Description and Features  
The DPR 1001 is one of the first fully featured A/V  
receivers to use PWM digital amplifier technology in a  
high-performance audio/video receiver. A fully digital  
path from source input to the output stage eliminates  
the need for digital-to-analog conversion before  
amplification. This reduces the possibility of signal  
degradation or the introduction of distortion. Digital  
technology also enables Harman Kardon to provide  
seven amplifier channels, while reducing the size and  
weight of the chassis to a slimmer profile.  
On-screen menu and display system  
The DPR 1001’s flexibility and power extend  
beyond your main home theater or listening room.  
The DPR 1001 includes a sophisticated multizone  
control system that allows you to select one source  
for use in the main room and a different one in a  
second room. You may even assign the surround-  
back amplifiers to power the second zone for simulta-  
neous 5.1 and remote room operation. Complete  
control over volume is possible with a separate  
infrared control link. To make it easy to operate the  
DPR 1001 from a remote room, a separate “Zone II”  
remote is included.

bility to configure surround back channels to

SAFETY INFORMATION  
Installation Location  
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by  
one or more of the following measures:  
Important Safety Information  
To ensure proper operation and to avoid the poten-  
tial for safety hazards, place the unit on a firm and  
level surface. When placing the unit on a shelf, be  
certain that the shelf and any mounting hardware  
can support the weight of the product.  
Verify Line Voltage Before Use  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Your DPR 1001 has been designed for use with 120-  
volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than  
that for which it is intended can create a safety and  
fire hazard and may damage the unit.  
Increase the separation between the equipment  
and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit  
different from that to which the receiver is con-  
nected.  
Make certain that proper space is provided both  
above and below the unit for ventilation. If this  
product will be installed in a cabinet or other  
enclosed area, make certain that there is sufficient  
air movement within the cabinet. Under some cir-  
cumstances a fan may be required.  
If you have any questions about the voltage require-  
ments for your specific model, or about the line volt-  
age in your area, contact your selling dealer before  
plugging the unit into a wall outlet.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV  
technician for help.  
Do Not Use Extension Cords  
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,  
and (2) this device must accept interference received,  
including interference that may cause undesired  
operation.  
Do not place the unit directly on a carpeted surface.  
To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord  
attached to your unit. We do not recommend that  
extension cords be used with this product. As with all  
electrical devices, do not run power cords under rugs  
or carpets or place heavy objects on them. Damaged  
power cords should be replaced immediately by an  
authorized service center with a cord meeting factory  
specifications.  
Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold locations,  
or in an area that is exposed to direct sunlight or  
heating equipment.  
Avoid moist or humid locations.  
Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of  
the unit, or place objects directly over them.  
NOTE: Changes or modifications may cause this  
unit to fail to comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules  
and may void the user’s authority to operate the  
equipment.  
There is the remote possibility that the rubber  
padding on the bottom of the unit’s feet may  
leave marks on certain wood or veneer materials.  
Use caution when placing the unit on soft woods  
or other materials that may be damaged by heat  
or heavy objects.  
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently  
When disconnecting the power cord from an AC out-  
let, always pull the plug; never pull the cord. If you do  
not intend to use the unit for any considerable length  
of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.  
Unpacking  
The carton and shipping materials used to protect your  
new receiver during shipment were specially designed  
to cushion it from shock and vibration. We suggest  
that you save the carton and packing materials for use  
in shipping if you move, or should the unit ever need  
repair.  
Do Not Open the Cabinet  
Cleaning  
There are no user-serviceable components inside this  
product. Opening the cabinet may present a shock  
hazard, and any modification to the product will void  
your guarantee. If water or any metal object such as a  
paper clip, wire or a staple accidentally falls inside the  
unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immedi-  
ately, and consult an authorized service station.  
When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft, dry  
cloth. If necessary, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened  
with mild soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean  
water. Wipe dry immediately with a dry cloth. NEVER  
use benzene, aerosol cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any  
other volatile cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive  
cleaners, as they may damage the finish of metal  
parts. Avoid spraying insecticide near the unit.  
To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may  
wish to flatten it. This is done by carefully slitting the  
tape seams on the bottom and collapsing the carton.  
Other cardboard inserts may be stored in the same  
manner. Packing materials that cannot be collapsed  
should be saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.  
CATV or Antenna Grounding  
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to  
this product, be certain that it is grounded so as to pro-  
vide some protection against voltage surges and static  
charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code,  
ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with  
respect to proper grounding of the mast and support-  
ing structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an  
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,  
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to  
grounding electrodes and requirements of the  
grounding electrode.  
Moving the Unit  
Before moving the unit, be certain to disconnect any  
interconnection cords with other components, and  
make certain that you disconnect the unit from the  
AC outlet.  
If you do not wish to save the packaging materials,  
please note that the carton and other sections of the  
shipping protection are recyclable. Please respect the  
environment and discard those materials at a local  
recycling center.

with the limits for a Class-B digital device, pursuant  
to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. The limits are designed  
to provide reasonable protection against harmful  
interference in a residential installation. This equipment  
generates, uses and can radiate radio-frequency energy  
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the  
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio  
communication. However, there is no guarantee that  
harmful interference will not occur in a particular instal-  
lation. If this equipment does cause harmful interfer-  
ence to radio or television reception, which can be  
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the  
At this time you should also remove the protective  
plastic film from the front panel lens. Leaving the film  
in place may affect the performance of your remote  
control.  
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER: This reminder  
is provided to call the CATV (cable TV) system  
installer’s attention to article 820-40 of the NEC that

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS  
uses 300-ohm twin-lead cable, you must use an  
optional 300-ohm-to-75-ohm adapter.  
8. Connections to a subwoofer are normally made via  
a line-level audio connection from the LFE/Sub-  
woofer Output j to the LFE or line-level input of  
a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier. When a passive  
subwoofer is used, the connection first goes to a  
power amplifier, which will be connected to one or  
more subwoofer speakers. If you are using a pow-  
ered subwoofer that does not have line-level input  
connections, follow the instructions furnished with the  
speaker for connection information.  
System Installation  
After unpacking the unit, and placing it on a solid surface  
capable of supporting its weight, you will need to make  
the connections to your audio and video equipment.  
7. Connect the front, center, surround and surround  
back speaker outputs cdef to the respective  
speakers.  
IMPORTANT NOTE: For your personal safety and to  
avoid possible damage to your equipment and speakers,  
it is always a good practice to turn off and unplug the  
DPR 1001 and ALL source equipment from the AC  
output before making any audio or video system  
connections.  
To ensure that all the audio signals are carried to your  
speakers without loss of clarity or resolution, we  
suggest that you use high-quality speaker cable. Many  
brands of cable are available and the choice of cable  
may be influenced by the distance between your  
speakers and the receiver, the type of speakers you  
use, personal preferences and other factors. Your  
dealer or installer is a valuable resource to consult  
in selecting the proper cable.  
9. If an external multichannel audio source with  
5.1 outputs such as an external digital processor/  
decoder, DVD-Audio or SACD player is used,  
Audio Equipment Connections  
We recommend that you use high-quality interconnect  
cables when making connections to source equipment  
and recorders to preserve the integrity of the signals.  
connect the outputs of that device to the  
33  
6-Channel Direct Inputs  
.
Regardless of the brand of cable selected, we recom-  
mend that you use a cable constructed of multistrand  
copper with a gauge of 14 or smaller. Remember that  
in specifying cable, the lower the number, the thicker  
the cable.  
10. If an external multichannel audio source with  
7.1 outputs such as an external digital processor/  
decoder, DVD-Audio or SACD player is used,  
first connect the outputs of that device to the  
6-Channel Direct Inputs 33, and then connect  
the Surround Back Left and Surround Back Right  
1. Connect the analog output of a CD player to the  
CD Inputs .  
NOTE: If your CD player has both fixed and variable  
audio outputs, it is best to use the fixed output unless  
you find that the input to the receiver is so low that the  
sound is noisy, or so high that the signal is distorted.  
Cable with a gauge of 16 may be used for short runs  
of less than ten feet. We do not recommend that you  
use cables with an AWG equivalent of 18 or higher,  
due to the power loss and degradation in performance  
that will occur.

2. Connect the analog Play/Out jacks of a cassette  
deck, MD, CD-R or other audio recorder to the  
Tape Inputs §. Connect the analog Record/In  
jacks on the recorder to the Tape Outputs ¶  
on the DPR 1001.  
Video Equipment Connections  
Video equipment is connected in the same manner  
as audio components. Again, the use of high-quality  
interconnect cables is recommended to preserve  
signal quality.  
Cables that are run inside walls should have the  
appropriate markings to indicate listing with UL,  
CSA or other appropriate testing agency standards.  
Questions about running cables inside walls should be  
referred to your installer or a licensed electrician who  
is familiar with the NEC and/or the applicable local  
building codes in your area.  
3. Connect the output of any digital sources such as a  
CD or DVD changer or player, video game, a digital  
satellite receiver, HDTV tuner or digital cable set-top  
box or the output of a compatible computer sound  
card to the Optical or Coaxial Digital Inputs  
Although the outputs from any compatible video  
device may be connected to any video input, to sim-  
plify programming device codes into the remote con-  
trol, we recommend that a hard-drive recorder product

When connecting wires to the speakers, be certain to  
observe proper polarity. Note that the positive (+)  
terminal of each speaker connection now carries a  
specific color code as noted on page 8. However, most

4. Connect the coaxial or optical Digital Audio  
Outputs b on the rear panel of the DPR 1001  
to the matching digital input connections on a  
CD-R or MiniDisc recorder.  
5. Assemble the AM Loop Antenna supplied with the  
unit so that the tabs at the bottom of the antenna  
loop snap into the holes in the base. Connect the  
wires from the AM antenna to the Antenna  
Terminals . Make certain to connect the wire  
marked GND to the top terminal screw.  
NOTE: While most speaker manufacturers adhere  
to an industry convention of using black terminals  
for negative and red ones for positive, some  
manufacturers may vary from this configuration. To  
ensure proper phase and optimal performance, consult  
the identification plate on your speaker or the speaker’s  
manual to verify polarity. If you do not know the polarity  
of your speaker, ask your dealer for advice before  
proceeding, or consult the speaker’s manufacturer.  
Note that the DPR 1001 will not convert signals from  
composite to S-Video, or vice versa. S-Video inputs may  
only be viewed when the DPR 1001 is connected to a  
TV set or video display with S-Video capability. If you use  
both standard composite video and S-Video sources in  
your system, it is important that you connect both an  
S-Video cable and a standard composite video cable  
(a coax cable with an RCA plug on both ends) between  
the DPR 1001 and your TV or projector. Consult the  
instructions for your TV set or projector for more infor-  
mation on connecting both types of signals.  
We also recommend that the length of cable used  
to connect speaker pairs be identical. For example,  
use the same length of cable to connect the front left  
and front right, surround left and surround right, and  
surround back left and surround back right speakers,  
even if the speakers are at different distances from the  
DPR 1001.  
6. Connect the supplied FM antenna to the FM

Main Room Remote Control Extension  
If the receiver is placed behind a solid or smoked glass  
cabinet door, the obstruction may prevent the remote  
sensor from receiving commands. In this event, an  
optional remote infrared (IR) sensor may be used.  
Connect the output of the remote sensor to the Remote  
IR Input Jack .  
NOTE: In all of these options, you may connect an  
optional IR sensor in the remote room to the DPR 1001  
via an appropriate cable. Connect the sensor’s cable to  
the Multiroom IR Input £ on the DPR 1001 and use  
the Zone II remote to control the room volume. Alter-  
natively, you may install an optional volume control  
between the output of the amplifier or Surround Back  
Speaker Outputs c and the speakers.

for products that do not have a mechanical power switch  
and thus turn off when AC power is removed.  
If other Harman Kardon-compatible source equipment is  
part of the main room installation, the Remote IR  
Output Jack ¢ on the rear panel should be con-  
nected to the IR IN jack on the source equipment. This  
will enable the remote room location to control source  
equipment functions.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION  
When all audio, video and system connections have  
been made, there are a few configuration adjustments  
that must be made. A few minutes spent to correctly  
configure and calibrate the unit will greatly add to your  
listening experience.  
Subwoofers produce nondirectional sound, so they may  
be placed almost anywhere in a room. Actual placement  
should be based on room size and shape and the type  
of subwoofer used. One method of finding the optimal  
location for a subwoofer is to begin by placing it in the  
front of the room, about six inches from a wall, or near  
the front corner of the room. Another method is to  
temporarily place the subwoofer at your normal listening  
position, and then walk around the room until you find  
a spot where the subwoofer sounds best. Place the  
subwoofer in that spot. You should also follow the  
instructions of the subwoofer’s manufacturer, or you  
may wish to experiment with the best location for a  
subwoofer in your listening room.

Speaker Selection and Placement  
The placement of speakers in a multichannel home the-  
ater system can have a noticeable impact on the quality  
of sound reproduced.  
No matter which type or brand of speakers is used, the  
same model or brand of speaker should be used for the  
left front, center and right front speakers. This creates a  
seamless front soundstage and eliminates the possibility  
of distracting sonic disturbances that occur when a sound  
moves across mismatched front channel speakers.  
System Setup  
Optional Rear-Wall Mounting  
Once the speakers have been placed in the room and  
connected, the remaining steps in the setup process are  
to program the DPR 1001’s bass management system  
for the type of speakers used in your system, calibrate  
the output levels, and set the delay times used by the  
surround sound processor.  
Speaker Placement  
B) Rear speaker mounting is an alternate location for 5.1  
systems. It is required for 7.1 operation.  
Depending on the type of center channel speaker in use  
and your viewing device, place the center speaker either  
directly above or below your TV, or in the center behind  
a perforated front projection screen.  
At least 6 inches from ceiling  
You are now ready to power up the DPR 1001 to begin  
these final adjustments.  
Once the center channel speaker is installed, position the  
front left and front right speakers so that they are as far  
away from one another as the center channel speaker is  
from the preferred listening position. Ideally, the front  
channel speakers should be placed so that their tweeters  
are no more than 24" above or below the tweeter in the  
center channel speaker.  
1. Plug the AC Power Cord h into an unswitched  
AC outlet.  
At least 2 feet  
2. Open the door on the lower right corner of the front  
panel to reveal the Main Power Switch (and  
the other front panel jacks by gently pulling the door  
down from the side of the unit where the word  
OPEN appears. Press the Main Power Switch (  
in until it latches. Note that the Power Indicator  
1will turn red, indicating that the unit is in the  
Standby mode.  
Depending on the specifics of your room acoustics and  
the type of speakers in use, you may find that imaging is  
improved by moving the left front and right front speakers  
slightly forward of the center channel speaker. If possible,  
adjust all front loudspeakers so that they are aimed at ear  
height when you are seated in the listening position.  
3. Remove the protective plastic film from the front  
panel lens. If left in place, the film may affect the  
performance of your remote control.  
When the DPR 1001 is used in 5.1-channel operation,  
the preferred location for surround speakers is on the  
side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the listening  
position. In a 7.1-channel system, both side surround  
and back surround speakers are required. The center  
of the speaker should face into the room. The speakers  
should be located so that the bottom of the cabinet is  
at least two feet higher than the listeners’ ears when the  
listeners are seated in the desired area.  
Using these guidelines, you’ll find that it takes some  
experimentation to find the correct location for the front  
speakers in your particular installation. Don’t be afraid to  
move things around until the system sounds correct.  
Optimize your speakers so that audio transitions across  
the front of the room sound smooth, and that sounds  
from all speakers appear to arrive at the listening position  
at the same time (without delay from the center speaker  
compared to the left and right speakers).  
4. Install the four supplied AAA batteries in the remote  
as shown. Be certain to follow the (+) and (–)  
polarity indicators that are printed inside the battery  
compartment.  
Rear surround speakers are required when a full 7.1-  
channel system is installed, and they may also be used  
as an alternative mounting position in a 5.1-channel sys-  
tem when it is not practical to place the main surround  
speakers on the sides of the room. Speakers may be  
placed on a rear wall, behind the listening position.  
As with the side speakers, rear surrounds should be  
located so that the bottom of the cabinet is at least  
two feet higher than the listeners’ ears. The speakers  
should be no more than six feet behind the rear of the  
seating area.  
Center Front Speaker  
No more  
than 24"

The DPR 1001 features an advanced memory system  
that enables you to establish different configurations for  
the speaker configuration, digital input, surround mode,  
crossover frequency and output levels for each input  
source. This flexibility enables you to custom-tailor the  
way in which you listen to each source and have the  
DPR 1001 memorize those settings. This means, for  
example, that you may use different output levels or trims  
for different sources, or set different speaker configura-

Speaker Optimizer  
The factory default settings for the DPR 1001 have all  
inputs except for DVD configured for an analog audio  
input; for the DVD input, the Coaxial 1 Digital Input k  
is the default. The default speaker settings are “SMALL”  
for all speaker positions, and for the Subwoofer to be on.  
The default setting for the surround modes is Logic 7  
Music, although Dolby Digital or DTS will automatically be  
selected as appropriate when a source with digital  
encoding is in use.  
The Speaker Optimization function is critical to ensure  
optimal performance of the DPR. This setting tells the  
digital amplifier section which settings to use to best  
match its operation to your specific speakers. Note that  
this adjustment is electronic, not electrical, and unlike the  
“8-ohm/4-ohm” switches on older analog amplifiers, you  
do not need to turn the DPR off to change the setting.  
However, we do suggest that you do not have any pro-  
gram material playing through the DPR when the setting  
is changed.  
The DPR 1001 has two on-screen display modes,  
Semi-OSD” and Full-OSD.When making configuration  
adjustments, it is recommended that the Full-OSD mode

Making Configuration Adjustments

Before using the unit, you will probably want to change  
the settings for most inputs so that they are properly  
configured to reflect the use of digital or analog inputs,  
the type of speakers installed and the surround mode  
specifics of your home theater system. Remember that  
since the DPR 1001 memorizes the settings for each  
input individually, you will need to make these adjust-  
ments for each input used. However, once they are  
made, further adjustment is only required when system  
components are changed.

Before making this adjustment you will need to find the  
impedance specification for your speakers. This informa-  
tion is often found on a label attached to the speaker,  
and it is usually shown in the owner’s manual that came  
with your speakers. If you cannot find the information for  
your speakers, consult the manufacturer’s Web site or  
customer service department.

In cases where the speakers in a system have different  
impedance ratings, such as 8 ohms for the front left/right  
and center speakers and 6 ohms for the surround  
speakers, use the setting for the front speakers, as they  
are used most often for all types of program material.

To make this process as quick and as easy as possible,  
we suggest that you use the full-OSD system with the  
on-screen menus, and step through each input. Once  
you have completed the settings for the first input, many  
settings may be duplicated for the remaining inputs. It is  
also a good idea to set the configuration data in the  
order these items are listed in the MAINmenu, as  
some settings require a specific entry in a prior menu  
item. Remember that once the settings are made for  
one input, they must be made for all other input sources  
in your system.  
Figure 1  
If you cannot determine the speaker’s impedance, there  
is no harm in using the factory default setting of 8 ohms,  
as most home speakers are in that range.  
The semi-OSD system is also available, allowing you to  
make adjustments directly, by pressing the appropriate  
buttons on the front panel or remote control for the  
specific parameter to be adjusted. For example, to  
change the digital input for any of the sources, press the  
Digital Select Button oon the remote, or use the  
front panel buttons following the instructions shown on  
page 18.  
Since the factory default is 8 ohms, you may skip this  
section if that is the setting appropriate to your system.  
If you do want to change the setting, follow these steps.

Speaker Setup  
This menu tells the DPR 1001 which type of speakers  
are in use. This is important as it adjusts the settings that  
decide whether your system will use the 5-channel” or  
“6-channel/7-channel” modes, as well as determining  
which speakers receive low-frequency (bass) information.  
For each of these settings, use the LARGEsetting  
if the speakers for a particular position are traditional  
full-range loudspeakers. Use the SMALLsetting  
for smaller, frequency-limited satellite speakers that do  
not reproduce sounds below 200Hz. Note that when  
small” speakers are used, a subwoofer is required to  
reproduce low-frequency sounds. Remember that the  
“large” and small” descriptions do not refer to the  
actual physical size of the speakers, but to their ability to  
reproduce low-frequency sounds. If you are in doubt as  
to which category describes your speakers, consult the  
specifications in the speakers’ owner’s manual, or ask  
your dealer.  
On the LOGIC7menu, the choices are deter-  
mined by whether the 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 speaker output  
configuration is in use. In either case, the selection of a  
Logic 7 mode enables Harman Kardon’s exclusive  
Logic 7 processing to create fully enveloping, multi-  
channel surround from either two-channel Stereo or

With a 5.1 speaker configuration, you may select the  
Logic 7/5.1 Music, Cinema or Enhance modes. They  
work best with two-channel music, surround-encoded  
programs or standard two-channel programming of any  
type, respectively. When a 6.1/7.1 speaker configuration  
is in use, only the Music and Cinema modes are avail-  
able, and the output will be in a full eight-channel sound  
field. Note that the Logic 7 modes are not available  
when either Dolby Digital or DTS Digital soundtracks are  
in use. See page 26 for a complete explanation of the  
Logic 7 Surround modes.  
The Night mode is a feature of Dolby Digital that uses  
special processing to preserve the dynamic range and  
full intelligibility of a movie sound track while reducing the  
peak level. This prevents abruptly loud transitions from  
disturbing others, without reducing the sonic impact of a  
digital source. The Night mode is only available when  
specially encoded Dolby Digital signals are played.  
This menu screen also allows you to enter the settings  
for the DPR 1001’s Triple Crossover feature that allows  
a different crossover point to be used for the front  
left/right, center and surround speakers. In systems  
where full-range or tower speakers are used for the front  
soundstage or where different brands or models are in  
use at the various speaker positions, this feature allows  
you to customize the bass management circuits with a  
precision not previously possible.  
To adjust the Night mode setting for an input from the  
menu, make certain that the NIGHTline of the  
DOLBYSURRmenu (Figure 4) is highlighted.  
Next, press the /Navigation Buttons nto

"Surround Off," or pure two-channel stereo, when an  
analog signal source is present it will be routed directly  
from the input to the volume control without being  
digitized or processed. If you have full-range front  
speakers and wish to remove all digital processing  
from the circuit path, select this configuration. If you

change and then press the /Navigation Buttons  
nuntil the desired setting appears. The available  
choices at which point low-frequency information will be  
sent to the subwoofer, rather than to the main speaker  
channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz and  
200Hz. Pick the choice that is identical to the informa-  
tion for the speakers, or if an exact match is not possible,  
pick the closest choice that is ABOVE the speaker’s low-  
frequency limit or crossover point to avoid the creation of  
a low-frequency “hole” where your system will have no  
bass information.  
Due to the different distances between the listening posi-  
tion for the front-channel speakers and the surround  
speakers, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach  
your ears from the front versus surround speakers dif-  
fers. You may compensate for this difference through the  
use of the delay settings to adjust the timing for the  
speaker placement and acoustic conditions in your lis-  
tening room or home theater.  
NOTE: The Center Delay setting may only be made if  
the Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital EX mode has been  
selected, and the center channel speaker has been con-  
figured for either Small or Large. If you cannot adjust the  
center channel delay, check to make certain that these  
settings have been established in the Surround Select  
and Speaker Setup menus.  
The factory setting is appropriate for most rooms, but  
some installations create an uncommon distance  
between the front and surround speakers that may  
cause the arrival of front-channel sounds to become dis-  
connected from surround-channel sounds.  
In cases where LARGEhas been selected as the  
front channel speaker option and L/R+LFEhas  
been selected as a the subwoofer option, the front  
channel sound information below the setting shown will  
be sent to BOTH the front channel speakers and the  
subwoofer.  
When the speaker-to-listening position distance or a spe-  
cific delay time setting has been entered for the front and  
center speakers, press the ¤ Navigation Button n

(SBACK) speakers and make any adjustments needed to  
enter the correct distance from those speakers to the lis-  
tening position. Press the Set Button pwhen the

Harman Kardons exclusive EzSet remote makes it possi-  
ble to quickly and accurately set the DPR 1001’s output  
levels without the use of a sound-pressure meter, although  
manual adjustment is also available. However, for the easi-  
est setup, follow these steps while seated in the listening  
position that will be used most often:  
To change the delay settings from the front panel,  
press the Set Button !and then press the /¤  
Navigation Buttons )@until the amber LED is next  
to DELAY in the System Configuration Indicators %  
on the right side of the front panel and DELAY  
MODEappears in the Lower Display Line Band  
on-screen display. Within five seconds, press the Set  
Button !; FRONTDELAYwill now appear in  
the displays. If an adjustment is required, press the Set  
Button !again, and then press the /¤ Navigation  
Buttons )@again to enter the speaker-to-listening-  
position distance. When the desired speaker configuration  
has been selected, press the Set Button !to enter the  
setting and then repeat this procedure to select another  
speaker group if required. When all settings are complete,  
the DPR 1001 will return to normal operation and displays  
within five seconds.  
1. Make certain that all speaker positions have been  
properly configured for their “large” or “small” settings  
(as outlined above) and turn off the OSD system if it  
is in use.  
During the adjustment process for each channel,  
you will see indications of LOW, HIGH and a level  
readout in dB. This is normal, and it confirms that  
EzSet is doing its job of changing the levels to match  
the desired reference.  
2. Adjust the volume so that it is at -15dB, as shown  
in the on-screen display or Lower Display Line B.  
3. Press and hold the SPL Select Button 44 on  
the remote until the red LED under the Set Button  
plights and the LCD screen in the remote changes  
to the display shown in Figure 8.  
If a channel cannot be adjusted to the proper  
reference level, you will see FAIL displayed in  
the remote’s bottom LCD line before the test tone  
moves to the next channel. This is usually an indica-  
tion that the volume control was set too low. When  
EzSet stops circulating the tone through all channels  
and returns to normal, adjust the volume level and  
repeat the procedure from Step 3.

to the next step.  
OPERATIONAL NOTE: When making adjustments to the  
delay time using the front panel or remote control for data  
entry, the unit of measurement will be the same as the last  
settings made using the OSD menu system. To change  
the unit of measurement used for the front panel or  
remote control adjustments, you must first make a change  
at the DELAYUNITline of the DELAY  
ADJUSTmenu.  
7. After the test noise has circulated once through each  
channel, it will send the tone to each channel once  
again, to verify the settings.  
5. Press the Navigation Button nuntil the lower  
line of the remote’s LCD display shows the number of  
speakers in your system. (Dont count the subwoofer  
or speakers that are part of a multizone system!) For  
example, if you have left, center, right, surround left and  
right, and surround back left and right speakers for a full  
7.1 system, press the button twice so that the bottom  
line reads 7 CHANNELS, as shown in Figure 9.  
8. After two complete circulations of the tone, the levels  
are set. Upon completion of the second circulation,  
the LCD Information Display cwill flash  
COMPLETE three times and then go out. The  
tone will stop and the DPR 1001 will return to  
normal operation.  
If you find that the output levels chosen by EzSet are  
either uncomfortably low or high, you may repeat the pro-  
cedure. Return to Step 2 and adjust the master volume  
either slightly higher or lower to accommodate your partic-  
ular room layout and your tastes. You may repeat this pro-  
cedure as many times as necessary to achieve a desired  
result. In order to prevent possible damage to your hear-  
ing or your equipment, we emphasize that you should  
avoid setting the master volume above 0dB.  
Output Level Adjustment  
Output level adjustment is a key part of the configuration  
of any surround-sound product. It is particularly important  
for a digital receiver such as the DPR 1001, as correct  
outputs ensure that you hear sound tracks with the proper  
directionality and intensity.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Listeners are often confused about  
the operation of the surround channels. While some  
assume that sound should always be coming from each  
speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in  
the surround channels. This is because they are only used  
when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places  
sound there to create ambience, a special effect or to  
continue action from the front of the room to the rear.  
When the output levels are properly set, it is normal for  
surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially  
sure not to cover the EzSet Microphone Sensor

speaker, and automatically adjusting the output level so  
that this is correct. During the adjustment the on-screen  
display and the Lower Display Line Bwill display

Digital audio is a major advancement over analog sur-  
round processing systems such as Dolby Pro Logic. It  
delivers five discrete channels: left front, center, right front,  
left surround and right surround. Each channel reproduces  
full frequency range (20Hz to 20kHz) and offers dramati-  
cally improved dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratios.  
In addition, digital systems have the capability to deliver an  
additional channel that is specifically devoted to low-fre-  
quency information. This is the “.1” channel referred to  
when you see these systems described as 5.1,” “6.1” or  
“7.1”. The bass channel is separate from the other chan-  
nels, but since it is intentionally bandwidth-limited, sound

FEATURES  
Dolby Digital  
Available only with digital input sources encoded with Dolby Digital data. It provides up to five separate main audio channels and  
a special dedicated Low-Frequency Effects channel.  
Dolby Digital EX  
DTS 5.1  
Available when the DPR 1001 is configured for 6.1/7.1-channel operation, Dolby Digital EX is the latest version of Dolby Digital. When used with  
movies or other programs that have special encoding, Dolby Digital EX reproduces specially encoded soundtracks so that a full 6.1/7.1 sound field is  
available. When the DPR is set for 6.1/7.1 operation and a Dolby Digital signal is present, the EX mode is automatically selected. Even if specific EX  
encoding is not available to provide the additional channel, the special algorithms will derive a 6.1/7.1 output.  
When the speaker configuration is set for 5.1-channel operation, the DTS 5.1 mode is available when DVD, audio-only music or laser discs encoded  
with DTS data are played. DTS 5.1 provides up to five separate main audio channels and a special dedicated low-frequency channel.  
DTS-ES 6.1 Matrix  
DTS-ES 6.1 Discrete  
When the speaker configuration is set for 6.1/7.1 operation, playback of a DTS-encoded program source will automatically trigger the selection  
of one of the two DTS-ES modes. Newer discs with special DTS-ES discrete encoding will be decoded to provide six discrete, full-bandwidth  
channels plus a separate low-frequency channel. All other DTS discs will be decoded using the DTS-ES Matrix mode, which creates a 6.1-channel  
sound field from the original 5.1-channel soundtrack.  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
Movie  
Music  
Dolby Pro Logic II is the latest version of Dolby Laboratory’s benchmark surround technology that decodes full-range, discrete left, center right,  
right surround and left surround channels from either matrix surround encoded programs and conventional stereo sources when an analog input  
is in use. The Dolby Pro Logic II Movie mode is optimized for movie soundtracks, while the Pro Logic II Music mode should be used with  
musical selections. The Pro Logic mode re-creates original Pro Logic processing for those who prefer that presentation.  
Pro Logic  
Logic 7 Cinema  
Logic 7 Music  
Logic 7 Enhance  
Exclusive to Harman Kardon for A/V receivers, Logic 7 is an advanced mode that extracts the maximum surround information from either  
surround-encoded programs or conventional stereo material. Depending on the number of speakers in use and the selection made in the  
SURROUNDSELECTand LOGIC7menus, the “5.1” versions of Logic 7 modes are available when the 5.1 option is chosen, while  
the “7.1” versions of Logic 7 produce a full sound field presentation, including back surround speakers when the “6.1/7.1” option is chosen. The  
Logic 7 C (or Cinema) mode should be used with any source that contains Dolby Surround or similar matrix encoding. Logic 7 C delivers increased  
center-channel intelligibility, and more accurate placement of sounds with fades and pans that are much smoother and more realistic than with other  
decoding techniques. The Logic 7 M or Music mode should be used with analog or PCM stereo sources. Logic 7 M enhances the listening  
experience by presenting a wider front soundstage and greater rear ambience. Both Logic 7 modes also direct low-frequency information to the  
subwoofer (if installed and configured) to deliver maximum bass impact. The Logic 7 E (or Enhance) mode, available only when the 5.1 option is  
chosen, is an extension of the Logic 7 modes that is primarily used with musical programs. Logic 7 adds additional bass enhancement that circulates  
low frequencies in the 40Hz to 120Hz range to the front and surround speakers to deliver a less localized soundstage that appears broader and  
wider than when the subwoofer is the sole source of bass energy.  
DTS Neo:6 Cinema  
DTS Neo:6 Music  
These two modes are available when any analog source is playing to create a six-channel surround presentation from conventional Matrix-encoded  
and traditional Stereo sources. Select the Cinema version of Neo:6 when a program with any type of analog Matrix surround encoding is present.  
Select the Music version of Neo:6 for optimal processing when a nonencoded, two-channel stereo program is being played.  
Dolby 3 Stereo  
Uses the information contained in a surround-encoded or two-channel stereo program to create center-channel information. In addition, the  
information that is normally sent to the rear-channel surround speakers is carefully mixed in with the front-left and front-right channels for increased  
realism. Use this mode when you have a center-channel speaker but no surround speakers.  
Theater  
The Theater mode creates a sound field that resembles the acoustic feeling of a standard live performance theater.  
The two Hall modes create sound fields that resemble a small (Hall 1) or medium-sized (Hall 2) concert hall.  
Hall 1, Hall 2  
VMAx Near  
VMAx Far  
When only the two front-channel loudspeakers are used, Harman’s patented VMAx mode delivers a three-dimensional sound space with the illusion  
of phantom speakers” at the center and surround positions. The VMAx N, or Near Field” mode should be selected when your listening position is  
less than five feet from the speakers. The VMAx F, or Far Field” mode should be selected when your listening position is greater than five feet from  
the speakers. The VMAx modes are also available using the Headphones Output Ó. When headphones are being used, the Far Field mode will  
appear to push the sound field away from your ears, reducing the inside the head” sensation often experienced when using headphones.  
5-Channel Stereo  
7-Channel Stereo  
These modes take advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room. Depending on whether the DPR  
has been configured for either 5.1 or 6.1/7.1 operation, one of these modes, but not both, is available at any time. Ideal for playing music in  
situations such as a party, it places the same sound at the front-left and surround-left, and front-right and surround-right speakers.  
The center channel is fed a summed mono mix of the in-phase material of the left and right channels.  
Surround  
This mode turns off all surround processing and presents the pure left- and right-channel presentation of two-channel stereo programs.

to access them unless your DVD player is properly  
configured. Consult the owner’s manual for your DVD  
player for more information on the proper menu set-  
tings and disc-play commands so that the player  
sends the correct digital information to the DPR 1001.  
,
PCM  
PCM, which is the acronym for Pulse Code Modulation,  
is the type of digital bitstream used by standard CD  
audio discs. When a CD or DVD player is connected  
to the DPR 1001 and a CD is playing, the PCM  
Bitstream Indicator Awill light. You will also see  
this indication if you are playing an LD disc with the  
standard digital soundtrack.  
DTS: When the DTS indicator lights, a DTS bitstream  
is being received. When the unit senses this type of  
data, only the applicable DTS mode may be used.  
When the digital playback source is stopped, or in a  
pause, fast forward or chapter search mode, the digital  
audio data will momentarily stop. This is normal and  
does not indicate a problem with either the DPR 1001  
or the source machine. The DPR 1001 will return to  
digital playback as soon as the data is available and  
when the machine is in a standard play mode.  
PCM: When the PCM indicator lights, a standard Pulse  
Code Modulation signal is being received. This type of  
digital audio is used by compact disc and laser disc  
recordings. When a PCM bitstream is present, all  
modes except Dolby Digital and DTS are available.  
MP3  
MP3 is the popularly used description for the digital  
audio format that is technically known as “MPEG-1/  
Layer 3” audio. When a properly formatted MP3  
signal from a compatible computer or sound card,  
or from an external digital format translator, is  
connected to the DPR 1001, the MP3 Bitstream  
Indicator Awill light.  
MP3: When the MP3 indicator lights, a compatible  
MPEG 1/Layer 3 digital signal is being received. This is  
the popular audio format used by many computer pro-  
grams for recording compressed audio files. When an  
MP3 bitstream is present, the sound will automatically  
be played in the Stereo (Surround Off) mode. The sur-  
round modes are not available during MP3 playback.  
Although the DPR 1001 will decode virtually all DVD  
movies, CDs and HDTV sources, it is possible that some  
future digital sources may not be compatible with the  
DPR 1001.  
Note that not all digitally encoded programs contain  
full 5.1-channel audio. Consult the program guide  
that accompanies the DVD or laser disc to determine  
which type of audio has been recorded on the disc.  
The DPR 1001 will automatically sense the type of  
digital surround encoding used and adjust to  
accommodate it.

Surround Back Amplifier Assignment  
The DPR 1001 has a total of seven amplifier chan-

programs without the need for additional, external  
amplifiers. In most cases the DPR 1001 will be used  
for 7.1 operation, so the factory default is to have the  
surround back channels configured for surround out-  
puts. To use the DPR for full 7.1 operation, or when  
the multiroom system is not in use, there is no need to  
change the factory default setting on the first line of

Semi-OSD Settings  
Turn-On Volume Level  
The semi-OSD system places one-line messages at  
the lower third of the video display screen whenever  
the Volume, Input Source, Surround mode or tuner  
frequency of any of the configuration settings are  
changed. The semi-OSD system is helpful in that it  
enables you to have feedback on any control changes  
or remote commands using the video display when it  
is difficult to view the front panel displays. However,  
you may occasionally prefer to turn these displays off  
for a particular listening session. You may also want to  
adjust the length of time the displays remain on the  
screen. Both of those options are possible with the  
DPR 1001.  
As is the case with most audio/video receivers, when  
the DPR 1001 is turned on, it will always return to  
the volume setting in effect when the unit was turned  
off. However, you may prefer to always have the  
DPR 1001 turn on at a specific setting, regardless of  
what was last in use when the unit was turned off. To  
change the default condition so that the same volume  
level is always used at turn-on, you will need to make  
an adjustment in the ADVANCEDmenu. To  
start the adjustment, press the OSD Button  
to bring the MAINmenu (Figure 1) to the screen.  
Press the Navigation Button n, until the

Since the DPR 1001 is equipped with seven channels  
of amplification, they may be allocated to either full 7.1  
channel operation, or they may alternatively be used to  
power speakers that are fed the output of the multiroom  
system. Thus, when only 5.1 channels are required for  
the main listening room, you may power speakers in a  
second zone without the need for additional external  
amplifiers. This is a major improvement over the use of  
simple “Speaker A/B” switches, as it allows for a fully  
separate source and independent volume levels at the  
remote location.

preprogrammed with an extensive library of codes for  
many major brands, it is also possible that you may

want the remote to control the device you have select-  
ed. However, in some circumstances you may have  
configured your system so that the devices connected  
to the DPR do not correspond to the default device  
settings and the legends printed on the remote. For  
example, if your system has two VCRs you may con-  
nect the second VCR to the VID 2 input. There is no  
problem in doing that, but in normal operation the  
commands issued after selecting the VID 2 input are  
for a television, not a VCR.

remote does not turn off after you have pressed  
the “1” key, continue Steps 6 and 7 by pressing  
the available numeric keys shown until the device

all choices have been tried, the code for this spe-  
cific device is not in the DPR remote library under  
that brand name. If that is the case, we suggest

then have to program the remote manually by fol-  
lowing the Learning Commands instructions on

The DPR remote allows you to correct that situation  
through the “Changing Devices” process. That enables  
you to assign the codes from one type of device to  
a different button. For example, in the steps below,  
we will explain how to program the VID 2 buttons to  
provide the commands to operate a VCR. Of course,  
you may program the remote to have any of the  
devices take on the code set of any other device, as  
your system requires. And, with the DPR remote’s

Punch-through is a capability of the remote that  
allows the Volume controls, Channel Up/Down buttons  
or Transport keys (Play, Stop, Record, Fast Forward and  
Reverse, and Skip Up/Down) to link to a different  
device. For example, if your TV, cable box or satellite  
receiver is connected through the DPR you will  
most likely want to use the DPR’s volume control  
commands even when the remote has been set  
to issue all other commands for the video device.

the remote to do this.

Resetting the Remote  
The LCD display will remain on for ten seconds  
after a key is pressed and then turn off to conserve  
battery life.  
Depending on the way in which the remote has been  
programmed, there may be a situation where you wish  
to totally erase all changes that have been made to  
the remote and return it to the factory defaults. You  
may do that by following the steps shown below, but  
remember that once the remote is reset, ALL changes  
that have been made, including programming for use  
with other devices, learned keys, macros, punch-  
through settings and key names, will be erased and  
any settings you had previously made will have to be  
reentered.  
Additional Notes on Configuring and Operating  
the Remote:  
When the remote is being programmed, it will auto-  
matically time-out if no button is pressed within a  
thirty-second period. The message shown in Figure  
77 will appear briefly, and the remote will then exit  
the feature being programmed and any data entered  
will be lost.O U T  
When any button is held for more than thirty  
seconds the LCD will turn off and the remote will  
stop transmitting the codes to conserve battery life.
