Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called

Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field effect transistors and

semiconductor "chip" components.

The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.

1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on

your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device,

which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.

2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to

prevent electrostatic charge build-up or exposure of the assembly.

3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices.

4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static" can generate electrical charges

sufficient to damage ES devices.

5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical change sufficient to damage ES devices.

6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement

ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive material.)

7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the

chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.

CAUTION :

8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together

or your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES devices.

Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.

Each precaution in this manual should be followed during servicing.

Components identified with the IEC symbol in the parts list are special significance to safety. When replacing a component identified with

, use only the replacement parts designated, or parts with the same ratings or resistance, wattage, or voltage that are designated in the

parts list in this manual. Leakage-current or resistance measurements must be made to determine that exposed parts are acceptably

insulated from the supply circuit before retuming the product to the customer.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

The AVR 700 has been designed for use with 120-volt alternating current (AC). The AVR 70 and AVR 70C have been designed for use with 220 – 240-volt AC. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which your AVR 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 AVR 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 700)

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.

Place the AVR

• Place the AVR on a rm and level surface. Be certain that the surface and any

mounting hardware can support the AVR’s weight.

• Provide proper space above and below the AVR for ventilation. Recommended

clearance distances are 30cm above the unit, 10cm behind the unit and 20cm on each side of the unit.

• If you install the AVR in a cabinet or other enclosed area, provide cooling air within the

cabinet. Under some circumstances, a fan may be required.

• Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of the AVR or place objects directly

over them.

• Do not place the AVR directly on a carpeted surface.

• Do not place the AVR in moist or humid locations, in extremely hot or cold locations,

in areas near heaters or heat registers, or in direct sunlight.

Introduction to Home Theater

and Place Your Speakers

Introduction to Home Theater

This introductory section will help you to familiarize yourself with some basic concepts unique to multichannel surround-sound AVRs, 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 (AVR), which controls the system and supplies ampliﬁcation for the loudspeakers; a disc player; a source component for television broadcasts (cable box, satellite dish AVR, 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 can have up to ﬁve 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 2-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 that occurs on the screen, 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 more 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.

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 the individual channel information 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 Pro Logic II, Dolby Pro Logic.

• DTS: DTS-HD DTS Neo: 6.

• HARMAN International: Analog Surround Modes (Theater Hall, Stadium, Club, Arena).

• Stereo Modes: 2-channel stereo and 5-channel stereo.

Appendix Table A4, on page 22, contains detailed explanations of the different surroundsound options available on your AVR. Digital surround-sound modes, such as Dolby Digital and DTS systems, are available only with 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 programs 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 illustration below as a guide for

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 diagram below as a guide.

FL FR

SL SR

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 front right positions.

Placing the Surround Speakers

You should place the left and right surround speakers approximately 110 degrees from the center speaker, slightly behind and angled toward the listener. Alternatively, you can 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.

NOTE: Your AVR 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.

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. Each cable contains 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 AVR, 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:

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 (not included) 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, MP3 player or a device docked in the AVR’s USB port. The AVR’s FM/AM tuner also counts as a source, even though no external connectors are needed other than the AVR’s FM and AM antennas. Separate connectors are required for the audio and video portions of the source device’s signal, except for digital HDMI connectors. The types of connectors 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 connectors: HDMI, coaxial and optical. Do not use more than one type of digital audio connector 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 four rear-panel HDMI input connectors and one HDMI monitor output 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 connector 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 Additional Setup Menu Items, on page 15, 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.

A. Tighten Cap B. Insert Banana Connector

into Hole in Cap

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 AVR or ampliﬁer.

Digital Audio Connections – Coaxial

Coaxial digital audio jacks are usually color-coded 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 color-coded using a black 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.

For source devices that have both digital and analog audio outputs, you may make both connections.

The analog connections also feed the Analog Record Output connectors. 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.

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

Composite video is the basic connection most commonly available. Both the chrominance (color) and the 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.

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.

USB Port

The AVR can play MP3 and WMA audio ﬁles from a USB device inserted into the USB port. Insert the device into the USB port 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.

AVR 700/AVR 70/AVR 70C

Making Connections

CAUTION: Before making any connections to the AVR, ensure that the AVR’s AC power cord is unplugged from the AVR and the AC outlet. Making connections with the AVR plugged in and turned on could damage the speakers.

Connect Your Speakers

After you have placed your loudspeakers in the room as explained in Place Your Speakers, on page 8, connect each speaker to its color-coded terminal on the AVR as explained in Speaker Connections, on page 9. Connect the speakers as shown in the illustration.

Connect Your TV or Video Display

HDMI Monitor Out connector

If your TV has an HDMI connector and you have HDMI or component video source devices, use an HDMI cable (not included) to connect your TV to the AVR’s HDMI Monitor Out connector. It will provide the best possible picture quality.

Connect Your Source Devices

Source devices are components where a playback signal originates, such as a Blu-ray Disc or DVD player, or a cable, satellite or HDTV tuner. Your AVR has several different types of input connectors for your audio and video source devices: HDMI, composite video, optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio and analog audio.

Each of your AVR’s source buttons is assigned to an HDMI connector or an analog audio input connector (listed in the “AVR Source Button/Analog Audio Connector” column of the table below).The digital inputs are not assigned to any speciﬁc sets of analog inputs. Once you select a source device you can use the remote control’s Audio Input Select (DIGITAL) button to select the speciﬁc audio input connection (HDMI, coaxial digital, optical digital, analog) that you want to listen to. (Note: You cannot select an audio input connection for the FM/AM or USB source buttons.)

As you connect your various source components, ﬁll out the “Source Device Connected” and “Digital Audio Input Connector Used” columns in the following table – it will make it easy to keep track of which devices you have connected to which connectors. Note: The AVR remote is pre-programmed to control a Harman/Kardon Blu-ray Disc or DVD player connected to HDMI 1.

HDMI devices

If any of your source devices have HDMI connectors, using those connectors will provide the best possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable carries both digital video and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio connections for devices you connect via HDMI cables.

• The AVR remote control is pre-programmed to control a Harman/Kardon Blu-ray Disc

or DVD player when the HDMI 1 Source Selector button is pressed.

If you have a TV equipped with the HDMI Audio Return Channel function, its sound is fed to the AVR via the HDMI Out connector’s Audio Return Channel, and it will not require additional audio connections to the AVR.

Configure the AVR for Your Speakers

1. Turn on your TV and select the TV’s composite video input where you connected the AVR in Connect Your TV or Video Display, on page 11.

2. Press the remote control’s SETUP button. The AVR’s on-screen display (OSD) System Setup menu will appear on the TV.

3. Use the remote’s arrow and OK buttons to select “Speaker Setup.” The Speaker Setup menu will appear.

4. Select “Speaker Settings.” The Speaker Settings menu will appear.

Using the On-Screen Menu System

Although it’s possible to conﬁgure the AVR using only the remote and the front-panel Message display, it is easier to use the on-screen menu system.

To access the menu system, turn on your TV and select the TV’s composite video input where you connected the AVR in Connect Your TV or Video Display, on page 11.

Press the remote control’s SETUP button. The AVR’s on-screen display (OSD) System Setup menu will appear on the TV.

The System Setup menu consists of ﬁve submenus: Speaker Set, HDMI Set, Parameter, Auto Power Control and Speaker On/Off.

Use the Up/Down/Left/Right buttons on the remote to navigate the menu system, and press the OK button to select a menu or setting line, or to enter a new setting.

The current menu, setting line or setting will appear in the front-panel Message display, as well as on screen.

To return to the previous menu, press the remote’s BACK button. To exit the menu system, press the SETUP button.

Follow the instructions in this Set Up the AVR section to conﬁgure your home theater system. You may return to these menus at any time to make additional adjustments.

Before you begin initial setup, all loudspeakers, a video display and all source devices should be connected to the AVR. You should be able to turn on the AVR and view the System Setup menu when you press the SETUP button. If necessary, reread the Making Connections section and the beginning of this section before continuing.

5. Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons to select OFF, SMALL or LARGE for the Front, Center and Surround speaker positions, depending on the speakers you have connected to the receiver.

OFF: Select this setting if you have not connected a speaker in that position (not available for the Front speakers).

SMALL: Select this setting if the speaker is not capable of producing clean, deep bass energy at output levels that match those produced by a powered subwoofer. All bass below the crossover frequency (see Step 6, below) in that channel is removed from that speaker and is sent to the subwoofer (or to the Front speakers if Subwoofer is set to NO). Most speakers (unless they are large and powerful) should be considered SMALL.

LARGE: Select this setting if the speaker is capable of producing clean, deep bass energy at output levels that match those produced by a powered subwoofer. All bass in that channel is sent to that speaker.

NOTE: If your system has a subwoofer and you set the Front speakers to LARGE, the subwoofer may not output audio except for Dolby Digital- and DTS-encoded program material that contains LFE channel information. If you set your Front speakers to LARGE and you want your subwoofer to reproduce bass from all program material, set the Subwoofer to PLUS (see below).

For Subwoofer, select YES (if your system has a subwoofer), NO (if your system does not have a subwoofer), or PLUS (if your system has a subwoofer, you set your Front speakers to LARGE and you want your subwoofer to reproduce bass from all program material).

When you’re ﬁnished, record your settings in Table A2 of the Appendix, on page 21, then press the remote control’s BACK button to return to the Speaker Setting menu.

6. (Note: If your system does not have a subwoofer, skip to step 7.) Press the BACK button and select “Crossover.” The Crossover menu will appear

AVR 700/AVR 70/AVR 70C

Set Up the AVR, continued

Consult the technical speciﬁcations for your system’s main left and right speakers and locate the frequency response, usually given as a range, e.g., 80Hz – 20kHz (±3dB). Note the lowest frequency that the speakers are capable of playing (80Hz in the above example). NOTE: This frequency is not the same as the crossover frequency that may also be listed in the speciﬁcations.

Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons to select the crossover frequency that most closely matches the low frequency speciﬁcation that you noted above. The AVR will divide the source signal at this crossover point, will send all information above the crossover point to your system’s speakers, and all information below the crossover point to the subwoofer. This way, each loudspeaker in your system will perform at its best, delivering a more powerful and enjoyable sound experience. Record the setting in Table A2 of the Appendix, on page 21.

7. Press the BACK button and select “Speaker Distance.” The Speaker Distance menu will appear.

8. Measure the distance from each speaker in your system to the listening position. Record the distances in Table A3 of the Appendix, on page 21.

9. Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons to change the distance setting for each speaker so it matches the distance you wrote down in step 8. When you’re ﬁnished, press the remote control’s BACK button to return to the Speaker Setting menu.

10. Select “Channel Level.” The Channel Level menu will appear. Use the remote’s left

and right arrow buttons to set Test Tone to “Manual” and press the remote’s OK button. After the on-screen countdown you will hear test noise through the front left speaker.

11. Sit in the main listening position and adjust the AVR’s volume control so the test noise

is moderately loud. Note the volume of the test noise through the ﬁrst speaker. Press the remote’s down arrow button to advance the test noise to each of your system’s speakers and note the volume level of the noise in each speaker.

12. As you advance the test noise through the speakers, use the remote’s left and right

arrow buttons to adjust the volumes of the channels until all of them play at the same volume.

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 lms 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 eld

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 lm 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 lms, 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.

13. When you’re ﬁnished, record the settings in Table A3 of the Appendix, on page 21, then press the remote’s SETUP button to turn off the on-screen menus.

Additional Setup Menu Items

You can also adjust the following settings:

HDMI Set: Selecting ARC/CEC On 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). 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 by selecting TV as the AVR source device. Selecting On also allows the communication of control information among the HDMI devices in your system (CEC).

Audio Settings: Selecting Audio Settings allows you to adjust the following audio settings:

• Night Mode works with specially encoded Dolby

compressing the audio so that louder passages are reduced in volume to avoid disturbing others, while dialogue remains intelligible. Press the left/right arrow buttons to advance through the following DRC (Dynamic Range Control) settings:

Off: No compression is applied. Loud passages in the program remain as they were recorded.

Mid: Loud passages in the program are reduced moderately in volume.

Max: Loud passages in the program are reduced more in volume.

Auto: Automatically compresses the audio a speciﬁc amount in response to instructions encoded in the Dolby Digital program.

• PLII Music: Additional adjustments are avalable that allow you to ne-tune the Dolby

Pro Logic II Music surround mode’s performance for your listening room and personal taste:

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 left or right arrow buttons toggles the setting On or Off.

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 arrow buttons to adjust this setting.

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. “+” settings move the sound toward the front of the room, while “–” settings move the sound toward the rear. Use the left/right arrow buttons to adjust it.

See Audio Processing and Surround Sound, on page 17, for more information about Dolby Pro Logic II.

Auto Power Control: This setting allows you to set the AVR to automatically enter the Standby mode after a period of inactivity, saving energy. The available settings are Off (default), 2 hours, 4 hours and 6 hours.

Speaker On/Off: Use this setting to turn the speakers off when you are listening through headphones.

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.

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 frontpanel display as a reminder. To restore the sound, press the Mute button again, or adjust the volume.

Listening Through Headphones

Plug the 1/4-inch stereo plug on a pair of headphones into the front-panel Phones jack for private listening. Note: For information about turning off the speakers during headphone listening, see Additional Setup Menu Items – Speaker On/Off, on page 15.

Selecting a Source

There are two different ways to select a source:

• Press the front-panel Source Select buttons.

• Directly select any source by pressing its Source Selector button on the remote.

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

The digital audio inputs are not assigned to any speciﬁc sets of analog inputs. Once you select a source device you can use the remote control’s Audio Input Select (DIGITAL) button to select the speciﬁc audio input connection (HDMI, coaxial digital, optical digital, analog) that you want to listen to. (Note: You cannot select an audio input connection for the FM/AM or USB source buttons.)

The source name, the selected audio input and the surround mode will appear on the front panel.

In the FM Stereo mode, the radio uses automatic tuning, meaning each press of the Tuning Up/Down buttons scans until a station with acceptable signal strength is found. In the FM Mono mode, the radio uses manual tuning, in which each press of a Tuning button steps through a single frequency increment. (Using the FM Mono mode may improve the reception of weaker stations.)

Preset Stations

A total of 30 stations (AM and FM combined) may be stored as presets. When the desired station has been tuned in, press the Memory button and the preset number will ﬂash on the front-panel Message display. Use the remote’s Number buttons to enter the desired preset number.

To tune a preset station, press the Preset Up/Down buttons or enter the preset number using the remote’s Number buttons.

Listening to Media on a USB Device

Your AVR is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 media in the FAT 16 or FAT 32 ﬁle format and is compatible with the following MP3 and WMA media:

• MP3: Bit rates between 96 – 320kbps. Fixed bit-rates at 44.1kHz sampling is

recommended. Variable bit-rates (VBR) are playable, but playing time may be displayed incorrectly. Files must have a “.mp3” ﬁle extension.

• WMA: Bit rates of 64kbps or higher. NOTE: Bit rates of 80kbps and 256kbps are not

compatible. Files must have a “.wma” ﬁle extension.

A maximum number of 65,536 folders and ﬁles can be supported.

Playing ﬁles on a USB device

1. Insert the USB drive into the AVR’s front-panel USB port. IMPORTANT: Do not connect a personal computer or peripheral to the USB port. USB hubs are not supported.

2. Select USB as the source device. “USB” will appear on the front-panel display, and after the AVR loads the contents of the current folder the USB playback screen will appear on the OSD.

• Check the source selection.

• Check all connections for a loose or incorrect connection.

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

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.

and Advanced Functions

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 certain sources or program types. You can ﬁnd more detailed information on surround modes in Audio Processing and Surround Sound, below.

To select a surround mode, press the Surround Mode Select buttons. Each press advances to the next available surround mode.

Digital surround-sound modes, such as Dolby Digital and DTS systems, are available only with specially encoded programs, such as those available via HDTV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc media and digital cable or satellite television. Other surround modes such as Dolby Pro Logic II may be used with digital or 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 programs you are watching or listening to, and your personal tastes.

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 affect not only the quality of the sound but also 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 several options for analog playback:

• Stereo: When you want conventional 2-channel playback, press the STEREO button.

Sound will be output from the front left and right speakers.

• 5-Ch Stereo: When you want to hear stereo sound through all of the system’s speakers

(such as during a party), select 5CH STEREO via the Surround Mode Select buttons. This plays the left-channel signal through the front left and surround left speakers, the right-channel signal through the front right and surround right speakers, and a summed mono signal through the center speaker.

• Analog Surround Modes: Your AVR is able to process 2-channel audio signals to

produce multi-channel surround sound, even when no surround sound has been encoded in the recording. Among the available modes are Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS Neo: 6, Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club and Arena modes. Use the Surround Mode Select buttons to select one of these modes. See Table A5 in the Appendix, on page 25, for breif explanations of each of these surround modes.

Digital Audio Signals

Digital audio signals offer greater ﬂexibility and capacity than analog signals and allow the encoding of up to 5.1 channels of discrete channel information directly into the signal. The result is improved sound quality and startling directionality, since each channel’s information is transmitted independently of the other channels. High-resolution recordings sound extraordinarily distortion-free, especially in the high frequencies.

Digital surround-sound 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), DTSHD High-Resolution Audio (7.1), DTS-HD Master Audio (7.1), DTS 5.1, DTS 96/24 (5.1), 2-channel PCM modes in 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.1kHz, 96kHz or 176.4kHz, and 5.1 or

7.1 multichannel PCM. (Your AVR will downmix the discrete surround back-channel information in 6.1-channel and 7.1-channel recordings into your system’s surround left and surround right channels.)

Surround Mode Selection

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, the table below indicates which surround modes are available for a given input.

Input Signal Format Available Surround Modes

Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital (7.1-channel/5.1-channel)

Dolby Digital (2.0-channel) Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music,

DTS HD Master Audio, DTS, DTS 96/24

PCM (2-channel), Analog (2-channel)

MP3/WMA Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Music,

When in doubt, check the broadcast or the jacket of your disc for more information on which surround modes are available. Usually, nonessential sections of a disc, such as trailers, extra materials or the disc menu, are available only in Dolby Digital 2.0 (2-channel) or PCM 2-channel mode. Look for an audio setup section in the disc’s menu. Also, make sure your disc player’s audio output is set to the original bitstream rather than 2-channel PCM. Stop play and check the player’s output setting.

Dolby Pro Logic II Game, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS Neo:6 Music, Theater, Hall, Stadium, Club, Arena, 5-Ch Stereo

Adjusting the Channel Volumes

In addition to using the AVR’s built-in test noise to conﬁgure the AVR for your speakers as explained in Conﬁgure the AVR for Your Speakers, you can also adjust the volume of any channel at any time to compensate for individual program sources or your personal taste.

1. Press the remote’s Channel Level button. The Message Display will show the left channel volume level.

2. Use the remote’s up and down arrow buttons to display the channel you want to adjust.

3. Use the remote’s left and right arrow buttons to adjust the channel’s volume.

Press the BACK button when you’re ﬁnished.

Recording

Two-channel analog audio signals, as well as composite video signals, are normally available at the appropriate recording output connectors. 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:

1. The AVR does not convert digital signals to analog. Only devices connected to the analog audio and composite video input connections can be recorded.

2. HDMI video sources are not available for recording.

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

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.

Processor Reset

If the AVR behaves erratically after a power surge, ﬁrst turn off the front-panel Main Power switch and unplug the AC power cord for at least 3 minutes. Plug the cord back in and turn the AVR on. If this procedure doesn’t help, reset the AVR’s processor as described below.

NOTE: Resetting the processor will erase all user conﬁgurations, including speaker and level settings, and tuner presets. After a reset, reenter all of these settings from your notes in the Appendix worksheets.

To reset the AVR’s processor:

1. Press the front-panel Standby/On switch to place the unit in the Standby mode (the Standby Indicator LED will turn amber).

2. Press and hold the front-panel Standby and Memory/Folder buttons until the RESET message appears on the front-panel Message display.

3. Press the Memory/Folder button again to reset the AVR’s processor.

If the AVR does not function correctly after a processor reset, contact an authorized Harman Kardon service center for assistance. To locate an authorized service center, visit our Web site at www.harmankardon.com.

Memory

If the AVR is unplugged or experiences a power outage, it will retain your user settings for up to two weeks.
