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. With Blu-ray Discs, you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes. You can also enjoy THX Surround EX (THX-certified THX speaker system recommended).

a Front speakers

These output the overall 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 equidistant from the TV. Angle them inward

b

d

c

Corner position

so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

b Center speaker

This speaker enhances the front speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. In movies it’s used mainly for dialog. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front speakers.

c Surround speakers

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.

d Surround back speakers

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, THX Surround EX, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level.

e 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 width of the wall, as shown.

1/3 of wall position

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.

Connecting Your Speakers

Speaker Configuration

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.

Center speaker ✔✔✔✔

Surround speakers ✔✔✔✔

Surround back speaker

Surround back speakers ✔

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 (➔ 12).

To get the best from your surround-sound system, you must set the speaker settings. You can do this automatically (➔ 24) or manually (➔ 37).

Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels

✔

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. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to 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.

The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are all red (the negative (–) speaker terminals are all black).

Speaker Color

The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and you should attach them to the positive (+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all you need to do is to match the color of each label to the corresponding speaker terminal.

• Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

• Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.

Connecting the Speaker Cables

Strip 1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm) of

1/2" to 5/8"(12 to 15 mm)

insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

Using Banana Plugs

• If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker terminal before inserting the banana plug.

• Do not insert the speaker code directly into the center hole of the speaker terminal.

The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals. If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the PRE OUT: SURR BACK jacks.

Note

• The speakers are configured by using “Speaker Setup” (➔ 37).

Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround and surround back 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 dipole speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward the TV/screen, while the surround back dipole speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Connecting a Powered Subwoofer

Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack to an input on your powered subwoofer, as shown. If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external amplifier, connect the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jack to an input on the amp.

You can connect the powered subwoofer with two SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jacks respectively.

The same signal is output from each jack.

When you connect your personal computer to PC IN and select PC Input selector, video of the personal computer is output from HDMI OUT. However, if you have assigned HDMI IN to the PC input selector, the AV receiver will output signals from HDMI IN

instead of signals from PC IN. To get the signals output from PC IN, select “-----” for “PC” in the “HDMI Input” setting

(➔ 36).

• With connection C, you can listen and record audio from the external components while you are in Zone 2. You can listen and record audio from the external components in the main room; you can listen to the audio in Zone 2 as well.

• With connection B, you can enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. (To record or listen in Zone 2 as well, use B and C.)

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

■ How to record the video

With the connections described above, you cannot record the video through the AV receiver. To make a connection for video recording (➔ 28).

Connecting Integra/Onkyo u Components

Step 1:

Make sure that each Integra/Onkyo component is connected with an analog audio cable (connection C in the hookup examples) (➔ 16).

Step 2:

Make the u connection (see illustration below).

Step 3:

If you’re using an RI Dock, or cassette tape deck, change the Input Display (➔ 23).

With u (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:

■ System On/Auto Power On

When you start playback on a component connected via u while the AV receiver is on Standby, the AV

receiver will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source.

■ Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via u, the AV receiver automatically selects that compo-

nent as the input source.

■ Remote Control

You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other u-capable Integra/Onkyo components,

pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first (➔ 60).

Note

•Use only u cables for u connections. u cables are supplied

with Integra/Onkyo players (DVD, CD, etc.).

• Some components have two u jacks. You can connect either

one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for connecting additional u-capable components.

• Connect only Integra/Onkyo components to u jacks. Connect-

ing other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

• Some components may not support all functions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Integra/Onkyo components.

• While Zone 2 is on, the System On/Auto Power On and Direct Change u functions do not work.

Connecting Antenna

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna. The AV receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use

the tuner.

Caution

• Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks.

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Push. Insert wire. Release.

Thumbtacks, etc.

Indoor FM antenna (supplied)

Note

• Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into a radio station and position the antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

• Keep the AM loop antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

Tip

• If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

• If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna.

Connecting the Power Cord

Note

• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components.

• Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different branch circuit.

• Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV receiver. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use with the AV receiver and should not be used with any other equipment.

• Never disconnect the power cord from the AV receiver while the other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so may cause an electric shock. Always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet first, and then the AV receiver.

Step 1:

Connect the supplied power cord to the AV receiver’s AC INLET.

To AC wall outlet

Step 2:

Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet.

Which Connections Should I Use?

The AV receiver 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.

Video Connection Formats

Video component can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

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

It is also recommended that you press VCR/DVR and

Composite

Return on the AV receiver at the same time. Select “Skip” in the “VProcessor(video processor)” setting by pressing Return repeatedly on the display. To reset back to the orig-

AV r e c eive r

inal setting, press the same button at the same time.

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being

Composite

upconverted for the HDMI output. The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are. When you connect audio component to an HDMI or COMPONENT input, you must assign that input to an input selector

(➔ 36).

■ Signal Selection

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, component video, composite video. However, for component video only, regardless of whether a component video signal is actually present, if a component

Composite

video input is assigned to the input selector, that component video input will be selected. And if no component video input is assigned to the input selector, this will be interpreted as no

AV r ecei ver

component video signal being present. In the Signal Selection Example shown on the right, video sig-

nals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs,
