Connecting Your Speakers
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 II, 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.
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.
1/3 of wall
position
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 equally spaced from the listener.

Speaker Configuration
For 5.1-channel surround-sound playback, you need five
speakers and a powered subwoofer.
The following table shows which channels you should
use based on the number of speakers you have.

Front left

Center
Surround left
Surround right
✓✓✓✓
✓✓✓✓
✓✓
✓✓
✓✓
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a powerful and solid bass.
Before using the AV receiver, you must specify which
speakers are connected and their sizes (see page 35).
To get the very best from your surround-sound system,
you should also specify the distance between the listener
and each individual speaker so that the sound from each
speaker arrives at the listener’s ears at the same time (see
page 36). In addition, you should set the level of each
individual speaker to achieve an equal balance (see
page 37.)
Using Dipole Speakers
You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and
right. 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.

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,

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.

the audio and video outputs from your TV or other video component directly to the recording VCR/DVR’s audio and
video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV or VCR/DVR for details.
•Video signals connected to composite video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. So if your
source TV or VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR/DVR must be connected to the
VCR/DVR OUT V jack. Likewise, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR

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),
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:
Repeater System, x.v. Color, Lip Sync, Dolby Digital Plus, 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 (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS)
Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.
*1
so TVs and displays
About Copyright Protection
The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection),
video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.
Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT
to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.
*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG
*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
If you have an HDMI-compatible player, you can connect it to the AV receiver with an HDMI cable.
Step 1: Use HDMI cables to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI jacks to your HDMI-compatible DVD player, TV,
projector, and so on.
Step 2: Assign each HDMI IN to an input selector in the HDMI Input Setup (see page 39).
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 64).
To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the AudioTVOut
setting to On (see page 64), 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.
•To listen to an HDMI source component through the AV receiver, you must configure your system so that video from
the HDMI source component can be displayed on your TV (i.e., on your TV, select the HDMI input that’s connected
to the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT). This is necessary because a component identification check has to be performed
on your TV before an HDMI source component can output any signals. If your TV is off or set to a different input
source, the AV receiver may produce no sound or the sound may be distorted.
• 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.

Connecting Integra/Onkyo Components
Step 1: Make sure that each Integra/Onkyo component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable
(RCA).
Step 2: Make the necessary connections (see illustration below).
Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or RI DOCK component, change the Input Display (see page 41).
With (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:
Auto Power On/Standby
When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will automatically turn
on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all components
connected via will also go on Standby.
Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as
the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s DVD IN (multichannel input), you’ll need to
press the [Multi CH] button repeatedly and select Multich to hear all channels (see page 43), as the Direct Change
function selects the DVD IN FRONT L/R jacks.
Remote Control
You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other -capable Integra/Onkyo components. You must
enter the appropriate remote control code first (see page 72). And remember to point the remote controller at the AV
receiver and not the other component.
Notes:
• Use only cables for connections. cables
are supplied with Integra/Onkyo players (DVD, CD,
etc.).
• Some components have two jacks. You can connect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is
for connecting additional -capable components.
• Connect only Integra/Onkyo components to
jacks. Connecting 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 Auto Power On/Standby and
Direct Change functions do not work.

Up and Running in a Few Easy Steps
To get your system up and running with the minimum of fuss, here’s a few pointers to help you configure the AV
receiver before you use it for the very first time. These settings only need to be made once.
■ Do the speaker configuration—this is essential!
See “Speaker Configuration” on page 35.
■ Did you connect a component to an HDMI input,
component video input, or digital audio input?
If you did, see “HDMI Input Setup” on page 39, “Component Video
Input Setup” on page 40, or “Digital Input Setup” on page 40 respectively.
■ Did you connect an Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or RI
Dock?
If you did, see “Changing the Input Display” on page 41.

Speaker Configuration
With the Speaker Configuration settings, you can specify
which speakers are connected and a crossover frequency,
distance, and level for each speaker.
The following crossover frequencies can be specified:
Full Band, 40Hz, 45Hz, 50Hz, 55Hz, 60Hz, 70Hz, 80Hz,
90Hz, 100Hz, 110Hz, 120Hz, 130Hz, 150Hz, or 200Hz.
Specify Full Band for speakers that can output low-fre-
quency bass sounds adequately, for example, speakers
with a good sized woofer. For smaller speakers, specify
a crossover frequency. Sounds below the crossover frequency will then be output by the subwoofer instead of
the speaker. Refer to your speakers’ manuals to determine the optimum crossover frequencies.

About the Listening Modes
The AV receiver’s listening modes can transform your
listening room into a movie theater or concert hall, with
high fidelity and stunning surround sound.
The illustration shows which speakers are active in
each listening mode with 5.1 channel speaker system.
Front leftCenterFront right
Subwoofer
Surround rightSurround left
Direct
In this mode, audio from the input source is output
directly with minimal processing, providing high-fidelity reproduction. All of the source’s audio channels are
output as they are.
Stereo
Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and
subwoofer.
Mono
Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono
soundtrack, or use it with the foreign language
soundtracks recorded in the left and right channels of
some movies. It can also be used with DVDs or other
sources containing multiplexed audio, such as karaoke
DVDs.
Dolby Digital Plus
Developed for use with HDTV, including the new video
disc formats Blu-ray and HD DVD, this is the latest multichannel audio format from Dolby. It supports up to 7.1
channels with 48kHz sampling rate.
DTS
The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to
5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for highfidelity reproduction. Use it with DVDs and CDs that
bear the DTS logo.
DTS 96/24
This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is
high-resolution DTS with a 96kHz sampling rate and 24bit resolution, providing superior fidelity. Use it with
DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.
DTS Neo:6
This mode expands any 2-channel source for 5.1-channel playback. It uses seven full-bandwidth channels of
matrix decoding for matrix-encoded material, providing
a very natural and seamless surround sound experience
that fully envelops the listener.
Neo:6 Cinema
Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD,
VHS).
Neo:6 Music
Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD,
radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).
Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II
expands any 2-channel source for
5.1-channel playback. It provides a very natural and
seamless surround-sound experience that fully envelops
the listener. As well as music and movies, video games
can also benefit from the dramatic spatial effects and
vivid imaging.
• Dolby PLII Movie
Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround
(Pro Logic) movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).
• Dolby PLII Music
Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround
(Pro Logic) music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette,
TV, VHS, DVD).
• Dolby PLII Game
Use this mode with video games, especially those
that bear the Dolby Pro Logic II logo.
Dolby Digital
Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital
logo, and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts. This is the most
common digital surround-sound format, and it’ll put you
right in the middle of the action, just like being in a
movie theater or concert hall.

Using the Listening Modes
—Continued
Onkyo Original DSP Modes
Mono Movie
This mode is suitable for old movies and other mono
sources. The center speaker outputs the sound as it is,
while reverb is applied to the sound output by the other
speakers, giving presence to even mono material.
Orchestra
Suitable for classical or operatic music, this mode
emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the
stereo image and simulates the natural reverberation of a
large hall.
Unplugged
Suitable for acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz, this
mode emphasizes the front stereo image, giving the
impression of being right in front of the stage.
Studio-Mix
Suitable for rock or pop music, listening to music in this
mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.
TV Logic
This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire
sound, and clarity to voices.
All Ch Stereo
Ideal for background music, this mode fills the entire listening area with stereo sound from the front, and surround speakers.
Full Mono
In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in
mono, so the sound you hear is the same regardless of
where you are within the listening room.
T-D (Theater-Dimensional) or
With this mode you can enjoy a virtual 5.1 surround
sound even with only two or three speakers. This works
by controlling how sounds reach the listener’s left and
right ears. Good results may not be possible if there’s too
much reverb, so we recommend that you use this mode
in an environment with little or no natural reverb.

Page 56
Recording
This section explains how to record the input source and
how to record audio and video from separate sources.
Notes:
• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot
be recorded.
• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to the analog multichannel input
cannot be recorded.
• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be
recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.
• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t
attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.
Recording the Input Source
Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack.
Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g.,
VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.
See pages 19 to 33 for hookup information.
1
Use the input selector buttons to
select the source that you want
to record.
See “Which Connections Should I
Use?” on page 20 to see which signals
can be output and recorded.
Recording from Different AV Sources
You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by
simultaneously recording audio and video from two separate sources. This is possible because only the audio
source is switched when an audio-only input source,
such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video
source remains the same.
In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder connected to the GAME/TV V jack are recorded by the VCR
connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

■
Center Width
With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound
from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic
II Music listening mode. Normally, if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only
the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker,
the center channel sound will be distributed to the front
left and right speakers to create a phantom center). This
setting controls the front left, right, and center mix,
allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel
sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7. The default value
is 3.

Neo:6 Music
■
Center Image
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 5-channel
surround sound from 2-channel stereo sources. With this
setting, you can specify by how much the front left and
right channel output is attenuated in order to create the
center channel. It can be adjusted from 0 to 5. The
default value is 2.
When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is
attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the
sound is located centrally. This setting works well when
the listening position is considerably off center. When
set to 5, the front left and right channels are not attenuated, maintaining the original stereo balance.
T–D (Theater-Dimensional) Setting
■
LstnAngl (Listening Angle)

■
AudioTVOut
This setting determines whether audio received by an
HDMI input is output by the HDMI outputs. You may
want to change this setting to On if your TV is connected
to an HDMI output and you want to listen to audio from
an HDMI component through your TV’s speakers. Normally, it should be set to Off.
Off:
HDMI audio is not output (default).
On:
HDMI audio is output.
Notes:
• If On is selected and the signal can be output by the
TV, the AV receiver will output no sound through its
speakers.
• When TV Control is enabled, this setting is set to
Auto.
•With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be
output even if On is selected.
• When the AudioTVOut setting is set to On, or TV
Control is set to Enable and you’re listening through
your TV’s speakers (see page 28), if you turn up the
AV receiver’s 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.

Hookup
• Use a miniplug cable to connect the AV receiver’s 12V
TRIGGER OUT A, B, or C jack to the 12 V trigger
input on a connected component.
When several components are turned on simultaneously
by using triggers A, B, and C, depending on the type of
components, a large amount of current may be drawn
momentarily. To prevent this, you can delay trigger signals A, B, and C individually. Another application for
trigger delay is eliminating the “thump” noise that’s
sometimes heard when a source component is turned on.
Delaying the trigger signal for your power amplifier so
that it’s the last component to be turned on will accomplish this.

Troubleshooting
If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a
solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue
yourself, contact the dealer.
If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting
the AV receiver before contacting the dealer.
To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults,
turn it on and, while holding down the [VCR/DVR]
button, press the [On/Standby] button. “Clear” will
appear on the display and the AV receiver will
enter Standby mode.
Note that resetting the AV receiver will delete your
radio presets and custom settings.
Power
Can’t turn on the AV receiver
• Make sure that the power cord is plugged into the wall
outlet properly.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 5
seconds or more, then plug it back in again.
The AV receiver turns off as soon as it’s turned
on
• The amp protection circuit has been activated.
Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immediately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources,
and leave the AV receiver with its power cord disconnected for 1 hour. After that, reconnect the power cord
and set the volume to maximum. If the AV receiver
stays on, set the volume to minimum, disconnect the
power cord, and reconnect your speakers and input
sources. If the AV receiver turns off when you set the
volume to maximum, disconnect the power cord, and
contact the dealer.
Audio
There’s no sound or it’s very quiet
•To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an
HDMI input, make sure that input is assigned to an
input selector (page 39).
•To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an
OPTICAL or COAXIAL input, make sure that input is
assigned to an input selector (page 40).
• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed
in all the way (page 19).
• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is
correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with the
metal part of each speaker terminal (page 16).
• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.
• Check the volume (page 43). The AV receiver is
designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide
volume range for precise adjustment.
• If the MUTING indicator is flashing on the display,
press the remote controller’s [Muting] button to
unmute the AV receiver (page 44).
• While a pair of headphones is connected to the Phones
jack, no sound is output by the main room speakers
(page 45).
• Check the digital audio output settings on the source
component. On some game consoles, such as those
that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.
•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an
audio format from a menu or with the Audio button on
your DVD player’s remote controller.
• If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp built-in,
you must connect one between it and the AV receiver.
• If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and a
phono preamp.
• Check the speaker settings (pages 35–38).
• If the digital signal format is set to PCM or DTS, set it
to Auto (page 46).
• If there’s no sound from a DVD player connected to an
HDMI IN, check the DVD player’s output settings,
and be sure to select a compatible audio format.
Only the front speakers produce sound
• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,
only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
Only the center speaker produces sound
• If you use the Dolby Pro Logic II Movie or Dolby Pro
Logic II Music listening mode with a mono source,
such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the
sound will be concentrated in the center speaker.
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The center speaker produces no sound
• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,
the center speaker produces no sound (page 54).
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The surround speakers produce no sound
• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,
the surround speakers produce no sound.
• Depending on the source and the current listening
mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try another listening mode (page 50).
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The subwoofer produces no sound
• If the source material contains no audio in the LFE
channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 35).
The Zone 2 speakers produce no sound
• The Zone 2 speakers only output sources that are connected to an analog input. Check to see if the source
component is connected to an analog input.

Troubleshooting
—Continued
There’s no sound with a certain signal format
• Check the digital audio output setting on the source
component. On some game consoles, such as those
that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.
•With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an
audio format from a menu or with the Audio button on
your DVD player’s remote controller.
The volume cannot be set to 79
• Check to see if a maximum volume has been set
(page 62).
• When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted
(page 37), the maximum possible volume may be
reduced.
Noise can be heard
• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power
cords, speaker cables, and so on can degrade audio
performance, so don’t use them.
• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try
repositioning your cables.
The Late Night function doesn’t work
• Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital (page 59).
The analog multichannel input doesn’t work
• Check the multichannel input connections (page 23).
• Make sure that the multichannel input is selected
(page 43).
• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.
About DTS signals
• When 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.
• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV receiver 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, as the AV receiver does not
switch formats immediately, you may not hear anything, in which case you should stop your player for
about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.
•With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback
DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is
usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed
(e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency
response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you
may hear noise.
The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN
can’t be heard
• Since it takes longer to identify the format of an
HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio signals, sound may not be output immediately.
Video
There’s no picture
• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed
in all the way (page 19).
• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.
• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which
the AV receiver is connected is selected.
• The AV receiver does not convert between formats, so
if a video source component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the
component video output (page 20).
• If the video source is connected to an HDMI input,
your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT
(page 20).
There’s no picture from a source connected to
an HDMI IN
• Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is
not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC
are not supported (page 28).
• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV
receiver’s display, this indicates that your TV does not
support the current video resolution and you need to
select another resolution on your DVD player.
Tuner
Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers
from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t
light up
• Relocate your antenna.
•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer.
• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote
controller may cause noise.
•Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.
• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.
• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor
antenna.
Remote Controller
The remote controller doesn’t work
• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 13).
• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far
away from the AV receiver and there’s no obstruction
between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s
remote control sensor (page 13).
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode.
• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control
code (page 71).

Can’t control other components
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode.
• If you’ve connected an -capable Onkyo MD
recorder, CD recorder, or RI Dock to the TAPE
IN/OUT jacks, or an RI Dock to the GAME/TV IN
jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you
must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or DOCK,
respectively (see page 41).
• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If
more than one code is listed, try each one.
•With some AV components, certain buttons may not
work as expected, and some may not work at all.
•To control an Integra/Onkyo component that’s connected via , point the remote controller at the AV
receiver. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 72).
•To control an Integra/Onkyo component that’s not
connected via , or another manufacturer’s component, point the remote controller at that component. Be
sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first
(page 71).
Recording
Can’t record
• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is
selected.
•To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV
receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs
with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or
VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).
Others
The sound changes when I connect my headphones
• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening
mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo,
Mono, or Direct, in which case it stays the same.
How do I change the language of a multiplex
source
• On the “Audio Adjust” menu, change the “Input
(Mux)” setting to Main or Sub (page 57).
The functions don’t work
•To use , you must make an connection and an
analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and AV receiver, even if they are connected digitally (page 33).
• While Zone 2 is selected, the functions don’t

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations,
severe interference, noise from an external source, or
static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event
that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.
Integra/Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as
CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused
by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important
data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.
Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, set the AV receiver to Standby.
