qualified service personnel.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
Remote controller & two batteries (AA/R6)
Blue:
Neutral
Brown: Live
(American type shown)
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
apparatus may not correspond with the coloured mark-
ings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as
follows:
Indoor FM antenna
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured black.
(Connector type varies from country to country.)
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter L or
coloured red.
IMPORTANT
AM loop antenna
The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse
needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must
approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the same
ampere rating as that indicated on the plug. Check for
the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.

Memory Backup
The AV receiver 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 AV receiver
must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the
backup system. Once it has been charged, the AV
receiver will retain the settings for several weeks,
although this depends on the environment and will be
shorter in humid climates.

Notes:
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV
receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sun-
light or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in
mind when installing.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in
the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to
equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote control-
ler may not work reliably.
• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote con-
troller, because the buttons may be pressed inadvert-
ently, thereby draining the batteries.
Slide the cover shut.

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV
receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass
doors. Keep this in mind when installing.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obsta-
cle between it and the AV receiver’s remote control
sensor.
Notes:
• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try
replacing the batteries.
• Don’t mix new and old batteries or different types of
batteries.
• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long
time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from
leakage or corrosion.
• Expired batteries should be removed as soon as possi-
ble to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

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 equally spaced from the
TV. Angle them inward.
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 facing forward
at about ear level, or at the same height
as the front left and right speakers.

Speaker Set B: Sub Room
These speakers are used for precise sound position-
ing 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.

Speaker Connection Precautions
For the best surround-sound experience, you should con-
nect five speakers and a powered subwoofer.
The following table shows which channels you should
use based on the number of speakers that you have.
Read the following before connecting your speakers:
• You can connect speakers with an impedance of
6 ohms or higher. If you use speakers with a lower
impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume lev-
els for a long period of time, the built-in protection
circuit may be activated.

• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other
words, connect positive (+) terminals to only positive
(+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only nega-
tive (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way
around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound
unnatural.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered sub-
woofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid
bass.
• Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may
affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
Before using the AV receiver, you must specify which
To get the very best from your surround-sound system,
and each individual speaker so that the sound from each
speaker arrives at the listener’s ears at the same time (see
page 52). In addition, you should set the level of each
individual speaker to achieve an equal balance (see
page 52.)
• 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 termi-
nal. Doing so may damage the
AV receiver.
• Don’t connect one speaker to several terminals.
Attaching the Speaker Labels
The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are
color-coded for ease of identification. (The negative (–)
speaker terminals are all black.)

Connecting Antenna
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 receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without
any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna
to use the tuner.
Connecting the AM Loop Antenna
The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use
only.
Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting
the tabs into the base, as shown.
1
AM antenna push terminals
FM antenna jack
Connect both wires of the AM loop
antenna to the AM push terminals, as
shown.
2
Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna
(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so
they can be connected either way around).
Make sure that the wires are attached securely and
that the push terminals are gripping the bare
wires, not the insulation.
The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.
Attach the FM antenna, as shown.

■ American Model
Push
Insert wire
Release
Insert the plug fully into the jack.
Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll
need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust
the position of theAM antenna to achieve the best
possible reception.
■ Other Models
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from
cords.
Insert the plug fully
into the jack.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commer-
cially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 21).
Once your AV receiver 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.
Fully extend the antenna and point it in
2
various directions to find the best recep-
tacks or something similar.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available out-
door FM antenna instead (see page 21).

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna
Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available out-
door FM antenna instead.
If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied
AM loop antenna, an outdoorAM antenna can be used in
addition to the loop antenna, as shown.
Outdoor antenna
Insulated antenna cable
AM loop antenna
Notes:
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable
results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an
attic or loft.
Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside
horizontally, 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.
• 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 possi-
ble 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 haz-
ards.
■ 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 cir-
cumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as
shown.

AV Connection Color Coding
About AV Connections
RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red,
white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-chan-
nel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use
white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and out-
puts (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to
connect composite video inputs and outputs.
• Before making any AV connections, read the manuals
supplied with your other AV components.
• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed
and double-checked all AV connections.

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, such as a DVD player, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.
Video Connection Formats
Audio Connection Formats
Video equipment can be connected to the AV receiver
using one of the following video connection formats:
composite video, or component video, the latter offering
the best picture quality.
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that
the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats, so only
outputs of the same format as the input will output the
signal.
For example, if you connect your DVD player to the
COMPONENT VIDEO DVD IN, a video signal will be
output by the COMPONENT OUT, but not by any com-
posite video outputs.
Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver
using the following audio connection formats: analog,
optical, coaxial, and multichannel.
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that
the AV receiver doesn’t convert between formats.
For example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or
COAXIAL digital input are not output by the analog
TAPE OUT, so if you want to record from, for example,
your CD player, in addition to connecting it to a digital
input, you must also connect it to the analog CD IN.

■ 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 avail-
able in most European countries. 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.).

About the Listening Modes
With its built-in surround-sound decoders and DSP pro-
grams, the AV receiver can transform your home listen-
ing room into a movie theater or concert hall.
Neo:6
This mode provides 5.1-channel playback from 2-chan-
nel sources. It offers five full-bandwidth channels with
excellent separation. There are two modes of operation:
Cinema mode for movies, and Music mode for listening
to music.
This illustration shows which speakers are active in
each listening mode.
Front left
Center
Front right
Cinema mode simulates the realistic sense of movement
that you get with 5.1-channel surround sound sources.
Use this mode with videos, DVDs, and TV shows that
feature stereo sound.
Music mode uses the surround channels to simulate a
natural sound field that cannot be produced with conven-
tional stereo. Use this mode with stereo material such as
music CDs.
Subwoofer
Surround
left
Surround
right
Direct
The selected input source is output directly with minimal
processing for a pure sound.
Stereo
The selected input source is processed as a stereo signal
and output by the front left and right speakers and the
subwoofer.
Onkyo Original DSP Modes
Mono Movie
This mode is suitable for use with old movies and other
mono sound 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.
Mono
Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono
soundtrack, or to select multilingual soundtracks
recorded in the left and right channels of some movies.
It can also be used when playing a DVD or other source
with multiplexed audio, such as a karaoke DVD.
Orchestra
Suitable for classical or operatic music. The surround
channels are emphasized in order to widen the stereo
image. In addition, it simulates the natural reverberation
of a large hall.
Dolby Pro Logic II Movie
Use this mode with DVDs and vid-
eos that bear the Dolby Surround
logo or TV shows that feature Dolby Surround. You can
also use this mode with stereo movies or TV shows and
the AV receiver will create a 5.1 surround mix from the
2-channel stereo.
Unplugged
Suitable for acoustic instrument sounds, vocals, and jazz
music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simu-
lates the stage-front experience.
Dolby Pro Logic II Music
Use this mode to add 5.1 surround to stereo sources such
as music CDs and DVDs.
Studio-Mix
Suitable for rock and 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.
Dolby Pro Logic II Game
Use this mode when playing game discs.
TV Logic
Dolby Digital
Adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV
studio. In addition, it adds surround effects to the entire
sound and adds clarity to voices.
With this format you can experience the
same superb sound that you get at a movie
theater or concert hall. Use this mode with DVDs that
bear the Dolby Digital logo.
All Ch Stereo
Ideal for background music. The front, surround, and
surround back channels create a stereo image that fills
the entire listening area.
DTS
This digital surround format offers a sur-
round sound experience with exceptional
fidelity. It uses compressed digital audio
data, with six discrete channels (5.1), and the
ability to handle large amounts of audio data while
remaining faithful to the original. DTS provides very
high-quality sound.You’ll need a DTS compatible DVD
Full Mono
In this mode, all speakers output mono audio, so the
music sounds the same regardless of where you are.

Notes:
• The effect 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
• The Late Night function is set to Off when the AV
receiver is set to Standby.
This setting has an effect when you use a center speaker.
With this function, you can adjust the width of the sound
from the center speaker when using the Pro Logic II
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 set-
ting controls the front left, right, and center mix, allow-
ing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound.
It can be adjusted from 0 to 7 (default is 3).
Using the CinemaFILTER
With the CinemaFILTER, you can soften overly bright
movie soundtracks, which are typically mixed for repro-
duction in a movie theater.
CinemaFILTER can be used with the following listening
modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, DTS,
and DTS Neo:6 Cinema.

When set to 0, the front left and right channel output is
attenuated by half (–6 dB), giving the impression that the

ated, maintaining the original stereo balance.

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
different 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 theVIDEO 3
input and listen to the audio from the CD input.
Recording the Input Source
You can record only to AV components that are con-
nected to the TAPE OUT or VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.
See pages 22–31 for information on connecting yourAV
components to the AV receiver.
In the following example, audio from the CD player con-
nected to the CD IN jacks, and video from the camcorder
connected to the VIDEO 3 IN jack are recorded by the
VCR, which is connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.
Use the input selector buttons to
select the AV component that
you want to record.
Audio signals from the selected input
source are output by theVIDEO 1 OUT
and TAPE OUT jacks.

Speaker Distance
• The Center and Subwoofer distances can be set up to
5 ft. (1.5 m) more or less than the Front distance. For
example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the
Center and Subwoofer distances can be set between 15
and 25 ft. (4.5 and 7.5 m).
To get the best from surround sound, it’s important that
the sound from each speaker reaches the listener at the
same time. To achieve this, you need to specify the dis-
tance from each speaker to the listening position.
• The Surround distances can be set up to 5 ft. (1.5 m)
more or 15 ft. (4.5 m) less than the Front distance. For
example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the
SurrRight and Surr Left distances can be set between
5 and 25 ft. (1.5 and 7.5 m).
Measure and make a note of the
distance from each speaker to

Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immedi-
ately. Disconnect all speaker cables and input sources,
and leave the AV receiver with its power cord discon-
nected for one hour. After that, reconnect the power
cord, and then set the volume to maximum. If the AV
receiver stays on, set the volume to minimum, discon-
nect the power cord, and reconnect your speakers and
input sources properly. If the AV receiver turns off
when you set the volume to maximum, disconnect the
power cord, and contact your Onkyo dealer.

About DTS signals
• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit-
stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listening
mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to pre-
vent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast
reverse function on your player. If you switch your
player from DTS to PCM, because the AV receiver
does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear
any sound, in which case you should stop your player
for about three seconds, and then resume playback.
• With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback
DTS material properly even though your player is con-
nected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is
usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed
(e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency
response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recog-
nize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you
may hear noise.
away from the AV receiver, and that there’s no
obstruction between the remote controller and the AV
receiver’s remote control sensor (page 9).
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control-
ler mode (page 10).
• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control
code.
Can’t control other components?
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control-
ler mode (page 10).
• If you’ve connected an
-capable Onkyo MD
patible component to the TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or a
DS-A1 Remote Interactive Dock to the VIDEO 3 IN
jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you
must set the Input Display to MD, CDR, or HDD (see
page 33).
• When playing DTS program material, using the pause,
fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player
may produce a short audible noise. This is not a mal-
function.
• To control an Onkyo component that’s connected via
, point the remote controller at the AV receiver.

Recording
Can’t record?
• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal pro-
cessing 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
event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the
wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it
back in again.
Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD
rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by
the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important
data, make sure that the material will be recorded cor-
rectly.
Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall out-
let, set the AV receiver to Standby.
