ACOMPONENT VIDEO IN 1, 2, 3 (27, 29, 31)
These component video inputs can be used to connect AV components with component video outputs, such as DVD players.
BAM ANTENNA (23)
These push terminals are for connecting an AM antenna.
CCOMPONENT VIDEO OUT (26)
This component video output can be used to connect a TV or projector with a component video input.
DFM ANTENNA (23)
This jack is for connecting an FM antenna.
ERS232 (35)
This port is for connecting the AV receiver to home automation equipment and external controllers.
FIR IN/OUT (67)
These jacks are for connecting the remote sensors included with multiroom kits (sold separately).
G12V TRIGGER OUT A/B/C (61, 67)
These jacks can be connected to the 12-volt trigger inputs on other components. These trigger outputs can each be assigned to an input so that when that input is selected, a 12-volt trigger signal is output.
HA-BUS
A-BUS is a simple, efficient, elegant audio distribution system. The wiring installation time is significantly reduced as only a single CAT-5 wire is run to each location. A-BUS is easy to use, reliable, affordable, and most of all, far better sounding than conventional auto former based volume controls.
ZONE 2 OUT: Use CAT-5 (eight conductor twisted) cable to connect directly from the receiver’s A-BUS RI45 Hub to an A-BUS keypad.
Warning:
DO NOT connect A-BUS output to any computer or network connections (i.e. ethernet). It will cause damage to the computer or network components as 24-volt power runs on this same cable to power the amplifier stages of the amplifier module.
IR OUT: Another feature of the A-BUS system is the ability to control source equipment in another room where the A-BUS module is installed. If you wish to control another source from the receiver at the A-BUS keypad by remote control, connect A-BUS or another brands’s IR emitter on the receiver’s 40 K terminal. Then place the emitter on the remote receiver on the front panel.
Typically, the emitter will work when you connect with a 40 K connector. If it does not work, try a 56 K connector.
DC IN: Connect A-Bus power supply. Do not use any other AC Adapter on this connector as it may cause severe damage to the receiver.
IMONITOR OUT (26)
The S-Video or composite video jack should be connected to a video input on your TV or projector.

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 DVDs you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With analog and digital TV you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II or Onkyo’s own DSP surround listening modes.
Front left and right 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 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. In 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 width of the wall, as shown.
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 left and right 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 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.

Connecting the AV receiver
About AV Connections
•Before making any AV connections, read the manuals supplied with your other AV components.
•Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed and double-checked all AV connections.
Optical Digital Jacks
The AV receiver’s optical digital jacks have shutter-type covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.
Caution: To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.
AV Cables & Jacks
AV Connection Color Coding
RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect rightchannel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs.

Speaker Connection Precautions
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
•Only connect speakers with an impedance of 6 ohms or higher. 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 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 one speaker to several terminals.

Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna
The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.
1 Attach the FM antenna, as shown.
Insert the plug fully into the jack.
Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
2 Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the FM antenna into position.
Thumbtacks, etc.
Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 24).
Connecting the AM Loop Antenna
The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.
1 Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting the tabs into the base, as shown.
2 Connect both wires of the AM loop antenna to the AM push terminals, as shown.
(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so they can be connected either way around). Make sure that the wires are attached securely and that the push terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.

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.
Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna
If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.
Outdoor antenna
Insulated antenna cable
AM loop antenna
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.
■ Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter
It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.
Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside horizontally, but good results can sometimes be obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.
Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

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 other components. Use the following sections as a guide. For video components, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.
Video Connection Formats
Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, S-Video, or component video, the latter offering the best picture quality.
A video signal connected to a V or S IN jack will be con- verted—composite video to S-Video or S-Video to composite video—but only for the MONITOR OUT jacks, not the VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 OUT V and S jacks.
