13. Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the appliance, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antennadischarge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.

15. Lightning – For added protection for the appliance during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.

16. Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be lo- cated in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

18. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind into the appliance through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the appliance.

19. Servicing – Do not attempt to service the appliance yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

20. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the appliance form the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged, B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

appliance, C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water, D. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

covered by the operating instructions as an improper ad-

justment of other controls may result in damage and will

often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the appliance to its normal operation, E. If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any way,

and F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in perfor-

mance – this indicates a need for service.

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT

If your DVD player or other device has component video connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video connectors on the DTR-8.2. The DTR-8.2 has two component video input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, PB, PR) directly from the recorded DVD signal or other video component and one component video output connector to output it directly into the matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly increased image quality, with incredibly lifelike colors and crisp detail.

YPB PR RCA type

A-BUS

Congratulations for purchasing a most efficient, modern-day remote controllable whole house audio system. A-BUS is a simple, efficient, elegant audio distribution system. The wiring installation time is significantly reduced as only a single CAT-5 wire is run to each location. A-BUS is easy to use, reliable, affordable, and most of all, far better sounding than conventional autoformer based volume controls.

ZONE A/B/C/D: Use a CAT-5 (eight conductor twisted) cable to connect directly from the receiver’s A-BUS RJ45 Hub to an A-BUS keypad. A-BUS outputs enable connection up to four A-BUS keypads.

Warning:

DO NOT connect A-BUS outputs to any computer or network connections (i.e. ethernet). It will cause damage to the computer or network components as 24-volt power runs on this same cable to power the amplifier stages of the amplifier module.

IR control: Another feature of the A-BUS system is the ability to control source equipment in another room where the A-BUS module is installed. If you wish to control another source from the receiver at the A-BUS keypad by remote control, connect A-BUS or another brands' IR emitter on the receiver's 40 k terminal. Then place the emitter on the remote receiver on the front panel. Typically, the emitter will work when you connect with a 40 K connector. If it does not work, try a 56 K connector.

DC INPUT: Connect A-BUS power supply. Do not use any other AC Adapter on this connector as it may cause severe damage to the receiver.

If the monitor or projector is equipped with an S video output terminal, connect it to the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO terminal with an S video cable. If it does not have an S video output terminal, connect its video output terminal to the MONITOR OUT VIDEO terminal using an RCA-type video connection cable. You do not need to connect to both the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO and MONITOR OUT VIDEO terminals. If the device has component video inputs, connect them to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.

Note:

Note that the Setup menu will only be displayed on the monitor connected to MONITOR OUT and not those connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUT jacks.

If the video connection is made at COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 1, this must be changed at the Setup menu: Input Setup → Video Setup → Component Video (see page 38).

Using an RCA-type audio connection cable, connect the audio output terminal on the satellite tuner or television to the same VIDEO 3 (or 4) IN audio jacks on the DTR-8.2. Make sure that you properly connect the left channel to the L jack and the right channel to the R jack.

If the device has a digital output jack as well, be sure to also connect it to either a DIGITAL INPUT (COAXIAL) or DIGITAL INPUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DTR-8.2 depending on the device.

10. Connecting video camera, etc. (VIDEO 5)

If the device is equipped with an S video output terminal, connect it to the S VIDEO 5 IN terminal with an S video cable. If it does not have an S video output terminal, connect its video output terminal to the VIDEO 5 IN terminal using an RCA-type video connection cable. You do not need to connect to both the S VIDEO 5 IN and VIDEO 5 IN terminals. The VIDEO 5 digital input is fixed to the OPTICAL input on the front panel.

S Video output

With the initial settings of the DTR-8.2, the VIDEO 3 input source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 3 jack, and the VIDEO 4 input source is set for digital input at the OPTICAL 4 jack.

If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be changed at the Setup menu: Input Setup → Digital Setup (see page 36).

9. Connecting a television monitor or projector (MONITOR OUT)

The DTR-8.2 is equipped with a simple Y/C separate circuit and simple Y/C mixed circuit. Since both the signal from the S VIDEO and VIDEO inputs are output to the MONITOR OUT S VIDEO output, if the television or projector is equipped with an S video input, it is unnecessary to connect the video connectors. If it is equipped with only a video input, connect it to the MONITOR OUT VIDEO output.

Before connecting the speakers, place them correctly by consulting the instruction manuals that came with them. For surround playback, the configuration and placement of your speakers are very important.

For THX surround EX playback, we recommend that you use a THX speaker system that is certified by Lucasfilm Ltd.

Ideal speaker configuration

• Front right and left speakers

• Center speaker

Produces a rich sound image by serving as a sound source for the front right and left speakers and enhancing the sonic movement.

• Surround right and left speakers

Adds three-dimensional sonic movement and produces environmental sound associated with the background and effect sound for each scene.

• Surround back right and left speakers

Required for enjoying THX Surround EX, DTS-ES Matrix 6.1, or DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 audio.

• Subwoofer

Produces powerful and heavy bass.

Surround back speakers

• Place these speakers behind the listener so that the angle between each speaker and the listener is approximately 30 degrees.

• Place these speakers so that their height is 3 feet (1 meter) higher than that of the listener’s ears.

Subwoofer

A subwoofer is recommended for the highest bass effect.

Layout with dipolar speakers

Layout with monopolar speakers

Minimum speaker configuration for surround sound playback

• Front right and left speakers

• Surround right and left speakers

The sound recorded for the center speaker and the subwoofer will be properly distributed to the front right and left speakers for optimized surround playback.

Speaker placement

Ideal speaker placement varies depending on the size of your room and the wall coverings. Here, only typical example of speaker placement and recommendations are shown. In order to create the optimum conditions for the best sound quality, be sure to place all the speakers so that the greatest difference between the distances of each speaker to the listening position is less than 6 meters.

Important points regarding speaker placement

Front left and right speakers and center speaker

• Place these three speakers at the same height from the floor.

• Place each speaker so that sound is aimed at the location of the listener’s ears when at the listening position.

Connecting antennas

To use the tuner of DTR-8.2, it is necessary to prepare the supplied FM and AM antennas.

• Adjustment and placement of the FM and AM antennas for better reception must be done while listening to a station broadcast.

• If better reception cannot be obtained, then placement of an outside antenna is recommended.

Assembling the AM loop antenna

Assemble the loop antenna as shown in the illustration.

• Refer to “Connecting the AM loop antenna” below for details on connecting the loop antenna.

Insert into the hole.

Connecting the included antennas

Connecting the FM indoor antenna:

The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During use, extend the antenna and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is received. Fix it with push pins or similar implements in the position that will cause the least amount of distortion. If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting the AM loop antenna:

The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away as possible from the DTR-8.2, televisions, speaker cables, and power cords. When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

• The DTR-8.2 is shipped with the main power (Power) switch in the on position (

). When the power cord is plugged in for the first time, the DTR-8.2 will automatically enter the standby state and the Standby indicator will light (same condition after step 2 below).

• Before you plug in the DTR-8.2, confirm that all connections have been made properly.

• Turning on the power may cause a momentary power surge, which might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit, such as computers. If this happens, use a wall outlet on a different circuit.

1. Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet.

2. Press the Power switch to set the DTR-8.2 to standby state.

The STANDBY indicator will light up.

3. Press the Standby/On button to turn on the DTR-8.2. The display and four jog dial indicators will light up and the Standby indicator will turn off.

Standby

Turn off

If you press the Standby/On button again, the receiver returns to Standby mode.

Turning the power on from the remote controller:

Before you can use the remote controller, you must perform steps 1 and 2 above and place the DTR-8.2 in the standby state.

1. Select AV Amp in the Home menu.

To change the display of the input source from TAPE to MD:

If you connected an MD recorder to the TAPE jack on the DTR-8.2, you can have “MD” appear when the Tape source button is pressed. By changing the display, if an Integra/Onkyo MD recorder z- connected, the z system functions will become enabled.

Changing the display:

Press and hold down the Tape source button until the display changes from TAPE to MD (approx. 3 seconds).

Tape

To return the display to its original setting, perform the same procedure. This setting is necessary to allow z system functions for the connected cassette tape or MD recorder.

Memory preservation

This unit does not require memory preservation batteries. A builtin memory power backup system preserves the contents of the memory during power failures and even when the POWER switch is set to off. The POWER switch must be set to on in order to charge the backup system. The memory preservation period after the unit has been turned off varies depending on climate and placement of the unit. On the average, memory contents are protected over a period of a few weeks after the last time the unit has been turned off. This period is shorter when the unit is exposed to a highly humid climate.

2. Tap the ON button.

To return the DTR-8.2 to the standby state, press the OFF button.

Calibrating the speaker levels

(1) When this sub-menu is entered, the DTR-8.2 will emit a pink

noise from the front left speaker. At this time, the Master volume automatically increases to the reference level (0dB). Remember the level of this noise and then press the

cursor button. (Note that this can be adjusted to any level between –12 and 12 decibels in 1-decibel intervals.) The DTR-8.2 will now emit the pink noise from the center speaker.

(2) Using the

and cursor buttons, adjust the volume level of the noise from the center speaker so that it is the same level as the front left speaker. You can jog back and forth between the speakers to help you compare the volume levels.

(3) Press the

cursor button again. The DTR-8.2 will now emit the

pink noise from the front right speaker.

(4) Repeat steps (2) and (3) above for the front right and other

speakers until all speakers are adjusted to the same volume level.

Notes:

• Speakers that you selected “No” or “None” for in the Speaker Config sub-menu will not appear.

• To accurately set the output levels, it is recommended to use a handheld sound pressure level (SPL) meter. Set the meter to Cweighting and slow averaging. A Radio Shack

SPL meter or equivalent is recommended. Using the internal channel noise generators, set each channel so that you read a 75 decibel sound pressure level.

Input Setup

a. Digital Input

This setting tells the DTR-8.2 which input source button on the front panel is connected with which digital input jack on the rear panel. To perform this setting, you must first select a digital input source at the front panel and then set the name of the digital input jack it is connected to here.

For example, if the input source selected at the front panel is CD and the compact disc player is connected to DIGITAL INPUT (OPT) 1, then select “OPT1” here. If the input source selected is not connected to a digital input, then select “----.”

OPT1-4: Connect your digital components to any of the DIGITAL INPUT (OPT) terminals 1 through 4.

COAX1-3: Connect your digital components to any of the DIGITAL INPUT (COAX) terminals 1 through 3.

----: Select if the input source is not from a digital input jack.

b. Digital Format

Sets the digital signal type to which priority is given during signal detection at the selected digital terminal. The default setting is “All.” If “----” is selected for this input source at the Digital Input setting, then this setting will not appear. Although you can use this default setting as is, you may change it as desired depending on the input signal format (e.g., if you know that you will always be listening to a certain input signal format from a particular input source).

All: Select for automatic detection of the input signal format. The input signal format (Dolby Digital, DTS, PCM or Analog) used by the selected input source is detected automatically to execute the required decoding process.

DTS: Select for DTS signal processing. The decoding process is executed only when DTS signals are input.

PCM: Select for PCM signal processing. The decoding process is executed only when PCM signals are input.

Notes:

• If “All” is selected and a compact disc or LD is fast-forwarded during playback, decoded PCM signals may produce a skipping sound. In such cases, change the setting to “PCM.”

• If a DTS signal is not input when “DTS” is selected, the DTR-

8.2 does not automatically switch to analog output even if

“Auto” is selected with the Audio Selector button.

• You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from

certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to the DTR-8.2 digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency, or frequency response) and the DTR-8.2 cannot recognize the signal as DTS data. Therefore you may hear noise when you play a DTS source while processing the signal.

• The outputs for the VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT, TAPE OUT, and ZONE 2 OUT, output analog audio signals. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise.

• If a compact disc or LD encoded in the DTS format is played back with “PCM” selected, only noise will be produced. Always select “All” or “DTS” when playing back DTS-encoded sources.

2-2. Multichannel Setup sub-menu

This setting is normally set to “No,” and only needs to be changed to “Yes” if a DVD player, MPEG decoder, or other component that has

a multi channel port is connected to the MULTI CHANNEL INPUT port for 5.1-channel, 6.1-channel, or 7.1-channel audio. For example, if a DVD player is connected to the MULTI CHANNEL INPUT port, then select DVD at the front panel as the input source, bring up this sub-menu, and select “Yes” for the Multichannel setting. You can only select Multichannel with the Audio Selector button when “Yes” is selected here.

Notes on DTS:

• If you play a CD or LD that supports DTS when the “PCM” setting is selected on the DTR-8.2, the DTS encoded signal will not be decoded and noise will be output. This noise could damage the amplifier and speakers. Therefore, be sure to select “All” or “DTS” and use the digital input jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) to connect the DTS source.

• If you play a CD or LD that supports DTS when “All” is selected, you may hear a noise for a short while until the DTS decoder recognizes the DTS-encoded signal and starts operating. This is not a malfunction.

• If you press the pause or skip button on the player while playing a DTS source, a short noise may be heard. This is not a malfunction. In such cases, try playing the source in the “DTS” selected.

• The DTS indicator on the DTR-8.2 lights while a DTS source is played. When playback finishes and the DTS signal transmission stops, the DTR-8.2 remains in DTS mode and the DTS indicator remains lit. This prevents noise when you operate the pause or skip button on the player. Therefore, if the source is immediately switched from DTS to PCM, the PCM signal may not be played. In this case, stop the playback of the source on the player for about three seconds and then resume playback.

b. PCM fs=96k

Set a listening mode for the input signal from digital PCM sources recorded with a sampling rate of 96 kHz.

c. Dolby D (Dolby Digital)

Digital data with AC-3 compression and a maximum of 5.1-channel surround sound. This source signal comes from DVDs and LDs that have the This source also comes from digital satellite broadcasts that support Dolby Digital.

Dialog norm

Dialogue Normalization (Dialog Norm) is feature of Dolby Digital. When playing back software that has been encoded in Dolby Digital, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display that read Dialog Norm xdB (“x” being a numeric value). Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example, if you see the message “Dialog Norm: +4” in the front panel display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the volume control by 4dB. In other words, the source material that you are listening to has been recorded 4dB louder than usual. If you do not see a message, then no adjustment of the volume control is necessary.

d. DTS

DTS (Digital Theater System) is compressed digital data with a maximum 5.1-channel surround output that allows for an extremely high-quality sound. This source signal requires a DVD player that supports DTS output and comes from DVDs, compact discs, and LDs that have the

Listening Modes

Mono

This mode is for playing old movies whose sound is recorded in monaural or playing left and right channels separately in the movies which contains the different language signals recorded into individual channels. This mode also allows you to listen to the multiplexed soundtracks on DVDs, and other media that have them.

Direct/Pure Audio

This mode delivers pure sound with minimum sound quality adjustment and filtration. The sound recorded for the right and left front channels is output to the right and left front speakers only and not output to the subwoofer. Same as the direct mode except that the pure audio mode also turns off the display window, turns off the power supply to the video circuitry, and minimizes the sources of noise. The result is highfidelity music playback true to the original source.

Stereo

This mode has all input sound is output from the left and right front speakers.

Subwoofer also can be used for playback.

T-D (Theater-Dimensional)

This mode controls the characteristics of the sound that reaches each ear to reproduce a multi-speaker setup. To receive the full effect, there is an optimum listening position (sweet spot). Refer to the explanation of the listening angle. In addition, if the reflective sound components are large, it may be difficult to achieve the desired result, so be sure to set up your system and listening position to minimize reflective sound.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II

This mode is a new generation 5-channel surround system that provides performance between the 4-channel (left front, right front, center, and monaural surround) Pro Logic Surround and the 5.1channel Dolby Digital Surround. This mode can be set to the Movie mode designed for playing movies and the Music mode designed for listening to music. In the Movie mode, the surround channels, which used to provide monaural output over only a narrow frequency range, now provide complete stereo output over the full frequency range. The result is movie viewing with a realistic feel of movement. The Music mode uses the surround channels to provide a natural sound space that cannot be provided with normal stereo output.

This mode can be used with VHS and DVD videos with the

mark and certain television programs. The Music mode

can be used with music compact discs and other stereo sources. If no surround speakers are connected, then the surround sound is

divided and output from the front left and right channels (3 stereo).

Dolby D (Dolby Digital)

Used for playing Dolby Digital source.

Input Setup

DTS Neo:6

This mode is for 6.1 channel playback of 2 channel sources such as PCM or analog sources. All 6 channel outputs are wide frequency range with a great separation between the different channels.

This mode can be set to the Cinema mode designed for playing movies and the Music mode designed for listening to music.

The Cinema mode is good for movies. Reproduced surround sound makes realistic feel of movement as 6.1 channel sources. This mode can be used with VHS and television programs with stereo sound.

The Music mode uses the surround channels to provide a natural sound space that cannot be provided with normal stereo output. This mode can be used with music compact discs and other stereo sources.

DTS

Used for playing DTS source.

DTS-ES Discrete 6.1

With the addition of the surround back channel, this new format has all 6.1 channels recorded independently for a completely discrete digital format. Since all channels are recorded independently, highfidelity surround playback with the increased feeling of a separated sound space is achieved.

DTS-ES Matrix 6.1

This format has the surround back channel matrix encoded and inserted into the left and right surround channels so that at playback the output for the left, right, and back surround channels are decoded using a high-precision matrix decoder.

THX

This mode is for playing back sources using THX. For excellent fidelity when playing back THX sounds, it is

recommended to use a THX-certified speaker system.

• THX Cinema

This is the conventional 5.1-channel THX format. This mode should be used only when playing back sources that were mixed for playback in large movie theater environments.

• THX Surround EX

“THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX” is a joint development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX division of Lucasfilm Ltd.

In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added during the mixing of the program. This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right, surround right, surround left, and subwoofer channels.

This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience, and sound localization than ever before.

When released to the home consumer market, movies that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX technology, may have a note to that effect on the packaging. A list of movies created using this technology can be found on the Dolby web site at http://www.dolby.com <http://www.dolby.com> .

This unit can play the 5.1 ch program in THX surround EX mode, even if the program is not encoded in Dolby Digital Surround EX format. For this kind of program, the sound from surround back channels depends on a program and may not fit to your taste.

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for playing back monaural recording such as old movie soundtracks. The center channel delivers the unprocessed original sound, whereas the other channels deliver the centerchannel sound processed with the appropriate reverberation. This allows you to enjoy monaural sound with the atmosphere of a movie theater.

Enhanced 7

Enhanced 7 intends to reproduce a natural surround environment by using 7-channel speakers. The sound effects moving smoothly toward the surround back. This mode is good for music and TV sports programs.

Orchestra

This mode is appropriate for classical and opera music. The center channel is cut and the surround channels are emphasized to widen the stereo image. It will simulate the natural reverberation that is created in large halls.

Unplugged

This mode is suitable for acoustical instrumental sounds, vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it will simulate the acoustics that you would experience in front of the stage.

Studio-Mix

This mode is for rock and popular music. The lively sounds are enhanced for a powerful acoustic image that simulates the feeling of being in a club or rock concert.

TV Logic

This mode gives realistic acoustics to TV programs that are aired from TV studios. It enhances the entire surround sound and clarity of the conversation.

All Ch Stereo

This mode is designed for playing background music. The front, surround, and surround back channels create a stereo image that encompasses the entire area.

Surround L/R: This outputs the sound to the surround left and right speakers as normal and outputs nothing to the surround back speaker.

Surround Back: This outputs the sound to the surround back speakers and outputs nothing to the surround left and right speakers.

Sur L/R+Back: This outputs the sound to both the surround left and right speakers and the surround back speaker.

3-3. Sound Effect

Turn on and off the various sound effects.

Parameter Setting

Initial value

a RE-EQ On, Off Off b Upsampling On, Off Off c Subwoofer On, Off On

(Ana/PCM)

d Late Night Off, Low, High Off

a) Re-EQ

Re-EQ (re-equalization) takes the edginess or “brightness” out of your home cinema sound to compensate for the fact that sound mixed for theaters may sound too bright when played back through speakers in the home environment. This can be set to either “On” or “Off.” This parameter is enabled for listening modes other than the THX listening mode.

b) Upsampling

Upsampling processes the input digital signal, or the digital signal converted from an analog input source, and converts its digital sampling frequency to twice its current frequency for an even further detailed sound reproduction. This can be set to either “On” or “Off.” When “On” is selected, the Upsampling indicator lights.

c) Subwoofer

When “Yes” is selected for the Subwoofer setting in the Speaker Config sub-menu, set this to “Off” if you do not want to have sound output from the subwoofer. This setting is only effective when the input source is Analog/PCM. If “No” is selected for the Subwoofer setting in the Speaker Config sub-menu, then this setting will not appear.

d) Late Night

Cinema sound has a vast dynamic range; therefore, to hear the quieter sounds such as human conversations, they must be played back at larger volumes. When this parameter is set to “High” or “Low,” the dynamic range of the sound is narrowed down to allow you to easily hear minute sounds at low volumes. This function is especially useful if you wish to play a movie at low volumes during the nighttime. This can be set to either “Off” or “Low,” or “High.” When this parameter is set to High or Low, the dynamic range of the sound is narrowed down to allow you to easily hear minute sounds at low volume.

Notes:

• The Late Night function is effective only on Dolby Digital encoded software.

• The depth of the Late Night effect is determined by Dolby Digital software. Some sounds may produce no or little effect.

Audio Adjust

3-4. Delay

This sub-menu gives you various ways to adjust the timing of the audio output from the speakers to give certain soundfield effects or to adjust for unwanted asynchronous video and audio tracks. This sub-menu does not appear if “Direct” is selected as the listening mode.

Parameter Setting

Initial value

a A/V Sync 0.0 ms to 74.0 ms 0.0 ms Relative Delay b Center –4.0 ms to +6.0 ms 0.0 ms c Surr L/R –4.0 ms to +6.0 ms 0.0 ms d Surr Back –4.0 ms to +6.0 ms 0.0 ms

a. A/V Sync

If a digital signal processor is connected, there may be times when the audio and video from a DVD or LD player is not output in perfect sync. The result is where the sound and picture do not match and the sound is heard too early. In such a case, use this setting to properly synchronize the audio and video. This setting can be set between 0 to

74.0 ms in 0.5-ms increments. Under normal circumstances, this can left at 0 ms. If set between 25.0 and 74.0 ms, upsampling is fixed to

24.0 ms. For input sources using the multi channel port, this setting will not appear.

Relative Delay b. Center, c. Surr L/R, d. Surr Back

Besides level and delay adjustments, the DTR-8.2 provides the ability to change or adjust the relative speaker position to fine tune the soundfield for the listener. This is accomplished using Onkyo’s unique Enhanced Spatial Positioning Algorithm. This adjustment provides 10 milliseconds of delay for the speakers, which is equivalent to moving the speaker 10 feet away. This adjustment is set up to provide –4.0 or +6.0 milliseconds (–4 or +6 feet) of adjustment to the listener’s position. Once the coarse adjustments--speaker level and distance adjustments--are made, the system is set up to provide a typical or broad surround environment. By adjusting the relative position of the speakers, we are able to alter the soundfield to be more spread out (deeper) or focused (shallower).

Note:

Surr Back will not appear if the Powered Zone 2 setting of the Speaker Config sub-menu is set to “Activated.”

3-5. LFE Level Setup

This sub-menu is for setting the LFE (Low Frequency Effect) levels included in Dolby Digital and DTS software.

Parameter Setting

Initial value

a Dolby Digital –∞, –10 dB to 0 dB 0 dB b DTS –∞, –10 dB to 0 dB 0 dB

a. Dolby Digital

The level can be adjusted to either –∞ or between –10 to 0 decibels in 1-decibel increments. For Dolby Digital input source signals, the LFE level becomes that set here. A setting of 0 decibels is recommended for optimum performance; however, if the low frequency range is too strong, lower this setting as necessary.

3-6. Mono Setup

The settings shown below are enabled when the listening mode is set to “Mono.”

Parameter Setting

Initial value

a Academy On, Off Off b Input Channel Auto L+R, Left, Right Auto L+R

a) Academy

Older monaural film mixes relied on high-frequency rolloff in presentation to sound properly balanced, so that excessive hiss from the grain structure of the film would not be heard. The highfrequency loss was typically due to a combination of optical slit loss, electrical filters, loudspeaker response, and screen loss. Some films have been transferred to video without such a high-frequency rolloff, and thus sound overly bright and hissy. This unit includes this “Academy filter,” which is based on contemporary playback practices for such films over wide-range systems. This can be set to either “On” or “Off.”

b) Input Channel

This allows you to set which input channel to use for monaural sound.

Auto L+R: Select this under normal circumstances. When the input source is center channel only, this channel is

used for monaural sound input channel. Otherwise, left and right channels are mixed and the mixed signal is used for monaural sound input channel.

Left/Right: You will need to select either left or right when playing a video source that contains bilingual data. In such a case, the left and right channels will contain different language. Select the channel with the language you desire.

3-7. Theater Dimensional Setup

Select this to modify the Theater-Dimensional (T-D) listening modes. The parameters that can be set are shown in the table below.

Parameter Setting

Initial value

a Listening Angle 20 deg, 40 deg 20 deg b Center On, Off Off c Front Expander On, Off On d Virtual Surr Level –3 dB to +3 dB 0 dB e Dialog Enhance On, Off Off

Theater Dimensional

For the best enjoyment of your home theater, it is recommended that you have at least front left and right speakers, a center speaker, and surround left and right speakers. However, if you only have front left and right speakers, you can enjoy multichannel audio by using this mode. This mode controls the characteristics of the sound that reaches each ear to reproduce a multi-speaker setup. To receive the full effect, there is an optimum listening position (sweet spot). Refer to the explanation of the listening angle. In addition, if the reflective sound components are large, it may be difficult to achieve the desired result, so be sure to set up your system and listening position to minimize reflective sound.

b. DTS

The level can be adjusted to either –∞ or between –10 to 0 decibels in 1-decibel increments. For DTS input source signals, the LFE level becomes that set here. A setting of 0 decibels is recommended for optimum performance; however, if the low frequency range is too strong, lower this setting as necessary.

Audio Adjust

a) Listening angle

The listening angle is the angle subtended by the front left and right speakers as seen from the listener. The setting of 20 and 40 degrees are only for nominal purposes, so select the setting that is closest to your actual listening angle.

Front left speaker Front right speaker

Listening angle

b) Center

For systems that have a center speaker, the center channel signal can be output from the center speaker. For instance, in systems where the front left and right speakers are small, use of the center speaker may provide a better sound space. (If your system uses a center speaker, be sure to perform the level calibration with the left and right speakers in the Speaker Setup menu beforehand.)

On: The center channel signal is output to the center speaker. Off: The center channel signal is output from the front left and

right speakers (Phantom Center).

c) Front Expander

The front expander function spreads out the sound from the front speakers for the feeling of a wide sound space.

On: Select to turn on the front expander function to simulate a wider sound space.

Off: Select to turn off the front expander function for a normal sound space.

d) Virtual Surr Level

This parameter adjusts the virtual surround level. This can be set from –3 to +3 decibels. Lowering this setting can improve the sound when the definition is unclear or when the sound feels unnatural.

e) Dialog Enhance

This parameter allows you to adjust the dialog sound level from the center speaker if it is difficult to hear.

On: Enhances the vocal ranges for the center channel signal. Off: Outputs the center channel signal at the regular level and

frequency characteristics.

a) Surr Mode (Analog/PCM)

Changes the surround mode for 2-channel analog/PCM input signals.

b) Surr Mode (D.F.2ch)

Changes the surround mode for 2-channel digital input signals.

c) DTS-ES

Selects DTS-ES mode.

Auto: When the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag (ID signal for DTS-ES), the listening mode is automatically changed to DTSES Discrete 6.1 or DTS-ES Matrix 6.1. If the DTS source has no DTS-ES flag, the mode is changed to DTS 5.1.

On: When the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag, the listening mode is automatically changed to DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 or DTSES Matrix 6.1. If the DTS source has no DTS-ES flag, the mode is forced to be DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.

Off: Even when the DTS source has the DTS-ES flag, the DTSES listening modes are not used. The DTS sources are always played in DTS 5.1 mode.

d) Pro Logic II Music Panorama

Use this listening mode to expand sound space in front of a listener to both side of the listener.

On: Turns on the PL II Music Panorama mode. Off: Turns off the PL II Music Panorama mode.

e) Pro Logic II Music Dimension

Use this listening mode to modify the sound space location forward or backward. The setting of “3” is the normal position and setting to “2” or lower moves the sound space forward and setting to “4” or higher move the sound space backward. If the recording sounds too spread out or if the surround sound is too strong, move the sound space forward to get the appropriate sound balance. In contrast, if the stereo recording is somewhat felt like monaural or has narrowness, move the sound space backward to get more surroundness.

f) Pro Logic II Music Center Width

In Pro Logic II decoding, outstanding center signal will be output only from center speaker. When the center speaker is not used, the decoder divide the center signal equally to each front left and right speakers to create “phantom” center sound image. The Pro Logic II Music Center Width mode allows you to adjust where the center sound image is heard from. Depending on your setting, the center sound image will be heard from center speaker only, front left and right speakers (as phantom center sound image), or all three speakers (center, front left and right) in various level combinations. For home use, applying some “width” to center signal will improve the level balance for center and main speakers, and effect the width of the center sound image, or “mass” of the sound. Many of sound recordings processed for stereo playback will be reproduced better by controlling the parameter for this listening mode. The recommended setting for Pro Logic II Music mode is “3.” This allows you to easily distinguish the Pro Logic II Music mode from the Pro Logic II Movie mode whose setting is automatically set to “0.”

You can choose from two ways of displaying the volume setting on screen.

Absolute: This displays the volume with a minimum of min (0) for no sound and a maximum of max (100). As a reference, the volume setting of Ref (82) is used as the 0-decibel for the relative display method.

Relative: This displays the volume as a decibel value on a scale with a designated reference point that is displayed as 0, which equals the volume setting of 82 for the absolute display method. With this display method, the minimum value is –∞, the next highest is –81, and the maximum value is +18.

b. Muting Level

This sets the attenuation level during playback when the MUTE button is pressed on the remote controller. This can be set between – ∞, –50 and –10 decibels in 10-decibel increments.

c. Maximum Volume

This setting allows you to set the maximum volume that can be output with the MASTER VOLUME dial to prevent components from being damaged by excessively loud volumes. For the absolute volume display method, this can be set between 50 and 99. For the relative volume display method, this can be set between –32 and +17 decibels. To not set a maximum volume, select “Off.”

d. Power On Volume

This sets a designated volume setting for the DTR-8.2 to be set every time that the power is turned on. This prevents the DTR-8.2 from being turned on while it is set to an extremely high volume and suddenly output very loud sounds. For the absolute volume display method, this can be set between min and max. For the relative volume display method, this can be set between –∞ and +18 decibels.

Only the bass level can be adjusted for the subwoofer (the treble adjustment is not effective). For multichannel sources, these dials will not work if the tone control is set to “Direct” or “Pure Audio.”

Listening with headphones

To listen with headphones, plug a pair of headphones with a standard stereo plug into the PHONES jack on the DTR-8.2 front panel. When you connect headphones, the unit will enter STEREO mode automatically and no sound will be heard from the speakers. When the headphones are unplugged, the DTR-8.2 returns to its original listening mode. When using the headphones, you can only use the Direct, Stereo, and Mono listening modes. If you have selected MULTI CH INPUT, you will hear sound only from the FRONT L and R channels. The headphone volume level can be adjusted at the Setup menu (see page 48). Note that the signal to the remote zone (Zone 2) will not be affected whether or not headphones are connected.

Adjusting the main volume adjusts the volume level output from all the speakers connected to the DTR-8.2 together. If headphones are connected, this also adjusts the volume heard from the headphone speakers. To adjust the volume, either press the VOL

7. Using the remote controller with Radio Frequency

Warning:

To use the remote controller with radio frequency (RF), you need an RF Receiver, which is not included in package.

By default, the remote controller uses infrared (IR) signals to operate devices. This means that you have to point the remote controller’s sending eye towards the device you are operating. IR signals have an operating distance of 10 meters (33 feet).

You can select to operate devices using radio frequency (RF) signals instead of IR signals. RF signals have an operating distance of approximately 20 meters (66 feet) in house and , unlike IR signals, is able to go through obstacles like furniture or walls. The RF signals sent out by the remote controller are picked up by the RF Receiver. The RF Receiver translates the RF signals in IR signals and sends the IR signals to the appropriate device.

Changing the remote controller’s RF IR Settings

All devices are set up by default to work with IR signals. To be able to operate one or more devices with RF signals, you have to change the remote controller’s RF IR settings for those devices.
