Notes:
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV
receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct
sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this
in mind when installing.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in
the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to
equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote
controller may not work reliably.
• Don’t put anything on top of the remote controller,
such as a book or magazine, because a button may be
pressed continuously, thereby draining the batteries.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV
receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass
doors. Keep this in mind when installing.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an
obstacle between it and the AV receiver’s remote
control sensor.
• When the remote control codes have been registered
and you want to operate another component (page 80),
or when you want to operate an Integra/Onkyo component without u connection, point the remote controller at the other component to use it.
• When you want to operate an Integra/Onkyo component with u connection or an -compatible

About Home Theater
Enjoying Home Theater
Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your
own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. You can enjoy DVDs featuring Dolby Digital or DTS.
With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.
Front left and right speakers
These output the main sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid
anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at
about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so
as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.
Center speaker
This speaker enhances the front left
and right speakers, making sound
movements distinct and providing a
full sound image. For movies it’s used
mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV (preferably
on top) facing forward at about ear
level, or at the same height as the
front left and right speakers.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE
(Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The volume and
quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will
depend on its position, the shape of your listening
room, and your listening position. In general, a good
bass sound can be obtained by installing the
subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way
along the front wall, as shown.
You can connect the powered subwoofer with two
SUBWOOFER PREOUT jacks respectively.
Tip: To find the best position for your subwoofer,
while playing a movie or some music with good bass,
experiment by placing your subwoofer at various
positions within the room and choose the one that
provides the most satisfying results.
Surround back left and right speakers
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital
EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They
enhance the realism of surround sound and improve
sound localization behind the listener. Position them
behind the listener about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above
ear level.
Surround left and right speakers
These speakers are used for precise
sound pos itioning and to add realistic
ambience.
Position them at the sides of the
listener, or slightly behind, about
2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.
Ideally they should be equally spaced
from the listener.

For 7.1-channel surround-sound playback, you need
seven speakers and a powered subwoofer.
The following table shows which channels you should
use based on the number of speakers you have.

Front left✓✓✓✓✓✓
Front right✓✓✓✓✓✓
Center✓✓✓✓
Surround left✓✓✓✓
Surround right✓✓✓✓
Surround back*✓
Surround back left✓
Surround back right✓
* If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the
power amplifier’s left terminals.
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered
subwoofer is recommended for a powerful and solid
bass. If you use surround back speakers, another power
amplifier is necessary (page 18).
To get the best from your surround-sound system, you
must set the speaker settings. You can do this
automatically (see page 35) or manually (see page 61).
Attaching the Speaker Labels
The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are all
red. (The negative (–) speaker terminals are all black.)
SpeakerColor
Front leftWhite
Front rightRed
CenterGreen
Surround leftBlue
Surround rightGray
Surround back leftBrown
Surround back rightTan
The supplied speaker labels are color-coded and you
should attach them to the positive (+) side of each
speaker cable in accordance with the above table. All
you need to do then is to match the color of each label to
the corresponding speaker terminal.
Using Dipole Speakers
You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and
right and surround back left and right speakers. Dipole
speakers output the same sound in two directions.
Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them
to indicate how they should be positioned. The surround
left and right dipole speakers should be positioned so that
their arrows point toward your TV or screen, while the
surround back left and right dipolar speakers should be
positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as
shown.
If you use surround back speakers, another power
amplifier is necessary (page 18).

Connecting a Powered Subwoofer
Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s PRE
OUT: SUBWOOFER to the input on your powered
subwoofer. If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re
using an external amplifier, connect the PRE OUT:
SUBWOOFER to the amp’s input. You can connect the
powered subwoofer with two SUBWOOFER PREOUT
jacks respectively. The same signal is output from each
jack.

Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of
between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a
lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high
volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in
amp protection circuit may be activated.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before
making any connections.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect
positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals,
and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–)
terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the
sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may
affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the
positive and negative wires.
Doing so may damage the AV
receiver.
• Don’t connect more than one
cable to each speaker
terminal. Doing so may
damage the AV receiver.
• Don’t connect a speaker to several terminals.

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available
outdoor FM antenna instead.
Notes:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable
results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an
attic or loft.
• For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well
away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line
of sight to your local FM transmitter.
• Outdoor antenna should be located away from
possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads,
etc.
• For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated
well away from power lines and other high-voltage
equipment.
• Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance
with local regulations to prevent electrical shock
hazards.

Connecting Components with HDMI
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, 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, or 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 receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-compatible components will
display a picture.
The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:
Deep Color, x.v. Color, 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 (16/20/24 bit/32–192kHz)
• Multichannel linear PCM (7.1 ch, 32–192kHz)
• Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio,
DTS-HD Master Audio)
Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.
■ Integra/Onkyo for System Control
, which stands for Remote Interactive over HDMI, is the name of the system control function found on Integra/Onkyo components. The AV receiver can be used with CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), which allows system
control over HDMI and is part of the HDMI standard. CEC provides interoperability between various components,
however, operation with components other than -compatible components cannot be guaranteed.
• Set “HDMI Ctrl” to “On” (page 70).
• See “Controlling a TV” (page 82) and “Controlling a DVD Player, or DVD Recorder” (page 83) for operation.
Note:
Do not connect the -compatible component more than the following number to the HDMI input terminal so
that the linked operations work properly.
• DVD/BD player is up to three.
• DVD/BD recorder is up to three.
• Cable/Satellite Set-top box is up to four.
Do not connect the AV receiver to the other AV receiver /AV amplifier via HDMI.
When the -compatible component more than the above-mentioned is connected, the linked operations are not
guaranteed.
About Copyright Protection
The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection),*2 a copy-protection system for digital
video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.
*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 in 1999.
*2 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.
*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Led 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 high-performance PCs and
digital displays.

Making HDMI Connections
Step 1:
Use HDMI cables to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI jacks to your HDMI-compatible DVD/BD player, TV,
projector, and so on.
Step 2:
Assign each HDMI IN to an input selector in the HDMI Input Setup (see page 38).
■ Video Signals
Digital video signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are normally output by the HDMI OUT for display on your TV.
■ Audio Signals
Digital audio signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the speakers and headphones connected to the AV
receiver. Normally, they are not output by the HDMI OUT, unless the “AudioTVOut” setting is set to “On” (see
page 69).
Hint!
To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the “AudioTVOut”
setting to “On” (see page 69), and set your DVD player’s HDMI audio output setting to PCM.

Notes:
• 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.
• When listening to an HDMI component through the AV receiver, set the HDMI component so that its video can be
seen on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI component connected to the AV receiver). If the TV
power is off or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no sound from the AV receiver or the sound
may be cut off.
• When the “AudioTVOut” setting is set to “On” (see page 69), or “TV Ctrl” is set to “On” (see page 70) and you’re
listening through your TV’s speakers, if you turn up the AV receiver volume control, the sound will be output by the
AV receiver’s speakers. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers producing sound, change the settings, change your TV’s
settings, or turn down the AV receiver’s volume.
• 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.
