10. To Obtain a Clear Picture

2. About This Manual

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.

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. Notes on Moisture Condensation

Moisture condensation damages the unit.

Please read the following carefully.

3. Recording Copyright

Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is

illegal without permission of the copyright holder.

• 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.

4. AC Fuse

The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-serviceable.

If power does not come on, contact your Onkyo authorized service

center.

5. Power

WARNING

• 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.

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 (AC

120V 60Hz or AC 230-240V 50Hz) written on the rear panel.

6. Do not touch the unit with wet hands

• 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.

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.

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 (European and some

Asian models) or when the power cord is unplugged.

The power cord must be plugged and the POWER switch

must be set to ON (European and some Asian models) 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.

Positioning Speakers

I Standard speaker placement of the speakers system (standard speaker placement of the

SPEAKERS A system for North American and South American model)

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.

If a center speaker or subwoofer is not connected, the sound from the unused channel is properly distributed to the connected

speakers in order to reproduce the best Surround sound possible.

The center speaker reproduces a richer sound image by enhancing the

perception of the sound's source and movement.

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 pages 29-33).

The speaker configuration is very important for the surround sound. See “Connecting Speakers” on pages 18, 19 and “Positioning

Speakers” on page 20.

Following are the sound systems the DVD Receiver can reproduce.

DOLBY DIGITAL Surround and DTS (Digital

Theater System) Surround

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II Surround

This is a 5-channel surround system of a new generation,

casting a bridge between the previous 4-channel (Left/Right

Front, Center and monaural surround channels) Pro Logic

surround and 5.1-channel Dolby Digital surround. Dolby Pro

Logic II provides the Movie mode optimized for viewing

movies and the Music mode optimized for listening to music.

In the Movie mode, the surround channel, which has been

monaural and based on narrow band, is reproduced in stereo

so that the feeling of movement in the played movies is more

enhanced. In the Music mode, the surround channel

reproduces natural sound field even with 2-channel music

sources.

Recommended speaker setup

Center Speaker

Left front speaker

Right front speaker

Subwoofer

Left surround speaker

Right surround speaker

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.

The Movie mode allows you to enjoy VHS and DVD software

carrying the

marking as well as some of TV

broadcast programs. The Music mode allows you to enjoy

stereo music from CD, etc.

The DVD Receiver offers the following special Onkyo sound

effects for sources other than Dolby Digital and DTS sounds.

To playback DOLBY DIGITAL Surround sound from

connected equipment, you must make the digital connection

in addition to the above speaker configuration.

Orchestra

This mode is suitable for classical and opera music. The

center channel is cut and the surround channels are

emphasized to widen the stereo image. It simulates a natural

reverberation as created in a large hall.

Unplugged

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.

This mode is suitable for acoustic instrumental sounds,

vocals, and jazz music. By emphasizing the front stereo

image, it simulates the acoustics in front of the stage.

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.

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.

• 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.

• 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 DVD

Receiver cannot be recognized as DTS data by the DVD Receiver

and you may hear noise instead of the proper sound.

All Ch St (All Channel Stereo)

This mode is useful for background music. The front and

surround channels will create a stereo image.

The Input Sources and Available

Listening Modes

Theater-Dimensional (T-D)* mode

The ideal home theater is realized by the multichannel sound

reproduction with the complete speaker configuration and

speaker positioning described on page 20. 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 29 or 31.

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 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.

Notes

* PL II Movie/Music can be selected only when the source is

2-channel.

• For the input sources which include the surround channel signals

like the 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.

Note

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.

Checking the Sound System of the

Playing Source

* 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.

The DVD Receiver will automatically detect the sound

system when DOLBY DIGITAL Surround (

), DTS

Surround ( ), or PCM/MP3 DIGITAL (2 channel digital

stereo) is played back. The corresponding sound system

indicator lights in the DVD Receiver’s display.

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 “Speaker 2ch” or “Speaker 3ch” in “Speaker Setup” on pages 29 and 30.

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.

Listening

angle

• If you cannot place the surround speakers in the correct position.

– Place each surround speaker on top of or on the outer side of each front speaker of the

same side.

40°

20°

– 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 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.

This parameter adjusts the virtual surround level.

Virtual Surround Level

(“V. Surr Level” appears in the

display.)

Set “V. Surr Level” to one of the following 7 values, which you feel is most effective:

–3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, and, 3

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 “Normal” 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.

Setting the TV Screen Size

The width-to-height ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, while the

width-to-height ratio of wide screen and high-definition TVs is

16:9. This width-to-height ratio is called the aspect ratio.

When viewing software recorded in different aspect ratios, the

image’s height to width ratio can be switched to match the TV

or monitor being used.

Make changes to the TV screen size in the [TV Screen] setting

Language

Video1 V2

General

TV Screen — 16:9(Wide)

Component Video — S1

Tip

S-Video Out — S2

If this DVD Receiver is set to output progressive-scan video, it’s

possible that the picture will appear stretched when playing discs

recorded in 4:3 format. This happens when the TV’s aspect ratio is

set at 16:9. To see the picture in its correct aspect ratio, change the

TV setting to 4:3.

If your TV can not be switched between 4:3 and 16:9, set this DVD

Receiver to [Interlace] or [Auto progressive]. In Auto progressive

mode, 4:3 discs will be played in Interlace mode, while discs that are

recorded in both 4:3 and 16:9 will play in interlace mode during the

4:3 sections, and in progressive mode during the 16:9 parts. Switch

your TV’s aspect ratio to the most suitable setting (for more details,

see the manual that came with your TV). When set to [Auto

progressive], you may see picture disturbance when this player (and

the TV) switches between progressive and interlace modes. This is

not a malfunction of either this player or the TV. Picture disturbance

should only occur when switching from a menu screen to the main

feature, for example.

I Turning the Screen Saver On and Off ^Expert

As a protective function against residual images on the TV

the screen saver appears when the same screen has been

displayed for a length of time. By default, the screen saver is

turned on. However, the screen saver function can be turned

on and off at your discretion.

Make changes to the [Screen Saver] setting in the Setup

screen Video 1 menu in the [Expert] menu mode (page 65).

Notes

• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan

signal and choose one of the progressive scan settings, you will

not be able to see any picture at all. With your TV connected

using either the composite or S-Video terminals, choose the

[Interlace] setting in the [Component Video] menu.

Recording Using the Connected Equipment

Note

You can record according to the following using the connected

recording equipment:

• Sound/picture of discs played back by the DVD Receiver,

• Sound of FM/AM programs, and

Many discs and sources are copy protected. Copy protected sources

are impossible to record.

• Sound/picture of the connected source.

Basic Recording Procedure

I Digital recording from the source connected

to the digital input connectors to the digital

recording equipment connected to the

digital output connector

Set the recording equipment (MD

recorder, DAT, Cassette tape deck,

VCR, DVD recorder, CD recorder,

etc.) to recording pause.

The digital input connectors are as follows:

• The VIDEO 1 DIGITAL INPUT (COAX) connector, and

• The VIDEO 2 DIGITAL INPUT (OPT) connector.

Select the input source to be

recorded, then set it to play pause.

The digital output connector is the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT)

connector.

• To play and pause a DVD video, Video

CD, or audio CD, see page 34.

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

• To select an FM/AM program, see page

38.

• To select a connected source, see page

40.

Refer to the manuals of the connected

source equipment for instructions on how

to play and pause.

• 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.

Release the recording pause set in

step 1 to start recording.

Start playback of the selected

source in step 2.

I Analog recording from a DVD Video played

DVD

Notes

using the DVD Receiver

• If you select another input source during recording, the selected

source will be recorded.

• Sound effects described on pages 44 to 50 do not affect the

recorded sounds.

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.

Although the speakers can reproduce DTS Surround sounds,

DTS signals are not output to the analog output jacks.

I Recording the Picture and Sound From

Different Sources at the Same Time

The picture from the playing VIDEO 2/CDR/PC source is

output through the VIDEO OUT jacks when you select any

audio source (TAPE/MD, FM, or AM) or TV/LINE.

Play the VIDEO 1 source and select TAPE/MD, FM, AM, or

TV/LINE, then you can record the picture from the VIDEO 1

source and the sound from the selected input source at the

same time, using the recording equipment connected to the

VIDEO 2 jacks.

Controlling other components connected

to the DVD Receiver

Caution

The remote controller has two learning functions. One is

entering the signal number for a remote controller of another

brand that is pre-programmed. Another is a normal learning

function that enables the remote controller to learn the codes

from other remote controllers.

With some brand’s components, some buttons may not work

correctly. In this case, program the command separately.

Learning a pre-programming code

By learning a pre-programming code, you can make the

RC-484M remote controller able to operate a product from

another brand. The buttons that are used for operation are

given on the next page.

Press the button that you

programmed and check if the

system operates correctly.

• If the component does not operate

properly, return to step 3 and repeat the

steps above.

Find the 3-digit number for the

brand name of the component that

• If it still does not operate properly, then

program the commands one by one to

the buttons on the RC-484M remote

controller.

you want to operate in the table on

the next page.

Turn on the component that you

want to operate (i.e. DVD, satellite

tuner, or television).

While holding down the MODE

button on the RC-484M that you

want to program, press the +10

button, and then release both

buttons.

The SEND/LEARN indicator lights when

the MODE button is pressed and turns off

when the +10 button is pressed. Wait until

the indicator turns off before releasing both

buttons. Then the SEND/LEARN indicator

lights again.

Within 30 seconds, enter the 3-digit

code number.

The SEND/LEARN indicator flashes twice

slowly. If the SEND/LEARN indicator

quickly flashes three times, then either a

mistaken 3-digit code was entered or an

incorrect operation was performed. If this

occurs, return to step 3.

Pre-programmong codes

Note:

If more than one code is given in the

table, try the code one by one until you

reach the code for your component (i.e.

if the first code does not work, then try

the next).

Programming the commands of remote

controllers for other devices into the

remote controller

When programming the commands of another remote

controller to the RC-484M remote controller, you must first

decide under which MODE button you want the commands to

be linked. In general, you will select the MODE button that

corresponds to the component you are programming.

After programming which MODE button to use, you will then

transfer the separate commands from the other remote

controller over to the RC-484M remote controller one at a

time. Each command is then programmed to a different button

on the RC-484M remote controller. Any button is

5 to 15 cm

(2 to 6 inches)

programmable for this step except for the six MODE buttons

(DVD, CDR, TAPE/MD/HD, AUDIO, VCR, TV).

Even after the commands have been memorized, keep your

old remote controller in a safe place. If for some reason the

commands are lost (e.g., when the batteries run down), it will

be necessary to memorize them once again.

SEND/LEARN

indicator

Place the remote controller and the

remote controller for the other

device facing each other at a

distance of 5 to 15 cm (2 to 6

inches) apart.

MODE

buttons

While pressing and holding down

the desired MODE button on the

remote controller, press the ENTER

button and then release both

buttons.

When you press and hold down the MODE

button, the SEND/LEARN indicator lights.

When you press the ENTER button, the

lamp turns off. When you release the

buttons, the lamp lights again.

Press and release the button on the

remote controller to which you want

to transfer the next command.

You may select any button but the eight

ones indicated in the figure below. When

you press the button, the SEND/LEARN

indicator turns off. When you release the

button, the indicator lights again.

ENTER

If you press the wrong button by mistake,

press that same button again. The SEND/

LEARN indicator flashes twice, and the

remote controller exits the programming

mode.

Notes:

Press and hold down the button

you are programming) on the

remote controller of the other

device until the SEND/LEARN

indicator on the remote controller

flashes twice.

cassette tape deck or HD Recorder have already been

programmed into buttons on the remote controller. You may,

however, use these buttons to program the codes for other

remote controllers. If you wish to restore the Onkyo preset codes

after you program new codes, you must first erase the new codes

(see page 83).

• The remote controller has 300 memory slots (6 modes × 50

buttons). Some remote controllers may have more commands

that can be remembered by the remote controller. In such cases,

it will be necessary for you to determine which commands are

more important than others.

• If no button is pressed for more than 30 seconds during the

programming, or if you perform an invalid operation during

programming, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes three times

quickly, and the remote controller exits the programming mode.

Resume from Step 2.

• If a failure occurs during programming, the SEND/LEARN

indicator flashes three times quickly, and the remote controller

exits the programming mode. Resume from Step 3.

• If a failure occurs five times in row during programming, the

remote controller exits the programming mode. Resume from

Step 3.

After flashing twice, the SEND/LEARN

indicator will light again.

Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to transfer all

the commands you desire from the

other remote controller and

program them to buttons on the

remote controller under the same

MODE.

Repeat Steps 2 through 4 to program

commands to a different MODE (e.g., when

programming from a different remote

controller).

• If you try to program beyond the learning capacity of the remote

controller, the SEND/LEARN indicator flashes six times quickly,

and the remote controller exits the programming mode. Try

programming under a different MODE button.

• When you want to program a command to a button to which you

have already programmed a command, simply follow the same

procedure given and programming for that button will be

overwritten.

• The remote controller uses infrared rays to send its commands,

as do most other remote controllers. Though most remote

controller codes can be memorized by the remote controller, be

aware that some remote controllers use a system that is quite

different from the remote controller and therefore may not be able

to be programmed.

Press the MODE button that you

pressed in step 2 to complete the

programming.

Operate the newly programmed

buttons to make sure the learning

function was performed properly.

• Some remote controllers have a single button that performs

multiple functions (for example, the function may change each

time the button is pressed). If this is the case, each function must

be programmed to a separate button on the remote controller.

• Once you have transferred the commands from the other remote

controller, refer to the instruction manual that came with that

product for instructions on how to operate that product.

• Make sure both the remote controller and the other remote

controller have new batteries. If either of them has batteries that

are low, you may not be able to program the commands of the

other remote controller properly into the remote controller.

all buttons.

• If many commands have been programmed to the MODE button,

then the SEND/LEARN indicator may remain lit for up to 20

Various Mounting Methods

Front Speaker Bases

Wall Mounting

If you intend to stand the front speakers on the ﬂoor or

on a TV stand or AV stand, you should attach the sup-

plied front speaker bases. To do this, align the mounting

holes in the base with base/stand inserts on the front

speaker’s rear panel, and secure by using four of the sup-

plied ﬁxing screws.

The front speakers, center speaker, surround speakers,

and surround back speaker (SKS-HT240 only) can eas-

ily be wall mounted by using the keyhole slots. To pre-

vent the speaker from vibrating against the wall, attach

four of the supplied spacers to the keyhole ﬁns on the

rear of each speaker.

■ Mounting vertically

To mount the front speakers, surround speakers, or sur-

round back speaker (SKS-HT240 only) vertically, use

the keyhole slot shown to hang each speaker on a screw

that’s securely screwed into the wall.

Various Mounting Methods—Continued

■ Mounting horizontally

Using Speaker Mounts/Brackets

To mount the center speaker horizontally, use the two

keyhole slots shown to hang each speaker on two screws

that are securely screwed into the wall.

Threaded inserts for 1/4-inch machine screws are pro-

vided on the rear of each speaker for wall-mounting with

commercially available speaker mounts and brackets.

Refer to the manual supplied with your mounts or brack-

ets for installation details.

A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends

on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow

walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are

no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors.

Use screws with a head diameter of 3/8 inch or less and

a shank diameter of 1/8 inch (or 4 mm) or less (No. 8 or

smaller). With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to

check for any power cables or water pipes before making

any holes.

Note:

The portion of the screw that goes into the speaker’s

threaded insert should be between 1/5 and 3/8 of an inch

long.

(We recommend that you consult a home installation

professional.)

Mount or bracket

Using the Optional Speaker Stands

Optional Onkyo speaker stands (AS-240) are available

for the front left and right and surround left and right

speakers. To attach a speaker to a stand, align the mount-

ing holes in the stand with those on the speaker’s rear

panel, and secure by using four of the supplied ﬁxing

screws.

About Home Theater

Enjoying Home Theater

The HTP-240/SKS-HT240’s great sound means that 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.

Front left and right speakers

Center speaker

These output the overall sound.Their role in a home theater

is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image.They should

be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equi-

distant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a

triangle, with the listener at the apex.

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 your TV facing forward at

about ear level, or at the same height as the front

left and right speakers.

Right

Subwoofer

The subwoofer handles the bass

sounds of the LFE (Low-Fre-

quency Effects) channel. The vol-

ume and quality of the bass output

from your subwoofer will depend

Left

on its position, the shape of your

listening room, and your listening

position. In general, a good bass

sound can be obtained by install-

ing the subwoofer in a front cor-

ner, or at one-third the width of the

wall, as shown.

Surround left and right speakers

These speakers are used for 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 equi-

distant from the listener.

Corner

Surround back speaker (SKS-HT240 only)

This speaker further enhances the realism of surround

sound and improves sound localization behind the lis-

tener. The surround-back speaker should be installed

behind the listener also at 2–3 ft. (60–100 cm) above ear

level. Make sure that the listening position is within the

range of the speaker.

Adjustment

Caring forYour Speakers

Placement

Setting the Subwoofer Level

• The speaker cabinets are made out of aluminum and

are therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and

humidity, do not put them in locations subject to direct

sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air condi-

tioner, humidiﬁer, bathroom, or kitchen.

To set the level of the subwoofer, use the OUTPUT

LEVEL control. Set it so that bass sounds are evenly bal-

anced with the treble sounds from the other speakers.

Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass

sounds, there’s a temptation to set the level of the sub-

woofer too high. As a rule of thumb, set the subwoofer

level to what you think is the optimal level, and then back

it off slightly.

• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers.

If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units

may be damaged.

• As explained in this manual, mount the speakers on a

wall, on the supplied bases, or on the optional stands,

otherwise, they may fall, causing personal injury or

damage to the speakers.

OUTPUT

LEVEL

• Speakers with bases should only be placed on sturdy,

ﬂat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them

on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall

and cause damage, will affect the sound quality.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

Subwoofer Level Set OK

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive

devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or

picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed

nearby. To prevent this, the HTP-240/SKS-HT240 speak-

ers feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situa-

tions, however, discoloration may still be an issue, in

which case you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait

15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This nor-

mally activates the degaussing function, which neutral-

izes the magnetic ﬁeld, thereby removing any

discoloration effects. If discoloration problems persist,

try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor.

Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or

demagnetizing tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor.

The HTP-240/SKS-HT240 speakers contain strong

magnets, so do not put magnetic or iron objects such as

screwdrivers close to them. If you do, the object may be

attracted to the magnets, causing personal injury or dam-

age to a speaker cone.

Operating Precautions

The HTP-240/SKS-HT240 speakers can handle the

speciﬁed input power when used for normal music

reproduction. If any of the following signals are fed to

them, even if the input power is within the speciﬁed rat-

ing, excessive current may ﬂow in the speaker coils,

causing burning or wire breakage:

Frequency

1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.

2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.

3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, elec-

tronic musical instrument, and so on.

4. Ampliﬁer oscillation.

5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.

6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or discon-

necting audio cables (Always turn off your ampliﬁer

before connecting or disconnecting cables.)

7. Microphone feedback.
