Cautions on Handling Cautions on Installation

• Before turning the power switch on

Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are

no problems with the connection cables.

• Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is

set to the standby mode. When traveling or leaving home for long
periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power
outlet.

• About condensation

If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of

the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on
the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate
properly.

If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power

turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature
before using the unit.

• Cautions on using mobile phones

Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If so, move

the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.

• Moving the unit

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power

outlet.

Next, disconnect the connection cables to other system units before

moving the unit.

• Note that the illustrations in these instructions may differ from the

actual unit for explanation purposes.

Note:
For proper heat dispersal, do not install this unit in a confined
space, such as a bookcase or similar enclosure.

Connecting the Speaker Cables

Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the AVR-4308,
and be sure to interconnect the channels and polarities correctly.

Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from

1

the tip of the speaker cable, then either
twist the core wire tightly or terminate
it.

Turn the speaker terminal

2

counterclockwise to loosen it.

Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to

3

the hilt into the speaker terminal.

Turn the speaker terminal clockwise to

4

tighten it.

NOTE

• Use speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms. When using
surround A and B speakers simultaneously, use speakers with an
impedance of 8 to 16 Ω/ohms.

• Connect the speaker cables in such a way that they do not stick out
of the speaker terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if
the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each
other (v “Protection circuit”).

• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is
connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.

Protection circuit

If speakers with an impedance lower than specified (for example
4 Ω/ohms speakers) are used for an extended period of time with
the volume turned up high, the temperature may rise, activating the
protection circuit.
When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is shut
off and the power indicator flashes red. If this happens, unplug
the power cord, then check the speaker cable and input cable
connections. If the set is extremely hot, wait for it to cool off and
improve ventilation around it. Once this is done, plug the power cord
back in and turn the set’s power back on.
If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no
problems in the ventilation around the set nor in the connections,
the set may be damaged. Turn the power off, then contact a DENON
service center.

Copyright protection system (HDCP)

In order to play the digital video and audio signals of a DVD­Video or DVD-Audio disc using HDMI/DVI connections, both
the connected DVD player and monitor must be equipped
for a copyright protection system called “HDCP” (High­bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
HDCP is a copy protection technology consisting of data
encoding and mutual identification of the devices.
The AVR-4308 is HDCP-compatible. For details on the
DVD player or monitor you are using, refer to its operating
instructions.

Discs

(examples)

CD, DVD-Video,
DVD-Audio

DVD-Audio

SACD

HD DVD,
Blu-ray Disc

NOTE

• Use a CPPM-compatible DVD player to play DVD-Audio discs that are copyright-protected by CPPM.

• The AVR-4308 cannot be controlled from another device via the HDMI cable.

• The audio signals output from the HDMI connector (sampling frequency, bit rate, etc.) may be restricted
by the connected device.

• Video signals are not output properly when using devices that are not HDCP-compatible.

• Video signals are not output if the input video signals do not match the monitor’s resolution. In this case,
switch the DVD player’s resolution to a resolution with which the monitor is compatible.

• If the GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “HDMI Setup” – “Audio” setting (vpage 31) is set to “Amp”, the
sound may be interrupted when the monitor’s power is turned off.

• Use a cable on which the HDMI logo is indicated (a certified HDMI product) for connection to the HDMI
connector. Normal playback may not be possible when using a cable other than one on which the HDMI
logo is indicated (a non-HDMI-certified product).

• If the monitor or DVD player does not support deep color, deep color signal transfer is not possible.

• If the monitor or DVD player does not support xvYCC, xvYCC signal transfer is not possible.

• If the monitor does not support “Auto Lipsync Correction” function, this function will not work.

• When the AVR-4308 and DVD player are connected using an HDMI cable, also connect the AVR-4308 and
monitor using an HDMI cable.

• If the connected monitor or DVD player only has a DVI-D connector, use an HDMI/DVI converter cable.
When using a DVI cable, no audio signals are transmitted.

• Use a Deep Color compatible cable for connection to Deep Color compatible devices.

When connecting with an HDMI/DVI converter cable (adapter)

• HDMI video signals are theoretically compatible with the DVI format.
When connecting to a monitor, etc., equipped with a DVI-D connector, connection is possible using an

HDMI/DVI converter cable, but depending on the combination of components in some cases the video
signals will not be output.

• When connecting using an HDMI/DVI converter adapter, the video signals may not be output properly
due to poor connections with the connected cable, etc.

• By default, the HDMI audio signals are output from the speakers connected to the AVR-4308.

• To output the sound from the TV, make the settings at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “HDMI Setup”
– “Audio” – “TV” (vpage 31).

• With the AVR-4308, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP

functions to make the network settings automatically.

• When using a broadband router (DHCP function), the AVR-4308

sets the IP address, etc., automatically.

When using the AVR-4308 connected to a network with no DHCP

function, make the settings for the IP address, etc., at GUI menu
“Manual Setup” – “Network Setup” (vpage 33 ~ 35).

• The AVR-4308 is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-compatible

router is required if you have a contract for a line of the type with
which the PPPoE is set.

• Depending on the ISP with which you have your contract, it may

be necessary to make proxy server settings to use the Internet
radio function. If you made proxy server settings on the computer
to connect to the Internet, make the proxy server settings on the
AVR-4308 in the same way.

the SETUP MIC jack on the main unit.

The auto setup screen appears automatically.

• Audyssey MultEQ® XT automatically measures the acoustical
problems in the listening environment to create the best audio
experience for your home theater.

• It optimizes a large listening area where one or more listeners are

seated.

Measurements are performed by placing the calibrated microphone

(DM-A505Z) successively at multiple positions throughout the
listening area as shown in Example q. For best results, it is
strongly recommended to measure 6 or more positions so that the
measurements have the proper spatial weighting.

Even if the listening environment is small as shown in Example w,

measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environment
results in more effective correction.

Example q Example w

( :Measuring positions)

About the main listening position (*M)

The main listening position refers to the most central position where
one would normally sit within the listening environment.
MultEQ XT uses the measurements from this position to calculate
speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value
for the subwoofer.

To make manual adjustments to the settings, see page 29 ~ 31.

b It is not recommended to hold it in your hand. Be sure that the

path from microphone to the speakers is not blocked by objects.
Avoid placing the microphone close to a seat back or wall as sound
refl ections may give inaccurate results.

When using a subwoofer, make the following settings before starting
the auto setup procedure:

• Defeat the volume and crossover controls if possible

• If this is not possible then set

•

Volume: “12 o’clock” position

•

Crossover frequency: “Maximum/Highest Frequency”

•

Low pass fi lter: “Off”

•

NOTE

• Do not disconnect the setup microphone until the auto setup
procedure is completed.

• When using headphones, unplug the headphones before starting
the auto setup procedure.
