Precautions
1. Regional Restriction Codes (Region Number)
10. Notes on Handling
Regional restriction codes are built into DVD players and DVD
videos for each sales region. If the regional code of the DVD
Receiver does not match one of the regional codes on the DVD
video, playback is not possible.
• When shipping the unit, use the original shipping carton and
packing materials. For maximum protection, repack the unit as it
was originally packed at the factory.
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the unit.
Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit
for a long time. They will leave marks on the finish.
The regional number can be found on the rear panel of the DVD
Receiver. (e.g.
3
for Region 3)
2. About This Manual
• The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after a
long period of use.This is not a malfunction.
• When the unit is not in use, be sure to remove the disc and turn
off the power.
• If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not
function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit
occasionally.
This manual explains the basic procedures for operating the DVD
Receiver. Some DVD videos do not support the full potential of the
DVD technology.Your DVD Receiver may therefore not respond to
all operating commands. Refer to instruction notes on discs.
A “
” mark may appear on the TV screen during operation. It
means that the operation is not permitted by the DVD Receiver or
the disc.
11. To Obtain a Clear Picture
3. Warranty Claim
The unit is a high technology, precision device. If the optical pick-
up lens and disc drive parts are dirty or worn down, the picture
quality becomes poor. To obtain a clear picture, we recommend
regular inspection and maintenance (cleaning or parts
replacement) every 1,000 hours of use depending on the operating
environment. For details, contact your nearest dealer.
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of the unit. In
case of warranty claim, please report this number.
4. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is
illegal without permission of the copyright holder.
12. Notes on Moisture Condensation
5. AC Fuse
Moisture condensation damages the unit.
Please read the following carefully.
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-serviceable.
If power does not come on, contact your Onkyo authorized service
center.
• What is moisture condensation?
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a
cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on
the outside of the glass.In the same way, moisture may condense
on the optical pick-up lens inside the unit, one of the most crucial
internal parts of the unit.
6. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ
THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to
country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the
area where the unit will be used meets the required voltage
(AC220-230V 50/60Hz or AC120V 60Hz) written on the rear panel.
• Moisture condensation occurs in the following cases.
– When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm
place.
– When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on the
heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner
directly hits the unit.
– In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place
just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
– When you use the unit in a humid place.
7. Do not touch the unit with wet hands
Do not handle the unit or power cord (mains lead) when your hands
are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take
the unit to an authorized service center for inspection.
8. Location of the unit
• Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may occur.
If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and
internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord (mains
lead) of the unit to the wall outlet (the mains), turn on the unit,
and leave it for two or three hours. After a few hours, the unit will
have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit
connected to the wall outlet (the mains) and moisture
condensation will seldom occur.
• Place the unit in a well-ventilated location.
Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of
the unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation
is blocked, the unit may overheat and malfunction.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or heating units as the
unit's internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the
pickup.
• Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by
vibrations from the speakers. In particular, avoid placing the unit
on or above one of the speakers.
• Be sure the unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it
on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.
• When you place the unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback
picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In
this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.
9. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and
the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth
in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and
wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical
solvents or cloths since these could damage the finish or remove
the panel lettering.

Memory Preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation batteries.
A built-in memory power backup system preserves the
contents of memory during power failures and even when
the POWER switch is set to OFF.
The POWER switch must be set to ON in order to charge
the backups system. The memory preservation period
after the unit has been turned off varies depending on
climate and placement of the unit. On average, memory
contents are protected over a period of a few weeks after
the time the unit has been turned off. This period is
shorter when the unit is exposed to a very humid climate.

Standard speaker placement of the SPEAKERS A system
Speaker placement plays an important role in the reproduction of Surround sound. The placement of the speakers varies depending
on the size of the room and the wall coverings used in the room. The illustration below shows an example of a layout for standard
speaker placement. Refer to this example when you position the speakers in order to experience the best of Surround sound.
For ideal Surround effects, all speakers should be installed.

While listening to an FM program (see page 28), extend the antenna (aerial) and
move it in various directions until the clearest signal is received, then secure the
antenna (aerial) with push pins in the position with the least distortion.
Adjusting the position of the AM indoor antenna (aerial)
While listening to an AM program (see page 28), set the antenna (aerial) in the
direction and position where you receive the clearest sound.
Put it as far away as possible from the unit, TVs, speaker cables, and power cords
(mains leads).

Notes
• Install the antenna (aerial) well away from tall buildings and in an area where FM stations can directly be received.
• Keep the antenna (aerial) away from noise sources (neon signs, busy roads, etc.).
• It is dangerous to put the antenna (aerial) close to power lines. Keep it well away from power lines, transformers, etc.
• To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock, grounding is necessary. Follow item 19 of the "Important Safeguards" on page 2 when you install
the outdoor antenna (aerial).
Directional Iinkage
Do not use the same antenna (aerial) for both FM and TV (or VCR) reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere
with each other. If you must use a common FM/TV (or VCR) antenna (aerial), use a directional linkage type splitter.

Tip to obtain a higher quality picture
Before operating the remote
controller
Press MODE DVD.
Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a
normal broadcast may appear on the TV screen while
playing a DVD video because the high resolution pictures on
these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of
noise depends on the TV you use, you should generally
adjust the TV to reduce sharpness when viewing DVD
videos.

Enjoying the Sound Effects
The surround sound of the DVD Receiver enables you to enjoy the presence of a movie theater or concert hall in your room.
Before using any sound effect, make sure the Speaker Setup configurations have been set (see page 17).
The speaker configuration is very important for the surround sound. See "Connecting Speakers" on page 13 and "Positioning
Speakers" on page 12.
Following are the sound systems the DVD Receiver can reproduce.
DOLBY DIGITAL Surround and DTS (Digital
Theater System) Surround
DOLBY PRO LOGIC Surround
This surround format consists of four channels (left and right
front, center, and monaural surround channel). This format is
very effective for panning music, conversation, and three-
dimensional sound movement output from three front
channels. It also simulates the atmosphere and surround
effects of the sound reflected from the side and rear walls of
the theater.
Minimum required speaker system
Center Speaker
Left front speaker
Right front speaker
Left surround speaker
Right surround speaker
VHS video cassettes, VHS Hi-Fi video cassettes, LDs, and
DVD videos that have the
mark are suitable
sources for this listening mode.
This 5.1 channel digital surround format enables you to
individually play five full-range (20Hz-20kHz) channels (left
and right front, center, and two surround channels) plus an
LFE (Low Frequency Effect) channel for the low-range effect
sound. It will create a realistic sound like that heard in
theaters and concert halls.
Onkyo's original Digital Signal Processing

The DVD Receiver offers the following special Onkyo sound
effects for sources other than Dolby Digital and DTS sounds.

To playback DTS Surround sound from connected equipment
such as an LD player, you must make the digital connection
in addition to the above speaker configuration.
Studio-Mix
This mode is suitable for rock and popular music. Lively
sounds with a powerful acoustic image will make you feel as
if you are in a club.
Notes on DTS Surround
• If you play a DTS Surround encoded disc with the DVD Receiver,
or a DTS encoded disc using a digitally connected player, you may
hear a noise for a short while until the DTS decoder of the DVD
Receiver recognizes the DTS encoded signal and starts operating.
This is not a malfunction.
• If you play a DTS Surround source in fast reverse or fast forward,
pause, or skip a chapter or track, noise may be heard. This is not a
malfunction.
TV Logic
This mode offers the realistic acoustics of a TV program
being aired in the TV studio. It enhances the entire surround
sound and clarity of conversation.
All Ch Stereo
• Even when playback of the DTS Surround source stops and the
DTS signal transmission ends, the DVD Receiver remains in DTS
mode and the DTS indicator remains lit. This is to prevent noise
when you pause, fast forward, fast reverse, or skip a chapter or
track of the playback source. Therefore, if the source switches from
the DTS signal to a PCM (2 channel digital stereo) signal
immediately, the PCM signal may not be played. In such a case,
stop playback for about three seconds, then resume playback.
• Some CD players (if connected to the DVD Receiver) and LD
players may be unable to play DTS Surround sources correctly
even if you connect the player to the DVD Receiver digitally. In
such a case, the digital signals (such as the output level, sampling
frequency, frequency response, etc.) processed by the player
cannot be recognized as DTS data by the DVD Receiver and you
may hear noise instead of the proper sound.
This mode is useful for background music. The front and
surround channels will create a stereo image.

Listening Modes
The ideal home theater is realized by the multichannel sound
reproduction with the complete speaker configuration and
speaker positioning described on page 12. However,
sometimes it is difficult to meet all those conditions. In reality,
you may only have front speakers, or not be able to place the
surround speakers in position.
The available listening modes varies depending on the sound
type of the input source. The table below shows the
correlation between the input source types and listening
modes.
(× marked listening modes can be chosen with a particular
type of a source.)
Even if your speaker system is not complete, you can enjoy
the multichannel surround sound by using the Theater-
Dimensional mode. Theater-Dimensional mode sets the
output channels to generate the most suitable virtual
surround reproduction according to the number of the
speaker channels set in “Speaker Setup” on page 18 or 19.

The importance of the speaker setup
Calibrating each speaker’s sound pressure is essential for
home theater sound reproduction. The same thing can be
said for the virtual surround sound reproduction. Especially
level matching and the time alignment of the two speakers
that reproduce virtual surround signals becomes an even
more important factor than with normal multichannel
reproduction.

appropriate level matching.

Notes
* See “Using Dolby Pro Logic/Onkyo’s Original DSP Modes”
on page 38.
• For the input sources which include the surround channel signals
like multichannel DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS surround sounds, the
virtual processing is applied to those surround channel signals.
• For the 2 channel input sources, the surround channel elements
are automatically extracted with the DOLBY PRO LOGIC
processing before the virtual processing is applied.
• For the monaural or front 3 channel stereo sources, the virtual
surround effect does not work since those input sources do not
include the surround channel signals.
Notes
• To reproduce MPEG2 sounds from a DVD video, you need to
change the sound conversion method to “96k Sound” or “PCM.”
See “Reproducing MPEG2 Sounds from DVD Videos” on page 49.
– If you set the sound conversion method to “96k Sound,” then the
listening mode is set to “Stereo.”
– If you set the sound conversion method to “PCM,” then you can
choose the same listening modes as “Analog/PCM” in the above
table.
• The listening mode is set to “Stereo” when the PCM sound whose
sampling frequency is higher than 48kHz is played. Such high-
resolution sounds are reproduced from sources such as DVD
video.
• If you wish to set the listening mode to “Stereo” when playing DTS
sources, select “Speaker 2ch” by repeating the procedure in
“Selecting the number of speaker channels” on page 19. If any
setting other than “Speaker 2ch” is selected, some sources may
not reproduce desirable sound.
* Theater-Dimensional is a virtual surround technology
developed by Onkyo. This technology is approved by Dolby
Laboratories for the virtual surround processing of the
Virtual Dolby Digital and Virtual Dolby Surround products.

Enjoying the Sound Effects
Choosing Theater-Dimensional Mode
Theater-Dimensional mode is the technology which controls the characteristics of the sounds reaching the listener’s left and right
ears, therefore, there is a sweet spot where you can best experience the Theater-Dimensional effects.You need to adjust the
location of the sweet spot and these other factors for the best possible Theater-Dimensional effect.
The listening angle is the angle at the listening position where the two lines from the left and
right speakers meet.
Listening angle
(“Lisng. Angle” appears in the
display.)
You need to adjust the listening angle in the following cases:
Left speaker
Right speaker
• If you set the surround left and right speaker field to “0” on page 18, or
if you set “Speaker 2ch” or “Speaker 3ch” in “Speaker Setup” on page 19.
Consider the listening angle as being formed from the left and right front speakers since the
virtual surround signals are output from the front speakers.
R
L
R
L
Listening
angle
40°
• If you cannot place the surround speakers in the correct position.
20°
– Place each surround speaker on top of or on the outer side of each front speaker of the same side.
– Consider the listening angle as being formed from the left and right surround speakers since
the virtual surround signals are output from the surround speakers.
Set “Lisng. Angle” to one of the following settings, which you feel is most effective (the listening
angles in the parentheses are the ideal degrees):
• Normal (30°)
• Wide (40°)
• Narrow (20°)
The longer the distance
between the two speakers is,
the wider the angle is.
Theater-Dimensional controls the direct sounds from the speakers not the sounds reflected
from the walls. Therefore, if the distances between the speakers and the walls are too short
such as when the speaker system is placed in the corner of the room, and because of it, the
reflected sounds reach the listener’s ears too soon, the reflected sounds interfere with the
virtual surround sounds.
Corner mode
(“Corner” appears in the display.)
Wall
Wall
TV
R
Right
speaker
L
In such a case, set “Corner” to “On,” then the
CORNER indicator lights up in the display.
CORNER
Left
speaker
This may enhance the sound depending on the
situation.
(The factory setting is “Off,” which is the normal mode.)
Note
If the virtual surround sound is not enhanced with the corner mode, change the speaker positioning or
cover the walls with acoustic materials.
The listener should be on the center line between the left and right speakers. But if the situation
does not allow you to sit in such an ideal position, you can adjust the balance.
Balance mode
(“Balance” appears in the
display.)
Set “Balance” to one of the following 11 values, which you feel is most effective:
Left speaker
Right speaker
R+5, R+4, R+3, R+2, R+1, 0, L+1, L+2, L+3, L+4, and L+5.
The following tips may help you select the value:
• If the listener sits on the center line, then the factory setting “0” should be set as the balance, and
• If the listener sits on the right side of the center line towards the front speakers, select “L+.”
If the listener sits on the left side, select “R+.” A larger value should be selected as the
listening position becomes farther from the center line.
Notes
R+
L+
• The effect obtained with the balance adjustment may become less effective compared to the effect you
obtain when you are actually on the center line.
• If the listening position is too far from the center line, the balance adjustment may not be able to correct
the balance completely.
R+5→...→R+1→0←L+1←...←L+5
The dialog in the film may sound less clear because of the music or other sounds depending on
the movie or scene.
Dialog mode
(“Dialog Mode” appears in the
display.)
In such a case, set “Dialog”to “Enhance.”(The factory setting is “Normal”which is the normal mode.)
Notes
• This function emphasizes the dialog in the center channel since the dialog sound, in most films, is allocated to
the center channel.Therefore, if the dialog is not in the center channel, the sound will not be enhanced.
• Depending on the type of source, this mode is not very effective.

This means, for example, even if DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound
is played by the DVD Receiver, you can output sound to the
speakers in the 48 kHz/16 bit format, which lets you to use the DSP
sound effects instead of DOLBY DIGITAL Surround.

Enjoying the Sound Effects
Using the LATE NIGHT/FRONT EFFECT
Function
Boosting the Super Bass Sounds/High
Frequency Sounds
• The LATE NIGHT function operates when the sound is
DOLBY DIGITAL Surround.
You can enjoy more dynamic sounds by boosting the super
bass/high frequency sounds, even with decreased volume.
If you play a movie at low volume at night, set this function
to “Low” or “High” to narrow the dynamic range of the
sound and make it easier to hear.
E
O
• The FRONT EFFECT function operates with DSP
modes other than All Ch Stereo.
A.CTRL
If you use one of the DSP sound effects with a source
containing acoustic reverberation, the sound may become
unclear because of too much reverberation. In such case,
set this function to “Off.” The DSP sound effect will not add
additional reverberation to the sound output to the three
front speakers.

Recording Using the Connected Equipment
DVD
Recording the Picture and Sound From
Different Sources at the Same Time
Digital recording from a DVD video
played by the DVD Receiver
The picture from the playing VIDEO 2 source is output through
the VIDEO OUT jacks when you select any audio source
(TAPE/MD, FM, or AM) or TV/LINE.
The digital sound signals are output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT
(OPT) connector in the most suitable format when the sound
signal conversion method is set to “Bitstream” (see page 56).
However, if the conversion method is set to “Bitstream” or “96k
Sound” when DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound is
reproduced, the signals will be output in the bitstream format
from the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector as in b in the
table on page 49. The bitstream signals are unrecordable.
Therefore, to record the sounds recorded in the DOLBY
DIGITAL Surround sound format, you need to change the
conversion method to “PCM.” Once the conversion method is
changed to “PCM,” the DOLBY DIGITAL sound signals are
converted into the 2 channel 48 kHz/16 bit PCM format as in
c in the same table mentioned above.
Play the VIDEO 2 source and select TAPE/MD, FM, AM, or
TV/LINE, then you can record the picture from the VIDEO 2
source and the sound from the selected input source at the
same time, using the recording equipment connected to the
VIDEO 1 jacks.
Digital recording from the source
connected to the digital input connectors
to the digital recording equipment
connected to the digital output connector
Digital recording of MPEG2 sounds is impossible regardless
of the sound signal conversion methods. (Analog recording is
possible. See on the left.)
The digital input connectors are as follows:
• The VIDEO 1 DIGITAL INPUT (OPT) connector, and
• The VIDEO 2 DIGITAL INPUT (COAX) connector.
DTS Surround sound is unrecordable from both the digital
output connector and analog output jacks regardless of the
sound signal conversion methods.
The digital output connector is the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT)
connector.
Notes
Recording digital sound signals from sources connected to the
digital input connectors using digital recording equipment
connected to the digital output is possible unless:
• The recording is against SCMS (Serial Copy Management
System) rules (for details of SCMS rules, refer to the
manual of the digital recording equipment),
• The digital signals are in bitstream format (the recordable
digital signal format is PCM –– two channel digital stereo
sound signals), or
• The sampling frequency is out of the recordable range of
the recording equipment (for recordable sampling
frequency, refer to the manual of the digital recording
equipment). Note that the maximum signal frequency output
from the DVD Receiver is 48 kHz.
• If the conversion method is set to “PCM,” the DTS Surround sounds
of a DVD video will not be reproduced from the speakers nor output
to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector. See f in the tables on
page 49.
• If the sound signal conversion method is set to “96k Sound,” the
DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector will not output any signals
depending on the frequency and quantization as in d in the table on
page 49.
To digitally record high frequency PCM sound signals, the
conversion method must be set to “Bitstream” or “PCM,” so that the
frequency/quantization are converted to the 48 kHz/16 bit format,
which is recordable.
VCD
Analog and Digital recording from a
VIDEO CD played using the DVD Receiver
DVD
Analog recording from a DVD Video
played using the DVD Receiver
VIDEO CDs are recorded in the MPEG1 format.
MPEG1 sounds are recordable regardless of the conversion
method. MPEG1 sound signals are output to the DIGITAL
OUTPUT (OPT) connector in the 44.1 kHz/16 bit format, and
at the same time, converted to analog signals and output to
the analog jacks.
The digital sound signals are converted to analog signals and
output to the analog output jacks unless the DVD video is
recorded in the DTS Surround or MPEG2 system.
MPEG2 sounds can be recorded by changing the sound
signal conversion method to “96k Sound” or “PCM.” For
details, see page 49.
CD
Analog and Digital recording from an
audio CD played using the DVD Receiver
Although the speakers can reproduce DTS Surround sounds,
DTS signals are not output to the analog output jacks. See e
in the table on page 49.
PCM sound signals are output to the DIGITAL OUTPUT
(OPT) connector, and converted to analog signals and output
to the analog output jacks regardless of the conversion
method.
Note
If the sound signal conversion method is set to “96k Sound,”
reproduced PCM signals may not be output from the digital output
connector (DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT)) depending on the frequency
and quantization. See also the second note in “Digital recording from
a DVD video played by the DVD Receiver” in the right column of this
page.
DTS Surround sound is unrecordable. Because DTS Surround
sound signals of an audio CD are output to the DIGITAL
OUTPUT (OPT) connector in the bitstream format and no
signal will be output to the analog output jacks regardless of
the conversion method. For details, see the tables on page 49.

control. Using old batteries may result in a failure in programming or
cause the programmed remote controller buttons to operate
improperly.
SEND/LEARN indicator
• The remote controller and most other remote controls transmit
infrared rays, however, if the other remote control uses another
method, programming is impossible.
• Although seven buttons are prepared for operating the TV, the
number of programmable buttons varies depending on the
manufacturer and type of the other remote control.
