About Home Theater

Thanks to the AV controller’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 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. You can also enjoy THX Surround EX (THX-certified THX speaker system recommended).

Enjoying Home Theater

Corner position

1/3 of wall position

Surround back left and right speakers

These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, THX Surround EX, etc. They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound localization behind the listener. Position them behind the listener about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.

Surround left and right speakers

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 equally spaced from the listener.

Center speaker

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. For 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.

Subwoofer

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 way along the front wall, as shown.

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.

Front left and right speakers

These output the main 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 equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

Connecting the AV Controller

The AV controller is designed to be used with a separate multichannel power amplifier. You connect the AV controller’s PRE OUT jacks to the amplifier’s inputs, and connect your speakers to the amplifier’s speakers terminals. Speaker settings such as crossover frequency and distance are set on the AV controller.

Speaker Configuration

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

The following table shows which channels you should use based on the number of speakers you have.

* If you’re using only one surround back speaker, use the SURR

BACK L output.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a powerful and solid bass.

To get the best from your surround-sound system, you must set the speaker settings. You can do this automatically (see page 58) or manually (see page 89).

Using Dipole Speakers

You can use dipole speakers for the surround left and right and surround back left and right speakers. Dipole speakers output the same sound in two directions.

Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them to indicate how they should be positioned. The surround left and right dipole speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward your TV or screen, while the surround back left and right dipolar speakers should be positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R outputs can be used with front speakers and surround back speakers, respectively, or bi-amped to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds for a pair of front speakers that support bi-amping, providing improved bass and treble performance.

• When bi-amping is used, the AV controller is able to feed up to 5.1 speakers in the main room.

• For bi-amping, the FRONT L/R outputs feed the front speakers’ woofer terminals. And the SURR BACK L/R outputs feed the front speakers’ tweeter terminals.

• Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections shown below and turned on the AV controller, you must set the “Speaker Type” setting to “Bi-Amp” to enable bi-amping (see page 55).

Important:

• When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers’ tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals.

• Bi-amping can only be used with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna, and how to connect commercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas.

The AV controller won’t pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.

■ North American Model

■ Other Models

Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna

The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 27).

Connecting the AM Loop Antenna

The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.

Connecting Antenna

Attach the FM antenna, as shown.

■ North American Model

■ Other Models

Once your AV controller 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.

AM ANTENNA push terminals

Connecting the AV Controller—Continued

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 27).

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.

■ North American Model

■ Other Models

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed horizontally outside, 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.

■ Other Models

Once your AV controller 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 controller, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

Cable Jack Description

HDMI

HDMI connections can carry uncompressed standard- or high-definition digital video and audio and offer the best picture and sound quality.

Component video cable

Component video separates the luminance (Y) and color difference signals (P

R, PB), providing the best

picture quality. (Some TV manufacturers label their component video jacks slightly differently.)

S-Video cable

S-Video separates the luminance and color signals and provides better picture quality than composite video.

Composite video cable

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

Audio

Optical digital audio cable

This offers the best sound quality and allows you to enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. The audio quality is the same as for coaxial.

Coaxial digital audio cable

This offers the best sound quality and allows you to enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. The audio quality is the same as for optical.

Balanced XLR cable

This cable carries analog audio. Balanced XLR cables are used for better noise immunity and longer cable runs.

Analog audio cable (RCA)

This cable carries analog audio. It’s the most common connection format for analog audio and can be found on virtually all AV components.

Connecting the AV Controller—Continued

By connecting both the audio and video outputs of your DVD player and other AV components to the AV controller, you can switch the audio and video signals simultaneously simply by changing the input source on the AV controller.

The AV controller 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, you must make an audio connection and a video connection.

Video Connection Formats

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

The AV controller can upconvert and downconvert between video formats, depending on the “Monitor Out” setting, which generally determines whether video signals are upconverted for the component video output or the HDMI outputs.

For optimal video performance, THX recommends that video signals pass through the system without upconversion (e.g., component video input through to component video output). It’s also recommended that you set the “Immediate Display” preference to “Off” (see page 109), the “Picture Adjust” setting to the default (see page 104), and the “Resolution” setting to “Through” (see page 49).

■ “Monitor Out” Setting Set to “HDMI Main” or “HDMI Sub”

With the “Monitor Out” setting set to “HDMI Main” or “HDMI Sub” (see page 46), video input signals flow through the AV controller as shown, with composite video, S-Video, and component video sources all being upconverted for the respective HDMI output. Use the

“HDMI Main” or “HDMI Sub” setting if you connect the AV controller’s HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB, respectively, to your TV.

■ “Monitor Out” Setting Set to “Analog”

With the “Monitor Out” setting set to “Analog” (see page 46), video input signals flow through the AV controller as shown, with composite video and S-Video sources being upconverted for the component video output. Use this set-

ting if you connect the AV controller’s COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT 1 or 2 to your TV.

Composite video is upconverted to S-Video and S-Video is downconverted to composite video. Note that these conversions only apply to the MONITOR OUT V and S outputs, not the VCR/DVR OUT V and S outputs.

The composite video, S-Video, and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

This signal flow also applies when the Monitor Out “Resolution” setting is set to “Through” (see page 49).

• If you want to record directly from your TV or another video source without going through the AV controller, connect the audio and video outputs from your TV or other video component directly to the recording VCR/DVD recorder’s audio and video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV or VCR/DVD recorder for details.

• Video signals connected to composite video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. So if your source TV or VCR is connected to a composite video input, the recording VCR/DVR must be connected to the VCR/DVR OUT V jack. Likewise, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via the VCR/DVR OUT S jack. So if your source TV or VCR is connected to an S-Video input, the recording VCR/DVD recorder must be connected to the VCR/DVR OUT S jack.

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, 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, or multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)

, 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 AV controller uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)

, so only HDCP-compatible components

will display a picture.

Supported Audio Formats

• 2-channel linear PCM (32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Multichannel linear PCM (7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)

• Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution, DTS-HD Mas-

ter Audio)

Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.

About Copyright Protection

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

Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the AV controller’s HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.

*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 in 1999. *2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. 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 Intel, 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.

Connecting Components with HDMI

The AV controller’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard: Repeater System, Deep Color, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD,

Dolby Digital Plus, SA-CD, and Multichannel PCM

Connecting the AV Controller—Continued

Making HDMI Connections

■ Video Signals

Digital video signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are normally output by the HDMI MAIN OUT and SUB OUT for display on your TV. Composite video, S-Video, and component video sources can be upconverted for the HDMI outputs. See “Video Connection Formats” on page 29 for more information.

■ Audio Signals

Digital audio signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the speakers and headphones connected to the AV controller. Normally, they are not output by the HDMI outputs, unless the “Audio TV Output” setting is set to “On” (see page 111).

To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the “Audio TV Output” setting to “On” (see page 111), and set your DVD player’s “Audio TV Output” setting to PCM.

Notes:

• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

• When listening to an HDMI component through the AV controller, set the HDMI component so that its video can be seen on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI component connected to the AV controller). If the TV power is off or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no sound from the AV controller or the sound may be cut off.

• When the “Audio TV Output” setting is set to “On” (see page 111), or “TV Control” is set to “Enable” (see page 112) and you’re listening through your TV’s speakers, if you turn up the AV controller volume control, the sound will be output by the AV controller’s speakers. To stop the AV controller’s speakers producing sound, change the settings, change your TV’s settings, or turn down the AV controller’s volume.

• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

Step 1:

Use HDMI cables to connect the AV controller’s HDMI jacks to your HDMI-compatible Blu-ray player/DVD player, TV, projector, and so on.

Step 2:

Assign each HDMI IN to an input selector. See “Video Input Setup” on page 50.

■ If Your iPod Doesn’t Support Video:

Connect your RI Dock’s audio output jacks to the AV controller’s AUX 1 IN L/R jacks. (Onkyo DS-A2X hookup shown below.)

■ If you have an Onkyo DS-A1 RI Dock

• Connect its video output jack to the AV controller’s AUX 1 jack.

The AV controller has AC outlet on its rear panel that can be used to connect the power cords of other components that you intend to use with the AV controller. These components can then be left turned on so that they turn on and off as and when the AV controller is set to On or Standby.

Caution:

• Make sure that the total capacity of the components that you connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed the stated capacity.

Notes:

• When the “HDMI Control” setting is set to “Enable” (page 111), the AC outlet are on all the time regardless of whether the AV controller is set to On or Standby, or Ready mode in this case, so any components connected to them cannot be turned on or off automatically.

• Onkyo components connected via u should be connected directly to a wall outlet, not an AC OUTLET on the AV controller.

Connecting an RI Dock

Not all iPod models output video. For information about which iPod models are supported by the RI Dock, see the RI Dock’s instruction manual.

With u (Remote Interactive), you can use the following special functions:

Auto Power On/Standby

When you start playback on a component connected via u, if the AV controller is on Standby, it will automatically turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV controller is set to Standby, all components connected via u will also go on Standby. This function will not work with components that are connected to an AC OUTLET on the AV controller.

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected via u, the AV controller automatically selects that component as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV controller’s multichannel input, you’ll need to press the [AUDIO SEL] button repeatedly and select Multich to hear all channels (see page 74), as the Direct Change u function selects the DVD IN L/R jacks.

Remote Control

You can use the AV controller’s remote controller to control your other u-capable Onkyo components. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first (see page 123). And remember to point the remote controller at the AV controller and not the other component.

Notes:

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

• Some components have two u jacks. You can connect either one to the AV controller. The other jack is for connecting additional u-capable components.

• Connect only Onkyo components to u jacks. Connecting other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

• Some components may not support all u functions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Onkyo components.

• While Zone 2 or Zone 3 is on, the Auto Power On/Standby and Direct Change u functions do not work.

• Before connecting the power cord, connect all your speakers and AV components.

• Connect the power cord to the AV controller’s AC INLET.

• Plug the other end of the power cord into a suitable wall outlet.

• Turning on the AV controller may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV controller into a different branch circuit.

Connecting Onkyo u Components

Step 1: Make sure that each Onkyo component is connected to the AV controller with an analog audio cable (RCA). Step 2: Make the necessary u connections (see illustration below).

First Time Setup

This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV controller for the very first time.

On the “Monitor Out” settings, you can select whether or not to have the video sources’ images output through the HDMI OUT, as well as whether to have the onscreen setup menu output through the HDMI OUT or through an analog output.

If you connect your TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT 1 or 2, set the “Monitor Out” setting to “Analog” so that the onscreen setup menus are displayed and composite video and S-Video sources are upconverted* and output by the COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT 1 or 2.

If you connect your TV to the HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB, set the “Monitor Out” setting to “HDMI Main” or “HDMI Sub” so that the onscreen setup menus are displayed and composite video, SVideo, and component video sources are upconverted* and output by the HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB. The onscreen setup menus are displayed on the HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB only.

You can specify the output resolution for the HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB and COMPONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT and have the AV controller upconvert the picture resolution as necessary to match the resolution supported by your TV (see page 104).

Note:

See page 29 for charts showing how the “Monitor Out” and “Resolution” (see pages 49, 50) settings affect the video signal flow through the AV controller.

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey MultEQ XT 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 MultEQ

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. Enabling Audyssey MultEQ

XT allows you to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ™, which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level.

Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers.

Press the input selector button for the input selector that you want to assign.

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. Whenever 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 Audyssey Dynamic EQ

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating 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 constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ to provide wellbalanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

Measurement Positions

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audysssey MultEQ

takes measurements at up to eight positions within the listening area.

■ 1st measurement position

This is the center position of your listening area, or the listening position if there’s only one listener.

■ 2nd–8th measurement positions

These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to eight positions.

The following examples show some typical home theater seating arrangements. Choose the one that best matches yours, and position the microphone accordingly when prompted.

• If the AV controller is muted, it will be unmuted automatically when the automatic speaker setup starts.

• Automatic speaker setup cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

• It takes about 15 minutes to complete the automatic speaker setup for three positions. Total measurement time varies depending on the number of positions and speakers.

• Do not disconnect the speaker setup microphone during the automatic speaker setup, unless you want to cancel the setup.

• Do not connect or disconnect any speakers during the automatic speaker setup.

Place the speaker setup microphone at measurement point 1

(page 59), and connect it to the SETUP MIC jack.

Notes:

•

Before starting Audyssey MultEQ® XT Automatic Speaker Setup, arrange the room and connect the speakers as you would for enjoying movies. Changes to the room after auto setup requires you run the auto setup again, as room EQ characteristics may have changed.

• When starting the automatic speaker setup, do not stand between the speakers and microphone, and avoid obstacles blocking the path between speakers and microphone. This will produce inaccurate results.

• 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 innacurate results.

• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices.

• Cell phones should be turned off or placed away from all audio electronics during the measurement process as Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) may cause measurement disruptions (even if the cell phone is not in use).

Reviewing the Results Changing the Speaker Settings Manually

In rare situations, proper measurements taken may not be obtainable by the by the automatic speaker setup. For example, there may be too much noise in the room. If running the speaker setup a second time is still unsuccessful you will have to set the speaker settings manually. (see pages 89–95).

Notes:

• For THX-certified speakers, the 80 Hz (THX) crossover frequency is recommended. If you use the automatic speaker setup, you’ll need to manually select 80 Hz (THX) for each THX-certified speaker (see page 89).

• Because of the complexities of low-frequency sounds and the way they interact with a room, THX recommends setting the subwoofer level and distance manually.

Using a Powered Subwoofer

If you’re using a powered subwoofer and it outputs very low-frequency sound at a low volume level, it may not be detected by the automatic speaker setup.

If the “Subwoofer” appears on the “Review SP Config” screen as “No”, increase the subwoofer’s volume to the half-way point, set it to its highest crossover frequency, and then try running the automatic speaker setup again. Note that if the volume is set too high and the sound distorts, detection issues may occur, so use an appropriate volume level. If the subwoofer has a low-pass filter

switch, set it to Off or Direct. Refer to your subwoofer’s

instruction manual for details.

RDS only works in areas where RDS broadcasts are available. When tuned to an RDS station, the RDS indicator appears.

■ What is RDS?

RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available in most European countries. RDS is approved by the National Radio Systems Committee (NRSC) and is available in North America.

Many FM stations use it these days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport, rock, etc.).

The AV controller supports four types of RDS information:

PS (Program Service)

When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS information, the station’s name will be displayed. Pressing the [DISPLAY] button will display the frequency for 3 seconds.

RT (Radio Text)

When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text information, the text will be shown on the display (see page 73).

PTY (Program Type)

This allows you to search RDS radio stations by type (see page 73).

TP (Traffic Program)

This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that broadcast traffic information (see page 73).

Notes:

• In some cases, the characters displayed on the AV controller may not be identical to those broadcast by the radio station. Also, unexpected characters may be displayed when unsupported characters are received. This is not a malfunction.

• If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be displayed intermittently or not at all.

Recording

This section explains how to record the input source and how to record audio and video from separate sources.

Notes:

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

• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.

• Sources connected to the analog multichannel input cannot be recorded.

• Various restrictions apply to digital recording. Refer to the manuals supplied with your digital recording equipment for more details.

• Digital input signals are output by only the digital outputs, and analog input signals are output by only the analog outputs. There is no internal conversion from digital to analog or vice versa.

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

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

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT or DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT jacks. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks. See pages 28 to 44 for hookup information.

Note:

If you select a different input source during recording, that input source will be recorded instead.

You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by simultaneously recording audio and video from two separate sources. This is possible because only the audio source is switched when an audio-only input source, such as TAPE, TUNER, or CD, is selected, the video source remains the same.

In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder connected to the AUX 2 INPUT VIDEO jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

Hint!

Using the Listening Modes—Continued

The AV controller’s listening modes can transform your listening room into a movie theater or concert hall, with high fidelity and stunning surround sound.

Pure Audio

Button:

In this mode, the display and video circuitry are turned off, minimizing possible noise sources for the ultimate in high-fidelity reproduction. (As the video circuitry is turned off, only video signals input through HDMI IN can be output.)

Note:

• The Pure Audio listening mode cannot be selected while Zone 2 is on.

Direct

Button: In this mode, audio from the input source is output

directly with minimal processing, providing high-fidelity reproduction. All of the source’s audio channels are output as they are.

Stereo

Button: Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and

subwoofer.

Mono

Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono soundtrack, or use it with the foreign language soundtracks recorded in the left and right channels of some movies. It can also be used with DVDs or other sources containing multiplexed audio, such as karaoke DVDs.

Multichannel

This mode is for use with analog or PCM multichannel sources.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic IIx expands any 2-channel source for

7.1-channel playback. It provides a very natural and seamless surround-sound experience that fully envelops the listener. As well as music and movies, video games can also benefit from the dramatic spatial effects and vivid imaging. If you’re not using any surround back speakers, Dolby Pro Logic II will be used instead of Dolby Pro Logic IIx.

• Dolby PLIIx Movie

Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).

• Dolby PLIIx Music

Use this mode with any stereo or Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

• Dolby PLIIx Game

Use this mode with video games, especially those that bear the Dolby Pro Logic II logo.

Dolby Digital

Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo, and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts. This is the most common digital surround-sound format, and it’ll put you right in the middle of the action, just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

5.1-channel source + Dolby EX

These modes expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1channel playback. They’re especially suited to Dolby EX soundtracks that include a matrix-encoded surround back channel. The additional channel adds an extra dimension and provides an enveloping surround sound experience, perfect for rotating and fly-by sound effects.

Dolby Digital Plus

Developed for use with HDTV, including the new video disc formats Blu-ray and HD DVD, this is the latest multichannel audio format from Dolby. It supports up to 7.1 channels with 48 kHz sampling rate.

About the Listening Modes

The LISTENING MODE button illustration shows that listening modes can be selected.

Button: The LISTENING MODE button illustration shows

the remote controller buttons with the exception of the [PURE A] button (All buttons with the exception of the [PURE A] button are on both the AV controller and the remote controller).

Dolby TrueHD

Designed to take full advantage of the additional storage space offered by the new Blu-ray and HD DVD disc formats, this new Dolby format offers up to 7.1 discrete channels of digital audio with 48/96 kHz, up to 5.1-channels with 192 kHz sampling rate.

For the signals supported by the AV controller, see page 79.

5.1-channel source + Dolby PLIIx Music

These modes use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode to expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback.

5.1-channel source + Dolby PLIIx Movie

These modes use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie mode to expand 5.1-channel sources for 7.1-channel playback.

DTS

The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to

5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for highfidelity reproduction. Use it with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.

DTS 96/24

This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is high-resolution DTS with a 96 kHz sampling rate and 24-bit resolution, providing superior fidelity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.

DTS-ES Discrete

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks, which use a discrete surround back channel for true

6.1/7.1-channel playback. The seven totally separate audio channels provide better spatial imaging and 360degree sound localization, perfect for sounds that pan across the surround channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Discrete soundtrack.

DTS-ES Matrix

This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks, which use a matrix-encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTSES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix soundtrack.

DTS Neo:6

This mode expands any 2-channel source for up to 7.1channel playback. It uses seven full-bandwidth channels of matrix decoding for matrix-encoded material, providing a very natural and seamless surround sound experience that fully envelops the listener.

•Neo:6 Cinema

Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).

• Neo:6 Music

Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

5.1-channel source + Neo:6

This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel sources for

6.1/7.1-channel playback.

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio

Developed for use with HDTV, including the new video disc formats Blu-ray and HD DVD, this is the latest multichannel audio format from DTS. It supports up to 7.1 channels with 96 kHz sampling rate.

DTS-HD Master Audio

Designed to take full advantage of the additional storage space offered by the new Blu-ray and HD DVD disc formats, this new DTS format offers up to 7.1 discrete channels of digital audio with 48/96 kHz, up to 5.1-channels with 192 kHz sampling rate.

For the signals supported by the AV controller, see page 80.

DTS Express

This format supports up to 5.1 channels and a lower sampling rate of 48 kHz. Applications include interactive audio and commentary encoding for HD DVD Sub Audio and Blu-ray Secondary Audio. Also broadcast and media servers.

Neural THX 5.1/7.1

Neural-THX Surround employs psychoacoustic frequency domain processing, which allows delivery of a more detailed sound stage, with superior channel separation and localization of audio elements. The Neural THX

5.1 and Neural THX 7.1 modes can expand any 2-chan-

nel stereo source for 5.1- or 7.1-channel playback, respectively. Use them with CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD, and other 2-channel stereo sources, including video games. Neural-THX Surround can also be used by broadcasters to encode and transmit surroundsound content over a stereo signal, which listeners can enjoy as either surround sound or normal stereo. XM Satellite Radio, for example, is using Neural-THX Surround on select channels, which the AV controller can expand from 5.1 channels to 7.1 channels.

DSD

DSD stands for Direct Stream Digital and is the format used to store digital audio on Super Audio CDs (SACD). This mode can be used with SACDs that feature multichannel audio.

THX

Founded by George Lucas, THX develops stringent standards that ensure movies are reproduced in movie theaters and home theaters just as the director intended.

THX Modes carefully optimize the tonal and spatial characteristics of the soundtrack for reproduction in the home-theater environment. They can be used with 2channel matrixed and multichannel sources.

Surround back speaker output depends on the source material and the selected listening mode.

•THX Cinema

THX Cinema mode corrects theatrical soundtracks for playback in a home theater environment. In this mode, THX Loudness Plus is configured for cinema levels and Re-EQ, Timbre Matching, and Adaptive Decorrelation are active.

•THX Music

THX Music mode is tailored for listening to music, which is typically mastered at significantly higher levels than movies. In this mode, THX Loudness Plus is configured for music playback and only Timbre Matching is active.

•THX Games

THX Games mode is meant for spatially accurate playback of game audio, which is often mixed similarly to movies but in a smaller environment. THX Loudness Plus is configured for game audio levels, with Timbre Matching active.

• THX Ultra2 Cinema

This mode expands 5.1-channel sources for 7.1channel playback. It does this by analyzing the composition of the surround source, optimizing the ambient and directional sounds to produce the surround back channel output.

• THX Ultra2 Music

This mode is designed for use with music. It expands

5.1-channel sources for 7.1-channel playback.

• THX Ultra2 Games

This mode is designed for use with video games. It can expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel playback.

• THX Surround EX

This mode expands 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1channel playback. It’s especially suited to Dolby Digital EX sources. THX Surround EX, also known as Dolby Digital Surround EX, is a joint development between Dolby Laboratories and THX Ltd.

Using the Listening Modes—Continued

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Mono Movie

This mode is suitable for old movies and other mono 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, this mode emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the stereo image, and simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz, this mode emphasizes the front stereo image, giving the impression of being right in front of the stage.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock or 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

This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire sound, and clarity to voices.

All Ch Stereo

Ideal for background music, this mode fills the entire listening area with stereo sound from the front, surround, and surround back speakers.

Full Mono

In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in mono, so the sound you hear is the same regardless of where you are within the listening room.

T-D (Theater-Dimensional)

With this mode you can enjoy a virtual 5.1 surround sound even with only two or three speakers. This works by controlling how sounds reach the listener’s left and right ears. Good results may not be possible if there’s too much reverb, so we recommend that you use this mode in an environment with little or no natural reverb.

Advanced Setup

The onscreen setup menus appear on the connected TV and provide a convenient way to change the AV controller’s various settings. Settings are organized into eight categories on the main menu, most containing a submenu.

The following crossover frequencies can be specified: Full Band, 40 Hz, 45 Hz, 50 Hz, 55 Hz, 60 Hz, 70 Hz, 80 Hz (THX), 90 Hz, 100 Hz, 110 Hz, 120 Hz, 130 Hz, 150 Hz, or 200 Hz.

Specify Full Band for speakers that can output low-frequency bass sounds adequately, for example, speakers with a good sized woofer. For smaller speakers, specify a crossover frequency. Sounds below the crossover frequency will then be output by the subwoofer instead of the speaker. Refer to your speakers’ manuals to determine the optimum crossover frequencies.

If you’re using THX-certified speakers, specify 80 Hz (THX) for all speakers.

THX Loudness Plus

THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™ and THX Select2 Plus™ Certified receivers. With THX Loudness Plus, home theater audiences can now experience the rich details in a surround mix at any volume level. A consequence of turning the volume below Reference Level is that certain sound elements can be lost or perceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial shifts that occur when the volume is reduced by intelligently adjusting ambient surround channel levels and frequency response. This enables users to experience the true impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume setting. THX Loudness Plus is automatically applied when listening in any THX listening mode. The new THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games modes are tailored to apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings for each type of content.

Tone Control Settings

You can adjust the tone (bass and treble) of the front, center, surround, and surr back speakers individually. For the subwoofer, you can adjust the bass.

■ Bass

You can boost or cut low-frequency sounds from –10 dB to +10 dB in 1 dB steps.

■ Treble

You can boost or cut high-frequency sounds from –10 dB to +10 dB in 1 dB steps.

• This setting is not available when the multichannel Analog input is selected.

• This procedure can also be performed on the AV controller by using its [TONE], [e], and [r] buttons (see page 66).

DSD Setting

■ DAC Direct

This setting determines whether or not DSD (SACD) audio signals are passed through the DSP for A/V Sync, delay, etc., processing when the Pure Audio or Direct listening mode is selected.

No: DSD signals are processed by the DSP

(default).

Ye s : DSD signals are not processed by the DSP.

Multiplex/Mono Settings

Multiplex

■ Input Ch(Mux)

This setting determines which channel of a stereo multiplex source is output. 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.

Main/Sub:

Both the main and sub channels are output.

Mono

■ Input Ch(Mono)

This setting specifies the channel to be used for playing any 2-channel digital source such as Dolby Digital, or 2-channel analog/PCM source in the Mono listening mode.

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

(default).

L: Only the left channel is output.

R: Only the right channel is output.

■ Output Speaker

This setting determines which speakers output mono audio when the Mono listening mode is selected.

C: Mono audio is output by the center speaker

(default).

L/R: Mono audio is output by the front left and right

speakers.

■ Dimension

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. It can be adjusted from –3 to +3. The default value is 0. Lower settings move the sound field forward. Higher settings move it backward.

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 setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Dolby 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. The default value is 3.

Neo:6 Music

■ 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. The default value is 2.

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 EX Settings

■ Dolby EX

This setting determines how Dolby EX signals are handled.

Aut o: When the source is Dolby EX, you can select

the Dolby EX or THX Surround EX listening mode (default).

Manual: When the source is Dolby EX, you can select

any of the listening modes compatible with this format (e.g., Dolby EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, etc.).

Theater-Dimensional (T–D) Setting

■ Listening Angle

With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-Dimensional listening mode by specifying the angle of the front left and right speakers relative to the listening position. Ideally, the front left and right speakers should be equidistant from the listening position and at an angle close to one of the two available settings.

Wide: Select if the angle is greater than 30 degrees

(default).

Narrow: Select if the angle is less than 30 degrees.

LFE Level Settings

With these settings, you can set the level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effects) channel individually for Dolby Digital, DTS, and multichannel PCM sources. The level can be set to –

∞, –20 dB, –10 dB, or 0 dB (default).

If you find that low-frequency effects are too loud when using one of these sources, change the setting to –20 dB or –∞ dB.

■ Dolby Digital

Sets the level of the LFE channel for Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus sources.

■ DTS

Sets the level of the LFE channel for DTS and DTS-HD High Resolution sources.

■ Multich PCM

Sets the level of the LFE channel for multichannel PCM sources. (Multichannel PCM is input via HDMI.)
