Memory Preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation batteries. A built-in memory power back-up 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 back-up 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.

Audio equipment connections
1. DIGITAL INPUT connectors
• If your CD player has a digital output connector, connect it to a proper DIGITAL INPUT connector for clear and dynamic sound play.
• This unit provides four digital input connectors to connect CD players, MD recorders, DAT decks, etc. having a digital output connector. When using these connectors, connect the unit also via the audio con­nection cables. You should also note that the signals you can record are analog signals only.
• The digital inputs, COAXIAL 1, 2 and OPTICAL 1, 2 can be assigned to individual input selector buttons, so when an input selector button is pressed, the assigned digital input is used instead of the corresponding analog input. (See pages 23,29.)
2. OPTICAL DIGITAL OUTPUT connector (DTR-7 only)
If you have a digital recorder, such as an MD recorder, DAT, and CD-R (Compact Disc Recorder), con­nect the recorder’s digital input connector to this connector. In this case, always use commercially avail­able optical digital audio cables.
3. Turntable
This receiver is designed for use with turntables using moving magnet cartridges. Connect a ground (or earth) wire to GND terminal. With some players, connecting a ground wire results in larger noise. If so, do not connect any ground wire.

Connecting speakers

The DTR-7/6 allows you to connect two speaker systems. Before connecting the speakers, place them correctly by consulting the instruction manuals that came with your speakers. For surround playback (see “Using the listening modes” on page 34), the configuration and placement of your speakers are very important. For Home THX cinema surround playback, we recommend that you use a THX speaker system that is certified by Lucasfilm Ltd. (such as Onkyo HTS SYSTEM-2).
Ideal speaker configuration:
• Right and Left front speakers
• Center speaker
Produces a rich sound image by serving as a sound source for the Right and Left front speakers and enhancing the sonic move­ment.
• Right and Left surround speakers
Adds three-dimensional sonic movement and produces environ­mental sound associated with the background and effect sound for each scene.
• Subwoofer
Produces powerful and heavy bass.
1
2

Minimum speaker configuration for surround sound playback:
• Right and Left front speakers
• Right and Left surround speakers
The sound recorded for the center speaker and the subwoofer will be properly distributed to the Right and Left front speakers and the Right and Left surround 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.
Speaker systems Left and Right front 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 audience's ears at the listening position.
Left and Right surround speakers
• Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter higher than that of the audience's ears.
Subwoofer
To get the highest bass effect, place a subwoofer. You can place your subwoofer anywhere in your room because the placement affects very little the perceived sound.
