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 on top of the remote controller,  
such as a book or magazine, because a button may be  
pressed continuously, thereby draining the batteries.  
• 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.  
Replace the cover and push it shut.

• 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.

ConnectingYour 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.  
Surround left and right speakers  
These speakers are used for precise  
sound positioning and to add realistic  
ambience.  
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.  
Position them at the sides of the lis-  
tener, 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 yourTV (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 posi-  
tion, the shape of your listening room, and  
your listening position.In general, a good bass  
sound can be obtained by installing the sub-  
woofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way  
along the front wall, as shown.  
Surround back left and right speakers  
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital  
EX, DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They  
enhance the realism of surround sound and improve  
sound localization behind the listener. Position them  
behind the listener about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above  
ear level.  
Tip: To nd the best position for your sub-  
woofer, 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.

Speaker Configuration  
Using Dipole Speakers  
For 7.1-channel surround-sound playback, you need  
seven speakers and a powered subwoofer.  
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.  
The following table shows which channels you should  
use based on the number of speakers you have.  
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  
Connecting a Powered Subwoofer  
Read the following before connecting your speakers:  
Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s PRE  
OUT: SUBWOOFER to the input on your powered sub-  
woofer. If your subwoofer is unpowered and you’re  
using an external amplifier, connect the PRE OUT: SUB-  
WOOFER to the amp’s input.  
North American models:You can connect speakers  
with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you  
use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the  
amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of  
time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be acti-  
vated.  
AM  
SIRIUS  
Other models:You can connect speakers with an  
impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the imped-  
ance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or  
more, but less than 6 ohms, be sure to set the minimum  
speaker impedance to “4 ohms” (see page 43). 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 acti-  
vated.

Notes:  
• Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable  
results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an  
attic or loft.  
OutdoorAM antennas work best when installed horizon-  
tally 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.  
• 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 must be grounded in accordance with  
local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.  
• 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-  
channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”).  
Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and  
outputs (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.

Notes:  
• The AV receiver must be turned on for recording. Recording is not possible while it’s on Standby.  
• If you want to record directly from your TV or another video source without going through the AV receiver, connect  
the audio and video outputs from your TV or other video component directly to the recording VCR/DVR’s audio and  
video inputs. See the manuals supplied with your TV or VCR/DVR 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 OUTV jack. Likewise, video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be recorded via theVCR/DVR  
OUT S jack. So if your source TV or VCR is connected to an S-Video input, the recording VCR/DVR must be  
connected to the VCR/DVR OUT S jack.

Connecting Components with HDMI  
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).  
*1  
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 receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-compatible components will  
display a picture.  
The AV receiver’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  
Supported Audio Formats  
• 2-channel linear PCM (16/20/24 bit/32–192kHz)  
• Multichannel linear PCM (7.1 ch, 32–192kHz)  
• Bitstream (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, DTS-HD MasterAudio, DTS-HD High ResolutionAudio, Dolby  
TrueHD, DSD)  
Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.  
About Copyright Protection  
*2  
The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), a copy-protection system for digital  
video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.  
Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT  
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): Led 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.

ConnectingYour Components—Continued  
Making HDMI Connections  
If you have an HDMI-compatible player, you can connect it to the AV receiver with an HDMI cable.  
Step 1: Use HDMI cables to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI jacks to your HDMI-compatible DVD player, TV,  
projector, and so on.  
Step 2: Assign each HDMI IN to an input selector in the HDMI Input Setup (see page 44).  
Video Signals  
Composite video, S-Video, and component video sources can be upconverted for the HDMI output. See “Video Con-  
nection Formats” on page 23 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  
receiver. Normally, they are not output by the HDMI OUT, unless the Audio TV Out setting is set to On (see page 91).  
To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers, set the Audio TV Out  
Hint!  
setting to On (see page 91), and set your DVD player’s HDMI audio 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 receiver, 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 receiver). If the TV  
power is off or the TV is set to another input source, this may result in no sound from the AV receiver or the sound  
may be cut off.  
• 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.

If you’re using a powered subwoofer, as it outputs very  
low-frequency sound and its position is usually low down,  
it may not be detected by the automatic speaker setup. In  
this case, increase the subwoofer’s volume, select 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, it may not be detected,  
so use an appropriate volume level. If the subwoofer has  
a low-pass filter switch, set it to Off or Direct. Refer to

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. 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 dis-  
playing text information, RDS can also help you find  
radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport, rock, etc.).  
The AV receiver supports four types of RDS informa-  
tion:  
Pop music  
Rock music

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

Dolby Digital  
About the Listening Modes  
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.  
The AV receiver’s listening modes can transform your  
listening room into a movie theater or concert hall, with  
high fidelity and stunning surround sound.  
The illustration shows which speakers are active in  
each listening mode with 7.1 channel speaker sys-  
tem.  
5.1-channel source + Dolby EX  
These modes expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-  
channel 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.

5.1-channel source + Dolby PLIIx Music  
Direct  
These modes use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music mode  
to expand 5.1-channel sources for 6.1/7.1-channel play-  
back.  
In this mode, audio from the input source is output  
directly with minimal processing, providing high-fidel-  
ity reproduction. All of the source’s audio channels are  
output as they are.  
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.  
Stereo  
Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and  
subwoofer.  
Dolby Digital Plus  
Developed for use with HDTV, including the new video  
disc formats Blu-ray and HD DVD, this is the latest mul-  
tichannel audio format from Dolby. It supports up to 7.1  
channels with 48kHz sampling rate.  
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.  
Dolby TrueHD  
Designed to take full advantage of the additional storage  
space offered by the new Blu-ray and HD DVD disc for-  
mats, this new Dolby format offers up to 7.1 discrete  
channels of digital audio with 48/96 kHz, up to 5.1-chan-  
nels with 192 kHz sampling rate.  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
For the signals supported by the AV receiver, see page 71.  
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.  
DTS  
The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to  
5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for high-  
fidelity 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 96kHz sampling rate and 24-  
bit resolution, providing superior fidelity. Use it with  
DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.  
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).  
DTS-ES Discrete  
This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete soundtracks,  
that 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 360-  
degree 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 Dis-  
crete soundtrack.  
Dolby PLIIx Game  
Use this mode with video games, especially those  
that bear the Dolby Pro Logic II logo.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes  
DTS-ES Matrix  
This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix soundtracks,  
that use a matrix-encoded back-channel for 6.1/7.1-  
channel playback. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-  
ES logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix  
soundtrack.  
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.  
DTS Neo:6  
Orchestra  
This mode expands any 2-channel source for 7.1-chan-  
nel 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.  
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.  
Neo:6 Cinema  
Unplugged  
Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV,  
DVD, VHS).  
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.  
Neo:6 Music  
Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g.,  
CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).  
Studio-Mix  
Suitable for rock or pop music, listening to music in this  
mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acous-  
tic image, like being at a club or rock concert.  
5.1-channel source + Neo:6  
This mode uses Neo:6 to expand 5.1-channel sources for  
6.1/7.1-channel playback.  
TV Logic  
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio  
This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows pro-  
duced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire  
sound, and clarity to voices.  
Developed for use with HDTV, including the new video  
disc formats Blu-ray and HD DVD, this is the latest mul-  
tichannel audio format from DTS. It supports up to 7.1  
channels with 96 kHz sampling rate.  
All Ch Stereo  
Ideal for background music, this mode fills the entire lis-  
tening area with stereo sound from the front, surround,  
and surround back speakers.  
DTS-HD Master Audio  
Designed to take full advantage of the additional storage  
space offered by the new Blu-ray and HD DVD disc for-  
mats, this new DTS format offers up to 7.1 discrete chan-  
nels of digital audio with 48/96 kHz, up to 5.1-channels  
with 192 kHz sampling rate.  
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.  
For the signals supported by the AV receiver, see  
page 72.  
T-D (Theater-Dimensional)  
or  
DTS Express  
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.  
This format supports up to 5.1 channels and a lower sam-  
pling rate of 48 kHz. Applications include interactive  
audio and commentary encoding for HD DVD Sub  
Audio and Blu-ray SecondaryAudio.Also broadcast and  
media servers.  
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 multi-  
channel audio.

Recording  
This section explains how to record the input source and  
how to record audio and video from separate sources.  
Recording from Different AV Sources  
You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by  
simultaneously recording audio and video from two sep-  
arate 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 con-  
nected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder con-  
nected to the AUX Input Video jack are recorded by the  
VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.  
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.  
• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be  
recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.  
• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t  
attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.  
Recording the Input Source  
Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cas-  
sette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TAPE OUT jack.  
Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g.,  
VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

You can watch the source while record-  
ing it. The AV receiver’s Master Vol-

Center Width  
Dolby EX Settings  
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 cen-  
ter). This setting controls the front left, right, and center

channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0 to 7. The default  
value is 3.  
Dolby EX  
This setting determines how Dolby EX signals are han-  
dled.  
Auto: When the source is Dolby EX, you can select  
the Dolby EX listening mode.

Neo:6 Music  
Theater-Dimensional Setting  
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.  
Listening Angle  
With this setting, you can optimize the Theater-Dimen-  
sional 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 equi-  
distant from the listening position and at an angle close  
to one of the two available settings.  
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 attenu-  
ated, maintaining the original stereo balance.

Audio TV Out  
Control  
This setting determines whether audio received by an  
HDMI input is output by the HDMI outputs. You may  
want to change this setting to On if your TV is connected  
to an HDMI output and you want to listen to audio from  
an HDMI component through your TV’s speakers. Nor-  
mally, it should be set to Off.  
This function allows RIHD-compatible components  
connected via HDMI to be controlled with the AV  
receiver.  
Disable: RIHD disabled.  
Enable: RIHD enabled.  
Notes:  
Off: HDMI audio is not output (default).  
On: HDMI audio is output.  
• RIHD, which stands for Remote Interactive over  
HDMI, is the name of the system control function  
found on Integra/Onkyo components. The AV receiver  
can be used with CEC (Consumer Electronics Con-  
trol), which allows system control over HDMI and is  
part of the HDMI standard. CEC provides interopera-  
bility between various components, however, opera-  
tion with components other than RIHD-compatible  
components and recommended components cannot be  
guaranteed.  
Notes:  
• If On is selected and the signal can be output by the  
TV, the AV receiver will output no sound through its  
speakers.  
• When TV Control is enabled, this setting is set to  
Auto.  
• With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be  
output even if On is selected.  
• Select Disable if a connected component is incompat-  
ible or you’re not sure about its compatibility.  
• When the Audio TV Out setting is set to On, or TV  
Control is set to Enable and you’re listening through  
your TV’s speakers (see page 32), if you turn up the  
AV receiver’s volume control, the sound will be output  
by the AV receiver’s speakers. To stop the AV  
receiver’s speakers producing sound, change the set-  
tings, change your TV’s settings, or turn down the AV  
receiver’s volume.  
• If operation is unreliable when set to Enable, select  
Disable instead.  
Power Control  
To link the power functions of RIHD-compatible com-  
ponents connected via HDMI, select Enable.  
Disable: Power Control disabled.  
Enable: Power Control enabled.  
Lip Sync  
The Lip Sync function can automatically synchronize  
HDMI audio and video that’s gotten out of sync due to  
the complex digital video processing being performed by  
your HDMI-compatible TV. With HDMI Lip Sync, the  
audio delay required to synchronize the audio and video  
is calculated and applied automatically by the AV  
receiver.  
Notes:  
• The Power Control setting can be set only when the  
above Control setting is set to Enable.  
• HDMI power control only works with RIHD-compat-  
ible components that support it and may not work  
properly with some components due to their settings  
or compatibility.  
Disable: HDMI lip sync disabled.  
Enable: HDMI lip sync enabled.  
• When set to Enable, the AV receiver consumes more  
power.  
Notes:  
• This function works only if your HDMI-compatible  
TV supports HDMI Lip Sync.  
• When set to Enable, the AV receiver enters Ready  
mode when set to Standby, and the Standby indicator  
lights up.  
You can check the amount of delay being applied by  
the HDMI Lip Sync function on the A/V Sync screen  
(see page 87).  
• When set to Enable, regardless of whether the AV  
receiver is On or on Standby, both audio and video  
received by an HDMI input will be output by the  
HDMI OUT for playback on the TV or other compo-  
nent that’s connected to the HDMI OUT.  
x.v.Color  
If your HDMI source and HDMI-compatible TV both  
support the “x.v.Color,” you can enable “x.v.Color” on  
the AV receiver with this setting.  
Disable: “x.v.Color” disabled.  
Enable: “x.v.Color” enabled.

trigger delay is eliminating the “thump” noise that’s  
sometimes heard when a source component is turned on.

• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 82).  
• While Powered Zone 2 is being used, playback in the  
round back speakers produce no sound (page 94).  
About DTS signals  
• 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.  
• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit-  
stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listen-  
ing mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to  
prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or  
fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your  
player from DTS to PCM, as the AV receiver does not  
switch formats immediately, you may not hear any-  
thing, in which case you should stop your player for  
about 3 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.  
The subwoofer produces no sound  
• If the source material contains no audio in the LFE  
channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.  
• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 82).  
The Zone 2 speakers produce no sound  
• The Zone 2 speakers only output sources that are con-  
nected to an analog input. Check to see if the source  
component is connected to an analog input.  
• Powered Zone 2 cannot be used if Speaker Type is set  
to Bi-Amp (page 43).  
There’s no sound with a certain signal format  
• Check the digital audio output setting on the source  
component. On some game consoles, such as those  
that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.  
• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an  
audio format from a menu or with theAudio button on  
your DVD player’s remote controller.  
The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN  
can’t be heard  
• Since it takes longer to identify the format of an  
HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio sig-  
nals, sound may not be output immediately.  
Can’t get 6.1- or 7.1-channel playback  
• While Powered Zone 2 is being used, playback in the  
main room is reduced to 5.1-channels and the sur-  
round back speakers produce no sound (page 94).  
Video  
• Check to see if a maximum volume has been set  
(page 88).  
• After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has been  
run, or the volume level of each individual speaker has  
ume may be reduced.  
• When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted  
(page 85), the maximum possible volume may be  
reduced.  
• When the Equalizer setting (page 86) is set to Audys-  
sey, the maximum possible volume is reduced by  
6 dB.

• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV  
receiver’s display, this indicates that your TV does not  
support the current video resolution and you need to  
select another resolution on your DVD player.  
Recording  
Can’t record  
• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is  
selected.  
• To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV  
receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs  
with the same name (e.g., TAPE IN to TAPE OUT or  
VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers  
from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t

• Relocate your antenna.  
• Move the AV receiver away from your TV or com-  
puter.  
• When listening to anAM station, operating the remote  
controller may cause noise.  
• Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.  
• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.  
• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor  
antenna.

Troubleshooting—Continued  
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 5 seconds, and then plug it back  
in again.  
Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall out-  
let, set the AV receiver to Standby.  
Integra/Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as  
CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused  
by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important  
data, make sure that the material will be recorded cor-  
rectly.  
Important Note Regarding Video Playback  
The AV receiver can upconvert component video, S-Video, and composite video sources for display on a  
TV connected to the HDMI OUT. However, if the picture quality of the source is poor, upconversion may  
make the picture worse or disappear altogether.  
In this case, try setting the HDMI Output Resolution setting (page 90) to 480p or 720p. If that doesn’t  
improve the picture quality, try the following:  
1. If the video source is connected to a component video input,  
connect your TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.  
If the video source is connected to an S-Video input,  
connect your TV to an S-Video output.  
If the video source is connected to a composite video input,  
connect your TV to a composite video output.  
2. On the main menu, select “1. Input Assign,”  
and then select “1. HDMI Input.”  
Select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “-----” (page 44).  
3. On the main menu, select “1. Input Assign,”  
and then select “2. Component Video Input” (page 45):  
If the video source is connected to COMPONENT VIDEO IN 1,  
select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “IN1.”  
If the video source is connected to COMPONENT VIDEO IN 2,  
select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “IN2.”  
If the video source is connected to an S-Video input or composite video input,  
select the relevant input selector, and assign it to “-----”.
