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 or DVDs, 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).
abFront speakers (Left and Right)
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 so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the
apex.
cCenter 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.
deSurround speakers (Left and Right)
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.
fSubwoofer(s)
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.
ghSurround back speakers (Left and Right)
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.
ijFront high speakers (Left and Right)
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height, and
Audyssey DSX™. They significantly enhance the spatial experience.
Position them at least 3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front speakers (preferably as high as possible) and at an angle slightly wider than the front
speakers.
klFront wide speakers (Left and Right)
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Audyssey DSX. They significantly enhance the spatial experience. Position them well outside of the
front speakers. See also
about optimum speaker placement for Audyssey DSX.

Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of between
4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected
speakers is 4 ohms or more, but less than 6 ohms, be sure
to set the minimum speaker impedance to “4ohms”
(➔ 50). 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 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.
• Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the AV receiver’s rear panel. Doing so may
damage the AV receiver.
Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels
The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are all
red (the negative (–) speaker terminals are all black).

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.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers
The FRONTL/R and SURR BACKL/R terminal posts can be
used with front speakers and surround back speakers respectively, or bi-amped to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds
for a pair of front speakers that support bi-amping, providing
improved bass and treble performance.
• When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to
a 5.1 speaker system in the main room.
• For bi-amping, the FRONT L/R terminal posts connect to the
front speakers’ woofer terminals; the SURR BACK L/R ter-
minal posts connect to the front speakers’ tweeter terminals.
• Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections shown
below and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the “Speak-ers Type(Front)” setting to “Bi-Amp” to enable bi-amping
(➔ 50).
Important:
• When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low)
• Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.

Audyssey MultEQ® Room Correction
and Speaker Setup
With the supplied calibrated microphone,
Audyssey MultEQ 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 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. Enabling Audyssey MultEQ allows you to also use
Audyssey Dynamic EQ
octave-to-octave balance at any volume level (➔ 55).
Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.
If “Dynamic EQ” is set to “On” (➔ 55), the “Equalizer”
setting will be set to “Audyssey” (➔ 52). On the other
hand, if it is set to “Off”, the “Dynamic Volume” setting
will be set to “Off” (➔ 56).
It takes about 30 minutes to complete Audyssey MultEQ
Room Correction and Speaker Setup for 6 positions. Total
measurement time varies depending on the number of
speakers.
Using Audyssey MultEQ
Using Audyssey MultEQ® to create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy,
Audyssey MultEQ takes measurements at up to six 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. MultEQ uses
the measurements from this position to calculate
speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
■ Second
These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places
where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up
to six positions.
The following examples show some typical home theater
seating arrangements. Choose the one that best matches
yours, and position the microphone accordingly when
prompted.

Room Correction and Speaker Setup,
Using a Powered Subwoofer
If you’re using a powered subwoofer and it outputs very
low-frequency sound at a low volume level, it may not be
detected by Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and
Speaker Setup.
If the “Subwoofer” appears on the “Review Speaker Configuration” screen as “No”, increase the subwoofer’s
volume to the half-way point, set it to its highest crossover
frequency, and then try running Audyssey MultEQ Room
Correction and Speaker Setup again. Note that if the volume is set too high and the sound distorts, detection issues
may occur, so use an appropriate volume level. If the subwoofer has a low-pass filter switch, set it to Off or Direct.
Refer to your subwoofer’s instruction manual for details.
• See “Speaker Configuration” for appropriate settings (➔ 13).
