Precautions

1. Recording Copyright —Unless it’s for per-

sonal use only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder.

2. AC Fuse —The AC fuse inside the HTC-V10X

is not user-serviceable. If you cannot turn on the HTC-V10X, contact your Onkyo dealer.

3. Care —Occasionally you should dust the

HTC-V10X 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 HTC-V10X 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 HTC-V10X’s rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

Memory backup

The HTC-V10X uses a battery-less memory backup system in order to retain radio presets and other settings when it’s unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no batteries are required, the HTC-V10X must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system. Once it has been charged, the HTC-V10X will retain the settings for several weeks, although this depends on the environment and will be shorter in humid climates. However, the clock and timer settings are cancelled.

For British models

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualiﬁed service personnel.

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

IMPORTANT The plug is ﬁtted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the same ampere rating as that indicated on the plug. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse. IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMPERE SOCKET. If in any doubt, consult a qualiﬁed electrician.

*2 “DTS,” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

Proprietary OMF Diaphragm speaker unit

The speaker unit features an OMF (Onkyo Micro Fiber) diaphragm. This diaphragm, which is specially constructed from advanced materials, is designed to optimize board vibration (in particular, by being light weight, highly rigid and limiting internal loss). The diaphragm also reduces low-range noise and improves transient properties. The subwoofer and speakers are housed in a wooden cabinet that improves acoustic performance.

*4 Aero Acoustic Drive technology has been developed by Onkyo to maximize subwoofer efﬁ-

ciency. The subwoofer features powerful low range sound and generates impressive super bass effects.

The SWA-V10X duct conﬁguration features a long, thin slot that allows the speaker to apply a sufﬁcient load to the air, enabling the subwoofer’s special low range capabilities. This technology also minimizes unnecessary noise, such as a wind hiss, which can affect sound quality, and broadens the low range.

In catalogs and on packaging, the letter added to the end of the product name indicates the color of the HTC-V10X. Speciﬁcations and operation are the same regardless of color.

Caring for the HTC-V10X

Caring

Wipe the HTC-V10X occasionally with a dry silica or soft cloth. For heavier dirt, after dampening a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water and wringing it out dry, wipe off the dirt. Then, dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage the ﬁnish, remove the panel lettering, or cause discoloration. If you are using a chemical cloth, always follow the instructions that come with the cloth. For dust accumulated on grilles, use a vacuum cleaner or brush it off.

Use with a TV set or computer

In general, Braun tubes used for color television sets and computers are extremely sensitive and can be affected even by the magnetism of the earth. If a speaker system is used near them, therefore, discoloration or distortion of pictures will occur. To allow use with a color television set or computer, this speaker system is provided with magnetic shielding. Even so, discoloration may still result, depending on the installation environment. If discoloration occurs, turn off the power of the television set or computer, wait for 15 to 30 minutes and then turn it on again. This activates the self-demagnetizing function of the television set or computer, improving the display condition.

Note:

If discoloration persists even after performing this remedy, move the speaker apart from the television set or computer. Discoloration may also be caused when a magnet or other magnetizing object exists near the television or computer because of the combined effect.

Precaution on use

This system can handle the speciﬁed input power when it is used for ordinary music reproduction. If the following abnormal signals are fed to the unit, however, an overcurrent may ﬂow in the internal circuits, causing burning or breakage of the wires even if the input power is below the speciﬁed rating.

• Noise produced when FM station is not tuned in

• Sound produced when fast-forwarding cassette tape deck

• High-frequency sound generated by an oscillator, an electronic musical instruments, etc.

• Oscillating ampliﬁer signals

• Special test signals produced by audio checking CD, etc.

• Sound produced when connecting or disconnecting audio connection cables (Always turn off the ampliﬁer’s power before connecting or disconnecting cables.)

•Howling when a microphone is used

What is Home Theater?

Enjoying home theater

The HTC-V10X creates a three-dimensional audio experience by moving and panning sound among multiple speakers. This enables you to enjoy the atmosphere and acoustics of theaters and concert halls (i.e., 5.1 channel surround playback) while you relax at home.

All speakers have the same features. Two speakers serve as the front left and right speakers. One speaker serves as the center speaker, and two speakers serve as the surround left and right speakers.

Depending on the audio-encoding of a particular DVD disc, you can enjoy DTS or Dolby Digital playback. You can also enjoy Onkyo’s proprietary DSP surround sound for TV or MD playback (see page 35).

Front speakers

Output complete audio signals. In the 5.1ch environment, they serve as posts that support the acoustic ﬁeld.

Subwoofer

Outputs only the bass range sound.

Center speaker

Outputs tight audio, clearly framing the acoustic ﬁeld. In movies, dialog and narration are generally output.

Surround speakers

Add a realistic theater atmosphere and convey 3D sound movements and special audio effects.

Connecting the HTC-V10X

• Connect the AV Controller (PR-155X) and the subwoofer (SWA-V10X) (page 19).

• Connect the subwoofer (SWA-V10X) and the speakers (ST-V10X) (page 20).

• Connect the AV Controller (PR-155X) and the DVD player (DV-S155X) (page 22).

• Connect your MD recorder or CD recorder to the PR-155X to play an MD or CD in a 5.1ch environment (pages 23–24).

Positioning the speakers

Refer to the explanation of each speaker’s role and the speaker position examples (page 21).

Setting up the speakers

To enjoy optimal surround sound, set up the speakers correctly (pages 62–63).

Basic positioning example and the role of each speaker

Although recommended speaker positions vary depending on the room size and wall material, this section offers a basic positioning example and explains the function of each speaker. Even if you cannot precisely follow the example below, you can still enjoy optimal surround sound by specifying the distance from the listener to the speakers (page 62). You can also adjust the volume level of each speaker to suit your preference (page 63). (Make these settings after all connections are completed.)

Using optional speaker stands or brackets

Each satellite speaker has one M5 screw hole on the back, and two 60 mm M5 screw holes on the bottom. To secure the bottom surface, use optional stands or brackets. If you use a stand or brackets, use M5 screws with an effective screw length of 7–12 mm, depending on the thickness of the stand.

Use the included wall-mount brackets (page 15).

Center speaker

Place the center speaker as close as possible to the screen and position it so that the sound is directed at the listener’s ears. The center speaker enriches the sound image by framing the sound effects and panning sound output from the front left and right speakers. In movies, generally, dialog and narration are output from this speaker.

Front left and right speakers

Place the front speakers in front of the listener.

• Position the speakers at the same height as the center speaker.

• Position the speakers so that the audio will be directed at the listener’s ears. It is recommended that you place the speakers symmetrically.

Surround speakers

Place the surround speakers to the sides or rear of the listener. The surround speakers enhance the atmosphere of theaters or halls by conveying the threedimensional movement of sound and re-producing environmental sounds (that represent the background) and special effect sounds (for example, that bring a scene to a climax).

Subwoofer

Place the subwoofer near the front speakers. The subwoofer has a great advantage in producing powerful, super bass effects. Locate the subwoofer at about one-third the width of the wall for a better bass sound.

Caution:

Do not place the satellite speakers on the edge of a desk or rack. Otherwise, they may fall, causing injury.

Subwoofer

STEREO

Sound is output from the front left and right speakers and the subwoofer.

DOLBY DIGITAL DTS (Digital Theater System)

This surround mode enables you to experience the acoustics and ambience of theaters or concert halls. You can enjoy DOLBY DIGITAL sound during the playback of DVDs, LDs, and CDs with the mark. You can enjoy DTS sound during the playback of discs with the

mark.

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II

This surround mode comprises two categories: Movie mode suitable for movies, and Music mode suitable for music playback. In Movie mode, the surround channel sound, which is usually monaural and narrowbanded, will be played in stereo, creating the impression of sound movement. Also, in this mode, two-channel music tracks will produce more natural-sounding acoustics through the surround channel. You can enjoy DOLBY PRO LOGIC II sound during playback of VHS and DVD videos that have the mark, and during some TV programs.

Music mode is suitable for stereo music CDs and live concert DVDs.

Onkyo’s original Digital Signal Processing (DSP) modes

You can use Onkyo’s original surround mode during analog or PCM playback.

HALL

This mode is suitable for classical and opera music. The center channel is cut and the surround channels are emphasized to widen the stereo image. It simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

LIVE

This mode is suitable for acoustic instrumental sounds, vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simulates the acoustics in front of a stage.

STUDIO

This mode is suitable for rock and popular music. Lively sounds with powerful acoustics will make you feel as if you are in a club.

ALL CH ST

This mode is useful for background music. The front and surround channels will create a stereo image.

FULL MONO

In this mode, all speakers output monaural audio signals. This allows you to hear a consistent sound quality regardless of your position in the room.

Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble, consult the following list.

The HTC-V10X is designed to offer the best performance when you use a subwoofer SWA-V10X, and speakers ST-V10X, and an AV controller PR-155X. Onkyo does not guarantee the performance and is not responsible for malfunctions caused by using other speakers or ampliﬁers.

Power Pages

The power to the system is not turned on.

• Make sure that the power cable is plugged into the AC outlet.

• Make sure that the multi-splitter cable is securely connected to the subwoofer and the SUBWOOFER CONTROL connector on the rear panel of the PR-155X. 19

• Unplug the power cable from the AC outlet, wait for ﬁve seconds or more, then plug the cable in again.

The power is turned off during the operation.

• If the TIMER indicator is lit on the display, the timer is functioning. Cancel the timer. 56

• The PR-155X enters Standby mode after the timer playback or recording is complete.

Audio

The sound is not heard.

• Make sure that the subwoofer’s power cable is plugged to the AC outlet.

• Make sure that the multi-splitter cable is connected correctly. Make sure that you do not mix the SUBWOOFER CONTROL jack on PR-155X’s rear panel with the jack. 19

• Make sure that the speakers are connected correctly and the speaker cables’ core wires touch the speaker connectors. 20

• Make sure that the correct input source is selected. You need to select the connected component as the input source. 32

• Check to see if the volume level is set to minimum.

• Check the digital output setting on the connected component. The default digital output setting on some DVD-compatible game components may be turned off.

• The speakers do not output sound if the headphones are connected. 34

• The optical cable may be bent or damaged.

• Check to see if the muting function is working. If the MUTING indicator is ﬂashing, the sound is muted. Cancel the muting function. 34

• Check the output setting on the connected playback component.

• Make sure that the component is connected via the correct input jacks. 22–25

• Make sure that the input setting on the connected component is correct.

Sound from the connected turntable is very soft.

• Check to see if the turntable has an internal phono equalizer. If it does not have a phono equalizer, obtain an optional one.

Playing a record on the turntable does not produce sound.

• If you are using a turntable with an MC cartridge, you will need a transformer or head ampliﬁer to boost the voltage, and a phono equalizer.

About DTS signals

• If you play a CD or LD that features DTS signals through the analog connectors, the DTS signals will be played without any conversion, resulting in noise. This noise could damage the unit and/or speakers. Be sure to play any such CD or LD through the DIGITAL INPUT connector.

• Some CDs or LDs may not play DTS signals correctly even through the digital connection. If the DTS data on such discs have been processed (e.g., output level adjustment, sampling frequency conversion, frequency response conversion, etc.), the unit may be unable to interpret such data as standard DTS data, and may output noise as a result.

• While you are playing a disc that features DTS signals, if you pause or skip tracks on the CD or LD player, noise may be generated for a short period of time. This is not a malfunction.

HTC-V10X_En.book Page 67 Wednesday, July 21, 2004 2:49 PM

Troubleshooting —Continued

About tonal quality

Sound may improve if you switch the polarity of the power cable plug. Tonal quality will improve and become stable about 10–30 minutes after you plug in the unit. Tonal quality may be damaged if you bundle the multi-splitter cable along with the speaker cables.

Home theater

Sound is not good.

• Make sure that the speaker cables are connected correctly. Check their polarity (+/–). 20

• Set each speaker’s distance and volume level. 62

• Connect the audio connection cables ﬁrmly.

No sound is output from the center speaker, surround speakers, or subwoofer.

• In some surround modes, sound is not output from these speakers.

STEREO: Sound is output only from the front speakers and subwoofer.

No sound is output from the center speaker and surround speakers.

HALL: No sound is output from the center speaker.

• Sound may not be heard clearly when certain sources play in DOLBY PRO LOGIC II surround mode.

Signals or sound effects to create realistic scenes are sometimes included on the DVDs and BS digital broadcasts that support 5.1ch. However, they are not included in CDs and standard broadcasts. Select another surround mode.

• Make sure that the speakers are connected correctly and the speaker cables’ core wires touch

the speaker connectors. 20

• No sound will be output from the subwoofer if you are playing a disc that does not feature a subwoofer audio range

(LFE).

• Adjust the subwoofer level. 40

• When monaural audio from TV or AM radio stations is being played, the sound will be output mostly from the center

speaker if the Surround mode is set to PL II Movie or PL II Music. If this sounds awkward, change the Surround mode.

Surround effects do not work.

•You cannot change the Surround mode during multi channel audio playback.

The Late Night function does not work. (The unit displays “CAN NOT.”)

• Make sure that the source features Dolby Digital.

Multi channel audio is not output.

• Make sure that you are using a DVD player that is compatible with multi channel audio.

• Select “DVD M. In” for the input source. Also, select “Multi” using the MODE button on the remote controller.

•You can select “DVD M. In” and “Multi” only when the input source is a DVD.

Radio

Noise is heard during broadcast, or too much white noise is heard during an FM stereo broadcast. You cannot tune in the broadcast station using the Auto Preset function (for only FM stations). Or, the ST indicator does not light up during FM broadcast.

• Change the location of the antenna.

• Locate the unit further from the TV or a computer. 7

• Cars or airplanes can create noisy interference.

•A broadcast radio signal may be weak if a concrete wall obstructs the signal path.

•Try setting FM mode to “Mono.” 42

• Noise may be heard when you operate the remote controller during AM reception.

• If nothing can improve the reception, install an outdoor antenna. 28

Remote controller

The remote controller does not function correctly. Or, the TV does not respond to the remote controller operation.

• Make sure that the batteries have been installed in the correct direction (polarity +/–). 11

HTC-V10X_En.book Page 68 Wednesday, July 21, 2004 2:49 PM

Troubleshooting —Continued

• Replace both batteries with new ones. (Do not mix different types of batteries or new and old batteries.) 11

• The distance between the remote controller and the unit may be too far. Or, there may be an object between them. 11

• The remote control sensor on the unit may be receiving a strong beam of light (inverter ﬂuorescent light or sunlight). 11

• The unit is placed behind the tinted windows of the audio rack or entertainment center. 11

• Make sure that the TV code has been programmed in the remote controller correctly. Find the TV’s remote control code in the remote control list and reprogram it. 64

• If you have connected an external component, set the input indication correctly. 32

System connection with other components

You cannot record.

•To perform digital recording, connect the digital output of the playing component to the digital input of the recording component.

• Make sure that all system components are connected correctly.

• Make sure that the input source setting (analog or digital) on the recording player is correct.

• Make sure that the system is connected correctly. 19–25

The system functions do not work.

• Make sure that the cable and audio connection cables are connected correctly. (Connecting only the cable does not complete the system connection.) 27

• Switch the input source indication correctly. 32

Timer playback or recording does not work.

• The clock should be set correctly. If the clock is not set, timer playback or recording does not work. Make sure you program the current time.

• When the power is turned on, make sure that the unit displays “TIMER.”

• Make sure that the cable and audio connection cables are connected correctly. 27

• Check the settings of the playback and recording components. (You cannot perform timer recording with a CD recorder.)

Others

The colors of the TV picture bleed.

• Locate the speakers far from the TV.

You are unable to set the correct speaker distance.

• The distance value may be corrected to a value suitable for the home theater environment.

The maximum volume available does not exceed 96 (or does exceed 97).

• After you adjust the balance speaker volume levels, the maximum volume setting may change.

This product uses a micro computer to perform various advanced functions. However, noise, radio interference, or static electricity could occasionally cause the unit to malfunction. In this case, unplug the power cable from the AC outlet, then plug it in again in ﬁve seconds.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

Restoring the factory default settings: To reset all the stored settings to the factory default conditions, while the power to the PR-155X is on, press and hold down the INPUT on the unit, and press STANDBY/ON. The unit displays “CLEAR,” and restores the factory default settings, then enters Standby mode.
