IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

The AVR 3650 and AVR 2650 have been designed for use with 120-volt AC current. The AVR 365 and AVR 265 have been designed for use with 220 – 240-volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which your receiver is intended can create a safety and ﬁre hazard and may damage the unit. If you have any questions about the voltage requirements for your speciﬁc model, or about the line voltage in your area, contact your selling dealer before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Do Not Use Extension Cords

To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord supplied with your unit. We do not recommend that extension cords be used with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not run power cords under rugs or carpets, or place heavy objects on them. Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately by an authorized service center with a cord meeting factory speciﬁcations.

Handle the AC Power Cord Gently

When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always pull the plug; never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use your receiver for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.

Do Not Open the Cabinet

There are no user-serviceable components inside this product. Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any modiﬁcation to the product will void your warranty. If water or any metal object such as a paper clip, wire or staple accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immediately, and consult an authorized service center.

CATV or Antenna Grounding (AVR 3650/AVR 2650)

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to this product, be certain that it is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and static charges. Section 810 of the United States National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements of the grounding electrode.

NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER: This reminder is provided to call the CATV (cable TV) system installer’s attention to article 820-40 of the NEC, which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, speciﬁes that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as possible.

ENGLISH

Introduction to Home Theater

This introductory section will help you to familiarize yourself with some basic concepts unique to multichannel surround-sound receivers, which will make it easier for you to set up and operate your AVR.

Typical Home Theater System

A home theater typically includes an audio/video receiver, which controls the system and supplies ampliﬁcation for the loudspeakers; a disc player; a source component for television broadcasts (cable box, satellite dish receiver, HDTV tuner or antenna connected to the TV); a TV or video display; and multiple loudspeakers.

Multichannel Audio

The main beneﬁt of a home theater system is its ability to produce “surround sound.” Surround sound uses multiple speakers and ampliﬁer channels to immerse you in the audio/video presentation for a dramatically increased sense of realism.

Your AVR may have up to seven main speakers connected directly to it, plus a subwoofer. Each main speaker is powered by its own ampliﬁer channel inside the AVR. A system with more than two speakers is called a multichannel system. The different main speaker types in a home theater system are:

Front Left and Right: • The front left and right speakers are used as in a two-channel system. In many surround-sound modes, these speakers are secondary, while the main action, especially dialogue, is reproduced by the center speaker.

Center: • When you are watching movies and television programs, the center speaker reproduces most of the dialogue and other soundtrack information, anchoring it with the picture. When you are listening to a musical program, the center speaker helps to create a seamless front soundstage, creating a realistic “you-are-there” listening experience.

Surround Left and Right: • The surround left and right speakers produce ambient sounds that help create a realistic and immersive surround-sound environment. They also help recreate directional sound effects such as aircraft ﬂyovers.

Surround Back Left and Right: • Surround back channel speakers are used with surround modes such as the Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-ES DTS-HD Master Audio™ and Logic 7® 7.1 modes that are designed for 7.1-channel systems.

The surround back channel speakers are optional. If your system does not include surround back left and right speakers, you can set up your AVR with a 5.1-channel surround-sound system in the main listening area, and you can reassign the surround back channel ampliﬁers to power loudspeakers located in another room in a multizone system. (Alternately, you can reassign the surround back channel ampliﬁers to power front height speakers for use with Dolby Pro Logic IIz. See page 36, for more information.)

Many people expect the surround speakers to play as loudly as the front speakers. Although you will calibrate all of the speakers in your system to sound equally loud at the listening position, most artists use the surround speakers for ambient effects only, and they create their programs to steer relatively little sound to these speakers.

Subwoofer: • A subwoofer is designed to play only the lowest frequencies (the deep bass). It augments smaller, limited-range main speakers that are usually used for the other channels. Many digital-format programs, such as movies recorded in Dolby Digital, contain a low-frequency effects (LFE) channel that is directed to the subwoofer. The LFE channel packs the punch of a rumbling train or airplane, or the power of an explosion, adding realism and excitement to your home theater. Some people use two subwoofers for additional power and for even distribution of the sound.

Surround Modes

There are different theories as to the best way to present surround sound and to distribute each audio channel’s sounds to the surround-sound system’s speakers. A variety of algorithms have been developed in an effort to recreate the way we hear sounds in the real world, resulting in a rich variety of options. Several companies have developed different surround-sound technologies, all of which can be accurately reproduced by your AVR:

Dolby Laboratories: • Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic

DTS: • DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS, DTS-ES (Discrete and Matrix), DTS Neo:6

HARMAN International: • Logic 7

Stereo Modes: • Generic modes that expand upon conventional two-channel stereo,

including 5CH and 7CH Stereo.

Appendix Table A12, on page 50, contains detailed explanations of the different surround-sound options available on your AVR. Digital surround-sound modes, such as the Dolby Digital and DTS modes, are available only on specially encoded programs, such as those available via HDTV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc media and digital cable or satellite television. Other surround modes may be used with digital and analog signals to create a different surround presentation or to use a different number of speakers. Surround-mode selection depends upon the number of speakers in your system, the program you are watching or listening to, and your personal tastes.

Place Your Speakers

Determine the locations for your system’s speakers according to their manufacturer’s directions and the layout of your listening room. Use the illustrations below as a guide for

7.1-channel and 5.1-channel systems.

To create the most realistic surround-sound environment possible, you should place your speakers in a circle with the listening position at its center. You should angle each speaker so it directly faces the listening position. Use the diagrams below as a guide.

SUB

NOTE: In a 7.1-channel system, you must choose to use either surround back speakers or front height speakers – you cannot use both simultaneously.

Placing the Left, Center and Right Speakers

Place the center speaker either on top of, below or mounted on the wall above or below the TV or video display screen. Place the front left and right speakers along the circle, about 30 degrees from the center speaker and angled toward the listener.

Place the front left, front right and center speakers at the same height, preferably at about the same height as the listener’s ears. The center speaker should be no more than 2 feet (0.6m) above or below the left/right speakers. If you’re using only two speakers with your AVR, place them in the front left and right positions.

Placing the Surround Speakers in a 5.1-Channel System

You should place the left and right surround speakers approximately 110 degrees from the center speaker, slightly behind and angled toward the listener. Alternatively, place them behind the listener, with each surround speaker facing the opposite-side front speaker. You should place the surround speakers 2 feet – 6 feet (0.6m – 1.8m) higher than the listener’s ears.

Placing the Surround Speakers in a 7.1-Channel System

In a 7.1-channel system, place the side surround speakers 90 degrees from the center speaker, directly to either side of the listening position. Place the surround back left and right speakers 150 degrees from the center speaker, directly facing the opposite-side front speaker. You should place all the surround speakers 2 feet – 6 feet (0.6m – 1.8m) higher than the listener’s ears.

Placing Front Height Speakers in a 7.1-Channel System

Your AVR includes Dolby Pro Logic IIz decoding, which uses the AVR’s Assigned Amp channels as front height channels. The addition of front height channels – an additional pair of speakers positioned above the front left and right speakers – produces a surroundsound experience with added depth and dimension by creating lifelike sound that comes at you from varying heights.

We recommend placing front height speakers at least 3 feet (0.9m) higher than the front left and front right speakers, and directly above or farther apart than the front left and right speakers. The higher and further apart you place the front height speakers, the more you should angle them down and in toward the listening position.

SUB

NOTE: Your receiver will sound its best when the same model or brand of loudspeaker is used for all positions.

Placing the Subwoofer

Because a room’s shape and volume can have a dramatic effect on a subwoofer’s performance, it is best to experiment with placement so that you will ﬁnd the location that produces the best results in your particular listening room. With that in mind, these rules will help you get started:

Placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the amount of bass in the • room.

Placing the subwoofer in a corner generally will maximize the amount of bass in the • room.

In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the left and right • speakers can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the left and right speakers.

In some rooms, the best performance could even result from placing the subwoofer • behind the listening position.

A good way to determine the best location for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be placed), and listen until you ﬁnd the location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that location.

AVR

Types of Home Theater System Connections

There are different types of audio and video connections used to connect the AVR to your speakers, your TV or video display, and your source devices. The Consumer Electronics Association has established the CEA® color-coding standard.

Speaker Connections

Speaker cables carry an ampliﬁed signal from the AVR’s speaker terminals to each loudspeaker. They contain two wire conductors, or leads, that are differentiated in some way, such as with colors or stripes.

The differentiation helps you maintain proper polarity, without which your system’s lowfrequency performance can suffer. Each speaker is connected to the AVR’s speakeroutput terminals using two wires, one positive (+) and one negative (–). Always connect the positive terminal on the speaker, which is usually colored red, to the positive terminal on the receiver, which is colored as indicated in the Connection Color Guide Table, above. The negative terminals on the speakers and the AVR are black.

Your AVR uses binding-post speaker terminals that can accept bare-wire cables or banana plugs. Bare-wire cables are installed as shown below:

1. Unscrew Cap 3. Tighten Cap2. Insert Bare Wire

Banana plugs are inserted into the hole in the middle of the terminal cap, as shown below:

A. Tighten Cap B. Insert Banana Connector

into Hole in Cap

Subwoofer Connections

The subwoofer is a speaker dedicated to reproducing only the low (bass) frequencies, which require more power. To obtain the best results, most speaker manufacturers offer powered subwoofers that contain their own ampliﬁers. Use a single RCA audio cable to make a line-level (non-ampliﬁed) connection from the AVR’s Subwoofer connector to a corresponding input jack on the subwoofer.

Although the AVR’s purple subwoofer output looks similar to a full-range analog audio jack, it is ﬁltered so that only the low frequencies pass through it. Don’t connect this output to any device other than a subwoofer.

Source Device Connections

Audio and video signals originate in source devices (components where a playback signal originates) such as your Blu-ray Disc or DVD player, CD player, DVR (digital video recorder) or other recorder, tape deck, game console, cable or satellite television tuner, an iPod or iPhone (docked in an optional The Bridge IIIP docking station) or an MP3 player. The AVR’s FM/AM tuner also counts as a source, even though no external connections are needed other than the FM and AM antennas and an optional SIRIUS tuner module. Separate connections are required for the audio and video portions of the source device’s signal, except for digital HDMI connections. The types of connections you use will depend upon the capabilities of the source device and of your TV or video display.

Digital Audio Connections – HDMI

There are two types of audio connections – digital and analog. Digital audio signals are required for listening to sources encoded with digital surround modes, such as Dolby Digital and DTS, or for uncompressed PCM digital audio. Your AVR has three types of digital audio connections: HDMI, coaxial and optical. Do not use more than one type of digital audio connection for each source device. However, it’s okay to make both analog and digital audio connections to the same source.

Your AVR is equipped with ﬁve rear-panel HDMI input connectors, and one HDMI monitor output connector. (The AVR 3650 and AVR 365 also have a front-panel HDMI input connector.) HDMI technology enables digital audio and video information to be carried using a single cable, delivering the highest quality picture and sound. If your TV or video display device has an HDMI input connector, make a single HDMI connection from each source device to the AVR. Usually, a separate digital audio connection is not required.

The AVR’s HDMI monitor output connection contains an Audio Return Channel (ARC) that carries a digital audio signal from your TV or video display back to the AVR. It allows you to listen to HDMI devices that are connected directly to your TV (such as an Internet connection) without making an additional connection from the device to the AVR. The ARC signal is active when the TV source is selected. See for more information.

The HDMI connector is shaped for easy plug-in (see illustration, below), and HDMI cable runs are limited to about 10 feet (3m). If your video display has a DVI input and is HDCP-compliant, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter (not included), and make a separate audio connection.

System Settings

, on page 39,

Always connect the colored (+) terminal on the AVR to the (+) terminal on the speaker (usually red), and the black (–) terminal on the AVR to the (–) terminal on the speaker (usually black).

IMPORTANT: Make sure the ( + ) and ( – ) bare wires do not touch each other or the other terminal. Touching wires can cause a short circuit that can damage your receiver or ampliﬁer.

AVR

Types of Home Theater System Connections

Digital Audio Connections – Coaxial

Coaxial digital audio jacks are usually color-coded in orange. Although they look like standard RCA-type analog jacks, you should not connect coaxial digital audio outputs to analog inputs or vice versa.

Digital Audio Connections – Optical

Optical digital audio connectors are normally covered by a shutter to protect them from dust. The shutter opens as the cable is inserted. Optical input connectors are colorcoded using a black shutter, while optical outputs use a gray shutter.

Analog Audio Connections

Two-channel analog connections require a stereo audio cable, with one connector for the left channel (white) and one for the right channel (red). These two connectors are attached to each other.

Video Connections

Many source devices output both audio and video signals (e.g., Blu-ray Disc, DVD player, cable television box, HDTV tuner, satellite box, VCR, DVR). In addition to an audio connection as described above, make a video connection for each of these source devices. Make only one type of video connection for each device.

Digital Video Connections

If you have already connected a source device to one of the AVR’s HDMI input connectors, you have automatically made a video connection for that device, since the HDMI cable carries both digital audio and digital video signals.

Analog Video Connections – Composite Video

Your AVR uses two types of analog video connections: composite video and component video.

Composite video is the basic connection most commonly available. Both the chrominance (color) and luminance (intensity) components of the video signal are transmitted using a single cable. The jack is usually color-coded yellow and looks like an analog audio jack. Do not connect a composite video jack to an analog audio or coaxial digital audio jack, or vice versa.

Analog Video Connections – Component Video

Component video separates the video signal into three components – one luminance (“Y”) and two sub-sampled color signals (“Pb” and “Pr”) – that are transmitted using three separate cables that are color-coded green (Y), blue (Pb) and red (Pr). Component video cables that join three separate green, blue and red connectors into a single cable are sold separately.

ENGLISH

For source devices that have both digital and analog audio outputs, you may make both connections. If you are going to be setting up a multizone system, remember that Zone 2 is an audio-only zone (the AVR does not have a Zone 2 video output). Therefore, make analog connections for any audio source devices (such as a CD changer) that you will want available for listening in Zone 2 at all times.

The analog connections also feed the analog record outputs. You may record materials from Blu-ray Disc recordings, DVDs or other copy-protected sources using only analog connections. Remember to comply with all copyright laws if you choose to make a copy for your own personal use.

The Bridge IIIP Connection

Your AVR includes a proprietary, dedicated connector for an optional The Bridge IIIP docking station for the iPod or iPhone. The Bridge IIIP outputs analog audio to the AVR and is available as a source to Zone 2 in a multizone system.

If your TV or video display has an HDMI connection, we recommend it as the best quality connection. Your AVR converts composite and component analog video input signals to the HDMI format, upscaling them to high-deﬁnition 1080p resolution.

AVR

Types of Home Theater System Connections

Radio Connections

Your AVR uses separate terminals for the included FM and AM antennas. The FM antenna uses a 75-ohm F-connector.

The AM antenna connector uses spring-clip terminals. After assembling the antenna as shown below, press the levers to open the connectors, insert the bare wires into the openings, and release the levers to secure the wires. The antenna wires are not polarized, so you can insert either wire into either connector.

SIRIUS Satellite Radio

To enjoy SIRIUS satellite radio, purchase a SIRIUSConnect tuner module and a subscription to the SIRIUS service. Visit www.sirius.com for information on SIRIUSConnect tuner modules. The SiriusConnect modules include an eight-pin DIN cable for connection to the eight-pin jack on the AVR, allowing you to control the tuner module via the AVR. Although you may also use a “plug-and-play” tuner module equipped with standard audio connections, you will not be able to use the AVR to control the SIRIUS tuner.

USB Port

The USB port on your AVR is used for ﬁrmware upgrades. If an upgrade for the AVR’s operating system is released in the future, you will be able to download it to the AVR using this port. Complete instructions will be provided at that time.

In addition to performing ﬁrmware upgrades, the AVR 3650/AVR 365 can play MP3 and WMA audio ﬁles from a USB device inserted into the USB port. Insert the device into the USB port with the device’s plug oriented so it ﬁts all the way into the port. You may insert or remove the device at any time – there is no installation or ejection procedure.

IMPORTANT: Do not connect a PC or other USB host/controller to the AVR’s USB port, or you may damage both the AVR and the other device.

RS-232 Connector

Your AVR’s RS-232 serial port may be connected to an external control system to allow it to transmit control commands to the AVR. The port is bidirectional so that the AVR can transmit status updates to the control device. Connecting and using the RS-232 port requires considerable technical knowledge and is best left to a professional custom installer.

Network Connector

The AVR’s Network connector allows you to enjoy Internet radio or content from other DLNA-compatible devices that are connected to the same network. Use a Cat. 5 or Cat. 5E cable to connect the AVR’s RJ-45 connector to your home network.

The connectors are not labeled for speciﬁc types of source devices; they are labeled numerically, so you can connect your devices according to your individual system’s makeup.

Your AVR’s various source buttons have default assignments to different input connectors (listed in the “Default Source Button” column of the table below). For ease of setup, you should connect each source device to the connector where the corresponding default

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Installing a multizone system typically requires running cables inside walls. Always comply with the appropriate safety codes when installing concealed wiring, particularly all applicable building codes. Failure to do so may present a safety hazard. If you have any doubt about your ability to work with electrical wiring, hire a licensed electrician or custom installer to install the multizone system.

NOTE: Only the following analog audio sources are available to Zone 2: the internal radio

Program the Remote to Control Your Source Devices and TV

You can program your AVR remote to control many brands and models of audio/video source devices and TVs. The remote is also ready to operate your iPod or iPhone when the iPod/iPhone is docked in a connected The Bridge IIIP (not included).

Each of the remote’s Source Selector buttons has been preprogrammed to control certain types of source devices:

Cable/Sat: Controls cable TV and satellite TV tuner boxes

Blu-ray: Controls Blu-ray Disc and DVD players

Bridge: Controls an iPod/iPhone device docked in a connected The Bridge IIIP

Radio: Controls the AVR’s built-in FM/AM tuner and a connected SIRIUSConnect tuner

TV: Controls TVs and video displays

USB (AVR 3650/AVR 365): Browses compatible media on a USB device that is

inserted in the AVR’s USB port (AVR 3650/AVR 365 only)

DVR (AVR 2650/AVR 265): Controls TiVo

Game: Controls video-game consoles

Media Server: Controls media servers

Network: Browses compatible media on DLNA-compatible devices connected to your

home network.

AUX: Controls HDTV tuner boxes, CD players, VCRs and PVDs.

Although the Source Selector buttons are preprogrammed for the device types listed above, you can reassign a Source Selector button to a different device type. See

Set Up the Remote Control

Once you have programmed the remote, you can switch the remote’s control mode to access the functions for a particular device by pressing the remote’s Source Selector button for that device. To control the receiver, press the remote’s Setup button.

Follow these steps to program the Source Selector buttons for your source devices:

Turn on the source device you want to program the remote to control.1.

Look up the code numbers for the device in 2. Tables A14 – A24 in the Appendix. Write all the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.

Press the Source Selector button for the device and hold it as it glows red, goes dark 3. and glows red again. Then release it. The remote is now in the Programming mode.

NOTE: The remote will remain in the Programming mode for 20 seconds. If you do not complete Step 4 within 20 seconds, the remote will exit the Programming mode, and you will need to repeat Step 3.

Aim the remote at the source device and use the remote’s Number buttons to enter a 4. code number from Step 1, above.

If the device turns off, press the Source Selector button again to save the code. The a) Source Selector button will ﬂash, and the remote will exit the Programming mode.

If the device does not turn off, enter another code number. b)

If you run out of code numbers for a device, you can search through all of the codes c) in the remote’s library for dervices of its type by pressing the remote’s Up button repeatedly until the device turns off. When it does, press the Source Selector button to save the code.

Check that other functions control the device correctly. Sometimes manufacturers use 5. the same Power code for several models, while other function codes vary. Repeat this process until you’ve programmed a satisfactory code set that operates most of the device’s functions.

If you searched through the remote’s code library to ﬁnd the code, you can ﬁnd out 6. which code number you have programmed by pressing and holding the Source Selector button to re-enter the Programming Mode. Then press the remote’s OK Button, and the Source Selector button will ﬂash in the code sequence. One ﬂash represents “1,” two ﬂashes for “2,” and so forth. A series of quick ﬂashes represents “0.” Record the code number programmed for each device in Table A9 in the Appendix.

Repeat Steps 3 – 6 for each source device you want to control with the AVR remote.

Reassigning a Source Selector Button for a Different Device Type

You can reassign a Source Button to control a different device type (for example, you can program the Media Server button to control a DVD player).

Turn on the source device you want the remote to control.1.

Look up the code numbers for the device in 2. Tables A14 – A24 in the Appendix. Write all the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.

Press the Source Selector button you want to override and hold it for three seconds 3. as it glows red, goes dark and glows red again. Then release it. The remote is now in the Programming mode.

Press the Source Selector button that corresponds to the source device’s type (i.e., 4. for a DVD player, press the Blu-ray button). The Source Selector button you pressed in Step 3 will ﬂash once.

Aim the remote at the source device and use the remote’s Number buttons to enter a 5. code number from Step 2, above.

If the device turns off, press the Source Selector button from Step 3 again to a) save the code. The Source Selector button will ﬂash, and the remote will exit the Programming mode.

If the device does not turn off, enter another code number. b)

If you run out of code numbers for a device, you can search through all of the codes c) in the remote’s library for devices of its type by pressing the remote’s Up button repeatedly until the device turns off. When it does, press the Source Selector button from Step 3 to save the code.

Most of the button labels on the AVR remote describe each button’s function when the remote is used to control the AVR. However, the button may perform a different function when used to control another device. Refer to the Remote Control Function List, Table A13 in the Appendix.

You can also program the remote to perform Macros (preprogrammed code sequences that execute many code commands with a single button press), and for “punchthrough” programming (allowing the remote to operate a device’s channel or transport controls when the remote is in another device’s mode). See

Programming

Learning (AVR 3650/AVR 365 only)

If you have the device’s original remote control, you may “teach” its individual button codes into the following “destination” buttons on the AVR 3650/AVR 365 remote:

Device Power On/Off buttons, Number buttons, Last button, Back/Exit button, Menu button, Up/Down/Left/Right buttons, OK button, Disc Menu button, A/B/C/D buttons, Channel Up/Down buttons, Volume Up/Down buttons, Mute button, Transport Control buttons.

Place the two remotes with their IR transmitters facing each other, about 1 inch 1. (25mm) apart.

Press the AVR remote’s Source Selector button for the source device, then press and 2. hold the Learn button until the Source Selector button glows red. The remote is now in the Learning mode.

On the AVR remote, choose a destination button that will learn the source device 3. remote’s function. Press the destination button, and the Source Selector will ﬂash once.

On the source device’s remote, press and hold the button with the function that you 4. want to teach to the AVR remote until the Source Selector button ﬂashes three times. The source device remote’s button has now taught the AVR remote’s destination button to perform its function on that source.

You can program additional buttons for this source by repeating Steps 3 – 4. You can 5. program buttons for other sources by repeating Steps 1 – 4.

When you’re ﬁnished, press the Learn button once to exit the Learning mode, or wait for the remote to exit the Learning mode on its own after about 30 seconds.

Resolution from Source: This line is informational only. It indicates the resolution of the video output by the source device.

HDMI Bypass: This setting allows you to bypass the AVR’s internal video processing for proper display of 3-D video content and of source devices (such as some game consoles) where the AVR's video processing can create delays that can cause synchronization errors between the sound and picture. There are three available settings:

Off: Does not bypass the AVR's internal video processing. •

On: Always bypasses the AVR's internal video processing. •

Auto: Automatically bypasses the AVR's internal video processing when 3-D content • is detected.

IMPORTANT: Once the AVR automatically switches into the bypass mode upon detecting 3-D video content, it will not automatically switch out of the bypass mode when it detects conventional 2-D video content. To turn the HDMI Bypass off you must cycle the AVR into the Standby mode and then turn it on again.

We suggest that you create an additional source conﬁguration for each of your 3-D video source devices by assigning each an unused Source Selector button on the AVR’s remote control. For example, you can assign the AVR’s “Media Server” source as the 3-D source for a 3-D-capable disc player or game, and you can assign one of the AVR’s “A/B/C/D” source buttons as the 3-D source for your cable or satellite tuner’s 3-D programming.

Creating “HDMI Bypass” Inputs

In this example, we will program the Media Server source as an HDMI Bypass source for 3-D programming:

Select “Setup Source.” The source list will appear.1.

Select “Media Server.” The Media Server setup screen will appear.2.

Select “HDMI Bypass.” A conﬁrmation screen will appear.3.

Select “OK.” The AVR will exit the menu mode.4.

Repeat Steps 1 – 4, assigning a new 3-D source for each of your 3-D-capable source devices.

Audio Auto Polling: This setting is used when both analog and digital audio connections are made for the source device. If an analog audio connection was made, select it here. When no digital signal comes from the device, the AVR will automatically switch to the analog audio input. This switch can be useful for older cable television systems that broadcast channels in both analog and digital audio. If there is no analog audio connection from the device, choose the Off setting, and the AVR will always use the digital audio connection.

Zone 2 Audio: This setting determines the audio source for Zone 2 of a multizone system. Select the analog audio input the source is connected to. Digital audio is not available to the multizone system.

To conﬁgure the next source, press the Back/Exit button, then return to the Setup Source line of the Main Menu. When you have ﬁnished conﬁguring all sources, press the Back/Exit button to clear the menus from view.

Set Up the Network

To play MP3 or WMA media located on DLNA-compatible devices connected to the network or to use the AVR’s internal Internet radio tuner to listen to audio streams, connect the AVR’s Network connector to the Ethernet port on a router or modem that has Internet access, to a home network, or to a PC.

If your network uses an automatic IP address, you should not have to perform any network setup procedures. Once you connect the AVR to your home network, the network should automatically assign the AVR an IP address, and the AVR should automatically connect to your network.

If your AVR does not automatically connect to your network (in which case the AVR will display a “Not Connected” message when you press the Network source button):

Press the Setup button, select Setup Source, then select Network on the slide-in menu. 1. The Network menu will appear.

Select Network Setup. The Network Settings menu will appear.2.

ENGLISH

Notes:

When using your AVR with these new settings, be sure to press the correct source • selectors for your 2-D and 3-D sources.

If you are viewing 3-D sources when an HDMI Bypass input is active, the • on-screen indications for volume level will not appear. This is normal, since all video processing is removed in the HDMI Bypass mode.

If your video sources are always operating at 720p or higher resolution, you may • ﬁnd the HDMI Bypass mode acceptable for normal 2-D viewing as well as for 3-D viewing. In this case, you may ﬁnd it more convenient to use the 3-D sources at all times.

If you see side-by-side or top-and-bottom images while watching a 3-D program, • manually switch to the HDMI Bypass mode.

Change Name: This selection lets you change the display name for the source, which is useful if your source’s device type is different from the source’s preprogrammed name. Select this line and use the Up/Down buttons to scroll forward or reverse through the alphanumeric characters. When the desired character appears, use the Left/Right buttons to move the cursor to the next or previous position. Move the cursor again to leave a blank space. When you have ﬁnished, press the OK Button. The name will appear on the AVR’s front panel and throughout the on-screen menu system.

Adjust Lip Sync: This selection lets you resynchronize the audio and video signals from a source to eliminate a “lip sync” problem. Lip-sync issues can occur when the video portion of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source device or the video display. When you make a Lip Sync adjustment, the Lip Sync menu appears by itself, enabling you to view the video while listening to the audio. Use the Left/ Right buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms.

Select Network Settings, the press the OK button twice to cycle the setting from 3. “Automatic” to “Manual” and back to “Automatic.”

Select Apply & Save. The AVR will enter the Standby mode. When you turn the AVR back 4. on, it will attempt to connect to the network.

If the AVR again fails to connect to the network, you may need to enter your network’s 5. settings manually. See complete instructions. You may need to obtain your network’s settings from your ISP or network administrator.

NOTE: We recommend that you connect the AVR to a home-network router so that it can directly access the Internet for Internet radio, or access a PC on the network for playback of content stored on the PC (see on page 32, for more information).

Operating Your AVR

Now that you have installed your components and completed a basic conﬁguration, you are ready to begin enjoying your home theater system.

Controlling the Volume

Adjust the volume either by turning the front-panel Volume knob (clockwise to increase volume or counterclockwise to decrease volume) or by pressing the Volume Up/Down buttons on the remote. The volume is displayed as a negative number of decibels (dB) below the 0dB reference point (-90dB – +10dB).

0dB is the maximum recommended volume for your AVR. Although it’s possible to turn the volume to a higher level, doing so may damage your hearing and your speakers. For certain more dynamic audio materials, even 0dB may be too high, allowing for damage to equipment. Use caution with regard to volume levels.

To change the volume level display from the default decibel scale to a 0-to-90 scale, adjust the Volume Units setting in the System Settings menu, as described in

Settings

, on page 39.

Muting the Sound

To mute all speakers and the headphones, press the Mute button on the remote. Any recording in progress will not be affected. The MUTE message will appear in the display as a reminder. To restore the sound, press the Mute button again, or adjust the volume.

Dolby Volume

Your AVR implements Dolby Volume processing, which can improve the audio performance of the system by revealing subtle details in the sound, even at normal home-listening volumes.

One concern of the typical home theater listener is that volumes can vary widely for different programs played by a source (e.g., television commercial advertisements are often much louder than the main program). Another is that details heard in the recording studio at typically high reference volumes are lost at the lower volumes used by many listeners at home.

The AVR uses two Dolby Volume techniques to address these issues. The Leveler module maintains a consistent listening volume within a source (e.g., commercial television or different tracks on a USB drive or mix CD). The Modeler module endeavors to re-create the reference presentation that was heard in the recording studio without losing portions of the program at the typically lower volume levels often used in the home. When the Modeler module is active, you may notice details of the performance that were hidden when the program was played on other equipment.

To adjust the Dolby Volume setting, press the Audio Effects button. The Audio Effects submenu will appear.

After you highlight the Dolby Volume setting, each press of the OK button will switch to one of the options in the table below. The settings do not refer to the volume level, which is adjusted normally using the AVR’s Volume Control, but rather to the amount of Dolby Volume processing desired.

NOTE: Dolby Volume processing is compatible with sources recorded at a sampling rate of 48kHz. High-resolution sources, such as DTS 96/24 programs, will be decoded at 48kHz. DTS 96/24 programs will be played in DTS 5.1 mode. To hear DTS 96/24 materials in high resolution, turn off Dolby Volume processing.

Dolby Volume Calibration

Dolby Volume calibration allows you to adjust the operation of the Dolby Volume circuitry to match your particular speakers and listening environment. The Dolby Volume circuitry in your AVR is factory-calibrated with average speaker sensitivity in mind; however, different speakers may have different sensitivities, which will affect the overall performance of the Dolby Volume circuitry. Use Dolby Volume calibration to adjust the calibration of the circuitry according to the speciﬁc speakers you have.

The average home audio speaker sensitivity is 88dB SPL (1 watt/1 meter). Check the sensitivity speciﬁcation for your loudspeakers, found in the owner’s manual or on the manufacturer’s Web site. If your speakers have a sensitivity rating greater than 88dB SPL, increase Dolby Volume calibration by the difference between your speakers’ sensitivity and 88dB. If they have a sensitivity rating of less than 88dB SPL, decrease Dolby Volume calibration by the difference between your speakers’ sensitivity and 88dB.

To adjust the Dolby Volume calibration, press the AVR button and select the “System” menu. Scroll to the Dolby Volume calibration line, which defaults to 0dB. Use the Left/ Right buttons to adjust the setting within the range of –10dB to +10dB.

Listening Through Headphones

Plug the 1/4-inch stereo plug on a pair of headphones into the front-panel Phones jack for private listening. The default Headphone Bypass mode delivers a conventional twochannel signal to the headphones. Press the Surround Modes button on the front panel or the remote to switch to HARMAN headphone virtual surround processing, which emulates a 5.1-channel speaker system. No other surround modes are available for the headphones.

Selecting a Source

There are three different ways to select a source:

Press the front-panel Source List button. Use the Up/Down buttons to scroll through • the sources, and press the OK button to select the source being displayed.

Using the on-screen menus, press the AVR button, highlight “Source Select” and press • the OK button. Scroll to the desired source in the slide-in menu and press the OK button.

You can directly select any source by pressing its Source Selector button on the • remote.

The AVR selects the audio and video inputs assigned to the source, and any other settings you made during setup.

The source name, the audio and video inputs assigned to the source, and the surround mode will appear on the front panel. The source name and active surround mode will also brieﬂy appear on the TV screen.

Video Troubleshooting Tips

If there is no picture:

Check the source selection and video input assignment. •

Check all connections for a loose or incorrect connection. •

Check the video input selection on the TV/display device. •

Press the front-panel Resolution button and use the Up/Down buttons until the • correct video output resolution is selected and a picture appears. The CANCEL message will also appear. Press the Down button to view the ACCEPT option, then press the OK button.

Additional Tips for Troubleshooting HDMI Connections

Turn off all devices (including the TV, the AVR and any source components). •

Unplug the HDMI cables, starting with the cable between the AVR and the TV, and • continuing with the cables between the AVR and each source device.

Carefully reconnect the cables from the source devices to the AVR. Connect the • cable from the AVR to the TV last.

Turn on the devices in this order: TV, AVR, source devices. •

NOTE: Depending upon the particular components involved, the complexity of the required communication between HDMI components may cause delays of up to a minute in the completion of some actions, such as input switching or switching between SD and HD channels.

Listening to FM and AM Radio

Select the Radio source. A screen similar to the one in the illustration below will appear. (Note: The SIRIUS band uses a different screen.)

Use the Up/Down buttons or the Remote’s Channel buttons to tune a station (or channel for SIRIUS Radio), as displayed on the front panel and on-screen display.

The AVR defaults to automatic tuning, meaning each press of the Up/Down buttons scans up or down the frequency band until a station with acceptable signal strength is found. To switch to manual tuning, in which each press of the Up/Down buttons steps through a single tuning frequency increment, press the remote’s Menu button. A slide-in menu will appear. Select “Mode,” and press the OK button to toggle between automatic and manual tuning modes.

Once you have tuned an FM station, toggling the Mode setting also switches the radio between stereo and monaural reception. (Mono reception may improve reception of weaker stations.)

Preset Stations

You can store a total of 30 stations (AM and FM combined) as presets. When you want to save the currently tuned station as a preset, press the OK button, and two dashes will ﬂash. Use the Number buttons to enter the desired preset number.

To tune to a preset station:

Press the Left/Right buttons. •

Selecting a Surround Mode

Selecting a surround mode can be as simple or sophisticated as your individual system and tastes. Feel free to experiment, and you may ﬁnd a few favorites for

Player version 11 or higher, Windows

certain sources or program types. You can ﬁnd more detailed information on surround

Audio Processing and Surround Sound

modes in

, on page 33.

To select a surround mode, press the Surround Modes button (front panel or remote). The Surround Modes menu will appear.

Press the Up/Down buttons repeatedly until the desired surround-mode category appears: Auto Select, Virtual Surround, Stereo, Movie, Music or Video Game. Press the OK button to change the surround-mode category.

Auto Select: For digital programs, such as a movie recorded with a Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack, the AVR will automatically use the soundtrack’s native surround format.

AVR

Advanced Functions

Much of the adjusting and conﬁguration your AVR requires is handled automatically, with little intervention required on your part. You can also customize your AVR to suit your system and your tastes. In this section we will describe some of the more advanced adjustments available to you.

Audio Processing and Surround Sound

Audio signals can be encoded in a variety of formats that can affect not only the quality of the sound but the number of speaker channels and the surround mode. You may also manually select a different surround mode, when available.

Analog Audio Signals

Analog audio signals usually consist of two channels – left and right. Your AVR offers two options for analog playback:

DSP Surround Off Mode:1. The DSP Surround Off mode digitizes the incoming signal and applies the bass-management settings, including speaker conﬁguration, delay times and output levels. Select this mode when your front speakers are small, limitedrange satellites and you are using a subwoofer. To select this mode, use a digital audio input or turn the Tone Control setting off, then select 2 CH Stereo mode.

Analog Surround Modes:2. Your AVR is able to process two-channel audio signals to produce multichannel surround sound, even when no surround sound has been encoded in the recording. Among the available modes are the Dolby Pro Logic II/IIx/IIz, HARMAN Virtual Speaker, DTS Neo:6, Logic 7, 5 CH and 7 CH Stereo modes. To select one of these modes, press the Surround Modes button.

Digital Audio Signals

Digital audio signals offer greater ﬂexibility and capacity than analog signals, and allow the encoding of discrete channel information directly into the signal. The result is improved sound quality and startling directionality, since each channel’s information is transmitted discretely. High-resolution recordings sound extraordinarily distortion-free, especially in the high frequencies.

Surround Modes

Surround-mode selection depends upon the format of the incoming audio signal as well as your personal taste. Although there is never a time when all of the AVR’s surround modes are available, there is usually a wide variety of modes available for a given input. Table A12 in the Appendix, on page 50, offers a brief description of each mode and indicates the types of incoming signals or digital bitstreams the mode may be used with. Additional information about the Dolby and DTS modes is available on the companies’ Web sites: www.dolby.com and www.dtsonline.com.

When in doubt, check the jacket of your disc for more information on which surround modes are available. Usually, nonessential sections of the disc, such as trailers, extra materials or the disc menu, are available only in Dolby Digital 2.0 (two-channel) or PCM two-channel mode. If the main title is playing and the display shows one of these surround modes, look for an audio or language setup section in the disc’s menu. Also, make sure your disc player’s audio output is set to the original bitstream rather than twochannel PCM. Stop play and check the player’s output setting.

Multichannel digital recordings are produced in ﬁve-channel, six-channel or sevenchannel formats, with or without a “.1” channel. The channels included in a typical

5.1-channel recording are front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right and LFE (low-frequency effects). The LFE channel is denoted as “.1” to represent the fact that it is limited to the low frequencies. 6.1-channel recordings add a single surround back channel, and 7.1-channel recordings add surround back left and surround back right channels to the 5.1-channel conﬁguration. New formats are available in 7.1-channel conﬁgurations. Your AVR is able to play the new audio formats, delivering a more exciting home theater experience.

NOTE: To use the 6.1- and 7.1-channel surround modes, the surround back channels must be enabled. See

Digital formats include Dolby Digital 2.0 (two channels only), Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital EX (6.1), Dolby Digital Plus (7.1), Dolby TrueHD (7.1), DTS-HD High-Resolution Audio (7.1), DTS-HD Master Audio (7.1), DTS 5.1, DTS-ES (6.1 Matrix and Discrete), DTS 96/24 (5.1), two-channel PCM modes in 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz, and 5.1 or 7.1 multichannel PCM.

When the AVR receives a digital signal, it detects the encoding method and the number of channels, which is displayed brieﬂy as three numbers, separated by slashes (e.g., “3/2/.1”).

Manual Speaker Setup

, on page 36 for more information.

The ﬁrst number indicates the number of front channels in the signal: “1” represents a monophonic recording (usually an older program that has been digitally remastered or, more rarely, a modern program for which the director has chosen mono as a special effect). “2” indicates the presence of the left and right channels, but no center channel. “3” indicates that all three front channels (left, right and center) are present.

The second number indicates whether any surround channels are present: “0” indicates that no surround information is present. “1” indicates that a matrixed surround signal is present. “2” indicates discrete left and right surround channels. “3” is used with DTS-ES bitstreams to represent the presence of the discrete surround back channel, in addition to the side surround left and right channels. “4” is used with 7.1-channel digital formats to indicate the presence of two discrete side surround channels and two discrete back surround channels.

The third number is used for the LFE channel: “0” indicates no LFE channel. “.1” indicates that an LFE channel is present.

The 6.1-channel signals – Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES Matrix and Discrete – each include a ﬂag that signals the receiver to decode the surround back channel, indicated as 3/2/.1 EX-ON for Dolby Digital EX materials, and 3/3/.1 ES-ON for DTS-ES materials.

Dolby Digital 2.0 signals may include a Dolby Surround ﬂag indicating DS-ON or DS-OFF, depending on whether the two-channel bitstream contains only stereo information or a downmix of a multichannel program that can be decoded by the AVR’s Dolby Pro Logic decoder. By default, these signals are played in Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie mode.

When a PCM signal is received, the PCM message and the sampling rate (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz) will appear.

When only two channels – left and right – are present, the analog surround modes may be used to decode the signal into multiple channels. If you would prefer a different surround format than the native signal’s digital encoding, press the Surround Modes button to display the Surround Modes menu (see

The Auto Select option sets the surround mode to the native signal’s digital encoding, e.g., Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio. For two-channel materials, the AVR defaults to the Logic 7 Movie mode. If you prefer a different surround mode, select the surround-mode category: Virtual Surround, Stereo, Movie, Music or Video Game. Press the OK button to change the mode.

Each surround-mode category is set to a default surround mode:

Virtual Surround: HARMAN virtual speaker. •

Stereo: 7-CH Stereo or 5-CH Stereo (depending on how many main speakers are • present in the system).

Movie: Logic 7 Movie. •

Music: Logic 7 Music. •

Video Game: Logic 7 Game. •

You may select a different mode for each category. Below is a complete list of available surround modes. (The actual surround modes available will depend on the number of speakers in your system.)

Virtual Surround: HARMAN virtual speaker. •

Stereo: 2-CH Stereo, 5-CH Stereo or 7-CH Stereo. •

Movie: Logic 7 Movie, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic IIx • Movie, Dolby Pro Logic IIz.

Music: Logic 7 Music, DTS Neo:6 Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Music, Dolby Pro Logic IIx • Music, Dolby Pro Logic IIz.

Video Game: Logic 7 Game, Dolby Pro Logic II Game, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game, Dolby • Pro Logic IIz.

Once you have programmed the surround mode for each type of audio, select the line from the Surround Modes menu to override the AVR’s automatic surround-mode selection. The AVR will use the same surround mode the next time the source is selected.

NOTE: Dolby Pro Logic IIx is available only if you have set up the AVR’s Assigned Amp to Surround Back; Dolby Pro Logic IIz is available only if you have set up the AVR’s Assigned Amp to Front Height. See

Please refer to Table A12 in the Appendix for more information on which surround modes are available with different bitstreams.

Edit Dolby PLII/Dolby PLIIx Music: Some additional settings are available for the Dolby Pro Logic II modes. When the Dolby Pro Logic II or IIx Music modes have been selected, choose the “Edit Dolby PLII/IIx Music” submenus to adjust the Center Width, Dimension and Panorama settings.

Center Width: This setting affects how vocals sound through the three front speakers. A lower number focuses the vocal information tightly on the center channel. Higher numbers (up to 7) broaden the vocal soundstage. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust.

Dimension: This setting affects the depth of the surround presentation, allowing you to “move” the sound toward the front or rear of the room. The setting of “0” is a neutral default. Setting “F-3” moves the sound toward the front of the room, while setting “R-3” moves the sound toward the rear. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust it.

Panorama: With the Panorama mode turned on, some of the sound from the front speakers is moved to the surround speakers, creating an enveloping “wraparound” effect. Each press of the OK button toggles the setting On or Off.

Tone Control: This setting determines whether the treble and bass controls are active. When it’s set to Off, the tone controls are out of the circuit, with no changes to the sound. When it’s set to On, the bass and treble controls are in the circuit.

Video Processing

Your AVR uses leading-edge Faroudja DCDi Cinema™ video-processing technology. Incoming video signals may be upscaled up to 1080p for outstanding video quality, even with analog video sources. The Faroudja DCDi Cinema Dual 3D comb ﬁlters and 10-bit video processing eliminate the jagged edges and moiré patterns seen with less advanced

processing. The AVR’s “Torino” video-processing circuitry generates on-screen graphics in high deﬁnition and blends them with the incoming video so that you can continue to watch a program while using the AVR’s system menus.

The AVR’s video processor automatically provides the best picture based on the capabilities of your video display and the incoming source video. You may experiment with the Video Modes menu adjustments to try to improve the picture further.

Adjust your video display’s picture settings before adjusting the AVR’s Video Modes settings. Access the picture settings from the Video Modes menu. Press the Video Modes button, and the Video Modes screen will appear. You can also access the menu by pressing the Info button and selecting Video Modes.

NOTE: Each source has its own independent Video Modes settings.

Video Mode: The default setting of Off passes the video signal through to the display

with only basic video processing. (NOTE: Video scaling cannot be turned off, but selecting the HDMI Bypass mode in the Info menu for a source connected to one of the HDMI Input connectors passes the video signal directly from the HDMI input connector to the HDMI Monitor Out connector, bypassing all video processing.)

Select one of these processing options to optimize the picture for the current program by applying adjustments to the brightness, contrast, color and sharpness:

Sports: For sporting events. •

Nature: For programs shot outdoors, in a natural setting. •

Movie: For movies and many television broadcasts. •

Custom: Lets you adjust the picture settings manually. The Brightness, Contrast, Color • and Sharpness settings will appear as sliders with values ranging from 0 to 100. The default setting for each adjustment is 50. Use the Left/Right buttons to change each setting’s value. See

Plasma and CRT monitors may suffer from “burn-in” when the same image, such as the horizontal or vertical bars, is left on screen for a long period of time. Adjust the picture so that it ﬁlls the display’s screen. Highlight this setting and press the OK Button. Each press of the Up/Down buttons changes the setting. Press the OK button when the desired setting appears in the display box at the lower right corner of the video screen.

Auto Fit: The AVR automatically adjusts the image, as required, to ﬁt the display’s • capabilities.

Height Fit: Adjusts the image to eliminate any bars above or below it. Bars may remain • at the sides.

Width Fit: Adjusts the image to eliminate any bars on the sides. Bars may remain above • and below the image.

Zoom 1x: Displays the image as received from the source. If the image is in the 4:3 • aspect ratio, on widescreen displays the pillarbox format may be used. If the image is in the 16:9 aspect ratio, on full-screen (4:3) displays the letterbox format may be used.

Zoom 2x and Zoom 3x: Stretches the image evenly to ﬁll the screen completely. The • outer portions of the image may be cropped.

Experiment with this setting until you ﬁnd a pleasing display format for each program.

Overscan: For historical reasons, there has been a convention among video broadcasters to reserve an area around the border of a video frame, called “overscan,” that may be viewed on newer high-deﬁnition displays, although it was not visible on older analog television sets. However, since not all displays are capable of showing this portion of the frame, directors avoid placing important information in that area.

If your video display is capable of displaying the overscan area, set Overscan to On to prevent the display from showing a black border around the image, which could cause unwanted “burn-in” on some plasma and CRT displays. The AVR turns this setting off by default when the source device is connected to one of the HDMI input connectors.

Advanced Video Settings: Select this to display the Advanced Video Modes submenu. This submenu is not accessible when the Video Mode setting is set to Off.

Black Level: This setting is effective only when the AVR’s Composite Video Monitor Out connection is being used. Set the Black Level to On for a full black-level setting that provides the full dynamic range of black as presented on most DVDs. When set to Off, the Black Level setting complies with NTSC standards for video and may be more appropriate when your video display has limited video-processing capability.

Deinterlacing: Analog video in the NTSC format is interlaced. That is, each refresh of the television screen displays only half the pixels in a frame, alternating between all of the even rows of pixels and all of the odd rows. Modern video displays are capable of displaying the complete frame all at once by progressively scanning all of the rows of pixels from top to bottom. For optimal viewing on a progressive-scan display (e.g., most ﬂat-panel displays), the video images must be deinterlaced. When you are viewing images via the Composite Video Monitor Out connection, any time the AVR’s video output resolution is 480i, this setting may be turned off.

Film Mode Detect: This setting is accessible only when the Deinterlacing setting is turned on. It compensates for the different frame rates in which ﬁlm and video are shot. Film is shot at a rate of 24 frames per second (progressive scan), while video is shot at slightly less than 60 frames per second (interlaced). The AVR is able to detect whether the program was originally shot on ﬁlm and transferred to video (e.g., to create a DVD), and will compensate appropriately for any authoring errors in the conversion. Select a setting of 3:2 (for NTSC materials), 2:2 (for PAL materials), Off or Auto.

How to Adjust the Custom Picture Settings

Set the Video Mode to Custom to display the picture settings.

ENGLISH

Noise Reduction: Adjust this setting to Low, Medium or High to ﬁlter out signal noise.

MPEG Noise Reduction: This setting is designed to address two speciﬁc types of video

distortion: mosquito noise and blocking artifacts. If you see haziness or shimmering around the edges of objects or the scrolling credits in a ﬁlm, or if the image appears to “pixelate” into blocks, change the MPEG Noise Reduction setting from Off to Low, Medium or High.

Cross Color Suppressor: Turn this setting on to remove cross color artifacts, which can occur when high-frequency luminance (brightness) signals are misinterpreted as chrominance (color) signals, causing unwanted ﬂickering, ﬂashing colors or rainbow patterns. This setting is not available when you are using HDMI sources or when no video signal is present.

Flesh Tone Enhancement: Turn this setting on to enhance the ﬂesh tone of peoples’ skin. (On many TVs this enhancement will be subtle.)

With a color-bar test pattern from a test disc or other source on the TV screen, you can make the following adjustments:

The color intensity setting on your TV. •

Color adjustments using the color bars, which may be (left to right) black, white, yellow, • cyan (turquoise), green, magenta, red, blue, black.

The color transition, seen as sharp separation of the bars. •

The performance of the color circuits in your TV (with video signals); bar edges should • show no vertical crawling dots.

Use the gray scale and the black/white ﬁelds in the test pattern to adjust the brightness and contrast.

Brightness Adjustment

Turn down the color control on your TV until the color bars appear in black and white.1.

Adjust the Contrast to the lowest level where you still can see all gray-scale bars 2. separately and clearly.

Adjust the Brightness so that the bars in the gray scale are all visible. The bar farthest 3. to the left has to be as black as possible rather than gray, but the next gradation must clearly be distinct from it. The bars in the gray scale should gradually and evenly change from black to white.

Contrast Adjustment

Adjust the contrast on your TV until you see a bright white bar in the lower right corner 1. of the screen and a deep, dark, black bar to the left.

If the brightness of the white bar no longer increases when the Contrast is turned 2. up or the borders of white letters bloom (overlight) into the black areas (drastically decreasing the sharpness of the letters), the contrast has been turned up too much. Reduce the Contrast until these effects disappear and the video still looks realistic.

If you are watching TV with ambient daylight, adjust the contrast so that a normal 3. video picture looks the same as the surroundings in your room; that way the eye is relaxed when watching the TV picture. Reduce the setting when the surrounding light is dimmed to improve the sharpness of the picture.

The gray scale in the middle line should retain the same distinction between each 4. bar as before the contrast adjustment. If not, repeat both Step 3 of the Brightness Adjustment and the Contrast Adjustment.

Color Adjustment

When the brightness and contrast are set optimally, adjust the Color control. Set the 1. level so that the colors look strong but still natural, not overdone. If the color level is too high, depending on the TV, some of the bars will seem wider or the color intensity will not increase when the control is turned up. Test the color intensity with a video of pictures of faces, ﬂowers, fruit and vegetables.

Refer to a large white bar in your test pattern to tweak the warmth of the picture using 2. the Tint control on your TV.

Sharpness Adjustment

Contrary to intuition, the picture will appear sharper and clearer with the sharpness backed off from the maximum setting. Reduce the Sharpness setting on your television, and the setting on the AVR, if necessary, to minimize the appearance of any white lines between the bars in the gray-scale portion of the test screen.

Advanced Functions, Manual Speaker Setup

Manual Speaker Setup

Your AVR is ﬂexible and may be conﬁgured to work with most speakers and to compensate for the acoustic characteristics of your room.

The EzSet/EQ process automatically detects the capabilities of each connected speaker and optimizes the AVR’s performance with your speakers. If you are unable to run EzSet/ EQ calibration, or if you wish to set up your AVR for your speakers manually, use the Manual Speaker Setup on-screen menus.

Before beginning, place your loudspeakers as explained in the section, on page 13, and connect them to the AVR. Consult the owner’s guide for the speakers or the manufacturer’s Web site for their frequency-range speciﬁcation. Although you may set the AVR’s individual channel levels “by ear,” an SPL (sound-pressure level) meter purchased at a local electronics store will provide greater accuracy.

Record your conﬁguration settings in Tables A3 through A12 in the Appendix for easy re-entry after a system reset or after the AVR’s Master Power switch has been turned off or the unit has been unplugged for more than four weeks.

NOTE: When using the AVR’s Manual Speaker Setup menus, select a video output resolution of 720p or higher to view graphics that simplify conﬁguration.

Step One – Determine Your Speakers’ Crossover Frequencies

Without using the EzSet/EQ process, the AVR can’t detect how many speakers you’ve connected to it; nor can it determine their capabilities. Consult the technical speciﬁcations for all of your speakers and locate the frequency response, usually given as a range, e.g., 100Hz – 20kHz (±3dB). Write down the lowest frequency that each of your speakers is capable of playing (100Hz in the above example) as the crossover in Table A3 in the Appendix. NOTE: This is not the same as the crossover frequency listed in the speaker’s speciﬁcations.

For the subwoofer, write down the transducer size. The AVR’s bass management determines which speakers will be used to play back the low-frequency (bass) portion of the source program. Sending the lowest notes to small satellite speakers will result in bad sound and may even damage the speakers. The highest notes may not be heard at all through the subwoofer.

With proper bass management, the AVR divides the source signal at a crossover point. All information above that crossover point is played through your system’s speakers, and all information below the crossover point is played through the subwoofer. This way, each loudspeaker in your system will perform at its best, delivering a more powerful and enjoyable sound experience.

Step Two – Measure the Speaker Distances

Ideally, all of your speakers would be placed in a circle, with the listening position at the center. However, you may have had to place some speakers a little farther away from the listening position than others. Sounds that are supposed to arrive simultaneously from different speakers may blur, due to different arrival times.

Your AVR provides a Distance adjustment that compensates for these real-world speaker placement differences.

Measure the distance from each speaker to the listening position, and write it down in Table A4 in the Appendix. Even if all of your speakers are the same distance from the listening position, enter your speaker distances as described in

Distances

, on page 38.

Step Three – Manual Speaker Setup Menu

Now you are ready to program the receiver. Sit in your usual listening position, and make the room as quiet as possible.

With the receiver and video display turned on, press the Setup button to display the menu system. Select the Speaker Setup menu, and then select Manual Setup.

For best results, adjust the submenus in this order: Number of Speakers, Crossover (Size), Sub Mode, Distance and Level Adjust.

Number of Speakers

This selection lets you program the correct setting for each speaker group. The settings in this menu affect the remainder of the speaker setup process and the availability of various surround modes at any time.

Select ON when the speakers are present in the system; select OFF for positions where no speakers are installed. The Front Left & Right setting is always ON and may not be disabled.

Any changes will be reﬂected in the total Number Of Speakers displayed at the top of the screen.

The Assigned AMP setting includes four options:

Surround Back: • Select the Surr. Back option if your main system is a 7.1-channel system and you are using surround back left and surround back right speakers.

Zone 2: • Select the Zone 2 option if your main system is a 5.1-channel system and you want to use the Assigned Amp speaker outputs to power speakers in Zone 2. See

Install a Multizone System

, on page 21, for more information.

Front Height: • Select the Front Height option if your main system is a 7.1-channel system and you are using Front Height speakers with Dolby Pro Logic IIz.

Off: • Select Off if you have not connected speakers to the Assigned Amp speaker outputs.

NOTE: When you set Assigned AMP to “Zone 2,” the speakers connected to the Assigned Amp outputs will not be conﬁgured during the EzSet/EQ process. Conﬁgure the speakers manually, as explained below.

When you have ﬁnished, select the Back option or use the Back/Exit button.

Crossover (Size)

After you return to the Manual Speaker Setup menu, navigate to the Crossover (Size) line and press the OK button to display the Adjust Crossover Frequencies menu.

The AVR will display only those speaker groups you set to On in the Number of Speakers menu.

Refer to Table A3 for each speaker’s crossover frequency.

For each speaker group, select one of these eight crossover frequencies: Large, 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, 150Hz or 200Hz. If the speaker’s crossover frequency is below 40Hz, select the ﬁrst option, “Large.” This setting doesn’t refer to the speaker’s physical size but to its frequency response, which is also called “full range.”

Specify the size of the subwoofer’s transducer as 8, 10, 12 or 15 inches. The AVR always sets the subwoofer crossover to 100Hz but uses the transducer size for equalization.

Write down the settings in Table A6 in the Appendix.

When you have ﬁnished entering the settings, select Back or press the Back/Exit button.

Sub Mode

Move the cursor to the Sub Mode line. This setting depends upon the Crossover setting you selected for the front left and right speakers.

If you set the front speakers to a numeric crossover frequency, the subwoofer setting • will always be SUB. All low-frequency information will always be sent to the subwoofer. If you don’t have a subwoofer, either upgrade to full-range front left and right speakers or add a subwoofer at the earliest opportunity.

If you set the front speakers to LARGE, select one of the three following settings for • the subwoofer:

L/R+LFE: This setting sends all low-frequency information to the subwoofer, including a) information that would normally be played through the front left and right speakers and b) the special low-frequency effects (LFE) channel information.

OFF: Select this setting when no subwoofer is in use. All low-frequency information will be sent to the front left and right speakers.

LFE: This setting plays low-frequency information contained in the left and right program channels through the front left and right speakers, and directs only the LFE-channel information to the subwoofer.

Set the Speaker Distances

As described above in Step Two, when you measured the distances from each of your speakers to the listening position, your AVR provides an adjustment that compensates for the different distances so that the sound from each speaker will reach the listening position at the proper time. This process will improve the clarity and detail of the sound.

On the Manual Speaker Setup menu, move the cursor to the Distance line and press the OK button to display the Adjust Speaker Distance menu.

Enter the distance from each speaker to the listening position that you measured in Step Two and recorded in Table A4 in the Appendix (see page 46). Select a speaker, then use the Left/Right buttons to change the measurement. You can enter distances between 0 and 30 feet (9.1m). The default distance for all speakers is 10 feet (3m).

The default unit of measurement is feet. To change the unit to meters, return to the main AVR menu. Select the System Settings menu, then scroll down to the General Setup section and select the Unit of Measure line. Press the OK button to change the setting.

NOTE: If you set the Assigned AMP channels to Zone 2, you will not be able to adjust their delay settings.

Step Four – Setting Channel Output Levels Manually

For a conventional stereo receiver, a simple balance control adjusts the stereo imaging by varying the relative loudness of the left and right channels. In a home theater system with up to seven main channels plus a subwoofer, achieving proper imaging becomes both more critical and more complex. The goal is to ensure that each channel is heard at the listening position with equal loudness (when signals of equal loudness are played through them).

Your AVR’s EzSet/EQ calibration can handle this critical task for you simply and automatically. However, the AVR’s Adjust Speaker Levels menu allows you to calibrate the levels manually, either using the system’s built-in test tone or while playing source material.

Press the Setup button to display the menu system, and then navigate to the Speaker Setup line. Press the OK button to display the Speaker Setup menu. Select Manual Setup, press the OK button, and then navigate to the Level Adjust line. Press the OK button to display the Adjust Speaker Levels menu.

Manual Speaker Setup

All of the system’s speakers will appear with their current level settings. You can adjust each speaker’s level between –10dB and +10dB in 1dB increments.

While making adjustments, you can measure the channel levels in one of these ways:

Preferably, use a handheld SPL meter set to the C-weighting, slow scale. Adjust each • speaker so that the meter reads 75dB when the AVR’s built-in test noise is playing.

By ear. Adjust the levels so that the test tone sounds equally loud to you when it plays • through each speaker.

To set your levels using the AVR’s internal test tone, select the menu’s Test Tone line and use the OK button to select between Auto and Manual:

Auto: The test tone will automatically circulate to all speakers, as indicated by the highlight bar. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the level for any speaker when the test tone is paused there. Use the Up/Down buttons to move the cursor to another line, and the test tone will follow the cursor. To stop the test tone, use the Up/Down buttons to move the cursor out of the screen’s speaker listings area.

Manual: The test tone will stay on the current speaker until you use the Up/Down buttons to move it to another speaker. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the level for the speaker through which the test tone is playing.

If you are using an external source to set your output levels, set Test Tone to Off, use the Up/Down buttons to navigate to each speaker, and use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the speaker’s level while the source plays. NOTE: If you are using a handheld SPL meter with external source material, such as a test disc or an audio selection, play it and adjust the AVR’s master volume control until the meter measures 75dB. Then adjust the individual speaker levels.

Reset Levels: To reset all levels to their factory defaults of 0dB, scroll down to this line at the bottom of the menu and press the OK button.

When you have ﬁnished adjusting the speaker levels, record the settings in Table A3 in the Appendix. Then select the Back option or press the Back/Exit Button.

Notes on Setting Speaker Volumes in Home Theater Systems:

While setting your system’s individual speaker volume levels is ultimately up to your personal taste, here are some ideas you may ﬁnd helpful:

For ﬁlms and video-music programs, your overall goal should be to create an • enveloping, realistic sound ﬁeld that draws you into the ﬁlm or music program without drawing your attention away from the action on the screen.

For multichannel music recordings, some music producers will create a sound ﬁeld • that places the musicians all around you; others will create a sound ﬁeld that places the musicians in front of you, with more subtle ambience in the surround speakers (as you would experience in a concert hall).

In most 5.1-channel and 7.1-channel ﬁlm soundtracks, the surround speakers are • not intended to be as loud or as active as the front speakers. Adjusting the surround speakers so they are always as loud as the front speakers could make dialogue difﬁcult to understand and will make some sound effects sound unrealistically loud.

Notes on Setting Subwoofer Volume:

Sometimes the ideal subwoofer volume setting for music is too loud for ﬁlms, while the • ideal setting for ﬁlms is too quiet for music. When setting the subwoofer volume, listen to both music and ﬁlms with strong bass content and ﬁnd a “middle ground” volume level that works for both.

If your subwoofer always seems too loud or too quiet, you may want to place it in a • different location. Placing the subwoofer in a corner will always tend to increase its bass output, while placing it away from any walls or corners will always tend to lessen its bass output.

HDMI Settings

HDMI Audio to TV: This setting determines whether HDMI audio signals are passed

through the HDMI Monitor Out connector to the video display. In normal operation, leave this setting at Off, as audio will be played through the AVR. To use the TV by itself, without the home theater system, turn this setting to On. In this case you will need to mute the TV’s speakers (or switch the setting to Off) when using the AVR for audio.

HDMI Control: This setting allows the communication of control information among the HDMI devices in your system. Turn this setting to On to allow control communication between the HDMI devices; turn the setting to Off to forbid control communication.

Audio Return Channel: Selecting “Auto” will send audio from the TV to the AVR via the HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC) connection (which is in the HDMI cable connecting the AVR to the TV). The TV source’s “Audio Input from Source” will be automatically reassigned to the HDMI ARC connector. This way, whenever you’re watching a source that is connected directly to your TV (such as an Internet connection), you can listen to the sound through the AVR.

Power Control: This setting links the power on/off functions of the AVR to those of a TV connected to its HDMI Monitor Out connector. When Power Control is set to On, turning the TV’s power off will automatically put the AVR into the Standby mode; turning the TV’s power on will automatically turn the AVR on.

Advanced Remote Control Programming

Remote Channel-Control Punch-Through

The punch-through feature allows you to operate one component while setting certain groups of controls to operate another component. For example, while using the AVR controls for surround modes and other audio functions, you may also use the remote to operate the transport controls of your Blu-ray Disc player. Or while using the remote to control video functions on your TV, you may also use the remote to change channels on your cable box.

To program punch-through control while operating any device:

For three seconds press and hold the Source Selector button for the main device the 1. remote will be operating. The Source Selector will light up, go dark and then light up again, indicating the remote is in Program mode and that you may release the button.

Select the type of punch-through programming.2.

For channel-control punch-through, press the Channel Up button.a)

To program transport-control punch-through, press the Play transport-control b) button.

Press the Source Selector button for the device whose channel or transport controls 3. you will use while operating the device selected in the ﬁrst step. The Source Selector button will ﬂash to conﬁrm.

For example, to watch the TV while changing channels using the cable box, press and hold the TV button until it lights. Then press the Channel Up button, followed by the Cable/ SAT button.

To undo punch-through programming, follow the same steps as above, but press the same Source Selector button in Steps 1 and 3.

NOTE: The Volume and Mute controls are always dedicated to the AVR.

Programming Macro (Activity) Commands

In addition to their normal functions, you can also use the 0 – 9 Number buttons and AVR Power On button to store Macro (Activity) commands – up to 11 of them. Each Macro can send out up to 19 commands at one time from a single button push. Any AVR remote control button’s function from any mode (except the Back/Exit button, the Light button, and the Activity button) can be programmed into a Macro.

NOTE: Use caution when programming complicated Macros. It isn’t possible to program a pause or delay before sending additional commands after a “Power On” command, and the component may not be ready to respond to commands immediately after powering on.

To program a Macro:

To enter the Programming mode, simultaneously press and hold the Activity button and 1. the Number button or AVR Power On button to which you want to assign the Macro.

Press in up to 19 commands that you want stored in that Macro button. During each 2. successive button selection, the Source Selector button LED will blink once. Press the Source Selector button for each device (or Setup button for the AVR itself) before you enter individual commands. This step counts as one of the 19 commands allowed for each Macro.

You can select functions from another mode by ﬁrst pressing the corresponding Source • Selector button and then the buttons where those functions are located within that mode. Pressing a Source Selector button also counts as one command.

For power on, press the AVR or Device Power On button. •

For power off, press the AVR or Device Power Off button. •

Press the Activity button to end the programming process. The last Source Selector 3. button (or the Setup button) will ﬂash three times.

It isn’t possible to “edit” a command within a Macro. To erase the Macro:

Press and hold the Activity Button and the button into which you programmed the 1. Macro until the Source Selector or Setup button lights up.

Press the Activity button to erase the Macro.2.

Advanced Remote Control Programming

To execute a Macro:

Press the Activity button, then press the button into which you programmed the Macro.

IMPORTANT: Keep the remote aimed at the components until all of the Macro commands have been executed. The remote can take up to 10 seconds to send out 19 Macro commands.

Recording

Two-channel analog and digital audio signals, as well as composite video signals, are normally available at the appropriate recording outputs. To make a recording, connect your audio or video recorder to the appropriate AVR output connectors as described in the Making Connections section, insert blank media in the recorder and make sure the recorder is turned on and recording while the source is playing. Refer to the recording device’s instructions for complete information about making recordings.

NOTES:

The AVR does not convert analog signals to digital or vice versa.1.

HDMI and component video sources are not available for recording.2.

Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright restrictions on any material 3. you record. Unauthorized duplication of copyrighted materials is prohibited by law.

Sleep Timer

The sleep timer sets the AVR to play for up to 90 minutes and then turn off automatically.

Press the Sleep button on the remote, and the time until turn-off will be displayed. Each additional press of the Sleep button increases the play time by 10 minutes, with a maximum of 90 minutes. The SLEEP OFF setting disables the sleep timer.

When the sleep timer has been set, the front-panel display will automatically dim to half brightness.

If you press the Sleep button after the timer has been set, the remaining play time will be displayed. Press the Sleep button again to change the play time.

DTS Digital Using a different encoding/decoding method than Dolby Digital,

DTS Digital also provides up to ﬁve discrete main channels, plus an LFE channel.

DTS-HD DTS-HD is a new high-deﬁnition audio format that complements the high-

deﬁnition video found on Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD discs. It is transmitted using a DTS core with high-resolution extensions. Even when only DTS 5.1 surround sound is desired (or available, if the multizone system is in use), the higher capacity of high-resolution discs serves up DTS at twice the bit rate used on DVD-Video discs.

DTS-HD Master Audio DTS-HD Master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions of the studio

master recording in up to 7.1 channels for an incredibly accurate performance.

DTS-ES Matrix DTS Extended Surround adds a single surround back channel to DTS 5.1

digital surround sound. The Matrix version includes the surround back channel information “matrixed” into the left and right (side) surround channels for compatibility with 5.1-channel systems.

DTS-ES Discrete DTS-ES Discrete is another Extended Surround mode that adds a surround back

channel, but this information is encoded discretely on the disc and is not derived from information contained in the surround channels.

DTS Stereo Delivers a two-channel downmix of DTS Digital materials or presents a matrix-

encoded surround presentation.

DTS Neo:6 analog processing is available with DTS and DTS 96/24 signals and two-channel analog or PCM signals to create a 3-, 5- or 6-channel presentation.

Depending on the number of speakers in your system, select 3-, 5- or 6-channel modes, enhanced for movie or video presentations.

Available only in 5- and 6-channel modes, creates a surround presentation suitable for music recordings.

A HARMAN proprietary technology, Logic 7 technology enhances two-channel and matrix-encoded recordings by deriving separate information for the surround back channels. It provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning and expands the sound ﬁeld, even when used with 5.1-channel systems. Logic 7 technology uses 96kHz processing and is available in 5.1-or 7.1-channel modes. Three variants are available.

Especially suited to two-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix encoding, Logic 7 Movie mode increases center-channel intelligibility. The AVR is programmed at the factory to default to this mode for two-channel signals.

Logic 7 Music mode is well suited to conventional two-channel music recordings. Analog (two-channel) •
