Speaker Precautions

Package Contents

Placement
• The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood and is there­fore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity, do not put it in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may be damaged.
• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause dam­age, will affect the sound quality.
• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or tilted position.
• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this, move the unit away from the turn­table, CD player or Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, otherwise lower the unit’s output level.
Using Close to a TV or Computer
TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed
In such situations, try moving the speakers away
nearby. from your TV or monitor. If discoloration should occur, turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration effects. Note that dis­coloration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetiz­ing tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor.
Input Signal Warning
The speakers can handle the specified input power when used for normal music reproduction. If any of the follow­ing signals are fed to them, even if the input power is within the specified rating, excessive current may flow in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:
1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.
2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.
3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, 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).
7. Microphone feedback.
Make sure you have the following items:

About Home Theater

Enjoying Home Theater
Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. With Blu-ray Discs or DVDs, you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP lis­tening modes.

1/3 of wall position
Tip
• To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.
ij
gh
Corner position
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.
c Center speaker (SKC-680/780)
This speaker enhances the front speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. In movies it’s used mainly for dialog. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front speakers.
deSurround speakers (SKR-680/780)
These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add real­istic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equidistant from the listener.
f Subwoofer (SKW-770/780)
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The volume and quality of the bass output from your subwoofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listening room, and your listening position. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the width of the wall, as shown.
ghSurround back speakers (SKB-680/780)
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2 to 3 feet (60 to 100 cm) above ear level.
ijFront high speakers (Optional)
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height. They significantly enhance the spatial experience. Position them at least 3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front speakers (preferably as high as possible) and at an angle slightly wider than the front speakers.

Caution
• A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.
• Use screws with a head diameter of 5/16" (8 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1/8" (4 mm) or less. With hol­low walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.
(HTP-680) Leave a gap of between 5/32" (4 mm) and 5/16" (8 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown. (HTP-780) Leave a gap of between 3/16" (5 mm) and 7/16" (10 mm) between the wall and the base of the screw head, as shown. (We recommend that you consult a home installation professional.)

Using the Floor Pads for Subwoofer
If the subwoofer is placed on a hard floor (wood, vinyl, tile, etc.) and playback is very loud, the subwoofer’s feet
may damage the flooring. To prevent this, place the sup­plied pads underneath the subwoofer’s feet. The pads also provide a stable base for the subwoofer.

• 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.
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

Which Connections Should I Use?
The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.
The on-screen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to the MONITOR OUT V or the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.
Video Connection Formats
Video component can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, com­ponent video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.
Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output.
The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.
When you connect audio component to an HDMI or COM­PONENT input, you must assign that input to an input selec­tor (39).

Signal Selection
If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, component video, composite video.
However, for component video only, regardless of whether a component video signal is actually present, if a component video input is assigned to the input selector, that component video input will be selected. And if no component video input is assigned to the input selector, this will be interpreted as no component video signal being present.
In the Signal Selection Example shown on the right, video signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs, however, the HDMI signal is automatically selected as the source and video is output by the HDMI outputs.
Audio Connection Formats
Audio component can be connected by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coax­ial, or HDMI.
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver does not convert digital input signals for ana­log line outputs and vice versa. For example, audio signals connected to an optical or coaxial digital input are not out­put by the analog VCR/DVR OUT.
If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of pri­ority: HDMI, digital, analog.
