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-580 and SKC-580 feature
internal magnetic shielding. In such situations, try moving
the speakers away from your TV or monitor. If discolora-
tion 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

Easily links iPod/iPhone u]odels with Onkyo A/V Systeu]s

The speakers can handle the specified input power when
used for normal music reproduction. If any of the follow-

ing signals are ted 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, elec-
tronic 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 discon-
necting audio cables (always turn off your amplifier
before connecting or disconnecting cables).

About 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, 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.

@ Front speakers (SKF-580)

These output tile overall sound. Their role ill 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.

@ Center speaker (SKC-580)

This speaker enhances tile front speakers, making sound movements dis-
tinct and providing a full sound image. In movies it's used mainly for dia-

log. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the
same height as the front speakers.

@ Surround speakers (SKR-580)

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.

@ Surround back speakers (SKB-580)

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

provides the most satisfying results.

listener about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level.

@ Front high speakers (Optional)

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height, etc.
They enhance significantly the spatial experience. Position them at least

3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front speakers (and as high as possible).
Although it is acceptable to left and right place at an angle slightly wider
than the front speakers. Ideally they should be positioned directly above
the front speakers.

@ Subwoofer (SKW-580)

Tile subwoofer handles tile bass sounds of tile LFE (Low'-Frefluency
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.

Connecting the AV Receiver

Speaker Configuration

The following table indicates the channels you should use
depending on the number of speakers that you have.

For 7.1 -channel surround-sound playback, you need seven
speakers and a powered subwoofer.

Surround back speakers*2

Front high speakers .2.3

"1 If you're using only one surround back speaker, connect it to

the SURR BACK OR FRONT HIGH L terminals,

*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, pre-

pare for it separately, or use the surround back left and right
speakers,

If you use 4 or 5 speakers, connect each of the two sur-
round speakers to the SURR [.JR terminals. Do not con-

nect them to the SURR BACK OR FRONT HIGH L/R

or FRONT HIGH OR ZONE 2 L/R terminals.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered sub-
woofer 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 manually
(_ 35).

• 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 con-
tact with the AV receiver's rear panel. Doing so may

damage the AV receiver.

• Don't connect more than one cable to each speaker ter-
minal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

• Don't connect one speaker to several terminals.

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 imped-
ance, 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.

The speakers can easily be wall mounted by using the key-
hole slots. To prevent the speaker from vibrating against
the wall, attach two of the supplied thick rubber stoppers
to the rear of each speaker.

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.

mounting

• 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 5116" (9 mm) or less
and a shank diameter of 118" (4 mm) or less. With hol-
low walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any
power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

• 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 con-
sult a home installation profes-
sional.)

We recommend using the provided rubber stoppers to

achieve the best possible sound from your speakers. The

rubber stoppers prevent the speakers from moving, provid-

ing a more stable platform. Use thick stoppers for the cen-

ter speaker.

Description

HDM[ connections call carry digital video and audio. The
AV receiver is compliant with HDM[.

Component video separates the luminance (Y) and color
difference signals (PB/CB, PR/CR), providing the best pic-
ture quality (some TV manufacturers label their compo-

nent video sockets slightly differently).

Composite video is commonly used on TVs, VCRs, and
other video equipment.

Optical digital connections allow you to enjoy digital
sound such as PCM*, Dolby Digital or DTS. The audio

quality is the same as coaxial.
Coaxial digital connections allow you to enjoy digital

sound such as PCM *, Dolby Digital or DTS. The audio
quality is the same as optical.

Recording

This section explains how to record the selected input source to a component with recording capability, and how to record

audio and video from different sources.

Connecting a Recording Component Recording Separate AV Sources

Here you can record audio and video from completely

separate sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your

video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact
that when an audio-only input source (TV/CD) is selected,
the video input source remains unchanged.

In the following example, audio from the CD player con-
nected to the TV/CD IN and video from the camcorder

connected to the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack are recorded

by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

1

VCR, Cassette, CDR,

DVD recorder MD, etc.

• The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is

not possible while it's ill Standby mode.

• If you want to record directly from your TV or playback VCR to
the recording VCR without going through the AV receiver, con-
nect the TV/VCR's audio and video outputs directly to the
recording VCR's audio and video inputs. See the manuals sup-
plied with your TV and VCR for details.

• Video signals connected to composite video inputs call be
recorded only via composite video outputs. If your TV/VCR is
connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR must
be connected to a composite video output.

• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be
recorded.

• Copy-protected Blu-ray discs and DVDs cannot be recorded.

• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only
analog inputs can be recorded.

• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don't attempt analog
recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

AV Recording

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette

deck, CDR, MD) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.
Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g.,
VCR, DVD recorder) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT
jack.

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

You can watch the source while recording. The AV

receiver's MASTER VOLUME control has no effect
on recording.

On your recorder, start recording.

On the source component, start playback.
If you select another input source during recording,

that input source will he recorded.

Prepare the camcorder and CD player for play-

back.

Prepare the VCR for recording.

Press ADX input selector.

Press TV/CD input selector.
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.

The following audio formats are supported by the listening mode.

This is mono (monophonic) sound.
This is stereo (stereophonic) sound. Two independent audio signal channels are reproduced through two

speakers.

I g-lR'_ This is 5.1-channel surround sound. This surround system has five main channels of sound and a sixth sub-

woofer channel (called the point-one channel).
This is 7.1-channel surround sound. This is a further sound enhancement to 5.1 channel sound with two

additional speakers that provide greater sound envelopment and more accurate positioning of sounds.
This is DTS-ES surround sound. This surround system can produce a discrete or a matrix-encoded sixth

channel from existing DTS 5.1 encoded material.

Logic IIx Music listening mode. Normally, if you're
using a center speaker, the center channel sound is out-
put by only the center speaker. (If you're not using a
center speaker, the center channel sound will be distrib-
uted to the front left and right speakers to create a phan-
tom center). This setting controls the front left, right,

and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the
center channel sound.

PLIIz Height Gain
The Height Gain Control in Dolby Pro Logic IIz enables

the listener to select how much gain is applied to the front
high speakers. There are three settings, "Low", "Mid" and

"High", and the front high speakers are accentuated in that
order. While "Mid" is the default listening setting, the lis-
tener may adjust the Height Gain Control to their personal
preference.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio-
rating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking
into account human perception and room acoustics. It
does so by selecting the correct frequency response and
surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the
content sounds the way it was created at any volume
level -- not just at reference level.

• The setting is stored individually for each input selector.

• If Direct listening mode is selected, this setting cannot be

mReference Level

Audyssey Dynamic EQ TM Reference Level Offset

_0 dB:

It should be used when listening to movies.

_5 dB:

Select this setting for content that has a very wide

dynamic range, such as classical music.

} 10 dB:

Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a
wider dynamic range. This setting should also be
selected for TV content as that is usually mixed at

10dB below film reference.

} 15 dB:

Select this setting for pop/rock music or other pro-

gram material that is mixed at very high listening

levels and has a compressed dynamic range.

Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film refer-
ence. To achieve the same reference level in a home the-

ater system each speaker level must be adjusted so that

-30 dBFS band-limited (500 Hz to 2000 Hz) pink noise
produces 75 dB sound pressure level at the listening
position. A home theater system automatically cali-
brated by Audyssey EQ T_ will play at reference level
when the master volume control is set to the 0 dB posi-
tion. At that level you can hear the mix as the mixers

heard it.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ T_ is referenced to the standard

film mix level. It makes adjustments to maintain the ref-
erence response and surround envelopment when the

volume is turned down from 0 dB. However, film refer-
ence level is not always used in music or other non-film

content. Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset
provides three offsets from the film level reference
(5 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be selected when the

mix level of the content is not within the standard.

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ
Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio-

rating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking
into account human perception and room acoustics.
Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and
surround levels moment-by-moment at any user-
selected volume setting. The result is bass response,
tonal balance, and surround impression that remain con-
stant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines
information from incoming source levels with actual
output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for deliv-
ering a loudness correction solution.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with
Audyssey EQ to provide well-balanced sound for every
listener at any volume level.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume
Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large

variations in volume level between television programs,
commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of
movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume
setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of
program material is being perceived by listeners in real
time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. When-
ever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary
rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired
playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic
range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into
Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is
adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response,
tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity
remain the same whether watching movies, flipping
between television channels, or changing from stereo to

surround sound content.

About HDMI

Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital
interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-ray Disc players/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video

components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With
HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM,
multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)*1, so TVs and displays with
a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays,

resulting in no picture.)
The AVreceiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, so only HDCP-compatible components can

display the picture.

Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, Deep Color, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution

I The AV receiver's HDMI interface is based on the following:

Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DSD and Multichannel PCM

Supported Audio Formats

• 2-channel linear PCM (32-192 kHz, 16120124bit)

• Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32-192 kHz, 16120124 bit)

• Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD
Master Audio)

Your Blu-ray Disc player/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.

About Copyright Protection

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, a copy-protection system for digital
video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

"1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 ill 1999.
*2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by [ntel for HDM[/DVL It's

designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

"3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by [ntel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this

open industry group's objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance
PCs and digital displays.

• The HDM[ video stream is compatiblewith DVI (Digital Visual [nterface), soTVs and displays with a DVI input can beconnected by
using an HDM[-to-DVI adaptercable. (Note thatDVI connections only carry video, so you'll need to make a separate connection for
audio.) However,reliable operation with such an adapteris not guaranteed. In addition, video signals froma PC are not supported.

• The HDM[ audio signal (samplingrate, bit length,etc.) may berestricted by the connected sourcecomponent. If the picture is poor or
there's no sound from a componentconnected viaHDM[, checkits setup. Refer to theconnected component's instruction manual for

details.

Using an RIHD-compatible TV, Player, or Recorder

1-411-ID, which stands for Remote Interactive over HDMI, is the name of the system control function found on Onkyo

components. The AV receiver can be used with CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), which allows system control over
HDMI and is part of the HDMI standard. CEC provides interoperability between various components, however, opera-

tion with components other than I-'411-lD-compatible components cannot be guaranteed.
m About _JHD-compatible components

The following components are I-'411-lD-compatible. (As
of February 2010) See the Onkyo web site for latest infor-

marion.

ers (only when used together with Toshiba REGZA-
LINK compatible TV)

• Sharp players and recorders (only when used together
with Sharp TV)

Models other than those mentioned above may have some
interoperability if compatible with CEC which is part of the
HDM[ Standard, but operation cannot be guaranteed.

• Do not connect the f"-tll-IIO-compatible component more than
the following number to the HDM[ input terminal so that the
linked operations work properly.

-Blu-ray Disc/DVD player is up to three.

-Blu-ray Disc recorder/DVD recorder/Digital Video Recorder is
up to three.

-Cable/Satellite Set-top box is up to four.

• Do not connect the AV receiver to the other AV receiveffAV
amplifier via HDME

above-mentioned is connected, the linked operations are not
guaranteed.

N Operations that can be performed with _.JHD

connection

For r_HD-compatible TV
The following linked operation is possible by connecting

the AVreceiver to an I-'411-lD-compatible TV.

• The AV receiver will enter Standby mode when the
power of the TV is turned to Standby.

• You can set on the menu screen of the TV to either out-
put the audio from the speakers connected to the AV

receiver, or from the speakers of the TV.

• It is possible to output the video/audio from the antenna
or from the input jack of the TV from the speakers con-
nected to the AV receiver. (A connection such as optical

digital cable or similar is required above the HDMI
cable.)

• Input to the AV receiver can be selected with the remote
controller of the TV.

• Operations such as volume adjustment or similar for the
AVreceiver can be performed from the remote controller

of the TV.

For r_l-ll_-compatible players/recorders
The fonowing link operation is possible by connecting the

AVreceiver to an r4lHD-compatihle player/recorder.

• When the playback is started on the player/recorder,
input of the AV receiver win switch to the HDMI input
of the player/recorder that is playing back.
