Connecting Your Speakers

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. You can enjoy DVDs featuring Dolby Digital or DTS. 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).

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.

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.

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.

Connecting Your Speakers

Speaker Conﬁguration

For the best surround-sound experience, you should connect seven speakers and a powered subwoofer.

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

Number of speakers: 234567

Front left

Front right

Center

Surround left

Surround right

Surround back*

Surround back left

Surround back right

* If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the

SURR BACK L terminals.

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 55) or manually (see page 86).

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.

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

•You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, be sure to set the speaker impedance to 4 ohms (see page 45). 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. 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.

Connecting the Speaker Cables

• 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 a speaker to several terminals.

Strip about 5/8" (15

mm) of insulation from

5/8" (15 mm)

Fully insert the bare wire.

the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

Unscrew the terminal.

Screw the terminal tight.

The following illustration shows which speaker should be connected to each pair of terminals. If you’re using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURR BACK L terminals.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminal posts 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 receiver is able to drive up to 5.1 speakers in the main room.

•For bi-amping, the FRONT L/R terminal posts connect to the front speakers’ tweeter terminals. And the SURR BACK L/R terminal posts connect to the front speakers’ woofer terminals.

• Once you’ve completed the bi-amping connections shown below and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the Speaker Type setting to Bi-Amp to enable biamping (see page 45).

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.

• Use only front speakers with an impedance of 8 ohms or higher for bi-amping. Failure to do so may seriously damage the AV receiver.

Bi-amping Speaker Hookup

Connect the AV receiver’s FRONT R positive (+)

terminal to the right speaker’s positive (+) tweeter (high) terminal. And connect the AV receiver’s FRONT R negative (–) terminal to the right speaker’s negative (–) tweeter (high) terminal.

Connect the AV receiver’s SURR BACK R posi-

tive (+) terminal to the right speaker’s positive (+) woofer (low) terminal. And connect the AV receiver’s SURR BACK R negative (–) terminal to the right speaker’s negative (–) woofer (low) terminal.

Bridging the Front Speakers (TX-SR875 only)

The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminal posts can be used with front speakers and surround back speakers respectively, or bridged together to provide almost double the output power for the front speakers.

• When bridging is used, the AV receiver is able to drive 2 speakers in the main room (2.1 speakers if you’re using a powered subwoofer).

•For bridging, the positive (+) FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminal posts are used, but the negative (–) FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminals are not.

• Once you’ve completed the bridging connections shown below and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the Speaker Type setting to BTL to enable bridging (see page 45).

Notes:

• Use only front speakers with an impedance of 8 ohms or higher for bridging. Failure to do so may seriously damage the AV receiver.

• When using bridging, make sure that your front speakers can handle the additional power.

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.

FM 75

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 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.

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, you must make an audio connection and a video connection.

Video Connection Formats

Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver 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 receiver can upconvert and downconvert between video formats, depending on the HDMI Monitor setting, which generally determines whether video signals are upconverted for the component video output or the HDMI output.

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 (page 97).

■

HDMI Monitor Setting Set to Yes

With the HDMI Monitor setting set to Yes (see page 46), video input signals ﬂow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video, S-Video, and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output. Use this setting if you connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT to your TV.

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

HDMI Monitor Setting Set to No

With the HDMI Monitor setting set to No (see page 46), video input signals ﬂow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and S-Video sources being upconverted for the component video output. Use this setting if you connect the AV receiver’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT 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 pass through their respective input signals as they are.

On the TX-SR875, this signal ﬂow also applies when the Monitor Out Resolution setting is set to Through (see page 46).

Video Signal Flow and the Resolution Setting

On the TX-SR875, when the HDMI Monitor setting is set to No (see page 46), if the Monitor Out Resolution setting is set to anything other than Through (see page 46), the video signal ﬂow will be as shown here, with composite video and S-Video sources being upconverted for the component video output.

The composite video, S-Video, and component video outputs pass through their respective analog input signals as they are. HDMI input signals are not output.

Audio Connection Formats

Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, analog multichannel, 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 TAPE OUT.
