Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components. A setup wizard is launched upon first-time use to let you perform the settings (page 23).
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
• By default, speakers for 7.1-channel surround are configured to use: front right/front left/center/ surround right/surround left/surround back right/ surround back left/subwoofer.
Screw-type speaker terminals
Strip 1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.
1/2" to 5/8" (12 to 15 mm)
Banana Plugs (North American models)
• 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.
Speaker Connection Precautions
• 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 62). 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.
• 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.
En-14
• 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.
• 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.

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 bi-amping. 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.
Perform bi-amping connections by using FRONT terminals and FRONT HIGH/Bi-AMP terminals as shown below. Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the speaker setting to enable bi-amping (page 62).

• Input to the AV receiver can be selected with the remote controller of the TV.
• Operations such as volume adjustment or similar for the AV receiver can be performed from the remote controller of the TV.
For p-compatible players/recorders
The following linked operations are enabled by connecting the AV receiver to an p-compatible
player/recorder.
• When playback is started on the player/recorder, AV receiver will switch to the HDMI input of the player/recorder that is playing back.
• Operation of the player/recorder is possible using the remote controller supplied with the AV receiver.
*
Depending on the model used, not all operations may be available.
Note
• Do not assign an HDMI IN to the TV/CD selector at this time, otherwise appropriate CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) operation will not be guaranteed.

Confirm the settings

1. Turn on the power for all connected components.
2. Turn off the power of the TV, and confirm that the power of the connected components is turned off automatically with the link operation.
3. Turn on the power of the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player/recorder.
4. Start playback on the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player/recorder, and verify the following:
• The AV receiver automatically turns on, and
selects the input to which the Blu-ray Disc/DVD player/recorder is connected.
• The TV automatically turns on, and selects the
input to which the AV receiver is connected.
5. Following the operating instructions of the TV, select “Use the TV speakers” from the menu screen of the TV, and confirm that the audio is output from the speakers of the TV, and not from the speakers connected to the AV receiver.
6. Select “Use the speakers connected from the AV receiver” from the menu screen of the TV, and confirm that the audio is output from the speakers connected to the AV receiver, and not from the TV speakers.
Note
• Audio from DVD-Audio or Super Audio CD may not output
from the TV speakers. You will be able to output the audio from the TV speakers by setting the audio output of the DVD player to 2ch PCM. (It may not be possible depending on the player models.)
• Even if you set to output audio on the TV speakers, audio
will be output from the speakers connected to the AV receiver when you adjust the volume or switch the input on the AV receiver. To output audio from the TV speakers, re­do the corresponding operations on the TV.
• In case of an p connection with u and u audio
control compatible components, do not connect the u cable at the same time.
Connections
• On the TV, when you select anything other than the HDMI jack to which the AV receiver is connected, the input on the AV receiver will be switched to “TV/CD”.
• The AV receiver will automatically power on in conjunction when it determines it to be necessary. Even if the AV
receiver is connected to an p compatible TV or player/recorder, it will not power on if it is not necessary. It may not power on in conjunction when the TV is set to output audio from the TV.
• Linked functions with the AV receiver may not work depending on the component model connected. In such cases, operate the AV receiver directly.

The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.
Note
• In order for the AV receiver to upconvert component input to HDMI output, the source output must be set to 480i/576i. When signal is input at resolution of 480p/576p and more, error message will be displayed.
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 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 component video signal being present.
In the Signal Selection Example shown below, video signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs. However, the HDMI signal is automatically selected as the source and the video is output by the HDMI outputs.

Using the Automatic 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. Audyssey MultEQ can be used with Audyssey Dynamic EQ Audyssey Dynamic Volume Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers. Audyssey MultEQ offers two ways of measuring: the “Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ Full Calibration”.
•“Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from one position to perform the speaker setting only.
•“Audyssey MultEQ Full Calibration” uses the measurement from six 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 six 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
®
(page 67).
Measurement procedure
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. Audyssey MultEQ uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
Second-sixth measurement positions
These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to six positions.

Playing an Audio from Bluetooth­enabled Device
About the Bluetooth Wireless Technology
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range wireless technology that enables wireless data communication between digital devices. Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a range of about 15 meters (49 feet). You do not need to use a cable for connection, nor is it necessary for the devices to face one another, such is the case with infrared technology.
Tip
• The on-screen information appears only on a TV that is connected to HDMI outputs.
• If your Bluetooth-enabled device supports A2DP protocol, its audio file will play through the AV receiver.
• Connection is not guaranteed for all Bluetooth-enabled devices.
Operating on the Remote Controller
The Bluetooth-enabled device can be operated by the supplied remote controller.
Tip
• To operate your Bluetooth-enabled device by the remote controller, the Bluetooth-enabled device must support profile: AVRCP.
• Operation by the remote controller is not guaranteed for all Bluetooth-enabled devices.
Pairing the AV receiver with a Bluetooth­enabled device
Pairing is an operation where Bluetooth-enabled devices register with each other beforehand. Use the procedure below to pair the AV receiver with your Bluetooth-enabled device. Once a pairing operation is performed, it does not need to be performed again.
Place the Bluetooth-enabled device within
1
1 meter (3.3 feet) from the AV receiver.
Select “BLUETOOTH” in “Input” in Quick
2
Setup, and press Enter (➔ page 54). Bluetooth indicator flashes and the AV receiver
is put to pairing mode. “Now Pairing” appears on the AV receiver’s
display.

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.
THX Cinema Processing
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by the world-renowned film production company Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’ personal desire to make your experience of the film soundtrack in both movie theaters and in your home theater as faithful as possible to what the director intended.
Movie soundtracks are mixed in special environments called dubbing stages and are designed to be played back in movie theaters with similar equipment and conditions. Most of those soundtracks are remixed using flat response loudspeakers similar to those used in the small home theater environment before being transferred onto Blu-ray Discs, DVD, etc.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately translate the sound from the movie theater environment into the home, correcting the tonal and
spatial errors that occur. On this product, when the THX indicator is on, THX features are automatically added in Cinema modes (e.g. THX Cinema, THX Surround EX).
Timbre Matching
The human ear changes our perception of a sound depending on the direction from which the sound is coming. In a movie theater, there is an array of surround speakers so that the surround information is all around you. In a home theater, you may only have two speakers located to the side of your head. In this case, the Timbre Matching feature filters the information going to the surround speakers so that they more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front speakers. This ensures seamless panning between the front and surround speakers.
Adaptive Decorrelation
In a movie theater, a large number of surround speakers help create an enveloping surround sound experience. If a home theater only has two sidewall surround speakers, the surround speakers may sound similar to headphones lacking spaciousness and envelopment. Surround sounds will also collapse toward the closet speaker as you move away from the middle seating position. Adaptive Decorrelation slightly changes one surround channel’s time and phase relationship with respect to the other surround experience as in a movie theater using only two speakers.
ASA (Advanced Speaker Array)
ASA is a proprietary THX technology which processes the audio on the two side and two back surround speakers for the optional surround sound experience. When you set up your home theater system using eight speaker outputs (Left, Center, Right, Surround Right, Surround Back Right, Surround Back Left, Surround Left, and Subwoofer),
Playback
be sure to go to the THX Audio Setup screen and choose the setting that closely corresponds to the back speaker spacing (page 64). This will re­optimize the surround sound field.
ASA is used in four modes: THX Select2 Cinema, THX Select2 Music, THX Select2 Games and Dolby Pro Logic II + THX Select2 Games.
The listening mode may not be selected depending on the input signal. The signal input from the external AV components can be displayed by the function on the next page.

Phase Matching Bass
` Off ` On
From the warm low notes produced by a cello to the deep frequencies of electronic music, a good audio system should be able to deliver plenty of bass resonance.
While traditional enhancement systems effectively boost low-frequency sound, they are often prone to the effects of phase shifting, which can overwhelm mid-range frequencies and muddy the sound. Our Phase-Matching Bass Boost technology effectively preserves mid-range clarity-allowing vocals and strings to shine-while maintaining a smooth, powerful bass response at all volume levels.
Note
• The Phase Matching Bass is disabled when the Direct or THX listening mode is selected.

HDMI Input
If you connect a video component to an HDMI input, you must assign that input to an input selector. For example, if you connect your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player to HDMI IN 2, you must assign “HDMI2” to the “BD/DVD” input selector. If you’ve connected your TV to the AV receiver with an HDMI cable, composite video and component video sources can be upconverted HDMI output. You can set this for each input selector by selecting the “-----” option, but the video signal coming from the HDMI output depends on the assignments of “Component Video Input” and “Composite Video Input”.

Speaker Configuration
This setting is set automatically by Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup function (page 25).
With these settings, you can specify which speakers are connected and a crossover frequency for each speaker. Specify “Full Band” for speakers that can output low frequency bass sounds adequately, for example, speakers with a good sized woofer. For smaller speakers, specify a crossover frequency. Sounds below the crossover frequency will be output by the subwoofer instead of the speaker. Refer to your speaker’s manuals to determine the optimum crossover frequencies. If you set up your speakers using Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup, please make sure manually that any THX speakers are set to “80Hz(THX)” crossover.

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.

deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level — not just at reference level.

This should be selected for movie contents.
` 5dB:
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

Advanced Operations
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.
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. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in
®
tandem with Audyssey MultEQ
to provide well-
balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.
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.

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.

Network
This section explains how to configure the AV receiver’s network settings manually. After modifying the network settings, you must confirm the changes by executing “Save”. 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.

Room Correction and Speaker Setup
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. (page 56)
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. (page 66)
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.
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.
En-92

Radio Wave Caution
The AV receiver uses a 2.4 GHz radio wave frequency, which is a band used by other wireless systems as 1 and 2 described below.
1. Devices which use a 2.4 GHz radio wave frequency
• Cordless phones
• Cordless facsimiles
• Microwave ovens
• Wireless LAN devices (IEEE802.11b/g/n)
• Wireless AV equipment
• Wireless controllers for game systems
• Microwave oven-based health aids
• Video transmitter
• Specific type of external monitor and LCD
display
2. Less common devices which use a 2.4 GHz radio wave frequency
• Anti-theft systems
• Amateur radio stations (HAM)
• Warehouse logistic management systems
• Discrimination systems for train or emergency
vehicles
If these devices and the AV receiver are used at the same time, the audio may be undesirably stopped or disturbed due to a radio wave interference.
Suggestions for improvement
• Switch off the devices which emit the radio
wave.
• Place the interfering devices away from the AV
receiver.
• The AV receiver uses radio wave, and a third
person can receive the wave on purpose or accidentally. Do not use the communication for important or fatal matters.
En-96
• We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any error or damage of network environment or access device resulting from the use of this apparatus. Confirm with the provider or access device maker for more information.
Scope of Operation
Use of the AV receiver is limited to home use. (Transmission distances may be reduced depending on communication environment.)
In the following locations, poor condition or inability to receive radio waves may cause the audio to be interrupted or stopped:
• In reinforced concrete buildings or steel framed or iron framed buildings.
• Near large metallic furniture.
• In a crowd of people or near a building or obstacle.
• In a location exposed to the magnetic field, static electricity or radio wave interference from radio communication equipment using the same frequency band (2.4 GHz) as the AV receiver, such as a 2.4 GHz wireless LAN device (IEEE802.11b/g/n) or microwave oven.
• If you live in a heavily populated residential area (apartment, townhouse, etc.) and if your neighbor’s microwave oven is placed near your AV receiver, you may experience radio wave interference. If this occurs, move your AV receiver to a different place. When the microwave oven is not in use, there will be no radio wave interference.
Radio Wave Reflections
The radio waves received by the AV receiver include the radio wave coming directly from the devices and waves coming from various directions due to reflections by walls, furniture and building (reflected waves). The reflected waves (due to obstacles and reflecting objects) further produce a variety of reflected waves as well as variation in reception condition depending on locations. If the audio cannot be received properly due to this phenomenon, try moving the location of the wireless LAN device a little. Also note that audio may be interrupted due to the reflected waves when a person crosses or approaches the space between the AV receiver and the wireless LAN device.
• We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any damages resulting from the use of this apparatus except in the cases deemed acceptable under the applicable laws and regulations.
• Operation in all environment is not guaranteed for wireless LAN. The communication may not be possible or have desirable communication speed.
Precautions
• Do not use this apparatus near an electronic device handling high-accuracy controls or weak signals. Doing so may cause an accident due to a malfunction of the device.
