NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruc-
tions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter-
ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Precautions—Continued
1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use only,
recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission
of the copyright holder.
2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the HT-R510 is not user-service-
able. If you cannot turn on the HT-R510, contact your Onkyo
dealer.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that the
voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the
HT-R510’s rear panel (AC 120 V, 60 Hz).
Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY does not fully
shutdown the HT-R510. If you do not intend to use the HT-R510 for
an extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.
3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the HT-R510 all over with
a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with
a weak solution of mild detergent and water. Dry the HT-R510
immediately afterwards with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive
cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because
they may damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.
4. Power
Memory backup
The HT-R510 uses a battery-less memory backup system in order to
retain radio presets and other settings when it’s unplugged or in the
case of a power failure. Although no batteries are required, the
HT-R510 must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the
backup system.
Once it has been charged, the HT-R510 will retain the set-
tings for several weeks, although this depends on the envi-
ronment and will be shorter in humid climates.
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

Notes:
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the
HT-R510 is subjected to bright light, such as direct sun-
light or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind
when installing the HT-R510.
Notes:
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the
same room, or the HT-R510 is installed close to equipment
that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work
reliably.
• The supplied batteries should last for about six months,
although this will vary with usage.
• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing
both batteries.
• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote control-
ler, because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently,
thereby draining the batteries.
• Don’t mix new and old batteries, or different types of bat-
teries.
• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long
time, remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage and
corrosion.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the
HT-R510 is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors.
Keep this in mind when installing the HT-R510.
• Flat batteries should be removed as soon as possible to pre-
vent possible leakage and corrosion.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle
between it and the HT-R510’s remote control sensor.

ConnectingYour AV Components
RCA/phono AV Connection Color Coding
Before Making Any Connections
RCA/phono AV connections are usually color coded: red,
white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel
audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white
plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typi-
cally labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect compos-
ite video inputs and outputs.
• Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.
• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed all
audio and video connections.
Optical Digital Inputs
The HT-R510’s optical digital connectors have a shutter-type
cover that opens when an optical plug is inserted, and closes
when it’s removed. Push the plug in all the way.

Video Connection Formats
Video equipment can be connected to the HT-R510 using the
following video connection formats: composite video,
S-Video, or component video, the latter offering the best pic-
ture quality.
AV component
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the
HT-R510 doesn’t convert between formats, so only output
connectors of the same format as the input connector will
output a signal, as shown below.
Make sure that the wattage requirements of the AV compo-
nent that you connect to the HT-R510’s AC outlet do not
exceed the maximum wattage printed on the rear panel.
For example, if you connect your DVD player to the
S-VIDEO DVD IN, a video signal will be output by the
S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT (for your TV) and the S-VIDEO

InstallingYour Speakers
■ Surround Speakers
Surround speakers add a sense of movement and put you, the
listener, in the middle of the action.
You can use two sets of speakers with your HT-R510:
speaker set A and speaker set B.
With speaker set A, which should be installed in your main
listening room, and can be used with Dolby Digital or DTS
surround material, you can connect front-left, front-right,
center, surround-left, surround-right, surround-back, and
subwoofer speakers.
• The surround-left and surround-right speakers should be
installed at the sides, or slightly behind the listener, 2–3 ft.
(60–100 cm) above ear level, and against the side walls.
The surround-back speaker should be installed behind the
listener also at 2–3 ft. (60–100 cm) above ear level. Make
sure that the listening position is within the range of the
speakers.
With speaker set B, which can be installed in another room,
and used with stereo or mono material, you can connect a
pair of standard hi-fi speakers.
■ Subwoofer
The subwoofer handles the low-frequencies, providing a
powerful and solid bass.
PositioningYour Speakers
Speaker-set B can be positioned in the standard position for
stereo speakers or where you like.
• The volume and quality of the bass output from your sub-
woofer will depend on its position, the shape of your listen-
ing 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.
Speaker-setA, however, must be positioned at specific points
in your listening room to achieve the best results from sur-
round sound material. The following illustration shows the
best positions for your surround-sound speakers. Obviously,
the positions you choose will depend on the shape of your
room and the position of your TV or projector screen. Either
way, use this illustration as a guide and try to use the same
positions relative to your listening position.

speaker
Speaker cables are two-wire cables, with one wire for con-
necting to the positive (+) terminal, and one for connecting to
the negative (–) terminal.
The HT-R510’s positive (+) speaker terminals are color-
coded for ease of identification. (The negative (–) speaker
terminals are black.)

To get the most from surround sound, you should connect all
seven speakers. However, if you don’t connect a center
speaker or surround speakers, you can still enjoy surround
sound material by specifying the number of speakers con-
nected, and the HT-R510 will produce the best surround
sound possible with the available speakers. See page 34.

The supplied speaker labels are also color-coded and you
should attach them to the positive side of each speaker cable
as appropriate. For example, put the white labels on the pos-
itive sides of the front-left speaker cable, as shown below.
Similarly, if you don’t have a subwoofer, you can turn off the
subwoofer so that bass sounds are produced by the other
speakers. See page 25.
■ Front Speakers
Front speakers consist of front-left, front-right, and center
speakers. The center speaker adds directionality and move-
ment.
• In general, the front-left, front-right, and center speakers
should be installed facing the listener at ear-level.

Before you connect your speakers, read the following:
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

lation from the ends of the
speaker cables, and twist
the bare wires tightly, as
shown.
• 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 odd.
Unscrew the terminal.
2
• Only use speakers with an impedance of between 8 Ω and
16 Ω. Connecting speakers with an impedance of less than
8 Ω may damage your HT-R510.
Fully insert the wire.
3
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect
the sound quality and should be avoided.
Screw the terminal tight.
• Be careful not to short the positive and
negative connections. Doing so may
damage your HT-R510.
4
• Don’t connect more than one cable to
each speaker terminal. Doing so may
damage your HT-R510.

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 for tall
buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM
transmitter.
Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside hor-
izontally, 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 should be located away from possible noise
sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.
Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local
regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards. See item 14
of the “Important Safeguards” on page 2 of this manual.
• 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 reg-
ulations to prevent electrical shock hazards. See item 14 of the
“Important Safeguards” on page 2 of this manual.
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 circum-
stances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

connected to a digital input and analog input. When an input
source is assigned to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL digital
input (page 24), the digital input has priority over the corre-
sponding analog input. However, with this function you can
override that and force the HT-R510 to use the analog input.
In addition, you can set the DVD input source to use the
multi-channel inputs.
If you’re using a MiniDisc recorder, you
can set the display to show “MD” instead
of “TAPE.” See page 24.

The multi-channel inputs are for connecting an AV compo-
nent with individual 5.1-surround analog outputs, such as a
DVD player or MPEG decoder.
See “ConnectingYour AV Components” on page 13 for con-
nection information.
While “Auto” is displayed, the name of the digital input cur-
rently assigned to the input source (page 24) is displayed in
parenthesis. For example, “Auto (COAX).” The possible
inputs are OPT1, OPT2, and COAX.
Remote
controller
Press the remote controller’s [DVD]
input selector button, then [AUDIO
SEL] button to select “Multich.”
1
The options are explained below.
Start playback on the AV compo-
nent.
Auto: The assigned digital input will have priority over the
analog inputs. If no digital signal is present, the analog inputs
will be used.
Analog: The analog inputs will be used even if the input
source (i.e., AV component) is connected digitally.
To adjust the volume of an individ-
ual speaker, use the remote con-
troller’s [CH SEL] button to select
it, and then use the LEVEL [ ] [ ]
buttons.
2
Multich: The multi-channel inputs will be used even if the
input source is connected digitally.
Notes:
• When you assign an input source to COAX, OPT1, or
OPT2 on page 24, if the signal format for that input source
was previously set toAnalog, it’s automatically set toAuto.
• When you assign an input source to “– – – –” on page 24,
if the signal format for that input source was previously set
to Auto, it’s automatically set to Analog.
You can adjust the volume level of each individual speaker as
you like. For the front-left, front-right, center, surround-left,
and surround-right speakers, you can adjust the volume from
–12 dB to +12 dB. The subwoofer can be adjusted from
–30 dB to +12 dB.
Fixing the signal format at DTS or PCM
If you experience either of the following issues when playing
DTS or PCM source material with the Auto setting, you can
fix the signal format at PCM or DTS, as explained below.
Note that these settings work independently of the individual
speaker volume settings on page 27.
• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off
in Auto mode, try fixing the format at PCM.
• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a
DTS format CD or LD in Auto mode, try fixing the format
at DTS.
Enabling the Tone Controls
To use the Bass and Treble functions with the multi-channel
inputs, first you need to enable them. To do this, press the
[SURROUND] button. “Tone On” appears on the display.
You can now use the [AUDIO ADJUST] button to select the
Bass and Treble functions and adjust as explained on
page 37. To switch off the Bass and Treble functions, press
the [DIRECT] button. “Tone Off” appears on the display.
1) To fix the signal format, use the [AUDIO SELECTOR]
button, or the remote controller’s [AUDIO SEL] button to
select Auto.
2) While “Auto” is being displayed, use the PRESET/
ADJUST [ ] [ ] buttons to select: PCM, DTS, or Auto.
When the digital signal format is fixed at DTS or PCM,
only signals in the corresponding format will be output.
Digital signals in other formats will be ignored, and the
DTS or PCM indicator, depending on which format you
have set, will flash.
Notes:
• To use the multi-channel inputs, you must connect an AV
component with individual 5.1-surround analog outputs to
the HT-R510’s multi-channel inputs.
• You can select Multich only when the DVD input source is
selected.
• While Multich is selected, you can’t select a listening
mode. If you select Multich while using a listening mode,
the listening mode will be cancelled.
• While Multich is selected, the speaker configuration set-
ting (page 25) is ignored, so even if you have specified two
speakers, the multi-channel input signals will be fed to the
front-left, front-right, center, surround-left, and surround-
right speakers regardless.
• While Multich is selected, the subwoofer mode (page 25)
is ignored, so even if you have specified “Subwoofer Off,”
the signal connected to the SUBWOOFER DVD IN will be
fed to the SUBWOOFER PRE OUT regardless.

Using the Listening Modes
With its built-in surround-sound decoders and DSP pro-
grams, the HT-R510 can transform your home listening
room into a movie theater or concert hall.
Listening mode availability depends on the format of the cur-
rently selected input signal. For example, the Dolby Digital
listening modes are available only while a Dolby Digital for-
mat signal is being received. Likewise, the DTS listening
modes are available only while a DTS format signal is being
received.
To get the most from surround sound, it’s important that you
install and configure your speakers correctly. See “Installing
Your Speakers” on page 20 and “Configuring Speaker SetA”
on page 25 for information.
The following table lists all the possible listening modes and
indicates which modes can be selected for each source for-
mat. The “Speakers” column lists the minimum number of
speakers (excluding subwoofer) necessary to use each mode.
The adjacent diagram graphically indicates which speakers
are actually used in that mode. If you use less than the mini-
mum number of speakers, some modes will not be available.
About the Listening Modes
The HT-R510 provides a number of listening modes for use
with various types of source material, including Dolby Digi-
tal, DTS, Pro Logic II, and Neo:6. In addition, you can use
the special Onkyo DSP programs, Orchestra, Unplugged,
and so on, to add surround effects to stereo sources.
See page 20 for information on connecting the necessary
speakers, and see page 25 for information specifying the
number of speakers connected.

Using the Listening Modes—Continued
The listening modes are explained below.
• When listening to DTS material, using the pause, fast for-
ward, or reverse functions on your DTS-compatible player
may produce a short audible noise. This is normal.
Basic Modes
Direct: The selected input source is fed directly to the power-
amp stages and through to the front left and right speakers
with minimal processing. Use this mode when watching an
old movie that has a mono soundtrack, when listening to
either the left or right channel of multilingual material, or
when playing a DVD or other source that has multiplexed
audio, such as a karaoke DVD.
• When DTS material ends and the DTS signal transmission
stops, the HT-R510 remains in DTS listening mode, and
the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise
when you use the pause, fast forward, or reverse functions
on your DTS-compatible player. If you switch your player
from DTS to PCM, because the HT-R510 does not switch
formats immediately, you may not hear any sound, in
which case you should stop your player for about 3 sec-
onds, and then restart playback.
Stereo: The selected input source is processed as a stereo
signal and output by the front left and right speakers and sub-
woofer. Use this mode when listening to stereo sources.
• With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to play-
back DTS material properly even though your player is
connected to a digital input on the HT-R510. This is usu-
ally because the digital signal has been processed (e.g.,
output level, sampling rate, or frequency response
Surround Modes

changed) and the HT-R510 cannot recognize the signal as
a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.
Use this mode with DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby

Audio Adjust Functions—Continued
■ Dimension (Pro Logic II Music)
With this function, you can move the soundfield backward or
forward.
The Audio Adjust functions are explained below.
■ Bass
With this function you can boost or cut low-frequency
sounds output by the front speakers from –12 dB to +12 dB
in 2 dB steps.
Dimension: 3............... the soundfield is in the normal
position.
Choose a lower setting to move the soundfield forward.
Choose a higher setting to move it backward.
■ Treble
With this function you can boost or cut high-frequency
sounds output by the front speakers from –12 dB to +12 dB
in 2 dB steps.
If the stereo image is too wide, or there’s too much surround
information, try moving the soundfield forward to achieve a
better balance. If the stereo image is too narrow, or it sounds
almost like it’s in mono, try moving the soundfield backward.
■ Late Night (Dolby Digital)
With this function you can reduce the dynamic range of
Dolby Digital material so that you can still hear quiet parts
even when listening at low volume levels—ideal for watch-
ing movies late at night when you don’t want to disturb any-
one.
■ Center Width (Pro Logic II Music)
In Pro Logic II decoding, the center-channel signal is output
by the center speaker. If a center speaker is not used, the
decoder divides the center signal equally between the front
left and right speakers, producing what’s known as a “phan-
tom” center. With this function you can choose to have the
center-channel signal output by only the center speaker, by
only the front left and right speakers (“phantom” center), or
by a mix of the two.
Late Night=Off............no effect
Late Night=Low..........small reduction in dynamic range
Late Night=High .........big reduction in dynamic range
Note that the impact of the Late Night function depends on
the Dolby Digital material that you are playing, and with
some material there will be little or no effect.
Center Width: 0........... the center-channel signal is output
only by the center speaker.
This function is automatically cancelled when you set the
HT-R510 to Standby.
Center Width: 7........... it’s output only by the front left
and right speakers (“phantom”
center).
■ Cinema Filter
In home theaters, adding some width to the center channel
can improve the balance between the center and front left and
right speakers. Most stereo material will benefit from appro-
priate use of this function.
With this function, you can soften the harshness, or bright-
ness sometimes experienced with movie soundtracks, which
are typically mixed for reproduction in a movie theater.
■ Center Image (DTS Neo:6 Music)
The DTS Neo:6 surround format derives its center-channel
signal from stereo material, either analog or digital. In Music
mode, the center speaker is intended to augment the left and
right speakers, allowing them to faithfully reproduce the
original stereo mix. For this reason, the center channel sound
is not fully subtracted from the left and right channels. With
this function, you can adjust the amount of subtraction
depending on your room layout and personal preference.
Center Image: 5...........nothing is subtracted from the left
and right channels.
Center Image: 0...........the left and right channel levels
are halved (–6 dB), making the
center channel more dominant,
particularly useful when the lis-
tener is off-center.
This function has no effect on the level of the center speaker.
■ Panorama (Pro Logic II Music)
With this function, you can extend the front stereo image to
the surround speakers to provide a “wraparound” effect,
especially useful when not much sound is being output by the
surround speakers.

Recording
This chapter explains how to record the selected input source
to an AV component with recording capability, and how to
record audio and video from two different sources.
Recording from Different AV Sources
With this function you can record audio and video from dif-
ferent sources, allowing you to overdub audio onto your
video recordings. This function takes advantage of the fact
that when an audio-only input source (i.e., TAPE, TUNER,
or CD) is selected, the video input source remains
unchanged. For example, if you first select the VIDEO 3
input source, followed by the CD input source, you can
watch the video from the VIDEO 3 input and listen to the
audio from the CD input.
Recording the Input Source
You can record only to AV components that are connected to
the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT connectors.
See pages 10–19 for information on connecting your AV
components to the HT-R510.
MASTER VOLUME
In the following example, audio from the CD player con-
nected to the CD IN connectors, and video from the video
camera connected to theVIDEO 3 INPUTVIDEO connector
are recorded onto the VCR, which is connected to the
VIDEO 1 OUT connectors.

• The HT-R510 contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise
from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely even that this should happen, unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it back in again. That should fix it.
• To reset the HT-R510 to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VIDEO 1] button, press the [STANDBY/ON] button.
“Clear” will appear on the display and the HT-R510 will enter Standby mode.
