Precautions  
1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use  
only, recording copyrighted material is illegal with-  
out permission of the copyright holder.  
2. AC Fuse— The AC fuse inside the AV receiver is  
not user-serviceable. If you cannot turn on the AV  
receiver, contact your Onkyo dealer.  
3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the AV  
receiver all over with a soft cloth. For stubborn  
stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solu-  
tion of mild detergent and water. Dry the AV  
receiver 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.  
For U.S. Models  
Note to CATV system installer:  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system  
installer’s attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which  
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in partic-  
ular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected  
to the grounding system of the building, as close to the  
point of cable entry as practical.  
FCC Information for User  
CAUTION:  
The user changes or modifications not expressly  
approved by the party responsible for compliance could  
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.  
4. Power  
WARNING  
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.  
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE  
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION  
CAREFULLY.  
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-  
tion against harmful interference in a residential instal-  
lation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate  
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful  
interference to radio communications. However, there is  
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a partic-  
ular installation.  
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to  
radio or television reception, which can be determined  
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour-  
aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of  
the following measures:  
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make  
sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage  
requirements printed on the AV receiver’s rear panel  
(e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).  
For Worldwide model  
The Worldwide model has a voltage selector for com-  
patibility with power systems around the world. Before  
you plug in this model, make sure that the voltage selec-  
tor is set to the correct voltage for your area.  
If it isn’t, use a small screwdriver to set it as appropriate.  
For example, if the voltage in your area is 120 volts, set  
the selector to “120V.” And if it’s between 220 and 230  
volts, set it to “220-230V.”  
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.  
For Canadian model  
NOTE: THIS CLASS B DIGITAL APPARATUS  
For American and Australian models

nected to an  
jack on another Onkyo AV compo-  
nent. The AV receiver’s remote controller can then  
be used to control that component. To use  
, you  
must make an analog audio connection (RCA)

Remote Controller  
Installing the Batteries  
Using the Remote Controller  
To use the remote controller, point it at the AV receiver’s  
remote control sensor, as shown below.  
To open the battery compartment, press  
the small hollow and slide off the cover.

Remote control sensor  
30˚  
30˚  
Insert the three supplied batteries (AA/R6)  
2
in accordance with the polarity diagram  
inside the battery compartment.  
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.  
Put the cover onto the remote controller  
and slide it shut.  
3
• 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.  
• 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:  
• The batteries should last for about six months,  
although this will vary with usage.  
• 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.

About Home Theater  
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. With DVDs you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With  
analog and digital TV you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx or Onkyo’s own DSP surround listening modes.  
With the TX-SR702/702E you can enjoy DVDs that feature THX Surround EX (THX-certified THX speaker system  
recommended).  
Front left and right speakers  
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

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 equidistant from the  
listener.  
Center speaker  
This speaker enhances the front left  
and right speakers, making sound  
movements distinct and providing a  
full sound image. In 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  
subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third  
the width of the wall, as shown.  
Surround back left and right speakers  
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES  
Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, andTHX Surround EX (TX-SR702/702E only).  
They enhance the realism of surround sound and improve sound local-  
ization 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 plac-  
ing your subwoofer at various positions  
within the room, and choose the one that  
provides the most satisfying results.  
For the TX-SR702/702E, THX recommends  
that they be placed equidistant from the lis-  
tener, creating a triangle, and that the angle  
at the apex of the triangle is about 60  
degrees. Make sure that the listening posi-  
tion is within the range of the speakers.

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.  
Optical Digital Jacks  
The AV receiver’s optical digital jacks have shutter-type  
covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and  
close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.

Connecting a Powered Subwoofer  
ConnectingYour Speakers  
Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s SUB-  
WOOFER PRE OUT to an input on your powered sub-  
woofer, as shown. If your subwoofer is unpowered and  
you’re using an external amplifier, connect the SUB-  
WOOFER PRE OUT to an input on the amp.  
Speaker Configuration  
For the best surround-sound experience, you should con-  
nect seven speakers and a powered subwoofer.  
The following table indicates the channels you should  
use depending on the number of speakers that you have.

Attaching the Speaker Labels  
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered sub-  
woofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid  
bass.  
To get the best from your surround-sound system, you  
need to set the speaker settings by using the supplied  
setup microphone (see page 39).  
The AV receiver’s positive (+) speaker terminals are  
color-coded for ease of identification. (The negative (–)  
speaker terminals are all black.)

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 the TV/screen, while the sur-  
round left and right dipolar speakers should be positioned  
so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Speaker Connection Precautions  
Connecting the Speaker Cables  
Read the following before connecting your speakers:  
American model only: Only 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 levels for a long period of time, the built-in  
protection circuit may be activated.  
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 Mini-  
mum Speaker Impedance to “4 ohms” (see page 44).  
If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use

Connecting the AV receiver—Continued  
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied  
indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available out-  
door FM antenna instead (see page 25).  
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.  
AM antenna push terminals

Connect both wires of the AM loop  
antenna to the AM push terminals, as  
shown.

2
The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.  
(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.  
Attach the FM antenna, as shown.

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.  
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.  
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from  
your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power  
cords.  
Use thumbtacks or something similar to  
fix the FM antenna into position.

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 25).

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.

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 two connections—one for audio, one for video.  
Video Connection Formats  
Audio 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, or component video, the  
latter offering the best picture quality.  
A video signal connected to a V or S IN jack will be con-  
verted—composite video to S-Video or S-Video to com-  
posite video—but only for the MONITOR OUT jacks,  
not the VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2 OUT V and S jacks.  
Note: The TX-SR702/702E, TX-SR602E, and Austra-  
lian TX-SR602 can be set to upconvert composite video  
and S-Video input signals and output them from the  
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (see page 43).  
Audio equipment can be connected to the AV receiver by  
using any of the following audio connection formats:  
analog, optical, coaxial, or multichannel.  
When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that  
the AV receiver doesn’t convert between them. For  
example, audio signals connected to an OPTICAL or  
COAXIAL input are not output by the analog TAPE  
OUT.

Notes:  
• If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the  
AV receiver’s GND screw. With some turntables, con-  
necting the ground wire may produce an audible hum.  
If this happens, disconnected it.  
• If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type car-  
tridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head  
amp or MC transformer. Connect your turntable to the  
head amp or transformer, and then connect that to the  
AV receiver’s PHONO IN L/R jacks.  
Turntable with an MC (Moving Coil) Cartridge  
Use an analog audio cable to connect an unused audio  
input on the AV receiver to the audio outputs on your  
phono preamp. Use another analog audio cable to con-  
nect the phono preamp’s inputs to your MC head amp’s  
outputs. And use another analog audio cable to connect  
the MC head amp’s inputs to your turntable, as shown.  
You can also use a phono equalizer to connect a turn-  
table with an MC-type cartridge. In this case, see the  
phono equalizer’s manual for details.  
For the TX-SR602/602E/8260

With  
(Remote Interactive) you can control your  
-compatible Onkyo CD player, DVD player, and so  
on with the AV receiver’s remote controller, as follows:  
If you want to connect a more powerful power amplifier  
and use the AV receiver as a preamp, you can connect  
one to the PRE OUT jacks. In this case, you should con-  
nect all speakers and the subwoofer to that power ampli-  
fier. However, if you have a powered subwoofer, connect  
it to this AV receiver’s PRE OUT SUBWOOFER jack.  
To use  
, you must make an analog audio con-  
nection between the AV receiver and the other AV  
components, even if they are connected digitally.  
Auto Power On/Standby  
When you start playback on an AV component con-  
nected via  
, if the AV receiver is in Standby, it will  
turn on and select thatAV component as the input source  
automatically. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to  
Standby, all components connected via  
also enter  
Standby. Note that this function will not work if the com-  
ponent’s power cord is connected to one of the AV  
receiver’s AC OUTLETS.  
Direct Change  
When playback is started on an AV component con-  
nected via

About the Onscreen Setup Menus  
The AV receiver is configured using onscreen setup menus, which are displayed on the TV that’s connected to either of  
the MONITOR OUT jacks. Because they appear on your TV, they’re large and clear, making setup a breeze.  
Settings are divided into two groups: Basic Setup and Advanced Setup.  
When you’ve configured the settings on the Basic Setup menu correctly, you’ll be ready to enjoy movies and music. The  
Advanced Setup menu contains more detailed settings for an even better sound and increased enjoyment.

About the Listening Modes  
Dolby Pro Logic II Music  
Use this mode to add 5.1 surround to stereo sources such  
as music CDs and DVDs.  
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.  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
If you connect two surround back speakers (i.e., left and  
right), both will be used for 6.1-channel surround play-  
back.  
If you’ve connected surround back speakers to the AV  
receiver, Dolby Pro Logic IIx allows you to enjoy 7.1-  
channel playback from 2-channel or 5.1-channel music  
or movies. Dolby Pro Logic IIx provides a well defined,  
natural multichannel surround-sound experience, put-  
ting the listener in a seamless envelope of sound. The  
added drama and natural sound enhance the listening  
experience with CDs, movies, and games.  
The AV receiver’s surround indicators show which  
speakers are active in each listening mode.  
Front left  
Center  
Front right  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx has three modes of operation:  
Movie mode for movies, Music mode for listening to  
music, and Game mode for use with games consoles  
with 2-channel stereo outputs.  
Subwoofer  
Surround Surround Surround

Dolby Digital  
Direct  
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.  
The selected input source is output by the front left and  
right speakers only, with minimal processing for a pure  
sound.  
Pure Audio  
Dolby Digital EX  
As an extension of Direct mode, this mode turns off the  
display, turns off the power to the video circuitry, and  
minimizes any other possible noise sources, providing a  
high fidelity sound that’s true to the original. (Since the  
power to the video circuitry is turned off, no video sig-  
nals are output while this mode is selected.)  
With an added surround-back channel,  
this 6.1 channel format offers a heightened  
sense of space, for added realism with moving sounds,  
such as those that rotate 360 degrees or pass overhead.  
Dolby Digital EX material can also be played on conven-  
tional 5.1 channel systems, in which case the surround-  
back channel audio is split between the surround left and  
right channels. Use this mode with DVDs that have a  
5.1-channel soundtrack and bear the Dolby Digital logo.  
Stereo  
The selected input source is processed as a stereo signal  
and output by the front left and right speakers and the  
subwoofer.  
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  
player in order to enjoy DTS material. Use this mode  
with DVDs, LDs, or CDs that bear the DTS logo.  
Mono  
or  
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.  
T-D (Theater-Dimensional)  
or  
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.  
DTS 96/24  
This mode provides higher audio quality.  
Use it with CDs, DVDs, and LDs that bear  
the DTS 96/24 logo.  
DTS-ES Discrete  
Dolby Pro Logic II Movie  
This is DTS with an added surround back  
channel for 6.1 surround sound. Use it with  
program material recorded in DTS 6.1 format. With the  
additional surround back channel, this format offers 6.1  
fully independent digital channels, providing a realistic  
sense of movement and space. Use it with program mate-  
rial recorded in DTS 6.1, such as CDs, DVDs, or LDs  
that bear the DTS-ES logo.  
Use this mode with DVDs and vid-  
eos that bear the Dolby Surround  
logo or TV programs that feature Dolby Surround. You  
can also use this mode with stereo movies or TV pro-  
grams and the AV receiver will create a 5.1 surround mix  
from the 2-channel stereo.

Onkyo Original DSP Modes  
DTS-ES Matrix  
This is DTS with an added surround back  
channel for 6.1 surround sound. Use it to  
provide 6.1 channel surround playback  
with program material recorded in DTS 5.1  
format. Since DTS 5.1 program material  
contains surround back channel informa-  
tion, all channels can be reconstructed for 6.1-channel  
playback. Use this mode with CDs, DVDs, or LDs that  
bear the DTS-ES or DTS logo.  
Orchestra  
or  
Suitable for classical or operatic music. The center  
speaker is turned off and the surround channels are  
emphasized in order to widen the stereo image. In addi-  
tion, it simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.  
Unplugged  
Suitable for acoustic instrument sounds, vocals, and jazz  
music. By emphasizing the front stereo image, it simu-  
lates the stage-front experience.  
Neo:6  
This mode provides 6.1-channel playback from 2-chan-  
nel sources. It offers six full-bandwidth channels with  
excellent separation. There are two modes of operation:  
Cinema mode for movies, and Music mode for listening  
to music.  
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.  
TV Logic  
Cinema mode simulates the realistic sense of movement  
that you get with 6.1-channel surround sound sources.  
Use this mode with videos, DVDs, and TV programs that  
feature stereo sound.  
Adds realistic acoustics to TV programs produced in a  
TV studio. In addition, it adds surround effects to the  
entire sound and adds clarity to voices.  
Enhance  
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.  
This mode is ideal for enjoying music programs or TV  
sports programs. It provides a natural surround sound  
with movement in the surround back speakers, creating  
a sound with a live feeling to it.  
THX Cinema (TX-SR702/702E only)  
or  
Mono Movie  
THX Ltd, founded by George Lucas, develops quality  
assurance programs for ensuring that movies are repro-  
duced in movie theaters and home theaters just as the  
director intended. THX technology is used to eliminate  
spatial errors that can occur when a movie soundtrack is  
adapted for use in smaller home theaters, ensuring faith-  
ful reproduction.  
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.  
All Ch Stereo  
Ideal for background music. The front, surround, and  
surround back channels create a stereo image that fills  
the entire listening area.  
This mode is ideal for watching a movie with a  
soundtrack recorded and edited especially for playback  
in the spaciousness of a typical movie theater.  
Full Mono  
THX Surround EX (TX-SR702/702E only)  
In this mode, all speakers output mono audio, so the  
music sounds the same regardless of where you are.  
THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX is a  
joint development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX  
Ltd.  
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been  
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology  
are able to reproduce an extra surround back channel  
which has been added during the mixing of the program.

Recording Separate AV Sources  
You can record AV input sources to an AV recording  
component (VCR, etc) connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT  
or VIDEO 2 OUT. See pages 27–38 for information on  
connecting components.  
Here you can record audio and video from completely  
separate 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.  
In the following example, audio from the CD player con-  
nected to the CD IN, and video from the camcorder con-  
nected to theVIDEO 4 INPUTVIDEO jack are recorded  
by the VCR connected to the VIDEO 1 OUT jacks.

a. Output Channel  
d. Center Image  
This setting determines which speakers are used to out-  
put mono audio when the Mono listening mode is used.  
L/R: Mono audio is output from the front left and  
right speakers (default).  
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 (default  
is 3).  
Center: Mono audio is output from the center speaker.  
b. Academy (TX-SR702/702E only)  
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.  
Early movies had a mono soundtrack that suffered from  
audible hiss and a poor high-frequency response due to  
the quality of the film. To improve matters, the high-fre-  
quencies were boosted before being recorded onto film,  
and then attenuated to their original levels during play-  
back in the movie theater. Some old movies have been  
transferred to newer distribution media without the high  
frequencies being attenuated, creating a harsh sound  
with pronounced hiss. With theAcademy Filter, which is  
based on the playback techniques used in those days, you  
can attenuate those high-frequencies to their original lev-  
els and enjoy the movie as it was intended to be heard.  
On: Academy Filter on.  
4-3. Enhance, 4-4. Orchestra, 4-5.  
Unplugged, 4-6. Studio-Mix, 4-7.TV Logic

These settings apply to the Onkyo original DSP listening  
modes.  
a. Front Effect  
Off: Academy Filter off (default).  
With this setting, you can turn off the reverb for the front  
speakers. This is useful when playing live material that  
already contains live reverberation and the reverb added  
by the DSP listening mode simply blurs the original  
sound. When the Front Effect is turned off, no reverb is  
added to the front left, right, and center speakers and the  
original reverberation can be heard as it is.  
On: Front Effect on (default).  
4-2. PLIIx/Neo:6  
If no surround back speakers are connected, this item  
will be “PLII/Neo:6” instead of “PLIIx/Neo:6.”  
a. Panorama  
With this function, you can broaden the width of the  
front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
Music listening mode.  
Off: Front Effect off.  
On: Panorama function on.  
Off: Panorama function off (default).  
b. Reverb Level  
With this setting, you can adjust the amount of reverb to  
suit your listening environment, source material, and so  
on. The available settings are: Low, Middle (default),  
and High.  
b. Dimension  
With this setting, you can move the sound field forward  
or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music  
listening mode. The default setting is 3. Higher settings  
move the sound field forward. Lower settings move it  
backward.  
If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much  
surround sound, move the sound field forward to  
improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image  
feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround  
sound, move it backward.  
c. Reverb Time  
With this setting, you can adjust the reverb time to suit  
your listening environment, source material, and so on.  
The available settings are: Short, Middle (default), and  
Long.  
c. Center Width  
With this function, you can adjust the width of the sound  
from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic  
IIx Music listening mode. If you’re using a center  
speaker, with Dolby Pro Logic IIx, the center channel  
sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re not  
using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be  
distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a  
phantom center). This setting controls the front left,  
right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight

Using the 12V Trigger  
Using a Multiroom Kit with a Cabinet  
When Zone 2 is turned on, the ZONE 2 12V TRIGGER  
OUT outputs 12 volts (100 milliamperes max). By con-  
necting this jack to the 12-volt trigger input on, say, a  
power amp in Zone 2, that power amp will turn on and  
off automatically as and when Zone 2 is turned on and  
off on the AV receiver.  
In the following diagram, an IR receiver picks up the  
infrared signals from the remote controller and feeds  
them to the AV receiver in the cabinet via the connecting  
block.

Learning Commands from Another  
Remote Controller  
Point the remote controllers at  
each other, about 2 to 6 inches  
(5–15 cm) apart, and then, on the  
other remote controller,press the  
button whose command you  
want to learn.  
3
The AV receiver’s remote controller can learn the com-  
mands of other remote controllers simply by pointing  
them at each other. For example, by transmitting the Play  
command from your CD player’s remote controller, the  
remote controller can learn it and then transmit the same  
command when its Play [ ] button is pressed in CD  
mode.

To teach the AV receiver’s remote  
controller more new commands,  
repeat steps 2 and 3.  
4
Press the [ON] button when you’ve fin-  
ished.  
Notes:  
• The following buttons cannot be taught new com-  
mands: REMOTE MODE, MACRO [1], [2], [3], TV  
1
[
[
], TV [INPUT], TV CH [+]/[–], TV VOL [ ]/  
].  
• The AV receiver’s remote controller can learn up to  
approximately 150 commands. However, the com-  
mands of some remote controllers may use a lot of  
memory, in which case, this will be reduced.  
• By default, the AV receiver’s remote controller knows  
the commands for controlling an Onkyo CD player,  
cassette deck, DVD player, and MD player (e.g., Play,  
Stop, Pause, etc., buttons). These buttons can learn  
new commands, although the defaults will be restored  
if the remote controller is reset.  
While holding down the REMOTE  
MODE button that you want to  
learn the command, press the  
[ON] button.  
1
2
• To learn a new command for a button that has already  
learned one, simply repeat this procedure.  
• Like most remote controllers, the AV receiver’s  
remote controller uses infrared. Commands from  
remote controllers that don’t use infrared cannot be  
learnt.  
ON  
• When the remote controller’s batteries expire, all  
learned commands will be lost and will have to be  
learned all over again, so don’t discard your other  
remote controllers.  
On the AV receiver’s remote con-  
troller, press the button you want  
to learn the new command.

On the remote controller, press  
the buttons whose actions you  
want to program into the macro  
in the order you want them per-  
formed.  
For example, to program the previous  
CD example into a macro, press the fol-  
lowing buttons: REMOTE MODE  
[RECEIVER], [ON], INPUT SELEC-  
TOR [CD], REMOTE MODE [CD],  
Play [ ].  
2
With the Macro function, you can program the remote  
controller’s MACRO buttons to perform a sequence of  
actions with just one button press. For example, nor-  
mally you need to perform the following actions to play  
a CD:  
[RECEIVER] button  
1. Press the REMOTE MODE  
to select Receiver mode.  
2. Press the [ON] button to turn on the AV receiver.  
3. Press the [CD] INPUT SELECTOR button to  
select the CD input source.  
4. Press the REMOTE MODE [CD] button to select  
the CD remote controller mode.  
5. Press the Play [ ] button to start playback on the  
CD player.  
When you’ve finished, press the  
MACRO button again.  
3
Notes:  
With the Macro function, you can program one of the  
MACRO buttons to perform all five actions in one go.  
• If after programming a macro you teach one of the  
buttons in that macro a new command, then the macro  
will no longer work properly. In this case, you must  
program the macro again.  
Making Macros  
There are three MACRO buttons, and each button can be  
programmed with a different macro in each remote con-  
troller mode. Each macro can perform up to eight  
actions.  
Running Macros  
Programmed macros can be run as follows.  
Press the MACRO [1], [2], or [3]  
button.  
1
The actions in the macro are performed  
in the order in which they were pro-  
grammed.

Troubleshooting  
If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a  
solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue  
yourself, contact your Onkyo dealer.  
• For the TX-SR702/702E, if your turntable uses an MC  
cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp or an  
MC transformer (see page 36).  
• Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent,  
twisted, or damaged.  
Power  
• Not all listening modes use all speakers (page 62).  
• Specify the speaker distances (page 48) and adjust the  
individual speaker levels (page 50).  
• Make sure that the speaker setup microphone is not  
still connected.  
Can’t turn on the AV receiver?  
• Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into  
the wall outlet.  
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five  
seconds or more, then plug it in again.  
Only the front speakers produce sound?  
• When the Stereo listening mode is selected, only the  
front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.  
• When the Direct or Pure Audio (not all models) listen-  
ing mode is selected, only the front speakers produce  
sound.  
The AV receiver turns off as soon as it’s turned  
on?  
• The amp protection circuit has been activated.  
Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immedi-  
ately and contact your Onkyo dealer.  
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly  
(page 46).  
Audio  
Only the center speaker produces sound?  
• If you use the Pro Logic IIx Movie or Pro Logic IIx  
Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an  
AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound is  
concentrated in the center speaker.  
There’s no sound, or it’s very quiet?  
• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed  
in all the way (page 21).  
• Make sure that the inputs and outputs of all compo-  
nents are connected properly (page 21).  
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly  
(page 46).  
• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is  
correct, and that the bare wires are in contact with  
metal part of each speaker terminal (page 23)  
• Make sure that the input source is properly selected  
(page 53).  
• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.  
• Check the volume. It can be set to MIN, 1 through 99,  
or MAX (page 53). The AV receiver is designed for  
home theater enjoyment. It has a wide volume range,  
allowing precise adjustment.  
• If the MUTING indicator is shown on the display,  
press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to  
unmute the AV receiver (page 54).  
• While a pair of headphones is connected to the  
PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers  
(page 54).  
• Check the digital audio output setting on the con-  
nected device. On some games consoles, such as those  
that support DVD, the default setting is off.  
• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an  
audio output format from a menu.  
• For the TX-SR602/602E and TX-SR8260, if your  
turntable doesn’t have a built-in phono preamp, you  
must connect one between it and the AV receiver. If  
your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must con-  
nect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and  
phono equalizer.  
The surround speakers produce no sound?  
• When the Stereo, Direct, or Pure Audio (not all mod-  
els) listening mode is selected, the surround speakers  
produce no sound (page 62).  
• Depending on the source and current listening mode,  
not much sound may be produced by the surround  
speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.  
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly  
(page 46).  
The center speaker produces no sound?  
• When the Mono, Stereo, Direct, Pure Audio (not all  
models), or Orchestra listening mode is selected, the  
center speaker produces no sound (page 63).  
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly  
(page 46).  
The surround back speakers produce no  
sound?  
• The surround back speakers are not used with all lis-  
tening modes. Select another listening mode  
(page 62).  
• Not much sound may be produced by the surround  
back speakers with some sources.  
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly  
(page 46).

TX-NR702,602_En.book Page 91 Tuesday, September 7, 2004 1:18 PM  
Troubleshooting—Continued  
The subwoofer produces no sound?  
• When you play source material that contains no infor-  
mation in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces  
no sound.  
• Make sure the speakers are configured correctly  
(page 46).  
About DTS signals  
• 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, 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 play-  
back.  
• With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to  
playback DTS material properly even though your  
player is connected 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 recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such  
cases, you may hear noise.  
There’s no sound with a certain signal format?  
• Check the digital audio output setting on the con-  
nected device. On some games consoles, such as those  
that support DVD, the default setting is off.  
• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an  
audio output format from a menu.  
• Depending on the input signal, some listening modes  
cannot be selected (page 61).  
Can’t select the DTS-ES Discrete/Matrix orTHX  
Surround EX (TX-SR702/702E only) listening  
modes?  
• These modes cannot be selected when no surround  
back speakers are connected, or the Zone 2 speakers  
are being used.  
• 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.  
Can’t get 6.1 playback?  
• If no surround back speakers are connected, or the  
Zone 2 speakers are being used, 6.1 playback is not  
possible.  
Video  
The volume cannot be set to 99?  
• When the levels of all speakers have been calibrated  
(page 50), the maximum volume setting may change.  
There’s no picture?  
• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed  
in all the way (page 21).  
Noise can be heard?  
• Make sure that each video component is properly con-  
nected.  
• If your video component is connected to a component  
video input, your TV must be connected to the compo-  
nent video output (page 26).  
• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power  
cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the  
audio performance, so don’t do it.  
• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try  
repositioning your cables.  
Models other than the TX-SR702/702E, TX-SR602E,  
and Australian TX-SR602 do not support video upcon-  
version, so composite video and S-Video sources are  
not output by the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.  
The Late Night function doesn’t work?  
• Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital  
(page 64).  
• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which  
the AV receiver is connected is selected.  
• While the Pure Audio listening mode (not all models)  
is selected, the video circuits are turned off and the AV  
receiver outputs no video signals.  
The DVD analog multichannel input doesn’t  
work?  
• Check the DVD analog multichannel input connec-  
tions (page 29).  
• To select the DVD analog multichannel input, press  
the [MULTI CH] input selector button.  
• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.  
The onscreen menus don’t appear?  
• Make sure that the video settings are correct  
(page 43).  
• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which  
the AV receiver is connected is selected.  
• Depending on the display device, when the “b. Scan  
Mode” setting on the “6-3. OSD Setup” menu is set to  
Non-Interlaced, the onscreen setup menus may not  
appear. If this happens, use the AV receiver’s display  
and change that setting to Interlaced.

Troubleshooting—Continued  
• Are you trying to learn from a remote controller that  
cannot be used for learning? Some commands cannot  
be learnt, especially those that transmit several  
instructions with a single button press.  
• The wrong remote control code has been entered.  
• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If  
more than one code is listed, try each one.  
• With some AV components, certain buttons may not  
work as expected, and some may not work at all.  
• To control Onkyo components, point the remote con-  
troller at the AV receiver.  
Tuner  
Reception is noisy, FM stereo reception is  
noisy, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t  
appear?  
• Relocate your antenna.  
• Move the AV receiver away from your TV or com-  
puter.  
• Listen to the station in mono (page 56).  
• 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.  
• To control another manufacturer’s component, point  
the remote controller at that component.  
Recording  
Can’t record?  
• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is  
selected (e.g., digital or analog).  
Remote Controller  
The remote controller doesn’t work?  
• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the cor-  
rect polarity (page 13).  
Zone 2  
• Install new batteries. Don’t mix different types of bat-  
teries, or old and new batteries (page 13).  
• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far  
away from the AV receiver, and that there’s no  
obstruction between the remote controller and the AV  
receiver’s remote control sensor (page 13).  
• Make sure that the AV receiver is not subjected to  
direct sunshine or inverter-type fluorescent lights.  
Relocate if necessary.  
• If the AV receiver is installed in a rack or cabinet with  
colored-glass doors, the remote controller may not  
work reliably when the doors are closed.  
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control-  
ler mode (page 13).  
Zone 2 has turned off?  
• Was the Sleep function set? The Sleep function turns  
off Zone 2 as well as the AV receiver. To set the Sleep  
function for Zone 2 only, see page 78.  
There’s no sound?  
• Since the Zone 2 function and the REC OUT outputs  
use the same circuitry, you cannot use Zone 2 and  
record at the same time. When the [REC OUT] button  
is pressed, Zone 2 is turned off.  
• Only components connected to analog inputs can be  
played in Zone 2.  
• When using the remote controller to control other  
manufacturersAV components, some buttons may  
not work as expected.  
• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control  
code.  
Can’t control other components?  
• If it’s an Onkyo component, make sure that the  
cable and analog audio cable are connected properly.  
Connecting only an  
cable won’t work (page 37).  
• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote control-  
ler mode (page 14).  
• If you connect an MD recorder or CD recorder to the  
TAPE jacks, be sure to set make the necessary setting  
(pages 52 and 80).  
• When learning commands, make sure that the trans-  
mitting ends of both remote controllers are pointing at  
each other.

Troubleshooting—Continued  
The AV receiver uses a battery-less memory backup  
system in order to retain radio presets and other set-  
tings when it’s unplugged or in the case of a power fail-  
ure. Although no batteries are required, the AV receiver  
must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the  
backup system.  
(On non-American and Australian models, the AV  
receiver’s POWER switch must be set to ON 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.  
Others  
The sound changes when I connect my head-  
phones?  
• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening  
mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo,  
Direct, or Pure Audio (not all models). When you dis-  
connect the headphones, the previous listening mode  
will be resumed.  
The speaker volume cannot be set as required?  
• When the Automatic Speaker Setup function is used,  
or the volume is adjusted on the onscreen setup  
menus, the maximum possible volume setting may  
change.  
The speaker distance cannot be set as  
required?  
• In some cases, corrected values suitable for home the-  
ater use may be set automatically.  
The display doesn’t work?  
• The display is turned off when the Pure Audio (not all  
models) listening mode is selected.  
• Actions are not displayed on the TV or projector that’s  
connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.  
How do I change the language of a multiplex  
source?  
• Use the “a. Input Channel” setting on the “3-5. Multi-  
plex” menu to select Main or Sub (page 69).  
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.  
Resetting the AV receiver to its factory defaults  
To reset the AV receiver 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 AV receiver will enter Standby mode.
