INPUT jack.

6. Connecting a video cassette recorder (VIDEO 1)

Using an RCA-type video connection cable, connect the video

output terminal (composite) on the video cassette recorder to the

VIDEO 1 IN jacks on the DTR-8.2 and video input terminal to the

VIDEO 1 OUT jacks. If there is an S video input/output terminal on

the video cassette recorder, connect it to the S VIDEO 1 IN/OUT

jack using an S video cable. You do not need to connect to both the S

VIDEO 1 IN and VIDEO 1 IN terminals. If the video cassette

recorder has component video outputs, connect them to one of the

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.

With the initial settings of the DTR-8.2, the VIDEO 1 input

source is set for the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 2 jack.

If the video connection is made at COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 1,

this must be changed at the Setup menu: Input Setup → Video Setup

→ Component Video (see page 38).

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio

output terminal on the video cassette recorder to the same VIDEO 1

IN audio jacks on the DTR-8.2 and audio input terminal to the

VIDEO 1 OUT audio jacks. Make sure that you properly connect the

left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

With the initial settings of the DTR-8.2, the VIDEO 1 input

source is set for digital input at the COAXIAL 2 jack.

If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be

changed at the Setup menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup (see page

box (VIDEO 3 or 4)

If the satellite tuner or television is equipped with an S video output

terminal, connect it to the S VIDEO 3 (or 4) IN terminal with an S

video cable. If it does not have an S video output terminal, connect

its video output terminal to the VIDEO 3 (or 4) IN terminal using an

RCA-type video connection cable. You do not need to connect to

both the S VIDEO 3 (or 4) IN and VIDEO 3 (or 4) IN terminals. If

the satellite tuner or television has component video outputs,

connect them to one of the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks.

With the initial settings of the DTR-8.2, the VIDEO 3 and

VIDEO 4 input sources are set for the COMPONENT VIDEO

INPUT 2 jack.

If the video connection is made at COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 1,

this must be changed at the Setup menu: Input Setup → Video Setup

→ Component Video (see page 38).

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio

output terminal on the satellite tuner or television to the same

VIDEO 3 (or 4) IN audio jacks on the DTR-8.2. Make sure that you

properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel

to the R jack.

If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect

it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT

(OPTICAL) jack on the DTR-8.2 depending on the device.

With the initial settings of the DTR-8.2, the VIDEO 3 input source is

set for digital input at the OPTICAL 3 jack, and the VIDEO 4 input

source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 4 jack.

If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed

at the Setup menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup (see page 36).

9. Connecting a television monitor or projector

(MONITOR OUT)

The DTR-8.2 is equipped with a simple Y/C separate circuit and

simple Y/C mixed circuit. Since both the signal from the S VIDEO

and VIDEO inputs are output to the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO

output, if the television or projector is equipped with an S video

input, it is unnecessary to connect the video connectors. If it is

equipped with only a video input, connect it to the MONITOR OUT

VIDEO output.

If the monitor or projector is equipped with an S video output

terminal, connect it to the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO terminal with

an S video cable. If it does not have an S video output terminal,

connect its video output terminal to the MONITOR OUT VIDEO

terminal using an RCA-type video connection cable. You do not

need to connect to both the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO and

MONITOR OUT VIDEO terminals. If the device has component

video inputs, connect them to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT

jacks.

Note:

Note that the Setup menu will only be displayed on the monitor

connected to MONITOR OUT and not those connected to the

COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.

10. Connecting video camera, etc. (VIDEO 5)

If the device is equipped with an S video output terminal, connect it

to the S VIDEO 5 IN terminal with an S video cable. If it does not

have an S video output terminal, connect its video output terminal to

the VIDEO 5 IN terminal using an RCA-type video connection

cable. You do not need to connect to both the S VIDEO 5 IN and

VIDEO 5 IN terminals.

The VIDEO 5 digital input is fixed to the OPTICAL input on the

Subwoofer

A subwoofer is recommended for the highest bass effect.

Before connecting the speakers, place them correctly by consulting

the instruction manuals that came with them.

For surround playback, the configuration and placement of your

speakers are very important.

For THX surround EX playback, we recommend that you use a THX

speaker system that is certified by Lucasfilm Ltd.

Ideal speaker configuration

• Front right and left speakers

• Center speaker

Produces a rich sound image by serving as a sound source for the

front right and left speakers and enhancing the sonic movement.

• Surround right and left speakers

Adds three-dimensional sonic movement and produces

environmental sound associated with the background and effect

sound for each scene.

• Surround back right and left speakers

Required for enjoying THX Surround EX, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1,

or DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 audio.

• Subwoofer

Produces powerful and heavy bass.

Minimum speaker configuration for surround

sound playback

• Front right and left speakers

• Surround right and left speakers

The sound recorded for the center speaker and the subwoofer will be

properly distributed to the front right and left speakers for optimized

surround playback.

Speaker placement

Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your room

and the wall coverings. Here, only typical example of speaker

placement and recommendations are shown.

In order to create the optimum conditions for the best sound quality,

be sure to place all the speakers so that the greatest difference

between the distances of each speaker to the listening position is less

than 6 meters.

Important points regarding speaker placement

Front left and right speakers and center speaker

• Place these three speakers at the same height from the floor.

• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the location of the

listener’s ears when at the listening position.

Surround left and right speakers

• Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter higher than

that of the listener’s ears.

Surround back speakers

• Place these speakers behind the listener so that the angle

between each speaker and the listener is approximately 30

degrees.

• Place these speakers so that their height is 3 feet (1 meter)

higher than that of the listener’s ears.

• Be sure to connect the positive and negative cables for the

speakers properly. If they are mixed up, the left and right signals

will be reversed and the audio will sound unnatural.

• Do not connect more than one speaker cable to one speaker

terminal. Doing so may damage the DTR-8.2.

• Connect either your surround back speakers or the speakers you

will be using in the remote zone (Zone 2) to the SURR BACK

SPEAKERS/ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals (see page 24).

Connecting speakers

Caution:

Connect only speakers with an impedance between 4 and 16 Ω to

the DTR-8.2. If the impedance of even one speaker is between 4

and 6 Ω, be sure to set the speaker impedance setting

accordingly (see page 31).

• To prevent damage to circuitry,

never short-circuit the positive (+)

and negative (–) speaker wire.

NO!

Outline

The DTR-8.2 allows you to connect another set of speakers and

place them in a different room or separated area for listening to

music. This other room or area is referred to as the remote zone

(Zone 2), while the room where the DTR-8.2 is located is the main

zone. In addition, the IR IN/OUT allows you to control the DTR-

8.2 from the remote zone (Zone 2) with the remote controller even

though the remote zone is physically separated. The diagram

below shows how to make the proper connections for the remote

zone.

DTR-8.2

Operating components not reached by the

remote controller signals (IR IN/OUT)

If the remote controller signal does not reach the

DTR-8.2 remote sensor

If the DTR-8.2 is located inside a cabinet or other enclosure where

the infrared rays from the remote controller cannot enter, then

operation with the remote controller will not be possible. In such a

case, it will be necessary to install a remote sensor at a location

outside of the cabinet for the infrared rays from the controller to

reach.

With this connection, select “Main” for the Hardware Setup → IR IN

Setup → Position setting in the Setup menu (see page 31).

If the remote controller signal does not reach

other components

In this situation, you will need to use a commercially available IR

emitter. Connect the mini plug of the IR emitter to the IR OUT

terminal on the DTR-8.2 and then place the IR emitter on the remote

sensor of the component or facing it. When the IR emitter is

connected, only the signal input to the IR IN terminal is output to the

IR OUT terminal. The signal input from the remote sensor on the

front of the DTR-8.2 will not be output to the IR OUT terminal.

The following equipment (sold separately) is essential for

operation:

• Onkyo’s Multi-Room System kits (IR Remote Controller

Extension System), or

• Multiroom A/V distribution and control systems from Niles

and Xantech

to name a few

The IR IN input allows you to control the DTR-8.2 from the remote

zone (Zone 2) with the remote controller even though the remote

zone is physically separated. The diagram below shows how to make

the proper connections for the remote zone.

With this connection, select “Zone 2” for the Hardware Setup → IR

IN Setup → Position setting in the Setup menu (see page 31).

Make connection as shown below. Do not plug the equipment into

the power source until the connection is complete.

FM antenna

Hint:

Either of the split ends of the AM antenna can be connected to either

terminal. Unlike speaker cabling, there is no polarity for AM

broadcast signals.

Connecting the included antennas

Connecting the FM indoor antenna:

The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During use, extend the

antenna and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is

received. Fix it with push pins or similar implements in the position

that will cause the least amount of distortion.

If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor

antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting the AM loop antenna:

The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction

and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away

as possible from the DTR-8.2, televisions, speaker cables, and power

cords.

When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop

antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

To use the tuner of DTR-8.2, it is necessary to prepare the supplied

FM and AM antennas.

• Adjustment and placement of the FM and AM antennas for

better reception must be done while listening to a station

broadcast.

• If better reception cannot be obtained, then placement of an

outside antenna is recommended.

Assembling the AM loop antenna

Assemble the loop antenna as shown in the illustration.

• Refer to “Connecting the AM loop antenna” below for details on

connecting the loop antenna.

Connecting an AM outdoor antenna

An outdoor antenna will be more effective if it is stretched

horizontally above a window or outside.

• Do not remove the AM loop antenna.

• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is

necessary. Follow item 14 of the “Important Safeguards” on

page 2 when you install the outdoor antenna.

Directional linkage

Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or VCR)

reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere with

each other. If you must use a common FM/TV (or VCR) antenna, use

a directional linkage type splitter.

Connecting an FM outdoor antenna

Please make sure that you follow the considerations:

• Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy

roads, etc.).

• It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it

well away from power lines, transformers, etc.

• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is

necessary. Follow item 14 of the “Important Safeguards” on

page 2 when you install the outdoor antenna.
