(Taiwanese models) The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and you should attach them to the positive

(+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all you need to do is to match the color of each label to the corresponding speaker terminal.

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.

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.

• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

• 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.

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.

Tip

If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

Note

*1 When USB input is selected, you can input video signals from the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack. Video signals input from AUX INPUT VIDEO will be output from the MONITOR OUT jack.

*2 Do not connect the AV receiver’s USB port to a USB port on your computer. Music on your computer cannot be played through the AV receiver in this way.

*3 Connect a turntable (MM) that has a phono preamp built-in. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have it, you’ll need a commercially available phono preamp.

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.

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

With connection F, you can listen to and record audio from external components while you are in Zone 2.

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

How to record a video source

With the connections described above, you cannot record the videos through the AV receiver. See “Recording” about connections for video recording ( page 35).

En-15

Connecting Onkyo RI Components

1

Make sure that each Onkyo component is

 

connected with an analog audio cable (connection

 

F in the hookup examples) ( page 15).

2

Make the uconnection (see the illustration).

3

If you’re using an RI Dock or cassette tape deck,

 

change the Input Display ( page 35).

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 ( page 54).

Using Basic Functions

Using the Automatic Speaker Setup

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ® automatically determines the number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone. Audyssey 2EQ can be used with Audyssey Dynamic EQ® and Audyssey Dynamic Volume® ( pages 42, 43). Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers.

Audyssey 2EQ offers two ways of measuring: the “Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey 2EQ Full Calibration”.

Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from one position to perform the speaker setting only.

Audyssey 2EQ Full Calibration” uses the measurement from three positions to correct room response in addition to the speaker setting.

The more positions are used in measuring, the better the listening environment will become. We recommend using a measurement from three positions to create the best listening environment.

The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes about 10 minutes.

Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

Measurement procedure

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey 2EQ takes measurements at up to three positions within the listening area. Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce inaccurate results.

aFirst measurement position

Also referred to as the Main Listening Position, this refers to the most central position where one would normally sit within the listening environment.

Audyssey 2EQ uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

bSecond measurement position

The right side of the listening area.

cThird measurement position

The left side of the listening area.

The distances from position a to b and a to c must be at least 1 meter (3.3 ft.).

FThis 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.

GThis 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.

HThis is Dolby Digital EX surround sound. This provides a center back surround channel from 5.1- channel sources.
