Precautions

1.Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder.

2.AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not user-ser- viceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact your Onkyo dealer.

3.Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

4.Power WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug is readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.

Pressing ON/STANDBY to select Standby mode does not fully shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use the unit for an extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.

5.Preventing Hearing Loss Caution

Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.

6.Batteries and Heat Exposure Warning

Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not be exposed to excessive heat as sunshine, fire or the like.

7.Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never handle this unit or its power cord while your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets inside this unit, have it checked by your Onkyo dealer.

8.Handling Notes

If you need to transport this unit, use the original packaging to pack it how it was when you originally bought it.

Speaker Precautions

 

Package Contents

 

 

 

Placement

The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood and is therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity, do not put it in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.

Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may be damaged.

Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause damage, will affect the sound quality.

Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or tilted position.

If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable, CD player or Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, otherwise lower the unit’s output level.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed nearby. In such situations, try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. If discoloration should occur, turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration effects. Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetizing tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor.

Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the specified input power when used for normal music reproduction. If any of the following signals are fed to them, even if the input power is within the specified rating, excessive current may flow in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:

1.Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.

2.Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.

3.High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, electronic musical instrument, and so on.

4.Amplifier oscillation.

5.Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.

6.Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or disconnecting audio cables (always turn off your amplifier before connecting or disconnecting cables).

7.Microphone feedback.

Make sure you have the following items:

*In catalogs and on packaging, the letter at the end of the product name indicates the color. Specifications and operations are the same regardless of color.

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 Blu-ray Discs or DVDs, you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.

Speaker illustrations are based on HTP-680.

Corner position

1/3 of wall position

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.

a b Front speakers (SKF-680/780)

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.

cCenter speaker (SKC-680/780)

This speaker enhances the front 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 speakers.

d e Surround speakers (SKR-680/780)

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 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.

fSubwoofer (SKW-770/780)

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.

g h Surround back speakers (SKB-680/780)

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level.

i j Front high speakers (Optional)

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height. They significantly enhance the spatial experience. Position them at least 3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front speakers (preferably as high as possible) and at an angle slightly wider than the front speakers.

Connecting the AV Receiver

Attaching the Speaker Bases

SKF-780

Before you connect the speakers, attach the supplied speaker base to each SKF-780.

1.Turn the speaker upside down with the protection cover attached.

2.Align the speaker base while the arrow mark is headed in the same direction as the speaker’s face. Be careful not to tip over the speaker.

3.Align the screw holes on the speaker base with those on the bottom of each speaker, and affix the speaker base using the supplied screws. Recommended torque is 10 kgf·cm (9 lbf·in).

Be careful not to tip over the speaker.

4.Turn the speaker right side up.

5.Remove the protection cover.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:

Attach the speaker bases in a manner that will not allow the speakers to tip over.

Be sure to tighten the screws when you attach the speaker bases.

Attach the speaker bases on a flat, level, and stable floor.

After you attach the speaker bases, make sure that the speakers stand upright and are stable.

Wall Mounting

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots.

Front, Surround and Surround Back

Speakers

To mount the front, surround and surround back speakers vertically, use the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw that’s securely screwed into the wall.

SKF-680, SKR-680, SKB-680

To prevent the speaker from vibrating against the wall, attach two of the supplied rubber stoppers to the rear of each speaker.

SKC-780

Keyhole slot for wall mounting

Caution

A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.

Use screws with a head diameter of 5/16" (8 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1/8" (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

(HTP-680) Leave a gap of between 5/32" (4 mm) and 5/16" (8 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

(HTP-780) Leave a gap of between 3/16" (5 mm) and 7/16" (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown.

(We recommend that you consult a home installation professional.)

Using the Stoppers for a More Stable Platform

We recommend using the provided stoppers to achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, providing a more stable platform.

SKF-680, SKR-680, SKB-680, SKC-680

Use rubber stoppers for the speakers.

*2 Front high and surround back speakers cannot be used at the same time.

*3 When you connect the front high left and right speakers, prepare for it separately, or use the surround back left and right speakers.

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. You can do this automatically ( 28) or manually ( 40).

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. 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 amp protection circuit may be activated.

Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.

Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.

Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.

Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the AV receiver’s rear panel. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

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.

To use ARC function, you must select the TV/CD input selector, your TV must support ARC function and “HDMI Control (RIHD)” is set to “On”( 49).

Tip

To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers:

Set the “TV Control” setting to “On” ( 50) for an p-compatible TV.

Set the “Audio TV Out” setting to “On” ( 49) when the TV is not compatible with por the “TV Control” setting to “Off”.

Set your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player’s HDMI audio output setting to PCM.

To listen to TV audio through the AV receiver, see “Connecting Your Components” ( 20).

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.

When the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” ( 49) to hear from your TV’s speakers, by controlling the AV receiver’s volume, the sound will be output from the AV receiver’s speakers, too. When the “TV Control” setting is set to “On” ( 50) to hear from speakers of p-compatible TV, by controlling the AV receiver’s volume, the AV receiver’s speakers will produce sound while the TV’s speakers are muted. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers producing sound, change the settings, change your TV’s settings, or turn down the AV receiver’s volume.

If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer as well as a phono preamp. See your turntable’s manual for details.

When you connect to both AUX INPUT AUDIO jacks and AUX INPUT LINE IN jack at the same time, AUX INPUT LINE IN jack will be given a higher priority.

The AV receiver can output audio and video signals from the AUX INPUT jacks to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

With connection D, you can listen and record audio from the external components while you are in Zone 2. You can listen and record audio from the external components in the main room; you can listen to the audio in Zone 2 as well.

With connection C, you can enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. (To record or listen in Zone 2 as well, use C and D.)

With connection D, if your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player has both the main stereo and multichannel outputs, be sure to connect the main stereo.

How to record the video

With the connections described above, you cannot record the video through the AV receiver. To make a connection for

video recording ( 32).

Connecting Onkyo uComponents

Step 1:

Make sure that each Onkyo component is connected with an analog audio cable (connection D in the hookup examples) ( 20).

Step 2:

Make the uconnection (see illustration below).

Step 3:

If you’re using an RI Dock, or cassette tape deck, change the Input Display ( 27).

With u(Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:

System On/Auto Power On

When you start playback on a component connected via uwhile the AV receiver is on Standby, the AV receiver will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source.

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via u, the AV receiver automatically selects that component as the input source.

Remote Control

You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to control your other u-capable Onkyo components, pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first ( 61).

Note

Use only ucables for uconnections. ucables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD, CD, etc.).

Some components have two ujacks. You can connect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for connecting additional u-capable components.

Connect only Onkyo components to ujacks. Connecting other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

Some components may not support all ufunctions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Onkyo components.

While Zone 2 is on, the System On/Auto Power On and Direct Change ufunctions do not work.

Do not use RI connections if you use HDMI Control (RIHD) ( 49).

Connecting Antenna

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna.

The AV receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.

Caution

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

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Push.

Insert wire.

Release.

Assembling the AM loop antenna.

Thumbtacks, etc.

AM loop antenna (supplied)

Indoor FM antenna (supplied)

Note

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

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

Tip

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

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

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 components. Use the following sections as a guide.

The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to the MONITOR OUT V or the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.

Video Connection Formats

Video component can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output.

The composite video and component video outputs pass

through their respective input signals as they are.

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 on the right, video signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs, however, the HDMI signal is automatically selected as the source and video is output by the HDMI outputs.

Audio Connection Formats

Audio component can be connected by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, 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 VCR/DVR OUT.

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, digital, analog.
