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).

For connections to the Internet, contact an ISP (Internet Service Provider) or a computer shop.
NOTE
• A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet. No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband
connection to the Internet.
• The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for details.
• Depending on the server, video files may be displayed, but they cannot be played on the AVR-4308.
n Others
• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network
settings are made manually, make the settings at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Network Setup” (vpage 33 ~ 35).
• 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.

Preparations
Connect the included calibrated setup microphone to

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.

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.

Setup
microphone
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”
Standby mode: “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.

Start
Start Auto Setup. The Audyssey MultEQ XT Auto Setup process automatically calculates the size, level, distance, bass management crossover frequency, and optimal settings for each speaker and subwoofer. Audyssey MultEQ XT corrects acoustical distortions within the listening area. Before starting, connect and position all your speakers. Once started, MultEQ XT will play a series of test tones through each speaker.
Confi guration
The speaker system to be measured can be selected ahead of time here.
[Selectable items]
Setting the correct speaker confi guration can reduce the time required to measure during the auto setup procedure as the system will not have to look for speakers that are not connected.

Amp Assign
Advanced setting : changes power amplifi er assignment.
NOTE
The items selectable at “Confi g.” differ according to the “Amp Assign” settings.
STEP1 : Speaker Detection
The speaker connection and polarity are detected at the fi rst measurement position. The following attributes are also determined at this time: “Speaker Size”, “Speaker Distance”, “Channel Level”, “Crossover Frequency”. Once the measurements are completed, the results are displayed.
NOTE
• Loud test tone may be played during Audyssey MultEQ XT Automatic Speaker Setup. This is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in room, these test tones will increase in volume.
• Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate readings.
• Quiet the listening environment before beginning measurements and refrain from talking. Turn off air conditioning units or other devices that emit noise if at all possible as measurements may be affected by these sounds.
• Operating the MASTER VOLUME knob on the main unit or the VOL +/– buttons on the remote control unit during the measurements will cancel the measurements.
• Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume after “STEP1”.
ENGLISH
STEP2: Measurement
After completing a measurement position, move the microphone to the next position.
Measure at least 6 positions (main listening position and at least 5 other surrounding positions). For best results it is recommend measuring 6
or more positions (with a maximum of 8 positions).
STEP3: Calculation
When “Calculate” is selected at “STEP2”, the measurements taken are analyzed automatically to determine how the speaker system interacts with the room.
The time required for this analysis depends on the number of speakers connected. The higher the number of speakers, the longer the time required for analysis.
STEP4: Check
Once the auto setup procedure is complete, a measuring result check screen appears. Select any item whose results you want to check to review the results.
Values that are different from the actual distance may be set for speakers with built-in fi lters (subwoofers, etc.). This is because fi lters add electrical delay to the signal that should be compensated.
STEP5: Store
The auto setup measurement results are stored in the AVR-4308.
NOTE
Do not turn the power off while the settings are being stored.

About the RESTORER function
• Such compressed audio formats as MP3, WMA (Windows Media Audio) and MPEG-4 AAC reduce the amount of data by eliminating signal components that are hard for the human ear to hear. The RESTORER function generates the signals eliminated upon compression, restoring the sound to conditions near those of the original sound before compression. It also corrects the sense of volume of the bass to obtain richer sound with compressed audio
signals.
• This is displayed on the GUI menu and can be set when the input source is set to “DAB” or “NET/USB”, or when analog signals (including AM/FM signals) or PCM signals (fs = 44.1/48 kHz) are input.

• DAB broadcasts multiple services under one Ensemble that are called service components.
• Each component contains inherent programmes; news, music, sports, and many more.
• Each Ensemble and service component has its label, and users can recognize a current broadcasting station and service contents by using the label.
• The main service component is broadcast as Primary while the others are broadcast as Secondary.
• Also rich character information is serviced through Dynamic Labels; song title, artist composer etc.

The AVR-4308 is compatible with the following types of playback:
Multi-zone playback (ZONE2 & ZONE3)
Bi-amp playback (front speaker)
Bi-wiring playback (front speaker)
NOTE
• For bi-amp and bi-wiring playback, use speakers compatible with that type of connection.
• When conducting bi-amp or bi-wiring playback, remove the short-circuiting boards (or wires) from the speaker terminals.
Multi-Zone Settings with the Amp Assign Function
The amp assign function lets you assign the amplifiers for the different channels built into the AVR-4308 to the speaker outputs for the different zones. Select the desired playback environment from among “Setting 2” to “Setting 7”, then set the corresponding “Amp Assign” mode at GUI menu “Manual Setup” – “Option Setup” – “Amp Assign” (vpage 36). Connect the speakers as described at “Amp Assign mode settings and speakers connected to the various speaker terminals”.
With “Setting 5” to “Setting 7”, it is possible to switch the Amp Assign mode between the 7.1-channel mode and the multizone mode without changing the speaker connections.

About Speaker Installation
Surround back speakers
Number of surround back speakers
We recommend using 2 speakers. When using dipolar speakers in particular, be sure to use 2 speakers.
Placement of the surround left and right channels when using surround back speakers
We recommend installing the speakers for the surround “L” and “R” channels a bit forward.
w Setting for primarily watching movies using diffusion type
speakers for the surround speakers
For the greatest sense of surround sound envelopment, diffuse radiation speakers such as bipolar types, or dipolar types, provide a wider dispersion than is possible to obtain from a direct radiating speaker (monopolar). Place these speakers at either side of the prime listening position, mounted above ear level.
Path of the surround sound from the speakers to the listening position
Sound positioning directly to the rear can be achieved easily by adding a surround back speaker to a 5.1-channel system. In addition, the acoustic image extending between the sides and the rear is narrowed, thus greatly improving the expression of the surround signals for sounds moving from the sides to the back and from the front to the point directly behind the listening position.

The AVR-4308 is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to achieve the same sense of presence as in a movie theater.
Dolby Surround
Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a multichannel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories. A total of 5.1-channels are played: 3 front channels (“FL” , “FR” and “C”), 2 surround channels (“SL” and “SR”) and the “LFE” channel for low frequencies. Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic sound field with a “three-dimensional” feeling (sense of distance, movement and positioning) is achieved. A real, overpowering sense of presence is achieved when playing movie sources in AV rooms as well.
Dolby Digital Plus
Dolby Digital Plus is an improved Dolby Digital signal format that is compatible with up to 7.1-channels of discrete digital sound and also improves sound quality thanks to extra data bit rate performance. It is upwardly compatible with conventional Dolby Digital, so it offers greater flexibility in response to the source signal and the conditions of the playback equipment.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is a high definition audio technology developed by Dolby Laboratories, using lossless coding technology to faithfully reproduce the sound of the studio master. This format is compatible with a maximum sampling frequency of 96 kHz and up to 7.1-channels, so it is used for applications particularly prioritizing sound quality.
Dolby Pro Logic g
Dolby Pro Logic g is a matrix decoding technology developed by Dolby Laboratories. Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5-channels to achieve an excellent surround effect. The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to create a “three-dimensional” sound image offering a rich sense of presence for all stereo sources.
Dolby Pro Logic gx
Dolby Pro Logic gx is a further improved version of the Dolby Pro Logic g matrix decoding technology.
Audio signals recorded in 2-channels are decoded to achieve a natural sound with up to 7.1-channels. There are 3 modes: “Music” suited for playing music, “Cinema” suited for playing movies, and “Game” which is optimized for playing games.
b Sources recorded in Dolby Surround
Sources recorded in Dolby Surround are indicated with the following logo marks. Dolby Surround support mark :

Advanced AL24 Processing Multi channel
Equipped with “Advanced AL24 Processing” time axis region information volume expansion
In addition to the existing “AL24 Processing Plus” bit expansion technology, DENON has also developed “Advanced AL24 Processing” that dramatically improves information volume in the time axis region using high-speed signal detection and processing technology. In addition to expanding original 16-bit digital data to 24 bits, “Advanced AL24 Processing” uses data interpolation along the time axis or up­converted sampling to achieve natural interpolation without losing the original data. A digital filter is used to further expand adaptability and perform optimum filtering calculations for ringing-free pulse response, pulsive music data and attack sounds. This results in the reproduction of such spatial information as the delicate nuances in the music, the positions of the performers, and the breadth, height, and depth of the concert hall. “Advanced AL24 Processing” is conducted for all channels and modes other than DSD DIRECT.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is a digital interface standard for next generation TVs based on DVI (Digital Visual Interface) standards and optimized for use in consumer equipment. Non-compressed digital video and multi-channel audio signals are transmitted with a single connection. HDMI is also compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection), a technology for protecting copyrights that encrypts digital video signals in the same was as with DVI.
Deep Color
Eliminates on-screen color banding, for smooth tonal transitions and subtle gradations between colors. Enables increased contrast ratio. Can represent many times more shades of gray between black and white. At 30-bit pixel depth, a four times improvement would be the minimum, and the typical improvement would be eight times or more.
xvYCC
Next-generation “xvYCC” color space supports 1.8 times as many colors as existing HDTV signals. Lets HDTVs display colors more accurately. Enables displays with natural, vivid colors.
Lip Sync
Because consumer electronics devices are using increasingly complex digital signal processing to enhance the clarity and detail of the content, synchronization of video and audio in user devices has become a greater challenge and could potentially require complex end­user adjustments. HDMI 1.3 incorporates an automatic video/audio synching capability that allows devices to perform this synchronization automatically with total accuracy.

IEEE 802.11g
This is another wireless LAN standard set by the 802 working group that establishes LAN technology standards at the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) of the United States, and is compatible with IEEE 802.11b. It also uses the 2.4 GHz band, but enables communications at a maximum speed of 54 Mbps.
The value indicated above is the maximum theoretical value for the wireless LAN standard, and does not indicate the actual data transfer rate.
Infrastructure Communications
“Infrastructure Communications” refers to networks using wireless LAN access points. This function can be used to connect to the Internet or a wired LAN via a wireless LAN access point. Wireless LAN access points include wireless broadband routers.
Ad-hoc Communications
Signal transfer through wireless interconnection of computers is referred to as “ad hoc communications”. With such ad hoc communications there is no connection to the Internet. Ad hoc communications are suited for establishing simple temporary networks.

Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi Certification assures tested and proven interoperability by the Wi-Fi Alliance, a group certifying interoperability among wireless LAN devices.
IEEE 802.11b
This is one wireless LAN standard set by the 802 working group that establishes LAN technology standards at the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) of the United States. It uses the
2.4 GHz band usable freely without a radio frequency license (ISM band), enabling communications at a maximum speed of 11 Mbps.
The value indicated above is the maximum theoretical value for the wireless LAN standard, and does not indicate the actual data transfer rate.
Network Names (SSID: Security Set Identifier)
When forming wireless LAN networks, groups are formed to prevent interference, data theft, etc. This grouping is done by “SSID” or “Security Set Identifiers”. For further security, a WEP key is set and signal transfer is not possible unless the SSID and WEP key match.
WEP Key (Network Key)
This is key information used for encrypting data when conducting data transfer. On the AVR-4308, the same WEP key is used for data encryption and decryption, so the same WEP key must be set on both devices in order for communications to be established between them.

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
This is a security standard established by the Wi-Fi Alliance. In addition to the conventional SSID (network name) and WEP key (network key), it also uses a user identification function and encrypting protocol for stronger security.
WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2)
This is a new version of the WPA established by the Wi-Fi Alliance, compatible with more secure AES encryption.
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK (Pre-shared Key)
This is a simple authentication system for mutual authentication when a preset character string matches on the wireless LAN access point and client.
Passphrase
This refers to the code key used for WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK authentication, a WPA authentication method.
TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
This is a network key used for WPA. The encryption algorithm is RC4, the same as for WEP, but the security level is increased by changing the network key used for encryption for each packet.
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
Information
This is a next generation standard encryption method replacing the current DES and 3DES, and because of its high security it is expected to be applied widely to wireless LANs in the future. It uses the “Rijndael” algorithm developed by two Belgian cryptographers to divide the data into blocks of fixed lengths and encrypt each block. It supports data lengths of 128, 192 and 256 bits and key lengths of 128, 192 and 256 bits as well, offering extremely high encryption security.
