Connections

Connecting the AV Controller

Connecting Your Speakers

The AV controller is designed to be used with a separate multichannel power amplifier. You connect the AV controller’s PRE OUT jacks to the amplifier’s inputs, and connect your speakers to the amplifier’s speakers terminals. Speaker settings such as crossover frequency and distance are set on the AV controller.

Connecting a Power Amplifier via RCA Jacks

You can connect the AV controller to a multichannel power amplifier via RCA jacks by using a multichannel RCA audio cable or several stereo RCA audio cables.

See your multichannel power amplifier’s instruction manual for more information on connecting speakers.

Using Powered Subwoofers

■ Connection via RCA Jacks

You can connect the powered subwoofers to SW1 PRE OUT and SW2 PRE OUT respectively.

The level and distance can be set individually for each output. If you’re using only one subwoofer, connect it to SW1 PRE

OUT.

LINE INPUT

Powered subwoofers

■ Connection visa XLR Jacks

You can also connect the powered subwoofers to

SUBWOOFER 1 PRE OUT and SUBWOOFER 2 PRE OUT respectively, by using balanced XLR cables.

The level and distance can be set individually for each output. If you’re using only one subwoofer, connect it to SUBWOOFER 1 PRE OUT.

To find the best position for your subwoofers while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofers at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.

Tip

• If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

Important:

• When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals.

• Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.

Bi-amping provides improved bass and treble performance. When bi-amping is used, the AV controller is able to drive up to a 7.2 speaker system in the main room. Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections as shown and turned on the AV controller, you must set the speaker

setting to enable bi-amping (➔ page 52). See your multichannel power amplifier’s instruction manual for more information on connecting speakers.

Note

Do not connect the AV controller’s USB port to a USB port on your computer. Music on your computer cannot be played through the AV controller in this way.

Connect a turntable (MM) that has a built-in phono preamp to TV/CD IN, or connect it to PHONO IN with the phono preamp turned off. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have a phono preamp, connect it to PHONO IN. If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer to connect to PHONO IN. See your turntable’s manual for details. If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the AV controller’s GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire may produce an audible hum. If this happens, disconnect it.

When you connect your personal computer to PC IN and select the PC input selector, the video of the personal computer is output from the HDMI outputs. However, if you have assigned the HDMI inputs to the PC input selector, the AV controller will output signals received from the HDMI inputs instead of signals from PC IN, based on the priority order of HDMI > component video > PC IN (analog RGB). To have the signals output from PC IN, select “-----” for “PC” in the “HDMI Input” setting (➔ page 50).

Before using the balanced input, you must assign it to an input selector. See “Balance” (➔ page 52) for details. To select the balanced input, see “Audio Selector” (➔ page 63). The AV controller’s balanced INPUT jacks are wired as shown.

Before using the multichannel input, you must assign it to an input selector. See “Multich” (➔ page 51) for details. To select the multichannel input, see “Audio Selector” (➔ page 63). To adjust the subwoofer sensitivity of the multichannel input, see “Subwoofer Input Sensitivity” (➔ page 52).

• With connection E, you can enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. (To record or listen the audio in Zone 2/3 as well, use E

H.)

and

• With connection

H, you can listen to and record audio from external components while you are in Zone 2/3.

• With connection H, if your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player has both the main stereo and multichannel outputs, be sure to connect to the main stereo.

■ How to record a video source

With the connections described above, you cannot record the videos through the AV controller. See “Recording” about connections for video recording (➔ page 47).

Tip

• You can also use the remote controller’s number buttons to select a preset directly.

Using RDS (excluding North American models)

RDS works only in areas where RDS broadcasts are available.

When tuned into an RDS station, the RDS indicator lights. When the station is broadcasting text information, the text can be displayed.

■ What is RDS?

RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available in most European countries. Many FM stations use it these days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport, rock, etc.).

The AV controller supports four types of RDS information:

PS (Program Service)

When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS information, the station’s name will be displayed. Pressing Display will display the frequency for 3 seconds.

RT (Radio Text)

When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text information, the text will be shown on the display as described in the next section.

PTY (Program Type)

This allows you to search for RDS radio stations by type (➔ page 33).

TP (Traffic Program)

This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that broadcast traffic information (➔ page 33).

Note

• In some cases, the text characters displayed on the AV controller may not be identical to those broadcast by the radio station. Also, unexpected characters may be displayed when unsupported characters are received. This is not a malfunction.

• If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be displayed intermittently or not at all.

Page 33

■ Displaying Radio Text (RT)

Press RT/PTY/TP once.

The RT information scrolls across the display.

Note

• The message “Waiting” may appear while the AV controller waits for the RT information.

• If the message “No Text Data” appears on the display, no RT information is available.

■ Finding Stations by Type (PTY)

You can search for radio stations by type.

Press RT/PTY/TP twice.

The current program type appears on the display.

Use Preset e/r to select the type of program you

want.

See the table shown later in this chapter.

To start the search, press the enter button.

The AV controller searches until it finds a station of the type you specified, at which point it stops briefly before continuing with the search.

When a station you want to listen to is found, press

the enter button.

If no stations are found, the message “Not Found” appears.

■ Listening to Traffic News (TP)

You can search for stations that broadcast traffic news.

Press RT/PTY/TP three times.

If the current radio station is broadcasting TP (Traffic Program), “[TP]” will appear on the display, and traffic news will be heard as and when it’s broadcast. If “TP” without square brackets appears, this means that the station is not broadcasting TP.

To locate a station that is broadcasting TP, press

the enter button.

The AV controller searches until it finds a station that’s broadcasting TP.

If no stations are found, the message “Not Found” appears.

Using Basic Functions

Using the Automatic Speaker Setup

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey MultEQ®XT32 automatically determines the number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 can be used with Audyssey Dynamic EQ Audyssey Dynamic Volume® (➔ pages 59, 60). Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 offers two ways of measuring: the “Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration”.

•“Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from one position to perform the speaker setting only.

•“Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration” uses the measurement from eight positions to correct room response in addition to the speaker setting.

The more positions are used in measuring, the better the listening environment will become. We recommend using a measurement from eight positions to create the best listening environment.

The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes about 20 minutes.

Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

Note

• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if it is not in use) or place it away from all audio electronics.

• The microphone picks up test tones played through each speaker as Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup run.

• Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

Measurement procedure

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 takes measurements at up to eight positions within the listening area. Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce inaccurate results.

■ First measurement position

Also referred to as the Main Listening Position this refers to the most central position where one would normally sit within the listening environment. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

−eighth measurement positions

■ Second

These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to eight positions.

For the Blu-ray Discs, Dolby Digital is used in a 3.1/5.1-channel speaker system.

AV controller can input the DSD signal from HDMI IN. Setting the output setting on the player side to PCM might obtain a better sound according to the player. In that case, set the output setting on the player side to PCM.

DTS is used depending on the configuration of the AV controller (e.g., Audyssey Dynamic EQ® is on).

If there are no surround back speakers, DTS is used.

DTS Neo:X cannot be selected in the case of 192 kHz input signals.

• This listening mode can be selected only when all the following conditions are satisfied: – Center speaker is connected. – Either of front high or front wide speakers is connected.

• The listening modes cannot be selected with some source formats.

Dialogue Normalization

Dialogue Normalization (Dialog Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital, which is used to keep the programs at the same average listening level so the user does not have to change the volume control between Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD programs. When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display which will read “Dialog Norm X dB” (X being a numeric value). The display is showing how the program level relates with THX calibration level. If you want to play the program at calibrated theatrical levels, you may wish to adjust the volume. For example, if you see the following message: “Dialog Norm + 4 dB” in the front panel display, to keep the overall output level at THX calibrated loudness, just turn down the volume control by 4 dB. However, unlike a movie theater where the playback loudness is preset, you can choose your preferred volume setting for best enjoyment.

THX Loudness Plus

THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™ and THX Select2 Plus™ Certified receivers. With THX Loudness Plus, home theater audiences can now experience the rich details in a surround mix at any volume level. A consequence of turning the volume below Reference Level is that certain sound elements can be lost or perceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial shifts that occur when the volume is reduced by intelligently adjusting ambient surround channel levels and frequency response. This enables users experience the true impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume setting. THX Loudness Plus is automatically applied when listening in any THX listening mode. The new THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games modes are tailored to apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings for each type of content.

` Mid:

Medium Compression Mode activated.

` High

: High Compression Mode activated. This setting affects volume the most, causing all sounds to be of equal loudness.

“Volume Leveler” maintains the perceived loudness of all contents, coming from different channels or input sources.

Note

•If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.

■ Half Mode

` Off ` On

The Half Mode parameter turns Dolby Volume Half Mode processing on and off.

In off mode, Dolby Volume applies a bass and treble attenuation to the audio when the system gain exceeds reference level. This enables a more perceptually flat listening experience as human ears are more sensitive to bass and treble at higher levels. Some listeners however, prefer to have more bass and treble performance at higher gain levels.

Note

•If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.

• During Half Mode on playback, Dolby Volume does not apply a bass and treble attenuation when the system volume exceeds reference level thereby boosting perception of high and low frequencies.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level — not just at reference level.

■ Reference Level

Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset

` 0dB

This should be used when listening to movies.

` 5dB:

Select this setting for content that has a very wide dynamic range, such as classical music.

` 10dB:

Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a wider dynamic range. This setting should also be selected for TV content as that is usually mixed at 10 dB below film reference.

` 15dB:

Select this setting for pop/rock music or other program material that is mixed at very high listening

levels and has a compressed dynamic range. Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film reference. To achieve the same reference level in a

home theater system each speaker level must be adjusted so that –30 dBFS band-limited (500 Hz to 2000 Hz) pink noise produces 75 dB sound pressure level at the listening position. A home theater system automatically calibrated by Audyssey MultEQ XT32 will play at reference level when the master volume control is set to the 0 dB position. At that level you can hear the mix as the mixers heard it.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ is referenced to the standard film mix level. It makes adjustments to maintain the reference response and surround envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However, film reference level is not always used in music or other nonfilm content. Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset provides three offsets from the film level reference (5 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be selected when the mix level of the content is not within the standard.

Note

• If “Dynamic EQ” setting is set to “Off”, these technologies cannot be used.

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any user-selected volume setting. The result is bass response, tonal balance and surround impression that remain constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume

Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. Whenever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression and dialog clarity remain the same whether watching movies, flipping between television channels or changing from stereo to surround sound content.

12V Trigger A/B/C Setup

Depending on their type, when some components are turned by using triggers A, B, and C, a large amount of current may be drawn at once. To prevent this, you can delay each trigger signal individually. Another application of trigger delay is to eliminate the “thump” noise that’s sometimes heard when a source component is turned on.

You can accomplish this by delaying the trigger signal for your power amplifier, so that it’s the last component to be turned on.

■ Delay

` 0sec, 1sec, 2sec, 3sec:

When “0sec” is selected, the trigger signal is activated as soon as the input source is changed.

Note

• By default, “12V Trigger A Setup” is set to “0sec”, “12V Trigger B Setup” to “1sec”, and “12V Trigger C Setup” to

Network

After modifying the network settings, you must confirm the changes by executing “Save”.

This section explains how to configure the AV controller’s network settings manually.

If your router’s DHCP server is enabled, you don’t need to change any of these settings, as the AV controller is set to use DHCP to configure itself automatically by default (i.e., DHCP is set to “Enable”). If, however, your router’s DHCP server is disabled (you’re for example using static IP), you’ll need to configure these settings yourself, in which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is essential.

What’s DHCP?

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used by routers, computers, the AV controller, and other devices to automatically configure themselves on a network.

What’s DNS?

The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a domain name such as www.onkyousa.com in your Web browser, before accessing the site, your browser uses DNS to translate this into an IP address, in this case

63.148.251.142.

■ MAC Address

This is the AV controller’s MAC (Media Access Control) address. This address cannot be changed.

■ DHCP

` Enable ` Disable

This setting determines whether or not the AV controller uses DHCP to automatically configure its IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server settings.

Note

• If you select “Disable”, you must configure the “IP Address”, “Subnet Mask”, “Gateway”, and “DNS Server” settings yourself.

■ IP Address

` Class A:

“10.0.0.0” to “10.255.255.255”

` Class B:

“172.16.0.0” to “172.31.255.255”

` Class C:

“192.168.0.0” to “192.168.255.255” Enter a static IP address provided by your ISP. Most routers use Class C IP addresses.

■ Subnet Mask

Enter the subnet mask address provided by your ISP (typically 255.255.255.0).

■ Gateway

Enter the gateway address provided by your ISP.

■ DNS Server

Enter the DNS server address provided by your ISP.

the input selector. Make sure that the multichannel input is selected. 63 Check the audio output settings on your source

component.

—

■ About DTS signals

When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV controller remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because the AV controller does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which case you should stop your player for about three seconds, and then resume playback.

With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to play back DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV controller. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV controller doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

Playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

Connection Tips and Video Signal Path

The AV controller supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.

The on-screen menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT MAIN. If your TV is connected to other video outputs, use the AV controller’s display when changing settings.

Video Connection Formats

Video components can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, S-Video, PC IN (Analog RGB), component video or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

The AV controller can upconvert and downconvert between video formats, depending on the “Monitor Out” setting (➔ page 49), which generally determines whether video signals are upconverted for the component video output or the HDMI output.

Tip

• For optimal video performance, THX recommends that video signals pass through the system without upconversion (e.g., component video input passing through to component video output).

• To by-pass the upconversion, set the “Picture Mode” setting to “Direct” (➔ page 61).

■ “Monitor Out” set to “HDMI Main” or “HDMI Sub”

Video input signals flow through the AV controller as shown, with composite video, S-Video, PC IN (Analog RGB) and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output. Use these settings if you connect

either the HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB of the AV controller to your TV.

The composite video, S-Video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

■ “Monitor Out” set to “Analog”

Video input signals flow through the AV controller as shown, with composite video, S-Video, and PC IN (Analog RGB) sources being upconverted for the component video output.

Use this setting if you connect the AV controller’s COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT to your TV.

Composite video is upconverted to S-Video and S-Video is downconverted to composite video. Note that these conversions only apply to the MONITOR OUT V and S outputs, not the VCR/DVR OUT V and S outputs.

The composite video, S-Video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

This signal flow also applies when the “Resolution” setting is set to “Through” (➔ page 49).

Video Signal Flow and the Resolution Setting

When the “Monitor Out” setting is set to “Analog” (➔ page 49), if the “Resolution” setting is set to anything other than “Through” (➔ page 49), the video signal flow will be as shown here, with composite video, S-Video, and PC IN (Analog RGB) sources being upconverted for the component video output. The composite video, S-Video, and component video outputs pass through their respective analog input signals as they are. HDMI input signals are not output.

Audio Connection Formats

Audio components can be connected by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, analog multichannel, optical, coaxial or HDMI.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV controller does not convert digital input signals for analog line outputs and vice versa. For example, audio signals connected to an optical or coaxial digital input are not output by the analog VCR/DVR OUT.

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, digital, analog.

About HDMI

Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)*1, so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)

The AV controller uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) can display the picture.

The AV controller’s HDMI interface is based on the following: Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, DeepColor, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DSD and Multichannel PCM.

Supported Audio Formats

• 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio)

Your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.

, so only HDCP-compatible components

About Copyright Protection

The AV controller supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) video signals. Other devices connected to the AV controller via HDMI must also support HDCP.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 in 1999.

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open industry group’s objective is to address the industry’s requirements for a digital connectivity specification for highperformance PCs and digital displays.

Note

• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.
