WARNING  
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE  
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SEC-  
TION CAREFULLY.  
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country.  
Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the  
voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear  
panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).  
The power cord plug is used to disconnect this  
unit from theAC power source. Make sure that the  
plug is readily operable (easily accessible) at all  
times.  
Pressing the [ON/STANDBY] button to select  
Standby mode does not fully shutdown the unit. If  
you do not intend to use the unit for an extended  
period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.  
5. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never  
handle this unit or its power cord while your  
hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liq-  
uid gets inside this unit, have it checked by your  
Onkyo dealer.  
6. Handling Notes  
If you need to transport this unit, use the origi-  
nal packaging to pack it how it was when you  
originally bought it.  
Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit  
for a long time, because they may leave marks  
on the case.  
This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm  
after prolonged use. This is normal.  
If you do not use this unit for a long time, it  
may not work properly the next time you turn it

Precautions—Continued  
For British models  
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the  
power supply cord of this unit should be performed  
only by qualified service personnel.  
IMPORTANT  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance  
with the following code:  
Blue:  
Brown:  
Neutral  
Live  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this  
apparatus may not correspond with the coloured mark-  
ings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as  
follows:  
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to  
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or  
coloured black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected  
to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or  
coloured red.  
IMPORTANT  
The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse  
needs to be replaced, the replacement fuse must be  
approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362 and have the  
same ampere rating as that indicated on the plug.  
Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body  
of the fuse.  
If the power cord’s plug is not suitable for your socket  
outlets, cut it off and fit a suitable plug. Fit a suitable  
fuse in the plug.

Speaker Precautions  
Placement  
Input Signal Warning  
• The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood  
and is therefore sensitive to extreme tem-  
peratures and humidity, do not put it in loca-  
tions subject to direct sunlight or in humid  
places, such as near an air conditioner,  
humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.  
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the  
speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speak-  
ers, the drive units may be damaged.  
• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy,  
flat surfaces that are free from vibration.  
Putting them on uneven or unstable sur-  
faces, where they may fall and cause dam-  
age, will affect the sound quality.  
The speakers can handle the specified input  
power when used for normal music reproduc-  
tion. If any of the following signals are fed to  
them, even if the input power is within the  
specified rating, excessive current may flow  
in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire  
breakage:  
1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM  
radio.  
2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette  
tape.  
3. High-pitched sounds generated by an  
oscillator, electronic musical instrument,  
and so on.  
• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the  
upright vertical position only. Do not use it  
in the horizontal or tilted position.  
4. Amplifier oscillation.  
5. Special test tones from audio test CDs  
and so on.  
• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD  
player or DVD player, howling or slipping  
of sound may occur. To prevent this, move  
the unit away from the turntable, CD player  
or DVD player, otherwise lower the unit’s  
output level.  
6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting  
or disconnecting audio cables (Always  
turn off your amplifier before connecting  
or disconnecting cables.)  
7. Microphone feedback.  
Using Close to a TV or Computer  
TVs and computer monitors are magnetically  
sensitive devices and as such are likely to suf-  
fer discoloration or picture distortion when  
conventional speakers are placed nearby. To  
prevent this, the HTX-22HDST features  
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 normally acti-  
vates the degaussing function, which neutral-  
izes the magnetic field, thereby removing any  
discoloration effects. If discoloration prob-  
lems persist, try moving the speakers away  
from your TV or monitor. Note that discolor-  
ation can also be caused by a magnet or  
demagnetizing tool that’s too close to your  
TV or monitor.

Connecting the Speakers  
Enjoying Home Theater  
Thanks to the HTX-22HD’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of  
movement in your own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. You can enjoy DVDs  
featuring Dolby Digital or DTS. With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS  
Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.  
Speaker positions for a 7.1-channel system are shown below.  
Front left and right speakers (HTX-22HDST)  
These output the main sound. Their role in a home the-  
ater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image.They  
should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level,  
and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward  
slightly so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the  
apex.  
Surround left and right speakers (optional  
SKS-11)  
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 equally  
spaced from the listener.  
Center speaker (optional SKS-11)  
This speaker enhances the front left and  
right speakers, making sound move-  
ments distinct and providing a full sound  
image. For movies it’s used mainly for  
dialog.  
Position it close to your TV (preferably  
on top) facing forward at about ear level,  
or at the same height as the front left  
and right speakers.  
Subwoofer (HTX-22HDPAW Amp/  
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  
way along the front wall, as shown.  
Tip: To nd the best position for your sub-  
woofer, while playing a movie or some music  
with good bass, experiment by placing your  
subwoofer at various positions within the  
room and choose the one that provides the  
most satisfying results.  
Surround back left and right speakers (not supplied  
with the HTX-22HD)  
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Digital EX,  
DTS-ES Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc.They enhance the  
realism of surround sound and improve sound localiza-  
tion behind the listener. Position them behind the listener  
about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.  
(*power amp and speakers required)  
Notes:  
The HTX-22HD Digital Surround System consists  
of an Amp/Subwoofer and two front speakers.  
Designed especially for use with the HTX-22HD,  
the optional Onkyo SKS-11 speaker package  
consists of a center speaker and two surround  
speakers that can be connected directly to the  
HTX-22HD.  
For 7.1-channel surround, you’ll need a pair of  
surround back speakers and a power amp to  
drive them, which can be connected to the HTX-  
22HD’s SURROUND BACK PRE OUT jacks (see  
page 20).

Connecting the Speakers—Continued  
Affixing the Cork Spacers  
You can improve the sound quality by affixing the included cork spacers to raise the speakers  
off the mounting surface thereby reducing the contact area. The spacers also make the speakers  
stable and prevent them from moving around.

If you intend to wall-mount the front speakers using  
their keyhole slots, affix two cork spacers to the rear of  
each speaker for a added stability.  
Note:  
• Before you wall-mount the front speakers, check the strength of the wall. The supporting  
strength of the screws depends on the wall material and the position of the studs. Use screws  
as thick and long as possible, with a head diameter of 10 mm or less and a thread diameter of  
4 mm or less. (We recommend that you consult a professional home electronics installer.)

Speaker Connection Precautions  
Making the Connections  
Read the following before connecting your  
speakers:  
Remove the pre-  
cut insulation  
from the ends of  
the speaker  
cables, and  
twist the bare wires tightly.  
1
2
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall  
outlet before making any connections.  
• Connect only speakers with an impedance  
of 6 ohms or higher.  
• Read the instructions supplied with your  
speakers.  
Push the lever to  
open the hole,insert  
the bare wire into  
the hole, and then  
• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polar-  
ity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only  
positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) ter-  
minals to only negative (–) terminals. If  
you get them the wrong way around, the  
sound will be out of phase and will sound  
unnatural.  
release the lever.  
Maker sure that the speaker terminals are  
gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.  
• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker  
cables may affect the sound quality and  
should be avoided.  
• Be careful not to short  
the positive and nega-  
tive wires. Doing so  
may damage the HTX-  
22HD.  
• Don’t connect more than one cable to each  
speaker terminal. Doing so may damage  
the HTX-22HD.  
• Don’t connect a speaker to several termi-  
nals.

About AV Connections  
• Before making any AV connections, read the manuals supplied with your other AV compo-  
nents.  
• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed and double-checked all AV connec-  
tions.  
Optical Digital Jacks  
The HTX-22HD’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.  
Caution: To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.  
RCA Connection Color Coding  
RCA connections are usually color coded: red and white. 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”).

Connecting Components with Digital Outputs  
You can connect components with digital audio outputs to the HTX-22HD’s COAXIAL IN,  
OPTICAL IN 1, and IN 2 inputs. Choose a digital input (coaxial or optical) that matches the  
digital audio output on your source component. To enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS, you must  
connect your DVD player with an optical or coaxial digital audio cable. If your DVD player  
supports HDMI, you can use an HDMI connection instead (see page 24).  
Notes:  
• After you connect a component to an input jack, you must assign that input jack to an input  
selector. See “Audio Input Setup” on page 36.  
• On some source components, Dolby Digital and DTS output may be turned off by default, in  
which case you’ll need to turn it on.  
• If one of your source components is noticeably louder or quieter than your others, use the  
IntelliVolume function to adjust its input level (see page 64).

Connecting Components with HDMI  
About HDMI  
Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia  
Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, DVD players, set-  
top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have  
been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals,  
digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital  
audio, or multichannel PCM).  
*1  
The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface),  
so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable.  
(This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)  
The HTX-22HD uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-com-  
patible components will display a picture.  
The HTX-22HD’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:  
Repeater System, Deep Color, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Reso-  
lution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, SA-CD and Multichannel PCM  
Supported Audio Formats  
• 2-channel linear PCM (16/20/24 bit/32–192 kHz)  
• Multichannel linear PCM (7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz)  
• Bitstream (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High  
Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, DSD)  
Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.  
About Copyright Protection  
*2  
The HTX-22HD supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), a copy-protec-  
tion system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the HTX-22HD via HDMI must  
also support HDCP.  
Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the  
HTX-22HD’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.  
*3  
*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG in  
1999.  
*2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology  
developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to protect video content and requires a  
HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.  
*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Led by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard,  
IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open industry group’s objective is to address the indus-  
try's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCs and dig-  
ital displays.

Connecting AV Components—Continued  
Making HDMI Connections  
You can connect components with HDMI outputs to the HTX-22HD’s HDMI IN 1 and IN 2  
inputs and connect your HDMI TV to the HTX-22HD’s HDMI OUT.You need HDMI cables to  
make HDMI connections.  
Note:  
• By default, the HDMI1 and HDMI2 inputs are assigned to the VCR/DVR and CBL/SAT  
input selectors. To change these assignments, see “HDMI Input Setup” on page 37.  
Video Signals  
Digital video signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the HDMI OUT for display  
on your TV.  
Audio Signals  
Digital audio signals received by the HDMI IN jacks are output by the speakers connected to the  
HTX-22HD. Normally, they are not output by the HDMI OUT.  
To listen to audio received by the HDMI IN jacks through your TV’s speakers,  
Hint!  
set the Audio TV Out setting to On (see page 68), and set your DVD player’s  
HDMI audio output setting to PCM.

Notes:  
• Set the output resolution of your DVD player so that it matches the resolution of your TV  
before starting playback.  
• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and dis-  
plays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that  
DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.)  
However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals  
from a PC are not supported.  
• To listen to an HDMI source component through the HTX-22HD, you must configure your  
system so that video from the HDMI source component can be displayed on your TV (i.e., on  
your TV, select the HDMI input that’s connected to the HTX-22HD’s HDMI OUT). This is  
necessary because a component identification check has to be performed on your TV before  
an HDMI source component can output any signals. If your TV is off or set to a different  
input source, the HTX-22HD may produce no sound or the sound may be distorted.  
• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected  
source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via  
HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

First Time Setup  
This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the HTX-22HD for the very  
first time.  
Automatic Speaker Setup (Audyssey 2EQ)  
With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ automatically determines the number  
of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequen-  
cies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey  
2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical prob-  
lems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-  
balanced sound for everyone. Enabling Audyssey 2EQ allows you to also use Dynamic EQ,  
which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level (see page 54).  
Measurement Positions  
To create a listening environment in which several people can enjoy your home theater simulta-  
neously, Audyssey 2EQ takes measurements at three positions within the listening area.  
A First measurement point  
This is the center point of the listening area, or the listening position.  
B Second measurement point  
The right side of the listening area.  
C Third measurement point  
The left side of the listening area.  
The distances between points 1and 2and points 1and 3must be at least 1 meter.  
From the examples below, choose the listening area that best matches yours and place the micro-  
phone accordingly when prompted.

PLIIx Music (2 ch Input)  
The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates  
6-channel surround sound from 2-channel  
stereo sources. With this setting, you can  
specify by how much the front left and right  
channel output is attenuated in order to create  
the center channel. It can be adjusted from 0  
to 5. The default value is 2.  
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 cen-  
trally. This setting works well when your lis-  
tening position is considerably off center.  
When set to 5, the front left and right chan-  
nels are not attenuated, maintaining the origi-  
nal stereo balance.  
These settings apply to only 2-channel stereo  
sources.  
If you’re not using any surround back speak-  
ers, these settings apply to Dolby Pro Logic  
II, not Dolby Pro Logic IIx.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode.  
On: Panorama function on.  
Off: Panorama function off (default).  
Dimension  
With this setting, you can move the sound  
field forward or backward when using the  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode. It  
can be adjusted from –3 to +3. The default  
value is 0. Higher settings move the sound  
field backward. Lower settings move it for-  
ward.  
If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s  
too much surround sound, move the sound  
field forward to improve the balance. Con-  
versely, if the stereo image feels like it’s in  
mono, or there’s not enough surround sound,  
move it backward.  
Dolby EX  
Dolby EX  
This setting determines how Dolby EX sig-  
nals are handled.  
Auto: When the source is Dolby EX,  
you can select the Dolby EX lis-  
tening mode.  
Manual: When the source is Dolby EX,  
you can select any of the listening  
modes compatible with this for-  
mat (e.g., Dolby EX, Dolby Pro  
Logic IIx, etc.).  
Center Width  
With this setting, you can adjust the width of  
the sound from the center speaker when using  
the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening  
mode. Normally, if you’re using a center  
speaker, the center channel sound is output by  
only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a  
center speaker, the center channel sound will  
be distributed to the front left and right speak-  
ers to create a phantom center). This setting  
controls the front left, right, and center mix,  
allowing you to adjust the weight of the cen-  
ter channel sound. It can be adjusted from 0  
to 7. The default value is 3.

LstnAngl (Listening Angle)  
Dynamic EQ  
With this setting, you can optimize the The-  
ater-Dimensional listening mode by specify-  
ing the angle of the front left and right  
speakers relative to your listening position.  
Ideally, the front left and right speakers  
should be equidistant from your listening  
position and at an angle close to one of the  
two available settings.  
With Dynamic EQ, you can enjoy great sound  
even when listening at low volume levels.  
Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio-  
rating sound quality as volume is decreased  
by taking into account human perception and  
room acoustics.  
It does so by selecting the correct frequency  
response and surround volume levels  
moment-by-moment so that the content  
sounds the way it was created at any volume  
level—not just at reference level.

Audio TV Out  
Lip Sync  
This setting determines whether audio  
received by an HDMI input is output by the  
HDMI OUT. You may want to change this  
setting to On if your TV is connected to the  
HDMI OUT and you want to listen to audio  
from an HDMI component through your TV’s  
speakers instead of the HTX-22HD’s speak-  
ers. Normally, this should be set to Off.  
Off: HDMI audio is not output (default).  
On: HDMI audio is output.  
The Lip Sync function can automatically syn-  
chronize HDMI audio and video that’s gotten  
out of sync due to the complex digital video  
processing being performed by your HDMI-  
compatible TV. With HDMI Lip Sync, the  
audio delay required to synchronize the audio  
and video is calculated and applied automati-  
cally by the HTX-22HD.  
Disable: HDMI lip sync disabled.  
Enable: HDMI lip sync enabled.  
Notes:  
Notes:  
• If On is selected and the signal can be out-  
put by the TV, the HTX-22HD’s speakers  
will output no sound.  
• When TV Control is enabled, this setting is  
set to Auto.  
• This function works only if your HDMI-  
compatible TV supports HDMI Lip Sync.  
You can check the amount of delay being  
applied by the HDMI Lip Sync function on  
the A/V Sync screen (see page 65).  
• With some TVs and input signals, no sound  
may be output even if On is selected.  
• When the Audio TV Out setting is set to  
On, or TV Control is set to Enable and  
you’re listening through your TV’s speak-  
ers (see page 25), if you turn up the HTX-  
22HD’s volume control, the sound will be  
output by the HTX-22HD’s speakers. To  
stop the HTX-22HD’s speakers producing  
sound, change the settings, change your  
TV’s settings, or turn down the HTX-  
22HD’s volume.  
x.v.Color  
With this setting you can enable or disable  
x.v.Color. To use x.v.Color, the HDMI source  
and HDMI TV must both support x.v.Color.  
Disable: x.v.Color disabled.  
Enable: x.v.Color enabled.  
Control  
This function allows RIHD-compatible com-  
ponents connected via HDMI to be controlled  
with the HTX-22HD.  
Disable: RIHD disabled.  
Enable: RIHD enabled.  
Notes:  
• RIHD, which stands for Remote Interactive  
over HDMI, is the name of the system con-  
trol function found on certain Onkyo com-  
ponents. The HTX-22HD can be used with  
CEC (Consumer Electronics Control),  
which allows system control over HDMI  
and is part of the HDMI standard. CEC  
provides interoperability between various  
components, however, operation with com-  
ponents other than RIHD-compatible com-  
ponents and recommended components  
cannot be guaranteed.

ever, if you experience either of the following  
issues when playing PCM or DTS sources,  
you can specify the signal format manually.  
• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM  
source are cut off, try the PCM setting.  
• If noise is produced when fast forwarding  
or rewinding a DTS CD, try the DTS set-  
ting.

Troubleshooting  
Make sure that the speaker cables are not short-  
ing.  
Check the digital audio output settings on the  
source component. On some game consoles, such  
as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is  
off.  
With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select  
an audio format from a menu or with the AUDIO  
button on your DVD player’s remote controller.  
If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp  
built-in, you must connect one between it and the  
HTX-22HD.  
If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must  
connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer  
and a phono preamp.  
If you have any trouble using the HTX-  
22HD, look for a solution in this section. If  
you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact  
your Onkyo dealer.  
Before you contact your Onkyo dealer,  
try resetting the HTX-22HD, as follows:  
To reset the HTX-22HD to its factory defaults,  
turn it on and, while holding down the [LIS-  
TENING MODE] button, press the  
[ON/STANDBY] button.Clear” will appear on  
the display and the HTX-22HD will enter  
Standby mode.  
Check the speaker settings (pages 56).  
If the digital signal format is set to PCM or DTS,  
set it to Auto (page 70).  
If there’s no sound from a DVD player connected  
to an HDMI IN, check the DVD player’s output  
settings, and be sure to select a compatible audio  
format.  
Note that resetting the HTX-22HD will  
delete all of your custom settings.  
Power

When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is  
selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer  
produce sound.  
Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).  
Only the center speaker produces sound  
If you use the Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie or  
Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music listening mode with a  
mono source, such as an AM radio station or  
mono TV program, the sound will be concen-  
Audio  
There’s no sound or it’s very quiet  
To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an  
HDMI input, make sure that input is assigned to  
an input selector (page 37).  
Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).  
The center speaker produces no sound  
To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an  
OPTICAL, COAXIAL, or LINE input, make  
sure that input is assigned to an input selector  
(page 36).  
Make sure you’ve selected the appropriate input  
selector (page 39).  
Check the volume (page 39). The HTX-22HD is  
designed for home theater enjoyment and has a  
wide volume range for precise adjustment.  
Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are  
pushed in all the way (page 21).  
Make sure that the cables are properly connected  
to the output jacks on the source component.  
Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables  
is correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with  
the metal part of each speaker terminal (page 21).  
When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is  
selected, the center speaker produces no sound  
(page 49).  
Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).  
The surround speakers produce no sound  
When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is  
selected, the surround speakers produce no  
sound.  
Depending on the source and the current listen-  
ing mode, not much sound may be produced by  
the surround speakers. Try another listening  
mode (page 42).  
Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).

Troubleshooting—Continued  
The surround back speakers produce no  
sound  
on. This is to prevent noise when you use the  
pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on  
your player. If you switch your player from DTS  
to PCM, as the HTX-22HD does not switch for-  
mats immediately, you may not hear anything, in  
which case you should stop your player for about  
3 seconds, and then resume playback.  
With some CD players, you won’t be able to  
playback DTS material properly even though  
your player is connected to a digital input on the  
HTX-22HD. This is usually because the DTS bit-  
stream has been processed (e.g., output level,  
sampling rate, or frequency response changed)  
and the HTX-22HD doesn’t recognize it as a gen-  
noise.  
The surround back speakers are not used with all  
listening modes. Try another listening mode  
(page 42).  
Not much sound may be produced by the sur-  
round back speakers with some sources.  
Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).  
The subwoofer produces no sound  
If the source material contains no audio in the  
LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.  
Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).  
There’s no sound with a certain signal format  
Check the digital audio output setting on the  
source component. On some game consoles, such  
as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is  
off.  
The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN  
can’t be heard  
Since it takes longer to identify the format of an  
signals, sound may not be output immediately.  
With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select  
an audio format from a menu or with the AUDIO  
button on your DVD player’s remote controller.  
The volume cannot be set to 79 (99)  
Check to see if a maximum volume has been set  
(page 67).  
Remote Controller  
After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has  
been run, or the volume level of each individual  
speaker has been adjusted (pages 32 and 60), the  
maximum volume may be reduced.  
When the levels of each speaker have been  
adjusted (page 60), the maximum possible vol-  
ume may be reduced.  
When the Equalizer Settings (page 62) is set to  
Audyssey, the maximum possible volume is  
reduced by 6 dB.  
The remote controller doesn’t work  
Make sure that the batteries are installed with the  
correct polarity (page 14).  
Make sure that the remote controller is not too far  
away from the HTX-22HD and there’s no  
obstruction between the remote controller and  
the HTX-22HD’s remote control sensor  
(page 14).  
Can’t control other components  
Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote  
controller mode.

Noise can be heard  
Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with  
power cords, speaker cables, and so on can

About DTS signals  
When playing DTS program material, using the

When DTS program material ends and the DTS  
bitstream stops, the HTX-22HD remains in DTS  
listening mode and the DTS indicator remains  
and an analog audio connection (RCA) between  
the component and HTX-22HD, even if they are  
connected digitally (page 26).

Troubleshooting—Continued  
The HTX-22HD contains a microcomputer for sig-  
nal processing and control functions. In very rare  
situations, severe interference, noise from an  
external source, or static electricity may cause it to  
lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens,  
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at  
least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.  
Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD  
rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused  
by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record impor-  
tant data, make sure that the material will be  
recorded correctly.  
Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall  
outlet, set the HTX-22HD to Standby.
