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” (➔ page 58). 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.

Connections

• 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.

En-13

Connections

Using Dipole Speakers

TV/screen

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 (a) should be positioned so that their arrows point toward the TV/screen, while the surround back dipole speakers (b) should be positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Using Powered Subwoofers

LINE INPUT

Powered subwoofer

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.

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

The same signal is output from each jack.

Tip

• If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

Important:

• When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals.

• Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support biamping. Refer to your speaker manual.

Bi-amping provides 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. Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections as

shown and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the speaker setting to enable bi-amping (➔ page 58).

SB···Surround Back, FH···Front High, FW···Front Wide

Note

Specify “None” for any channel that you don’t want to output (➔ page 58).

When connecting to the SB/FH/FW EXT AMP jacks, you must set the “Preout to External Amplifier” setting (➔ page 58).

Using Speakers Without Crossover Network

Important:

• Speakers without crossover network are speakers with no built-in crossover network.

• With speakers without crossover network, be careful NOT to connect tweeters and woofers the wrong way around, as this may damage your speakers.

• With speakers without crossover network, be careful NOT to set “Speaker Type (Front)” to “Bi-Amp” as this may damage your speakers. Make sure that this setting is set to “Digital Crossover”.

• Confirm that your speakers are without crossover network by referring to your speaker manual.

Connecting speakers without crossover network provide a fine, three-dimensional sound field that extends bass and treble performance to the fullest extent. When speakers without crossover network are used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to a 5.1 speaker system in the main room. You must enable “Digital Crossover” in “Speaker Type

(Front)” (➔ page 58) and make the settings of “Digital Processing Crossover Network” (➔ page 62).

Note

• You need to make the setting before connecting the speakers.

Using Basic Functions

Using the Automatic Speaker Setup

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey MultEQ®XT32 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 XT32 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. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 can be used with Audyssey Dynamic EQ Audyssey Dynamic Volume® (➔ page 66). Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 offers two ways of measuring: the “Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration”.

•“Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from one position to perform the speaker setting only.

•“Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration” uses the measurement from eight positions to correct room response in addition to the speaker setting.

The more positions are used in measuring, the better the listening environment will become. We recommend using a measurement from eight positions to create the best listening environment.

The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes about 20 minutes.

Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

and

Measurement procedure

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 takes measurements at up to eight 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. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

■ Second-eighth measurement positions

These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to eight positions.

fed

Note

• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if it is not in use) or place it away from all audio electronics.

If you connect your personal computer to PC IN (Analog RGB), you must assign “-----” to the “PC” input selector.

Each HDMI input cannot be assigned to two input selectors or more. When HDMI1 - HDMI7 have already been assigned, you must first set any unused input selectors to “-----” or you will be unable to assign HDMI1 - HDMI7 to other input selectors.

Note

• For composite video and component video upconversion for the HDMI output, the “Monitor Out” setting must be set to other than “Analog” (➔ page 55), and the “HDMI Input” setting must be set to “-----”. See “Connection Tips and Video Signal Path” for more information on video signal flow and upconversion (➔ page 100).

• If no video component is connected to the HDMI output (even if the HDMI input is assigned), the AV receiver selects the video source based on the setting of “Component Video Input” and “Composite Video Input”.

• When an HDMI IN is assigned to an input selector as explained here, the same HDMI IN will be set as a priority in the “Digital Audio Input”. In this case, if you want to use the coaxial or optical audio input, make the appropriate selection in the “Audio Selector” setting (➔ page 70).

• Do not assign an HDMI IN to the TV/CD selector while “HDMI Control(RIHD)” is set to “On” (➔ page 74), otherwise appropriate CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) operation will not be guaranteed.

• If you assign “-----” to an input selector that is currently selected in “HDMI Through” (➔ page 74), the “HDMI Through” setting will be automatically switched to “Off”.

•“AUX” is used only for input from the front panel.

THX Loudness Plus

THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™ and THX Select2 Plus™ Certified receivers. With THX Loudness Plus, home theater audiences can now experience the rich details in a surround mix at any volume level. A consequence of turning the volume below Reference Level is that certain sound elements can be lost or perceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial shifts that occur when the volume is reduced by intelligently adjusting ambient surround channel levels and frequency response. This enables users experience the true impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume setting. THX Loudness Plus is automatically applied when listening in any THX listening mode. The new THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games modes are tailored to apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings for each type of content.

Digital Processing Crossover Network

Digital Crossover provides a separate routing system by splitting the audio signal into separate frequency bands optimized for each speaker driver. It provides a fine, threedimensional sound field that extend each driver’s performance to the uppermost. With its built-in time alignment function, this system also adjusts the sound shifting that occurs when there is a physical offset between sound drivers. At a digital processing level, it corrects this offset by delaying the related audio signal. Although this function is meant for speakers without crossover network, it can also be used with bi-amped speakers.

Tip

• This setting can be done while listening to an audio source.

• Press Mode/D (Blue) to switch from the current audio source to test noises. Pressing Mode/D (Blue) again or the cursor buttons will stop the test noises and switch back to the original audio source.

• When this setting is set to “Off”, the Dialogue Normalization information is not available for Dolby TrueHD sources.

■ Dolby Volume

` Off ` On

Dolby Volume automatically adjusts the difference in volume levels which can occur between different contents or source components, freeing the user from having to make volume adjustments. Also, by adjusting the frequency balance according to the playback volume, it recreates the original source audio. Dolby Volume therefore provides comfortable listening, effectively controlling the volume level difference without unnatural changes in volume or sound quality to recreate the balance and nuance of the source audio.

Note

•When the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “On”, “Dynamic EQ” and “Dynamic Volume” will be set to “Off”.

• If you would like to use Dolby Volume in THX listening modes, set the “Loudness Plus” and “Preserve THX Settings” settings to “Off” and “No”, respectively.

•When “Dolby Volume” is set to “On”, the Late Night function cannot be set.

■ Volume Leveler

` Off ` Low:

Low Compression Mode activated.

` Mid:

` High

: High Compression Mode activated. This setting affects volume the most, causing all sounds to be of equal loudness.

“Volume Leveler” maintains the perceived loudness of all contents, coming from different channels or input sources.

Note

• If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.

■ Half Mode

` Off ` On

The Half Mode parameter turns Dolby Volume Half Mode processing on and off.

In off mode, Dolby Volume applies a bass and treble attenuation to the audio when the system gain exceeds reference level. This enables a more perceptually flat listening experience as human ears are more sensitive to bass and treble at higher levels. Some listeners however, prefer to have more bass and treble performance at higher gain levels.

Note

• If the “Dolby Volume” setting is set to “Off”, this setting cannot be selected.

• During Half Mode on playback, Dolby Volume does not apply a bass and treble attenuation when the system volume exceeds reference level, thereby boosting perception of high and low frequencies.

Advanced Operations

Dialogue Normalization

Dialogue Normalization (DialogNorm) is a feature of Dolby Digital, which is used to keep the programs at the same average listening level so the user does not have to change the volume control between Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD programs. When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display which will read “DialogNorm: X dB” (X being a numeric value). The display is showing how the program level relates with THX calibration level. If you want to play the program at calibrated theatrical levels, you may wish to adjust the volume. For example, if you see the following message: “DialogNorm: + 4 dB” in the front panel display, to keep the overall output level at THX calibrated loudness, just turn down the volume control by 4 dB. However, unlike a movie theater where the playback loudness is preset, you can choose your preferred volume setting for best enjoyment.

Select this setting for content that has a very wide

dynamic range, such as classical music.

` 10dB:

Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a

wider dynamic range. This setting should also be

selected for TV content as that is usually mixed at

10 dB below film reference.

` 15dB:

Select this setting for pop/rock music or other

program material that is mixed at very high listening

levels and has a compressed dynamic range. Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film reference. To achieve the same reference level in a home theater

system each speaker level must be adjusted so that –30 dBFS band-limited (500 Hz to 2000 Hz) pink noise produces 75 dB sound pressure level at the listening position. A home theater system automatically calibrated by Audyssey MultEQ XT32 will play at reference level when the master volume control is set to the 0 dB position. At that level you can hear the mix as the mixers heard it.

Advanced Operations

Audyssey Dynamic EQ is referenced to the standard film mix level. It makes adjustments to maintain the reference response and surround envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However, film reference level is not always used in music or other non-film content. Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset provides three offsets from the film level reference (5 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be selected when the mix level of the content is not within the standard.

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any user-selected volume setting. The result is bass response, tonal balance and surround impression that remain constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume

Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. Whenever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression and dialog clarity remain the same whether watching movies, flipping between television channels or changing from stereo to surround sound content.

Setting the Incoming Digital Signal (Fixed Mode)

■ Fixed Mode

` Off

: The format is detected automatically. If no digital input signal is present, the corresponding analog input is used instead.

` PCM:

Only 2-channel PCM format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the PCM indicator will flash and noise may also be produced.

` DTS:

Only DTS (but not DTS-HD) format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not DTS, the dts indicator will flash and there will be no sound.

When “HDMI”, “COAXIAL” or “OPTICAL” is selected in the “Audio Selector” setting, you can then specify the signal type in “Fixed Mode”.

Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format automatically. However, if you experience either of the following issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you can manually set the signal format to PCM or DTS.

• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off, try setting the format to PCM.

• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.

Note

• The setting will be reset to “Off” when you change the setting in “Audio Selector”.

12V Trigger A/B/C Setup

Depending on their type, when some components are turned by using triggers A, B, and C, a large amount of current may be drawn at once. To prevent this, you can delay each trigger signal individually. Another application of trigger delay is to eliminate the “thump” noise that’s sometimes heard when a source component is turned on. You can accomplish this by delaying the trigger signal for your power amplifier, so that it’s the last component to be turned on.

■ Delay

Advanced Operations

Network

After modifying the network settings, you must confirm the changes by executing “Save”.

This section explains how to configure the AV receiver’s network settings manually. If your router’s DHCP server is enabled, you don’t need to change any of these settings, as the AV receiver is set to use DHCP to configure itself automatically by default (i.e., DHCP is set to “Enable”). If, however, your router’s DHCP server is disabled (you’re for example using static IP), you’ll need to configure these settings yourself, in which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is essential.

What’s DHCP?

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used by routers, computers, the AV receiver, and other devices to automatically configure themselves on a network.

What’s DNS?

The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a domain name such as www.onkyousa.com in your Web browser, before accessing the site, your browser uses DNS to translate this into an IP address, in this case

63.148.251.142.

■ Noise can be heard

Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and the like may degrade the audio performance, so refrain from doing it.

An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

—

■ The Late Night function doesn’t work

Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD.

Make sure that the “TrueHD Loudness Management” setting is not set to “Off”. The Late Night function doesn’t work when this setting is disabled.

■ About DTS signals

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, you may not hear any sound because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately. In such case, you should stop your player for about three seconds and then resume playback.

—

En-91

Appendix

With some CD and LD 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.

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.

—

■ 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, audio output may not start immediately.

Connection Tips and Video Signal Path

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.

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to HDMI OUT MAIN. If your TV is connected to other video outputs, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.

Video Connection Formats

Video components can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, PC IN (Analog RGB), component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

The AV receiver can upconvert between video formats, depending on the “Monitor Out” setting (➔ page 55), which generally determines whether video signals are upconverted for the component video output or the HDMI output.

Tip

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

• To by-pass the upconversion, set the “Picture Mode” setting to “Direct” (➔ page 68).

■ “Monitor Out” set to “Main” or “Sub”

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video, PC IN (Analog RGB), and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output. Use these settings if you connect either

HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB of the AV receiver to your TV.

The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

When you connect a video component to an HDMI, COMPONENT or COMPOSITE input, you must assign that input to an input selector (➔ page 56, 57).
