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-

serviceable. 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).

Some models have a voltage selector switch for
compatibility with power systems around the world.
Before you plug in such a model, make sure that the
voltage selector is set to the correct voltage for your
area.

Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY
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. 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.

6. Handling Notes

• If you need to transport this unit, use the original

packaging to pack it how it was when you origi­nally bought it.

• Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit

for a long time, because they may leave marks on
the case.

• This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm

after prolonged use. This is normal.

• If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may

not work properly the next time you turn it on, so
be sure to use it occasionally.

Memory Backup

The AV receiver 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 AV receiver
must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the
backup system. Once it has been charged, the AV
receiver will retain the settings for several weeks,
although this depends on the environment and will be
shorter in humid climates.

Speaker Precautions

Placement

• The speaker cabinets are made out of wood and are
therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and
humidity, do not put them 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 or CD player, howl­ing or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this,
move the unit away from the turntable or CD 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. To prevent this, the SKF-530F and SKC-530C
feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations,
however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which case
you should 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. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the
speakers away from your TV or monitor. 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:

Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.
Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.
High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, elec­tronic musical instrument, and so on.
Amplifier oscillation.
Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.
Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or discon­necting audio cables (Always turn off your amplifier
before connecting or disconnecting cables.)
Microphone feedback.

Connecting Speakers

Enjoying Home Theater

You can use two sets of speakers with the AV receiver: speaker set A and speaker set B.

Speaker set A (supplied speakers and subwoofer) should be installed in your main listening room and can be used with

Dolby Digital and DTS surround material. Each speaker must be positioned at a specific location in your listening room
to get the best from surround sound material. The following illustration shows the best positions for your surround­sound speakers. When speaker set B is turned on, speaker set A is reduced to 5.1-channel playback.

Speaker set B can be installed in another room. Speakers can be positioned in the standard position for stereo speakers

or however you like. Speaker set B outputs only analog input signals.

Front left and right speakers (SKF-530 FL/FR)

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 (SKB-530)

These speakers further
enhance the realism of sur­round sound and improve
sound localization behind the

Center speaker (SKC-530C)

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 (preferably
on top) facing forward at about ear
level, or at the same height as the
front left and right speakers.

listener. They are essential to
enjoy certain listening modes
(i.e., Dolby Digital EX and
DTS-ES). Position them
behind the listener about 2–
3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear
level. Make sure that the lis­tening position is within the
range of the speaker.

Subwoofer (SKW-530)

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.

Corner

1/3 wall
length

Surround left and right speakers
(SFM-530 SL/SR)

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.

To get the very best from your surround-sound system, you should also specify the distance between the listener and
each individual speaker so that the sound from each speaker arrives at the listener’s ears at the same time (see page 46).
In addition, you should set the level of each individual speaker to achieve an equal balance (see page 47.)

Connecting Speakers —Continued

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

•You can connect speakers with an impedance of

8 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.

• 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 to only positive
(+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only 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.

• 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 Speaker Set A

The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals and
speaker’s positive (+) terminals are color-coded for ease
of identification. (The negative (–) speaker terminals are
all black.) Match the color of each cable to the corre­sponding speaker terminal.

Speaker terminal Color

that the push terminals are gripping the bare
wires, not the insulation.

Push Insert wire Release

Other Models

Insert the plug fully
into the jack.

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

Use thumbtacks or something similar to

2

fix the FM antenna into position.

Thumbtacks, etc.

Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure yourself

when using thumbtacks.

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 21).

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available out­door FM antenna instead (see page 21).

Connecting Antenna —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.

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

AM loop antenna

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside
horizontally, but good results can sometimes be obtained
indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note
that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with
local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.

About AV Connections

• Before making any AV connections, read the manuals
supplied with your other AV components.

• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed
and double-checked all AV connections.

Optical Digital Jacks

The AV receiver’s optical digital jacks have shutter-type
covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and
close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.

Caution: To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical

plug straight when inserting and removing.

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, such as a DVD player, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.

Video Connection Formats

Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver
using one of the following video connection formats:
composite video, S-Video, or component video, the lat­ter offering the best picture quality.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that
the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats, so only
outputs of the same format as the input will output the
signal.

For example, if you connect your DVD player to the
S-VIDEO DVD IN, a video signal will be output by the
S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT (for your TV) and the
S-VIDEO VIDEO 1 OUT (for your VCR), but not by
any composite video or component video outputs.

optical, coaxial, and multichannel.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that
the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats.

For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or
COAXIAL digital input are not output by the analog
TAPE OUT, so if you want to record from, for example,
your CD player, in addition to connecting it to a digital
input, you must also connect it to the analog CD IN.

Connecting the Power Cord of Another Component

The AV receiver has an AC outlet on its rear panel for
connecting the power cord of another AV component.
The other component’s power switch can then be left in
the ON position so that it turns on or off when the AV
receiver is set to On or Standby.

a

c

Caution:

• Make sure that the capacity of the component that
you connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed
the stated capacity (e.g., 100 W).

Notes:

• Onkyo components with jacks should be con­nected directly to wall outlets, not the AV
receiver’s AC OUTLET.

• The socket type and capacity will depend on the
country in which you purchased the AV receiver.

Connecting Onkyo Components

Step 1: Be sure that the Onkyo component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable (RCA).
Step 2: Make the connection.

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 in Standby, it will turn on and select
that component as the input source automatically. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all components
connected via will also enter Standby. This function will not work if a component’s power cord is connected to the
AV receiver’s AC OUTLET.

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as
the input source. If the DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel input, you must press the
[MULTI CH] button (see page 35) to listen to all channels because the Direct Change function selects only the DVD
IN FRONT jacks.

Remote Control

You can control other -compatible Onkyo components by pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote
control sensor. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 53).

Notes:

• Use only cables for connections.
cables are supplied with Onkyo players (DVD,
CD, etc.).

• Some components have two jacks, you can
connect either one to the AV receiver. The other is
for connecting additional -compatible compo-

Smooth Operation in a Few Easy Steps

To ensure smooth operation, here’s a few easy steps to help you configure the AV receiver before you use it for the
very first time. These settings only need to be made once.

■ Have you connected a component to a digital audio input?

If you have, see “Assigning Digital Inputs to Input Sources” on
page 33.

■ Have you connected an Onkyo MD recorder or CD recorder to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks?

If you have, see “Changing the TAPE/MD/CDR Display” on
page 33.

TESTING THE SPEAKERS

To test that all of the speakers are working properly, press the remote controller’s [TEST TONE] button. The
test tone will be output by each speaker in turn and the name of each speaker will appear on the display. To turn off
the test tone, press the [TEST TONE] button again.

• If the test tone is not produced by a speaker, or it’s produced by a speaker other than that shown on the display,
you may have wired the speakers incorrectly and you should check your connections (see page 19).

To adjust the volume, use the MASTER VOLUME control, or the remote
controller’s [VOL] button.

The volume can be set to MIN, 1 through 79, or MAX. The AV receiver is designed for
home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.

To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT LEVEL control.

Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set
the level of the subwoofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer level to what
you think is the optimal level, and then back it off slightly.

Select a suitable listening mode and enjoy!

About the Listening Modes

With its built-in surround-sound decoders and DSP pro­grams, the AV receiver can transform your home listen­ing room into a movie theater or concert hall.

The AV receiver’s surround indicators show which
speakers are active in each listening mode.

Front left Center Front right

Subwoofer

left

Surround

back left/

Surround

Direct

The selected input source is output directly with minimal
processing for a pure sound.

Pure Audio (not North American model)

As an extension of Direct mode, this mode turns off the
display, turns off the power to the video circuitry, and
minimizes any other possible noise sources, providing a
high fidelity sound that’s true to the original. (Since the
power to the video circuitry is turned off, no video sig­nals are output while this mode is selected.)

Stereo

The selected input source is processed as a stereo signal
and output by the front left and right speakers and the
subwoofer.

Mono

Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono
soundtrack, or to select multilingual soundtracks
recorded in the left and right channels of some movies.
It can also be used when playing a DVD or other source
with multiplexed audio, such as a karaoke DVD.

Dolby Pro Logic II Movie

Use this mode with DVDs and vid­eos that bear the Dolby Surround
logo or TV shows that feature Dolby Surround. You can
also use this mode with stereo movies or TV shows and
the AV receiver will create a 5.1 surround mix from the
2-channel stereo.

Dolby Pro Logic II Music

Use this mode to add 5.1 surround to stereo sources such
as music CDs and DVDs.

right

Surround

right

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

If you’ve connected surround back speakers to the AV
receiver, Dolby Pro Logic IIx allows you to enjoy 7.1­channel playback from 2-channel or 5.1-channel music
or movies. Dolby Pro Logic IIx provides a well defined,
natural multichannel surround-sound experience, put­ting the listener in a seamless envelope of sound. The
added drama and natural sound enhance the listening
experience with CDs, movies, and games.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx has three modes of operation:
Movie mode for movies, Music mode for listening to
music, and Game mode for use with games consoles
with 2-channel stereo outputs.

Dolby Digital

With this format you can experience the
same superb sound that you get at a movie
theater or concert hall. Use this mode with DVDs that
bear the Dolby Digital logo.

Dolby Digital EX

With an added surround-back channel,
this 6.1 channel format offers a heightened
sense of space, for added realism with moving sounds,
such as those that rotate 360 degrees or pass overhead.
Dolby Digital EX material can also be played on conven­tional 5.1 channel systems, in which case the surround­back channel audio is split between the surround left and
right channels. Use this mode with DVDs that have a

5.1-channel soundtrack and bear the Dolby Digital logo.

DTS

This digital surround format offers a sur­round sound experience with exceptional
fidelity. It uses compressed digital audio
data, with six discrete channels (5.1), and the
ability to handle large amounts of audio data while
remaining faithful to the original. DTS provides very
high-quality sound. You’ll need a DTS compatible DVD
player in order to enjoy DTS material. Use this mode
with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.

DTS 96/24

This mode provides higher audio quality.
Use it with CDs and DVDs that bear the
DTS 96/24 logo.

DTS-ES Discrete

This is DTS with an added surround back
channel for 6.1 surround sound. Use it with
program material recorded in DTS 6.1 format. With the
additional surround back channel, this format offers 6.1
fully independent digital channels, providing a realistic
sense of movement and space. Use it with program mate­rial recorded in DTS 6.1, such as CDs and DVDs that
bear the DTS-ES logo.

42

HT-S780En.book Page 43 Monday, February 28, 2005 2:13 PM

Using the Listening Modes —Continued

DTS-ES Matrix

This is DTS with an added surround back
channel for 6.1 surround sound. Use it to
provide 6.1 channel surround playback
with program material recorded in DTS 5.1
format. Since DTS 5.1 program material
contains surround back channel informa­tion, all channels can be reconstructed for 6.1-channel
playback. Use this mode with CDs and DVDs that bear
the DTS-ES or DTS logo.

Neo:6

This mode provides 6.1-channel playback from 2-chan­nel sources. It offers six full-bandwidth channels with
excellent separation. There are two modes of operation:
Cinema mode for movies, and Music mode for listening
to music.

Cinema mode simulates the realistic sense of movement
that you get with 6.1-channel surround sound sources.
Use this mode with videos, DVDs, and TV shows that
feature stereo sound.

Music mode uses the surround channels to simulate a
natural sound field that cannot be produced with conven­tional stereo. Use this mode with stereo material such as
music CDs.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for use with old movies and other
mono sound 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. The surround
channels are emphasized in order to widen the stereo
image. In addition, it simulates the natural reverberation
of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instrument sounds, vocals, and jazz
music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simu­lates the stage-front experience.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock and 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

Adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV
studio. In addition, it adds surround effects to the entire
sound and adds clarity to voices.

All Ch Stereo

Ideal for background music. The front, surround, and
surround back channels create a stereo image that fills
the entire listening area.

Full Mono

In this mode, all speakers output mono audio, so the
music sounds the same regardless of where you are.

Input Channel Settings

Multiplex

This setting determines which channel is output from a
stereo multiplex source. Use it to select audio channels
or languages with multiplex sources, multilingual TV
broadcasts, and so on.

Main: The main channel is output (default).

Sub: The sub channel is output.

M/S: Both the main and sub channels are output.

Mono (2ch)

This setting determines which channel is output when
the Mono listening mode is used with a stereo source.

L+R: Both the left and right channels are output

(default).
Only the left channel is output.
Only the right channel is output.

PL II & PL IIx Music Mode Settings

These settings apply to only 2-channel (stereo) sources.

Panorama

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

On: Panorama function on.

Off: Panorama function off (default).

If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much
surround sound, move the sound field forward to
improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image
feels like it’s in mono, or there’s 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 Pro Logic II
Music or Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally
if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound
is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re 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).

DTS Neo:6 Music Mode Setting

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 3). 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 Digital EX Input Signal Setting

Dolby D EX

This setting determines how Dolby Digital EX signals
are handled. This setting is unavailable if no surround
back speakers are connected or speaker B is on.

Auto: If the source signal contains a Dolby Digital

EX flag, the Dolby Digital EX listening mode

Notes:

• The Center and Subwoofer distances can be set up to
5 ft. (1.5 m) more or less than the Front distance. For
example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the
Center and Subwoofer distances can be set between 15
and 25 ft. (4.5 and 7.5 m).

• The Surround and Surround Back distances can be set
up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) more or 15 ft. (4.5 m) less than the
Front distance. For example, if the Front distance is set
to 20 ft. (6 m), the SurrRight, Surr Left, Surr Back R,
and Surr Back L distances can be set between 5 and 25
ft. (1.5 and 7.5 m).

Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format auto­matically. However, if you experience either of the fol­lowing issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you
can manually set the signal format to PCM or DTS:

• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut
off, try setting the format to PCM.

• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing
a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.

This chapter explains how to record the selected input
source to an AV component with recording capability,
and how to record audio and video from two different
sources.

Recording the Input Source

You can record only to AV components that are con­nected to the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

See pages 22–31 for information on connecting your AV
components to the AV receiver.

CD

Remote

controller

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

Audio signals from the selected input
source are output by the VIDEO 1 OUT
and TAPE OUT jacks.

You can listen to the source while
recording. The AV receiver’s VOL­UME control has no effect on record­ing.

Recording from Different AV Sources

With this function, you can record audio and video from
different 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. For example, if you first
select the VIDEO 3 input source, followed by the CD
input source, you can watch the video from the VIDEO 3
input and listen to the audio from the CD input.

In the following example, audio from the CD player con­nected to the CD IN jacks, and video from the camcorder
connected to the VIDEO 3 INPUT VIDEO jack are
recorded by the VCR, which is connected to the
VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

Notes:

•You cannot record from AV components that are con­nected to the digital inputs. You must use analog con­nections.

• The surround effects produced by the surround and
DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

•You cannot record from an AV component that is con­nected to the multichannel input.

• If you select another input source while recording, that
input source will be recorded instead.

• While the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, the
VIDEO 1 OUT V and S jacks don’t output video sig­nals, so select another mode when recording.

Start recording on the AV compo­nent connected to the TAPE OUT
or VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

Start playback on the source AV
component.

VCRCD player

Prepare the camcorder and CD player
for playback.

Prepare the VCR for recording.

Press the [VIDEO 3] 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
playback on the camcorder and CD
player.

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

Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using the AV receiver and speak­ers, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t
resolve the issue yourself, contact your Onkyo dealer.

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 one hour. After that, reconnect the power
cord, and then 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 properly. If the AV receiver turns off
when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the
power cord, and contact your Onkyo dealer.

Audio

There’s no sound or it’s very quiet?

• Make sure that the digital input source is selected
properly (page 33). Press the [DIGITAL INPUT] but­ton repeatedly.

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed
in all the way (page 22).

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is
correct, and that the bare wires are in contact with
metal part of each speaker terminal (page 19)

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

• Check the volume. It can be set to MIN, 1 through 79,
or MAX (page 34). The AV receiver is designed for
home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range
for precise adjustment.

• If the MUTING indicator is shown on the display,
press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to
unmute the AV receiver (page 38).

• While a pair of headphones is connected to the
PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers
(page 39).

• Check the digital audio output setting on the con­nected device. On some games consoles, such as those
that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

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

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

• Specify the speaker distances and adjust the individual
speaker levels (pages 46, 47).

• The input signal format is set to PCM or DTS. Set it to
Auto (page 50).

Only the front speakers produce sound?

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,
only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 48).

Only the center speaker produces sound?

• If you use the Pro Logic IIx Movie or Pro Logic IIx
Music 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 48).

The surround speakers produce no sound?

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,
the surround speakers produce no sound (page 40).

• 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 48).

The center speaker produces no sound?

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected,
the center speaker produces no sound (page 40).

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 48).

The surround back speakers produce no
sound?

• The surround back speakers are not used with all lis­tening modes. Select another listening mode
(page 40).

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

• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly
(page 48).

• When speaker set B is turned on, speaker set A is
reduced to 5.1-channel playback, and the surround
back speakers produce no sound.

Troubleshooting —Continued

The subwoofer produces no sound?

• The level of the input signal was too low so the sub­woofer entered Standby mode. Increase the subwoofer
level slightly on the HT-R530.

• Make sure that the subwoofer’s [POWER] switch is
set to ON (not North American models).

• The subwoofer’s OUTPUT LEVEL control is set at
minimum. Turn it up.

• The subwoofer outputs no sound while only speaker
set B is on. Turn on speaker set A.

• 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 48).

Speaker set B produces no sound?

• Speaker set B outputs only analog input signals. Make
sure that the analog audio cables are connected prop­erly.

There’s no sound with a certain signal format?

• Check the digital audio output setting on the con­nected device. On some games consoles, such as those
that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

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

Can’t get 6.1 or 7.1-channel playback?

• When speaker B is turned on, speaker set A is reduced
to 5.1-channel playback.

The volume cannot be set to 79?

• When the levels of all speakers have been calibrated
(pages 39, 47), 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
(page 44).

The DVD analog multichannel input doesn’t
work?

• Check the DVD analog multichannel input connec­tions (page 25).

•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 listen-

56

ing 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 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.

Video

There’s no picture?

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed
in all the way (page 22).

• Make sure that each video component is properly con­nected.

• The AV receiver does not convert between formats. So
if your video component is connected to a component
video input, your TV must be connected to the compo­nent video output (page 23).

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

• While the Pure Audio listening mode (not North
American model) is selected, the video circuits are
turned off and the AV receiver outputs no video sig­nals.

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers
from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t
appear?

• Relocate your antenna.

•Move the AV receiver away from your TV or com­puter.

• Listen to the station in mono (page 36).

• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote
controller may cause noise.

•Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.

• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.

• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor
antenna.

Troubleshooting —Continued

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work?

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the cor­rect polarity (page 17).

• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far
away from the AV receiver, and that there’s no
obstruction between the remote controller and the AV
receiver’s remote control sensor (page 17).

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control­ler mode (page 12).

• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control
code.

Can’t control other components?

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control­ler mode (page 12).

• If you’ve connected an -compatible Onkyo Mini­Disc or CD recorder to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, for
the remote controller to work properly, you must set
the display to MD or CD (see pages 33 and 53).

• The wrong remote control code has been entered.

• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If
more than one code is listed, try each one.

•With some AV components, certain buttons may not
work as expected, and some may not work at all.

•To control Onkyo components via , point the
remote controller at the AV receiver.

•To control Onkyo components without , or other
manufacturers’ components, point the remote control­ler at that component.

Recording

The display doesn’t work?

• The display is turned off when the Pure Audio (not
North American model) listening mode is selected.

How do I change the language of a multiplex
source?

• Use the “Multiplex” setting on the “4. Audio Adjust”
menu to select Main or Sub (page 45).

The functions don’t work?

•To use , you must make an connection and an
analog audio connection (RCA) between the compo­nent and AV receiver, even if they are connected digi­tally (page 31).

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal pro­cessing and control functions. In very rare situations,
severe interference, noise from an external source, or
static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely
event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it
back in again.

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.

To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn
it on and, while holding down the [VIDEO 1] button,
press the [STANDBY/ON] button. “Clear” will
appear on the display and the AV receiver will enter
Standby mode.

Can’t record?

• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is
selected.

•To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV
receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs
with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT, or
VIDEO 1 IN to VIDEO 1 OUT).

• When the Pure Audio listening mode is selected,
recording is not possible because no video signals are
output. Select another listening mode.

Others

The sound changes when I connect my head­phones?

• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening
mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo,
Mono, Direct, or Pure Audio (not North American
model).

Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall out­let, set the AV receiver to Standby.
