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 IIx 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.

Surround back left and right speakers

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES

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 facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

Corner

Matrix, and DTS-ES Discrete. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2– 3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.

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.

1/3 wall length

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.

*If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the left (L) SURR BACK SPEAKERS terminals.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid bass.

To get the best from your surround sound system, you need to set the speaker settings by using the supplied speaker setup microphone (see page 41).

Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and right and surround back left and right 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 left

dipole

and right arrows point toward the TV/screen, while the surround back left and right dipole speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

• North American models: 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.

• Other models: 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 “4 ohms” (see page 51). 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.

• If you use 4 or 5 speakers, connect each of the two surround speakers to the SURR SPEAKERS terminals. Do not connect them to the SURR BACK SPEAKERS terminals.

• 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.

• 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 Speaker Cables

Strip about 5/8" (15 mm)

of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

Unscrew the terminal.

Fully insert the bare

wires.

Screw the terminal tight.

The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals. If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the left (L) SURR BACK SPEAKERS terminals.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminal posts can be used with front speakers and surround back speakers respectively, or bi-amped to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds for a pair of front speakers that support bi-amping, providing improved bass and treble performance.

• When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 5.1 speakers in the main room.

• For bi-amping, the FRONT L/R terminal posts connect to the front speakers’ tweeter terminals. And the SURR BACK L/R terminal posts connect to the front speakers’ woofer terminals.

• Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections shown below and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the Speaker Type setting to Bi-Amp to enable biamping (see page 51).

Important:

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

Thumbtacks, etc.

Push Insert wire Release

Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 23).

Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks.

Connecting the AV receiver—Continued

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.

FM 75

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.

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

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, component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality. The AV receiver can upconvert and downconvert between video formats, depending on the HDMI Monitor setting, which generally determines whether video signals are upconverted for the component video output or the HDMI output.

■ HDMI Monitor Setting Set to Yes

With the HDMI Monitor setting set to Yes (see page 47), video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video, S-Video, and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output. Use this setting if you connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT to your TV.

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

■ HDMI Monitor Setting Set to No

With the HDMI Monitor setting set to No (see page 47), video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and S-Video sources being upconverted for the component video output. Use this setting if you connect the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT to your TV.

Composite video is upconverted to S-Video and S-Video is downconverted to composite video. Note that these conversions only apply to the MONITOR OUT V and S outputs, not the VCR/DVR OUT V and S outputs.

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

Audio Connection Formats

Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, analog multichannel, or HDMI.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver does not convert digital input signals for analog line outputs and vice versa. For example, audio signals connected to an optical or coaxial digital input are not output by the analog TAPE OUT.

Connecting Components with HDMI

About HDMI

Designed to meet the 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, and multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)*1, so TVs and displays 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 can display the picture.

The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard: High-Definition Multimedia Interface Specification Informational Version 1.3a

Supported Audio Formats

• 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Bitstream (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio)

Your DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.

About Copyright Protection

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

Commercially available HDMI cables (supplied with some components) should be used 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*3 in 1999. *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): Lead 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.

Connecting the AV receiver—Continued

Making HDMI Connections

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 48).

■ Video Signals

Digital video signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are normally output by the HDMI OUT for display on your TV. Composite video, S-Video, and component video sources can be upconverted for the HDMI output. See “Video Connection Formats” on page 24 for more information.

■ 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 HDMI Audio Out setting is set to On (see page 82).

Note:

When listening to an HDMI component through the AV receiver, set the HDMI component so that its video can be seen on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI component connected to the AV receiver). If the TV power is off or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no sound from the AV receiver or the sound may be cut off.

Hint!

To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the HDMI Audio Out setting to On (see page 82), and set your DVD player’s HDMI audio output setting to PCM.

Connecting Components

Step 1: Make sure that each Integra component is

connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable (connection in the hookup examples) (see pages 26 to 38).

Step 2: Make the connection. Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or RI Dock,

change the input display (see page 51).

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 multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to press the [Multi CH] button to hear all channels (see page 55), as the Direct Change

function only selects the FRONT DVD IN jacks.

■ Remote Control

First Time Setup

This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV receiver for the very first time.

Automatic Speaker Setup (Audyssey 2EQ)

With the supplied speaker setup microphone, the Audyssey 2EQ function can measure the number of speakers connected, their sizes, crossover frequencies, and the distance from each speaker to the listening position and calculate the optimal speaker settings for your listening environment automatically.

Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers.

Measurement Points

To create a listening area in which several people can enjoy home theater simultaneously, the Audyssey 2EQ function takes measurements at three points within the listening area:

 First measurement point

This is the center point of the listening area, or the listening position if it’s just one person.

 Second measurement point

The right side of the listening area.

 Third measurement point

The left side of the listening area.

The distances between points and  must be at least 1 meter.

From the examples below, choose the listening area that best matches yours and place the microphone accordingly when prompted.

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks, which use a discrete surround back channel for true 6.1/

7.1-channel playback. The seven totally separate audio channels provide better spatial imaging and 360-degree sound localization, perfect for sounds that pan across the surround channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTSES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Discrete soundtrack.

Using the Listening Modes—Continued

DTS-ES Matrix

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks, which use a matrix-encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTSES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix soundtrack.

DTS Neo:6

This mode expands any 2-channel source for 7.1-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).

5.1-channel source + Neo:6

This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel sources for

6.1/7.1-channel playback.

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, surround, and surround back 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.

Recording

This section explains how to record the selected input source to a component with recording capability, and how to record audio and video from different sources.

Notes:

• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.

• You cannot record from the DVD analog multichannel input.

• Various restrictions apply to digital recording. Refer to the manuals supplied with your digital recording equipment for more details.

• Digital input signals are output by only the digital outputs, and analog input signals are output by only the analog outputs. There is no internal conversion from digital to analog or vice versa.

• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

AV Recording

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, DVD recorder) connected to the to VCR/DVR OUT jack. See pages 24 to 39 for hookup information.

Recording Separate AV Sources

Here you can record audio and video from completely separate sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact that when an audio-only input source (i.e., TAPE, TUNER, or CD) is selected, the video input source remains unchanged.

In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN, and video from the camcorder connected to the AUX Input Video jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

Camcorder

video signal audio signal

Use the input selector buttons to select the source that you want to record.

You can watch the source while recording. The AV receiver’s Master Volume control has no effect on recording.

On your recorder, start recording.

On the source component, start playback.

If you select another input source during recording, that input source will be recorded.

VCRCD player

Prepare the camcorder and CD player for

playback.

Prepare the VCR for recording.

Press the [AUX] input selector button.

Press the [CD] input selector button.

This selects the CD player as the audio source, but leaves the camcorder as the video source.

Start recording on the VCR and start play-

back on the camcorder and CD player.

The video from the camcorder and the audio from the CD player are recorded by the VCR.

PLIIx/Neo:6 Music Mode Settings

These settings provide for playing any 2-channel digital source such as Dolby Digital, or 2-channel analog/PCM source in the Dolby PLIIx Music listening mode.

■ Panorama

With this function, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode.

On: Panorama function on.

Off: Panorama function off (default).

■ Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. It can be adjusted from –3 to +3 (default is 0). Lower settings move the sound field forward. Higher settings move it backward.

If the stereo image feels too wide, or there is too much surround sound, move the sound field forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it is in mono, or there is not enough surround sound, move it backward.

■ Center Width

With this function, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic

II Music or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally

if you are using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you are 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 (default is 3).

■ Center Image

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-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 (default is 2). This setting is unavailable if no surround speakers are connected. 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.

Dolby EX Input Signal Setting

■ Dolby EX

This setting determines how Dolby EX encoded signals are handled. This setting is unavailable if no surround back speakers are connected. This setting is effective with Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus only.

Auto: If the source signal contains a Dolby EX flag,

the Dolby EX listening mode is used (default).

Manual: You can select any available listening mode.

T-D (Theater-Dimensional) Listening Setting

■ Listening Angle

With this setting, you can specify the angle of the front left and right speakers relative to the listening position.

Processing for the Theater-Dimensional listening mode is based on this setting. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be equidistant from the listening position and at an angle close to one of the two available settings.

Front left speaker

Narrow: Select if the listening angle is 20 degrees.

Wide: Select if the listening angle is 40 degrees

(default).

■ Delay

When several components are turned on simultaneously via the 12-volt triggers, depending on the type of components, a large amount of current may be drawn momentarily. To prevent this, you can delay the trigger signals output by the AV receiver. In addition, by delaying the trigger signal for your power amplifier so that it’s the last component to be turned on, you can avoid the “thump” noise that’s sometimes heard when a source component is turned on. The delay setting determines how long after the input source is changed on the AV receiver the trigger signal is output. It can be set to 0 sec, 1 sec, 2 sec, or 3 sec. When set to 0 sec, the trigger signal is output as soon as the input source is changed.

■ 12V Trigger Setting for Each Input Source

By default, all input sources on the 12V Trigger A Setup menu are set to Main, those on the 12V Trigger B Setup menu are set to Main/Zone 2, and those on the 12V Trigger C Setup menu are set to Zone 2.

Using the Remote Controller in Zone 2 and Multiroom Control Kits

To control the AV receiver with the remote controller while you’re in the Zone 2 room, you’ll need a commercially available multiroom remote control kit.

• Multiroom kits are made by Niles and Xantech. These kits can also be used when there isn’t a clear line

of sight to the AV receiver’s remote sensor, such as when it’s installed inside a cabinet.

Using a Multiroom Kit with Zone 2

In this setup, the IR receiver in Zone 2 picks up the infrared signals from the remote controller and feeds them through to the AV receiver in the main room via the connecting block.

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 from whom you purchased.

If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting the dealer from whom you purchased.

To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VCR/DVR] button, press the [Standby/On] 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 properly plugged into the wall outlet.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five seconds or more, then plug it 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 from whom you purchased.

Audio

There’s no sound, or it’s very quiet

• Make sure that the digital input source is selected properly (page 50).

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 18).

• Make sure that the inputs and outputs of all components are connected properly (page 18).

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wires are in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal (page 20).

• Make sure that the input source is properly selected (page 54).

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

• Check the volume. It can be set to MIN, 1 through 99, or MAX (page 54). The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment. It has a wide volume range, allowing precise adjustment.

• If the MUTING indicator is shown on the display, press the remote controller’s [Muting] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 56).

• While a pair of headphones is connected to the Phones jack, no sound is output by the speakers (page 56).

• 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 supported audio format.

• Check the digital audio output setting on the connected device. On some game consoles, such as those that support DVD, the default setting is off.

• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

• If your turntable doesn’t have a built-in phono preamp, 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 phono equalizer.

• Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged.

• Not all listening modes use all speakers (page 64).

• Specify the speaker distances (page 70) and adjust the individual speaker levels (page 71).

• Make sure that the speaker setup microphone is not still connected.

Only the center speaker produces sound

• If you use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music, or Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound is concentrated in the center speaker.

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 68).

The surround speakers produce no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound (page 64).

• Depending on the source and current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 68).

The center speaker produces no sound

• When the Mono or Stereo listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 64).

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 68).

Troubleshooting—Continued

The surround back speakers produce no sound

• The surround back speakers are not used with all listening modes. Select another listening mode (page 64).

• Not much sound may be produced by the surround back speakers with some sources.

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 68).

The subwoofer produces no sound

• When you play source material that contains no information in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 68).

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

• Check the digital audio output setting on the connected device. On some game consoles, such as those that support DVD, the default setting is off.

• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

• Depending on the input signal, some listening modes cannot be selected (pages 60-63).

Can’t select the DTS-ES Discrete/Matrix listening modes

• These modes cannot be selected when no surround back speakers are connected, or the Zone 2 speakers are being used.

• You can not always select all of the listening modes, depending on the number of the speaker connected (pages 60-63).

Can’t get 6.1/7.1 playback

• If no surround back speakers are connected, or the Zone 2 speakers are being used, 6.1/7.1 playback is not possible.

• You can not always select all of the listening modes, depending on the number of the speakers connected (pages 60-63).

The volume cannot be set to 99

• When the levels of all speakers have been calibrated (page 71), the maximum volume setting may change.

Noise can be heard

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the audio performance, so don’t do 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 67).

The DVD analog multichannel input doesn’t work

• Check the DVD analog multichannel input connections (page 28).

• To select the DVD analog multichannel input, press the [Multi CH] input selector button.

• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

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, because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which 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.

• 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.

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.

Video

There’s no picture

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 18).

• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.

• If your TV is connected to the HDMI OUT, set the HDMI Monitor setting to Yes (page 47), and select “-

- -” in the “HDMI Input Setup” on page 48 to watch composite video, S-Video, and component video sources.

• If your TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, set the HDMI Monitor setting to No (page 47), and select “- - -” in the “Component Video Setup” on page 49 to watch composite video and S-Video sources.

Troubleshooting—Continued

• If the video source is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT or HDMI OUT (page 25).

• If the video source is connected to an HDMI input, your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT (page 25).

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

There’s no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN

• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV receiver’s display, this indicates that the TV or display does not support the current video resolution and you need to select another resolution on your DVD player.

The onscreen menus don’t appear

• The onscreen menus may do not appear on a TV that’s connected to the HDMI OUT. When the HDMI Monitor Out is set to No (page 47), the onscreen menus are output at a resolution of 480i. If the onscreen menus do not appear, set the HDMI Monitor Out to Yes (page 47).

• Make sure that the video settings are correct (page 48).

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

The immediate display does not appear

• The immediate display appears on a device connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, when the Component Video Setup (page 49) is set to “---.”

• If both of the HDMI Video Setup (page 48) and the Component Video Setup (page 49) are set to “---,” the immediate display is output to a device connected to the HDMI OUT.
