AVR 370 have two subwoofer connectors.
Rear-Panel Connectors, continued
Radio Antenna connectors: Connect the supplied AM and FM antennas to their
respective terminals for radio reception.
IR and Trigger connectors: The following IR and trigger connectors are provided:
Wi-Fi® Antenna connector (AVR 3700/AVR 370): If your home network is Wi-Fi,
connect the supplied Wi-Fi antenna here to enjoy Internet radio and content from DLNA®-
compatible devices that are connected to the network. You do not need to make a wired
network connection.
s IR Remote In/Out connectors: When the IR sensor on the front panel is blocked
(such as when the AVR is installed inside a cabinet), connect an optional IR receiver
to the IR Remote In jack. The IR Remote Out jack may be connected to the IR input of
a compatible product to enable remote control through the AVR.
Network connector: If your home network is wired, use a Cat. 5 or Cat. 5E Ethernet
cable (not supplied) to connect the AVR’s Network connector to your home network to
enjoy Internet radio and content from DLNA-compatible devices that are connected to the
network. See Connect to Your Home Network, on page 20, for more information.
HDMI® Input connectors: An HDMI connection transmits digital audio and video signals
between devices. If your source devices have HDMI connectors, using them will provide
the best possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable carries
both digital video and digital audio signals, you do not have to make any additional audio
connections for devices you connect via the HDMI connection. See Connect Your Audio
and Video Source Devices, on page 18, for more information.
s Zone 2 IR Input connector: Connect a remote IR receiver located in Zone 2 of a
multizone system to this jack to control the AVR (and any source devices connected
to the Remote IR Output connector) from the remote zone.
s 12V Trigger connector: This connector provides 12V DC whenever the AVR is on. It
can be used to turn on and off other devices such as a powered subwoofer.
Speaker connectors: Use two-conductor speaker wire to connect each set of terminals
to the correct speaker. See Connect Your Speakers, on page 17, for more information.
NOTE: The Assigned Amp speaker connectors are used for the surround back
channels in a 7.1- channel home theater, or you can reassign them to a remote room
for multizone operation or to front height channels for Dolby® Pro Logic IIz operation.
See Place Your Speakers, on page XX, for more information.
HDMI Output connectors: If your TV has an HDMI connector, use an HDMI cable (not
included) to connect it to the AVR’s HDMI Out connector. The AVR will automatically
transcode component and composite video input signals to the HDMI format (upscaling
to as high as 1080p), so you do not need to make any other connections to your TV from
the AVR or from any video source devices you connect to the AVR. NOTE: The AVR 3700
and AVR 370 have two HDMI Out connectors.
Digital Audio connectors: If your non-HDMI source devices have digital outputs,
connect them to the AVR’s digital audio connectors. NOTE: Make only one type of digital
connection (HDMI, optical or coaxial) from each device. See Connect Your Audio and Video
Source Devices, on page 18, for more information.
Notes on using the HDMI Output connector:
s When connecting a DVI-equipped display to the HDMI Out connector, use an
HDMI-to-DVI adapter and make a separate audio connection.
RS-232 connector: This connector is used to connect to external control hardware.
Consult a certified professional installer for more information.
s Make sure the HDMI-equipped display is HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection)-compliant. If it isn’t, do not connect it via an HDMI connection; use an
analog video connection instead and make a separate audio connection.
Fan Vents: These vents are used by the AVR’s fan to cool the system. Maintain a
clearance of at least three inches (75mm) from the nearest surface to avoid overheating
the unit. It is normal for the fan to remain off at most normal volume levels. An automatic
temperature sensor turns the fan on only when it is needed.
Analog Video connectors: The following Analog Video connectors are provided:
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never block the fan vents. Doing so could allow the AVR to
overheat to dangerous levels.
s Composite Video Input connectors: Use composite video connectors for video
source devices that don’t have HDMI or component video connectors. You will also
need to make an audio connection from the source device to the AVR. See Connect
Your Audio and Video Source Devices, on page 18, for more information.
Main Power switch: This mechanical switch turns the AVR’s power supply on or off. It is
usually left on, and it cannot be turned on or off using the remote control.
s Component Video Input connectors: If any of your video source devices have
component video connectors (and do not have HDMI connectors), using the
component video connectors will provide superior video performance. You will also
need to make an audio connection from the device to the receiver. See Connect Your
Audio and Video Source Devices, on page 18, for more information.
AC Input connector: After you have made and verified all other connections, plug the
supplied AC power cord into this receptacle and into an unswitched wall outlet.
s Composite Video Monitor Out connector: If your TV or video display does not
have an HDMI connector, use a composite video cable (not included) to connect the
AVR’s Composite Video Monitor Out connector to your TV ’s composite video input.
NOTE: The HDMI connection to your TV is preferred. If you use the composite video
connection to your TV, you will not be able to view the AVR’s on-screen menus.

Introduction to Home Theater
Surround Modes
Introduction to Home Theater
There are different theories as to the best way to present surround sound and to
distribute each audio channel’s sounds to the surround-sound system’s speakers.
A variety of algorithms have been developed in an effort to recreate the way we hear
sounds in the real world, resulting in a rich variety of options. Several companies
have developed different surround-sound technologies, all of which can be accurately
reproduced by your AVR:
This introductory section will help you to familiarize yourself with some basic concepts
unique to multichannel surround-sound receivers, which will make it easier for you to set
up and operate your AVR.
Typical Home Theater System
A home theater typically includes an audio/video receiver, which controls the system
and supplies amplification for the loudspeakers; a disc player; a source component for
television broadcasts (cable box, satellite dish receiver, HDTV tuner or antenna connected
to the TV); a TV or video display; and multiple loudspeakers.
s Dolby Laboratories: Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital
EX, Dolby Pro Logic® IIx and IIz.
s DTS: DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS, DTS-ES (Discrete

s HARMAN International: Logic 7®, HARMAN virtual speaker, HARMAN headphone.
The main benefit of a home theater system is its ability to produce “surround sound.”
Surround sound uses multiple speakers and amplifier channels to immerse you in the
audio/video presentation for a dramatically increased sense of realism.
s Stereo Modes: Generic modes that expand upon conventional two-channel stereo,
including 5CH and 7CH Stereo.
Appendix Table A12, on page 50, contains detailed explanations of the different surround-
sound options available on your AVR. Digital surround-sound modes, such as the Dolby
Digital and DTS modes, are available only on specially encoded programs, such as those
available via HDTV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc media and digital cable or satellite television.
Other surround modes may be used with digital and analog signals to create a different
surround presentation or to use a different number of speakers. Surround-mode selection
depends upon the number of speakers in your system, the program you are watching or
listening to, and your personal tastes.
Your AVR may have up to seven main speakers connected directly to it, plus a subwoofer.
Each main speaker is powered by its own amplifier channel inside the AVR. A system
with more than two speakers is called a multichannel system.The different main speaker
types in a home theater system are:
s Front Left and Right: The front left and right speakers are used as in a two-channel
system. In many surround-sound modes, these speakers are secondary, while the
main action, especially dialogue, is reproduced by the center speaker.
s Center: When you are watching movies and television programs, the center speaker
reproduces most of the dialogue and other soundtrack information, anchoring it with
the picture. When you are listening to a musical program, the center speaker helps
to create a seamless front soundstage, creating a realistic “you-are-there” listening
experience.
s Surround Left and Right: The surround left and right speakers produce ambient
sounds that help create a realistic and immersive surround-sound environment.
They also help recreate directional sound effects such as aircraft flyovers.
s Surround Back Left and Right: Surround back channel speakers are used with
surround modes such as the Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-
ES® (Discrete and Matrix), DTS-HD™ High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio™
and Logic 7® 7.1 modes that are designed for 7.1-channel systems.
s Front Height Left and Right: Your AVR includes Dolby Pro Logic IIz decoding, which
uses the AVR’s Assigned Amp channels as front height channels. The addition of
front height channels – an additional pair of speakers positioned above the front left
and right speakers – produces a surround-sound experience with added depth and
dimension by creating lifelike sound that comes at you from varying heights.
NOTE: You can set up your system to use either surround back speakers or front height
speakers; you cannot use both.
The surround back channel speakers are optional. If your system does not include
surround back left and right speakers, you can set up your AVR with a 5.1-channel
surround-sound system in the main listening area, and you can reassign the surround
back channel amplifiers to power loudspeakers located in another room in a multizone
system. (Alternately, you can reassign the surround back channel amplifiers to power
front height speakers for use with Dolby Pro Logic IIz. See Manual Speaker Setup, on
page 36, for more information.)
Many people expect the surround speakers to play as loudly as the front speakers.
Although you will calibrate all of the speakers in your system to sound equally loud at the
listening position, most artists use the surround speakers for ambient effects only, and
they create their programs to steer relatively little sound to these speakers.
s Subwoofer: A subwoofer is designed to play only the lowest frequencies (the deep
bass). It augments smaller, limited-range main speakers that are usually used for
the other channels. Many digital-format programs, such as movies recorded in
Dolby Digital, contain a low-frequency effects (LFE) channel that is directed to the
subwoofer. The LFE channel packs the punch of a rumbling train or airplane, or the
power of an explosion, adding realism and excitement to your home theater. Some
people use two subwoofers for additional power and for even distribution of the
sound.

AVR
Place Your Speakers
NOTE: In a 7.1-channel system, you must choose to use either surround back speakers
or front height speakers – you cannot use both simultaneously.
Place Your Speakers
Determine the locations for your system’s speakers according to their manufacturer’s
directions and the layout of your listening room. Use the illustrations below as a guide for
7.1-channel and 5.1-channel systems.
Placing the Left, Center and Right Speakers
Place the center speaker either on top of, below or mounted on the wall above or below
the TV or video display screen. Place the front left and right speakers along the circle,
about 30 degrees from the center speaker and angled toward the listener.
To create the most realistic surround-sound environment possible, you should place
your speakers in a circle with the listening position at its center. You should angle each
speaker so it directly faces the listening position. Use the diagrams below as a guide.
Place the front left, front right and center speakers at the same height, preferably at
about the same height as the listener’s ears. The center speaker should be no more than
2 feet (0.6m) above or below the left/right speakers. If you’re using only two speakers
with your AVR, place them in the front left and right positions.
TV
SUB

Placing the Surround Speakers in a 5.1-Channel System
You should place the left and right surround speakers approximately 110 degrees from
the center speaker, slightly behind and angled toward the listener. Alternatively, place
them behind the listener, with each surround speaker facing the opposite-side front
speaker. You should place the surround speakers 2 feet – 6 feet (0.6m – 1.8m) higher
than the listener’s ears.

In a 7.1-channel system, place the side surround speakers 90 degrees from the center
speaker, directly to either side of the listening position. Place the surround back left and
right speakers 150 degrees from the center speaker, directly facing the opposite-side
front speaker. You should place all the surround speakers 2 feet – 6 feet (0.6m – 1.8m)
higher than the listener’s ears.
Placing Front Height Speakers in a 7.1-Channel System
Speaker Positioning for 5.1-Channel Systems
TV
Your AVR includes Dolby Pro Logic IIz decoding, which uses the AVR’s Assigned Amp

pair of speakers positioned above the front left and right speakers – produces a surround-
sound experience with added depth and dimension by creating lifelike sound that comes
at you from varying heights.

FR
We recommend placing front height speakers at least 3 feet (0.9m) higher than the front
left and front right speakers, and directly above or farther apart than the front left and
right speakers.The higher and further apart you place the front height speakers, the more
you should angle them down and in toward the listening position.
SL
SR
NOTE: Your receiver will sound its best when the same model or brand of loudspeaker
is used for all positions.
Placing the Subwoofer
Because a room’s shape and volume can have a dramatic effect on a subwoofer’s
performance, it is best to experiment with placement so that you will find the location
that produces the best results in your particular listening room. With that in mind, these
rules will help you get started:
SBL

s In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the left and right
speakers can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and
that of the left and right speakers.
s In some rooms, the best performance could even result from placing the subwoofer
behind the listening position.
A good way to determine the best location for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in
the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various
locations in the room while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer
would be placed), and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is
best. Place the subwoofer in that location.

AVR
Types of Home Theater System Connections
Always connect the colored (+) terminal on the AVR to the (+) terminal on the speaker
(usually red), and the black (–) terminal on the AVR to the (–) terminal on the speaker
(usually black).
Types of Home Theater System Connections
There are different types of audio and video connections used to connect the AVR to your
speakers, your TV or video display, and your source devices. The Consumer Electronics
Association has established the CEA® color-coding standard.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the ( + ) and ( – ) bare wires do not touch each other or
the other terminal. Touching wires can cause a short circuit that can damage your
receiver or amplifier.

The subwoofer is a speaker dedicated to reproducing only the low (bass) frequencies,
which require more power. To obtain the best results, most speaker manufacturers offer
powered subwoofers that contain their own amplifiers. Use a single RCA audio cable to
make a line-level (non-amplified) connection from the AVR’s Subwoofer connector to a
corresponding input jack on the subwoofer.

Audio and video signals originate in source devices (components where a playback
signal originates) such as your Blu-ray Disc or DVD player, CD player, DVR (digital video
recorder) or other recorder, tape deck, game console, cable or satellite television tuner,
an iPod or iPhone (connected to the AVR’s USB port) or an MP3 player. The AVR’s FM/AM
tuner also counts as a source, even though no external connections are needed other
than the FM and AM antennas. Separate connections are required for the audio and video
portions of the source device’s signal, except for digital HDMI connections. The types of
connections you use will depend upon the capabilities of the source device and of your
TV or video display.
Speaker Connections
Speaker cables carry an amplified signal from the AVR’s speaker terminals to each
loudspeaker. They contain two wire conductors, or leads, that are differentiated in some
way, such as with colors or stripes.
The differentiation helps you maintain proper polarity, without which your system’s low-
frequency performance can suffer. Each speaker is connected to the AVR’s speaker-
output terminals using two wires, one positive (+) and one negative (–). Always connect
the positive terminal on the speaker, which is usually colored red, to the positive terminal
on the receiver, which is colored as indicated in the Connection Color Guide Table, above.
The negative terminals on the speakers and the AVR are black.
Digital Audio Connections – HDMI
There are two types of audio connections – digital and analog. Digital audio signals are
required for listening to sources encoded with digital surround modes, such as Dolby
Digital and DTS, or for uncompressed PCM digital audio. Your AVR has three types of
digital audio connections: HDMI, coaxial and optical. Do not use more than one type of
digital audio connection for each source device. However, it’s okay to make both analog
and digital audio connections to the same source.
Your AVR uses binding-post speaker terminals that can accept bare-wire cables or
banana plugs. Bare-wire cables are installed as shown below:
Your AVR is equipped with seven rear-panel HDMI input connectors, and one HDMI
monitor output connector. (The AVRs also have a front-panel HDMI input connector.) HDMI
technology enables digital audio and video information to be carried using a single cable,
delivering the highest quality picture and sound. If your TV or video display device has an
HDMI input connector, make a single HDMI connection from each source device to the
AVR. Usually, a separate digital audio connection is not required.
1. Unscrew Cap
2. Insert Bare Wire
3. Tighten Cap
The AVR’s HDMI output connection contains an Audio Return Channel (ARC) that carries
a digital audio signal from your TV or video display back to the AVR. It allows you to listen
to HDMI devices that are connected directly to your TV (such as an Internet connection)
without making an additional connection from the device to the AVR. The ARC signal
is active when the TV source is selected. See System Settings, on page 39, for more
information. (The AVR 3700 and AVR 370 have two HDMI output connections.)
Banana plugs are inserted into the hole in the middle of the terminal cap, as shown
below:
A. Tighten Cap
B. Insert Banana Connector into Hole in Cap
The HDMI connector is shaped for easy plug-in (see illustration, below), and HDMI
cable runs are limited to about 10 feet (3m). If your video display has a DVI input and is
HDCP-compliant, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter (not included), and make a separate audio
connection.

AVR
Types of Home Theater System Connections
Digital Audio Connections – Coaxial
Video Connections
Coaxial digital audio jacks are usually color-coded in orange. Although they look like
standard RCA-type analog jacks, you should not connect coaxial digital audio outputs to
analog inputs or vice versa.
Many source devices output both audio and video signals (e.g., Blu-ray Disc, DVD
player, cable television box, HDTV tuner, satellite box, VCR, DVR). In addition to an audio
connection as described above, make a video connection for each of these source
devices. Make only one type of video connection for each device.
Digital Video Connections
If you have already connected a source device to one of the AVR’s HDMI input connectors,
you have automatically made a video connection for that device, since the HDMI cable
carries both digital audio and digital video signals.
Analog Video Connections – Composite Video
Digital Audio Connections – Optical
Your AVR uses two types of analog video connections: composite video and component
video.
Optical digital audio connectors are normally covered by a shutter to protect them from
dust. The shutter opens as the cable is inserted. Optical input connectors are color-coded
using a black shutter, while optical outputs use a gray shutter.
Composite video is the basic connection most commonly available. Both the chrominance
(color) and luminance (intensity) components of the video signal are transmitted using a
single cable. The jack is usually color-coded yellow and looks like an analog audio jack.
Do not connect a composite video jack to an analog audio or coaxial digital audio jack,
or vice versa.
Analog Audio Connections
Two-channel analog connections require a stereo audio cable, with one connector for
the left channel (white) and one for the right channel (red). These two connectors are
attached to each other.
Analog Video Connections – Component Video
Component video separates the video signal into three components – one luminance
(“Y”) and two sub-sampled color signals (“Pb” and “Pr”) – that are transmitted using
three separate cables that are color-coded green (Y), blue (Pb) and red (Pr). Component
video cables that join three separate green, blue and red connectors into a single cable
are sold separately.
For source devices that have both digital and analog audio outputs, you may make both
connections. If you are going to be setting up a multizone system, remember that Zone
2 is an audio-only zone (the AVR does not have a Zone 2 video output). Therefore, make
analog connections for any audio source devices (such as a CD changer) that you will
want available for listening in Zone 2 at all times.
The analog connections also feed the analog record outputs. You may record materials
from Blu-ray Disc recordings, DVDs or other copy-protected sources using only analog
connections. Remember to comply with all copyright laws if you choose to make a copy
for your own personal use.
If your TV or video display has an HDMI connection, we recommend it as the best quality
connection. Your AVR converts composite and component analog video input signals to
the HDMI format, upscaling them to high-definition 1080p resolution.

AVR
Types of Home Theater System Connections
Radio Connections
RS-232 Connector
Your AVR uses separate terminals for the included FM and AM antennas. The FM antenna
uses a 75-ohm F-connector.
Your AVR’s RS-232 serial port may be connected to an external control system to allow
it to transmit control commands to the AVR. The port is bidirectional so that the AVR
can transmit status updates to the control device. Connecting and using the RS-232
port requires considerable technical knowledge and is best left to a professional custom
installer.
The AM antenna connector uses spring-clip terminals. After assembling the antenna as
shown below, press the levers to open the connectors, insert the bare wires into the
openings, and release the levers to secure the wires.The antenna wires are not polarized,
so you can insert either wire into either connector.
Network Connector
The AVR’s Network connector allows you to enjoy Internet radio or content from other
DLNA-compatible devices that are connected to the same network. Use a Cat. 5 or
Cat. 5E Ethernet cable to connect the AVR’s RJ-45 connector to your home network.
USB Port
The AVR can play audio files from an Apple iOS® device connected to the USB port,
and allows you to control the iOS device via the AVR remote control. The AVR can also
play MP3 and WMA audio files from a USB device inserted into the USB port. Insert the
connector or device into the USB port oriented so it fits all the way into the port. You may
insert or remove the connector or device at any time – there is no installation or ejection
procedure.
The USB port on your AVR is also used to perform firmware upgrades. If an upgrade for
the AVR’s operating system is released in the future, you will be able to download it to the
AVR using this port. Complete instructions will be provided at that time.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect a PC or other USB host/controller to the AVR’s USB
port, or you may damage both the AVR and the other device.

However, you can connect your source devices as you wish and re-assign any of the
input connections to any of the Source Buttons listed in the table according to where you
actually connect each of your source devices.
Connect Your Audio and Video Source Devices
Source devices are components where a playback signal originates, e.g. a Blu-ray
Disc™ or DVD player; a cable, satellite or HDTV tuner; etc. Your AVR has several different
types of input connectors for your audio and video source devices: HDMI, component
video, composite video, optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio and analog audio.
The connectors are not labeled for specific types of source devices; they are labeled
numerically, so you can connect your devices according to your individual system’s
make-up.
As you connect your various source devices, fill out the “Connected Component” column
in the table – it will make it easier for you to assign the various source buttons after
you have completed making all of the connections. (You will make any changes to the
source-button assignments and fill in the “Assigned Connector(s)” column later in the
setup process.)
Note: You cannot assign connectors to the Network, Radio and USB source buttons.
Your AVR’s various source buttons have default assignments to different input connectors
(listed in the “Default Connector(s)” column of the table below). For ease of setup, you
should connect each source device to the connector where the corresponding default
source button is assigned (e.g., connect your Blu-ray Disc player to HDMI 1).

AVR 3700/AVR 370 only:
If your home network is Wi-Fi®, attach the supplied Wi-Fi antenna to the AVR. You do not
need to make a wired network connection.
This method offers the benefit of reduced cost and complexity, but your home theater
system will be limited to 5.1 channels – the AVR will automatically downmix the playback

Connect IR Equipment
The AVR is equipped with Remote IR Input and Output connectors and a Zone 2 IR Input
connector that let you remotely control the AVR in a variety of situations:
We recommend that you place the Zone 2 amplifier in the same room as the AVR so that
you can use a short length of stereo audio cable along with a long run of speaker wire to
the remote room. A long run of stereo audio cable would increase the chance of signal
degradation. Depending on your Zone 2 amplifier you can distribute the audio signal to a
single pair of speakers or to several pairs placed in different rooms.
s When you place the AVR inside a cabinet or facing away from the listener, connect
an external IR receiver, such as the optional Harman Kardon HE 1000, to the AVR’s
IR In jack.

b) If the device does not turn off, enter another code number.
c) If you run out of code numbers for a device, you can search through all of the codes
in the remote’s library for dervices of its type by pressing the remote’s Up button
repeatedly until the device turns off. When it does, press the Source Selector button
to save the code.
5. Check that other functions control the device correctly. Sometimes manufacturers use
the same Power code for several models, while other function codes vary. Repeat this
process until you’ve programmed a satisfactory code set that operates most of the
device’s functions.
6. If you searched through the remote’s code library to find the code, you can find out
which code number you have programmed by pressing and holding the Source Selector
button to re-enter the Programming Mode.Then press the remote’s OK Button, and the
Source Selector button will flash in the code sequence. One flash represents “1,” two
flashes for “2,” and so forth. A series of quick flashes represents “0.” Record the code
number programmed for each device in Table A9 in the Appendix.
Repeat Steps 3 – 6 for each source device you want to control with the AVR remote.
NOTE: Remove the protective plastic from the AVR’s front panel so it doesn’t reduce the
remote control’s effectiveness.
Reassigning a Source Selector Button for a Different Device Type
Program the Remote to Control Your Source Devices and TV
You can program your AVR remote to control many brands and models of audio/video
source devices and TVs. The remote is also ready to operate your iPod or iPhone when it
is connected to the AVR’s front-panel USB port.
You can reassign a Source Button to control a different device type (for example, you can
program the Media Server button to control a DVD player).
1. Turn on the source device you want the remote to control.
2. Look up the code numbers for the device in Tables A14 – A24 in the Appendix. Write all
the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.
Each of the remote’s Source Selector buttons has been preprogrammed to control certain
types of source devices:
3. Press the Source Selector button you want to override and hold it for three seconds
as it glows red, goes dark and glows red again. Then release it. The remote is now in
the Programming mode.

repeatedly until the device turns off. When it does, press the Source Selector button
from Step 3 to save the code.
AUX: Controls HDTV tuner boxes, CD players, VCRs and PVDs.
Although the Source Selector buttons are preprogrammed for the device types listed
above, you can reassign a Source Selector button to a different device type. See
Reassigning a Source Selector Button for a Different Device Type, on page 24.
Most of the button labels on the AVR remote describe each button’s function when the
remote is used to control the AVR. However, the button may perform a different function
when used to control another device. Refer to the Remote Control Function List, Table
A13 in the Appendix.
Once you have programmed the remote, you can switch the remote’s control mode to
access the functions for a particular device by pressing the remote’s Source Selector
button for that device.
You can also program the remote to perform Macros (preprogrammed code sequences
that execute many code commands with a single button press), and for “punch-
through” programming (allowing the remote to operate a device’s channel or transport
controls when the remote is in another device’s mode). See Advanced Remote Control
Programming, on page 41, for instructions on these functions.
Follow these steps to program the Source Selector buttons for your source devices:
1. Turn on the source device you want to program the remote to control.
2. Look up the code numbers for the device in Tables A14 – A24 in the Appendix. Write all
the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.
3. Press the Source Selector button for the device and hold it as it glows red, goes dark
and glows red again. Then release it. The remote is now in the Programming mode.

Resolution to Display: This setting reflects the video output resolution, which is
dependent upon the capabilities of your TV or video display.
s When using your AVR with these new settings, be sure to press the correct
source selectors for your 2D and 3D sources.
s If you connected your TV to the AVR’s HDMI Monitor Out connector, the two devices
will communicate with each other, and the AVR will automatically select the best
available video output resolution. In almost all cases, you should leave the resolution
set to the AVR’s automatic selection. (You can override this automatic selection if
your video display’s native resolution is different from the AVR’s automatic selection.)
s If you are viewing 3D sources when an HDMI Bypass input is active, the on-
screen indications for volume level will not appear.This is normal, since all video
processing is removed in the HDMI Bypass mode.
s If your video sources are always operating at 720p or higher resolution, you
may find the HDMI Bypass mode acceptable for normal 2D viewing as well
as for 3D viewing. In this case, you may find it more convenient to use the 3D
sources at all times.
s If you connected your TV to the AVR’s Composite Video Monitor Out connector, you
must set the resolution to “480i” (AVR 3700/AVR 2700) or to “576p” (AVR 370/AVR
270) to view any content.
NOTE: If your connected TV is 4K video capable, the AVR will automatically pass 4K
video sources through to the TV in their native resolution and will upscale non-4K video
sources up to 4K.
s If you see side-by-side or top-and-bottom images while watching a 3D program,
manually switch to the HDMI Bypass mode.
Audio Effects: This submenu allows you to adjust the Dolby Volume and Dolby PLII/IIx/
IIz settings, the bass and treble tone controls, the LFE trim and the Equalization On/Off
setting for each source independently. We suggest leaving this submenu at its default
settings and returning to it later if your system requires fine-tuning. See Audio Effects
Button, on page 34, for more information.
Change Name: This selection lets you change the display name for the source, which
is useful if your source’s device type is different from the source’s preprogrammed
name. Select this line and use the Up/Down buttons to scroll forward or reverse through
the alphanumeric characters. When the desired character appears, use the Left/Right
buttons to move the cursor to the next or previous position. Move the cursor again to
leave a blank space. When you have finished, press the OK Button. The name will appear
on the AVR’s front panel and throughout the on-screen menu system.
Video Modes: This submenu allows you to make picture adjustments for each source
independently. We suggest leaving the settings at their factory defaults. You should make
picture adjustments to your video display first and use this menu only for fine-tuning. See
Video Processing, on page 34, for more information.
Adjust Lip Sync: This selection lets you resynchronize the audio and video signals from
a source to eliminate a “lip sync” problem. Lip-sync issues can occur when the video
portion of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source device or the
video display. When you make a Lip Sync adjustment, the Lip Sync menu appears by
itself, enabling you to view the video while listening to the audio. Use the Left/Right
buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms.
Surround Modes: This submenu lets you program surround modes for movies, music
and games for each source independently. Digital surround signals, such as Dolby Digital
and DTS bitstreams, are automatically played in their native formats, although you may
change the surround mode. See Audio Processing and Surround Sound, on page 33, for

buttons on the remote. The volume is displayed as a negative number of decibels (dB)
below the 0dB reference point (-90dB – +10dB).
0dB is the maximum recommended volume for your AVR. Although it’s possible to turn
the volume to a higher level, doing so may damage your hearing and your speakers. For
certain more dynamic audio materials, even 0dB may be too high, allowing for damage
to equipment. Use caution with regard to volume levels.
Dolby Volume Calibration
Dolby Volume calibration allows you to adjust the operation of the Dolby Volume
circuitry to match your particular speakers and listening environment. The Dolby Volume
circuitry in your AVR is factory-calibrated with average speaker sensitivity in mind;
however, different speakers may have different sensitivities, which will affect the overall
performance of the Dolby Volume circuitry. Use Dolby Volume calibration to adjust the
calibration of the circuitry according to the specific speakers you have.
To change the volume level display from the default decibel scale to a 0-to-90 scale,
adjust the Volume Units setting in the System Settings menu, as described in System
Settings, on page 39.
Muting the Sound
To mute all speakers and the headphones, press the Mute button on the remote. Any
recording in progress will not be affected. The MUTE message will appear in the display
as a reminder. To restore the sound, press the Mute button again, or adjust the volume.
The average home audio speaker sensitivity is 88dB SPL (1 watt/1 meter). Check the
sensitivity specification for your loudspeakers, found in the owner’s manual or on the
manufacturer’s Web site. If your speakers have a sensitivity rating greater than 88dB SPL,
increase Dolby Volume calibration by the difference between your speakers’ sensitivity
and 88dB. If they have a sensitivity rating of less than 88dB SPL, decrease Dolby Volume
calibration by the difference between your speakers’ sensitivity and 88dB.
Dolby Volume
To adjust the Dolby Volume calibration, press the AVR button and select the “System”
menu. Scroll to the Dolby Volume calibration line, which defaults to 0dB. Use the Left/
Right buttons to adjust the setting within the range of –10dB to +10dB.
YourAVR implements DolbyVolume processing,which can improve the audio performance
of the system by revealing subtle details in the sound, even at normal home-listening
volumes.
One concern of the typical home theater listener is that volumes can vary widely for
different programs played by a source (e.g., television commercial advertisements are
often much louder than the main program). Another is that details heard in the recording
studio at typically high reference volumes are lost at the lower volumes used by many
listeners at home.
Listening Through Headphones
Plug the 1/4-inch stereo plug on a pair of headphones into the front-panel Phones jack
for private listening. The default Headphone Bypass mode delivers a conventional two-
channel signal to the headphones. Press the Surround Modes button on the front panel
or the remote to switch to HARMAN headphone virtual surround processing, which
emulates a 5.1-channel speaker system. No other surround modes are available for the
headphones.
The AVR uses two Dolby Volume techniques to address these issues. The Leveler module
maintains a consistent listening volume within a source (e.g., commercial television or
different tracks on a USB drive or mix CD). The Modeler module endeavors to re-create
the reference presentation that was heard in the recording studio without losing portions
of the program at the typically lower volume levels often used in the home. When the
Modeler module is active, you may notice details of the performance that were hidden
when the program was played on other equipment.
To adjust the Dolby Volume setting, press the Audio Effects button. The Audio Effects
submenu will appear.

Advanced Functions
The second number indicates whether any surround channels are present: “0” indicates
that no surround information is present. “1” indicates that a matrixed surround signal is
present. “2” indicates discrete left and right surround channels. “3” is used with DTS-ES
bitstreams to represent the presence of the discrete surround back channel, in addition
to the side surround left and right channels. “4” is used with 7.1-channel digital formats
to indicate the presence of two discrete side surround channels and two discrete back
surround channels.
Advanced Functions
Much of the adjusting and configuration your AVR requires is handled automatically, with
little intervention required on your part. You can also customize your AVR to suit your
system and your tastes. In this section we will describe some of the more advanced
adjustments available to you.
Audio Processing and Surround Sound
Audio signals can be encoded in a variety of formats that can affect not only the quality
of the sound but the number of speaker channels and the surround mode. You may also
manually select a different surround mode, when available.
The third number is used for the LFE channel: “0” indicates no LFE channel. “.1”
indicates that an LFE channel is present.
The 6.1-channel signals – Dolby Digital EX and DTS-ES Matrix and Discrete – each
include a flag that signals the receiver to decode the surround back channel, indicated
as 3/2/.1 EX-ON for Dolby Digital EX materials, and 3/3/.1 ES-ON for DTS-ES materials.
Analog Audio Signals
Dolby Digital 2.0 signals may include a Dolby Surround flag indicating DS-ON or DS-OFF,
depending on whether the two-channel bitstream contains only stereo information or a
downmix of a multichannel program that can be decoded by the AVR’s Dolby Pro Logic
decoder. By default, these signals are played in Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie mode.
Analog audio signals usually consist of two channels – left and right. Your AVR is able to
process two-channel audio signals to produce multichannel surround sound, even
when no surround sound has been encoded in the recording. Among the available
modes are the Dolby Pro Logic II/IIx/IIz, HARMAN Virtual Speaker, DTS Neo:6, Logic
7, 5 CH and 7 CH Stereo modes. To select one of these modes, press the Surround
Modes button.
When a PCM signal is received, the PCM message and the sampling rate (32kHz,
44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz) will appear.
When only two channels – left and right – are present, the analog surround modes
may be used to decode the signal into multiple channels. If you would prefer a different
surround format than the native signal’s digital encoding, press the Surround Modes
button to display the Surround Modes menu (see Selecting a Surround Mode, on page
32).
Digital Audio Signals
Digital audio signals offer greater flexibility and capacity than analog signals, and
allow the encoding of discrete channel information directly into the signal. The result is
improved sound quality and startling directionality, since each channel’s information is
transmitted discretely. High-resolution recordings sound extraordinarily distortion-free,
especially in the high frequencies.
The Auto Select option sets the surround mode to the native signal’s digital encoding,
e.g., Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio. For two-channel
materials, the AVR defaults to the Logic 7 Movie mode. If you prefer a different surround
mode, select the surround-mode category: Virtual Surround, Stereo, Movie, Music or
Video Game. Press the OK button to change the mode.
Surround Modes
Surround-mode selection depends upon the format of the incoming audio signal as well
as your personal taste. Although there is never a time when all of the AVR’s surround
modes are available, there is usually a wide variety of modes available for a given input.
Table A12 in the Appendix, on page 50, offers a brief description of each mode and
indicates the types of incoming signals or digital bitstreams the mode may be used with.
Additional information about the Dolby and DTS modes is available on the companies’
Each surround-mode category is set to a default surround mode:
s Virtual Surround: HARMAN virtual speaker.
s Stereo: 7-CH Stereo or 5-CH Stereo (depending on how many main speakers are
present in the system).
s Movie: Logic 7 Movie.
s Music: Logic 7 Music.
s Video Game: Logic 7 Game.
When in doubt, check the jacket of your disc for more information on which surround
modes are available. Usually, nonessential sections of the disc, such as trailers, extra
materials or the disc menu, are available only in Dolby Digital 2.0 (two-channel) or
PCM two-channel mode. If the main title is playing and the display shows one of these
surround modes, look for an audio or language setup section in the disc’s menu. Also,
make sure your disc player’s audio output is set to the original bitstream rather than
two-channel PCM. Stop play and check the player’s output setting.
You may select a different mode for each category. Below is a complete list of available
surround modes. (The actual surround modes available will depend on the number of
speakers in your system.)
s Virtual Surround: HARMAN virtual speaker.
Multichannel digital recordings are produced in five-channel, six-channel or seven-
channel formats, with or without a “.1” channel. The channels included in a typical
5.1-channel recording are front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right and
LFE (low-frequency effects).The LFE channel is denoted as “.1” to represent the fact that
it is limited to the low frequencies. 6.1-channel recordings add a single surround back
channel, and 7.1-channel recordings add surround back left and surround back right
channels to the 5.1-channel configuration. New formats are available in 7.1-channel
configurations. Your AVR is able to play the new audio formats, delivering a more exciting
home theater experience.
s Stereo: 2-CH Stereo, 5-CH Stereo or 7-CH Stereo.
s Movie: Logic 7 Movie, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro Logic
IIx Movie, Dolby Pro Logic IIz.
s Music: Logic 7 Music, DTS Neo:6 Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Music, Dolby Pro Logic
IIx Music, Dolby Pro Logic IIz.
s Video Game: Logic 7 Game, Dolby Pro Logic II Game, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Game,
Dolby Pro Logic IIz.
NOTE: To use the 6.1- and 7.1-channel surround modes, the surround back channels
must be enabled. See Manual Speaker Setup, on page 36 for more information.
Once you have programmed the surround mode for each type of audio, select the
line from the Surround Modes menu to override the AVR’s automatic surround-mode
selection.The AVR will use the same surround mode the next time the source is selected.
Digital formats include Dolby Digital 2.0 (two channels only), Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby
Digital EX (6.1), Dolby Digital Plus (7.1), Dolby TrueHD (7.1), DTS-HD High-Resolution
Audio (7.1), DTS-HD Master Audio (7.1), DTS 5.1, DTS-ES (6.1 Matrix and Discrete), DTS
96/24 (5.1), two-channel PCM modes in 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz, and 5.1 or
7.1 multichannel PCM.
NOTE: Dolby Pro Logic IIx is available only if you have set up the AVR’s Assigned Amp to
Surround Back; Dolby Pro Logic IIz is available only if you have set up the AVR’s Assigned
Amp to Front Height. See Manual Speaker Setup, on page 36, for more information.
Please refer to Table A12 in the Appendix for more information on which surround modes
are available with different bitstreams.
When the AVR receives a digital signal, it detects the encoding method and the number
of channels, which is displayed briefly as three numbers, separated by slashes (e.g.,
“3/2/.1”).
The first number indicates the number of front channels in the signal: “1” represents
a monophonic recording (usually an older program that has been digitally remastered
or, more rarely, a modern program for which the director has chosen mono as a special
effect). “2” indicates the presence of the left and right channels, but no center channel.
“3” indicates that all three front channels (left, right and center) are present.

The PLIIz Height Gain control gives you the ability to change the volume of the front height
channels to suit different programs. The control has three settings: Low (normal volume),
Mid (moderate volume increase) and High (maximum volume increase). Note that you
can also fine-tune the front height channel volume levels. See Setting Channel Output
Levels Manually, on page 38, for details.
Video Mode: The default setting of Off passes the video signal through to the display
with only basic video processing. (NOTE:Video scaling cannot be turned off, but selecting
the HDMI Bypass mode in the Info menu for a source connected to one of the HDMI Input
connectors passes the video signal directly from the HDMI input connector to the HDMI
Monitor Out connector, bypassing all video processing.)
Edit Dolby PLII/Dolby PLIIx Music: Some additional settings are available for the
Dolby Pro Logic II modes. When the Dolby Pro Logic II or IIx Music modes have been

Center Width: This setting affects how vocals sound through the three front speakers.
A lower number focuses the vocal information tightly on the center channel. Higher
numbers (up to 7) broaden the vocal soundstage. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust.
Dimension: This setting affects the depth of the surround presentation, allowing you to
“move” the sound toward the front or rear of the room. The setting of “0” is a neutral
default. Setting “F-3” moves the sound toward the front of the room, while setting “R-3”
moves the sound toward the rear. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust it.
Panorama: With the Panorama mode turned on, some of the sound from the front
speakers is moved to the surround speakers, creating an enveloping “wraparound”
effect. Each press of the OK button toggles the setting On or Off.
Tone Control: This setting determines whether the treble and bass controls are active.
When it’s set to Off, the tone controls are out of the circuit, with no changes to the sound.
When it’s set to On, the bass and treble controls are in the circuit.

How to Adjust the Custom Picture Settings
Sharpness Adjustment
Set the Video Mode to Custom to display the picture settings.
Contrary to intuition, the picture will appear sharper and clearer with the sharpness
backed off from the maximum setting. Reduce the Sharpness setting on your television,
and the setting on the AVR, if necessary, to minimize the appearance of any white lines
between the bars in the gray-scale portion of the test screen.

s The color transition, seen as sharp separation of the bars.
s The performance of the color circuits in your TV (with video signals); bar edges
should show no vertical crawling dots.
Noise Reduction: Adjust this setting to Low, Medium or High to filter out signal noise.
MPEG Noise Reduction: This setting is designed to address two specific types of video
distortion: mosquito noise and blocking artifacts. If you see haziness or shimmering
around the edges of objects or the scrolling credits in a film, or if the image appears
to “pixelate” into blocks, change the MPEG Noise Reduction setting from Off to Low,
Medium or High.
Use the gray scale and the black/white fields in the test pattern to adjust the brightness
and contrast.
Brightness Adjustment
1. Turn down the color control on your TV until the color bars appear in black and white.
Cross Color Suppressor: Turn this setting on to remove cross color artifacts, which
can occur when high-frequency luminance (brightness) signals are misinterpreted as
chrominance (color) signals, causing unwanted flickering, flashing colors or rainbow
patterns. This setting is not available when you are using HDMI sources or when no video
signal is present.
2. Adjust the Contrast to the lowest level where you still can see all gray-scale bars
separately and clearly.
3. Adjust the Brightness so that the bars in the gray scale are all visible. The bar farthest
to the left has to be as black as possible rather than gray, but the next gradation must
clearly be distinct from it. The bars in the gray scale should gradually and evenly
change from black to white.
Film Mode Detect: This setting is accessible only when the Deinterlacing setting is
turned on. It compensates for the different frame rates in which film and video are shot.
Film is shot at a rate of 24 frames per second (progressive scan), while video is shot at
slightly less than 60 frames per second (interlaced).The AVR is able to detect whether the
program was originally shot on film and transferred to video (e.g., to create a DVD), and
will compensate appropriately for any authoring errors in the conversion. Select a setting
of 3:2 (for NTSC materials), 2:2 (for PAL materials), Off or Auto.
Contrast Adjustment
1. Adjust the contrast on your TV until you see a bright white bar in the lower right corner
of the screen and a deep, dark, black bar to the left.
2. If the brightness of the white bar no longer increases when the Contrast is turned
up or the borders of white letters bloom (overlight) into the black areas (drastically
decreasing the sharpness of the letters), the contrast has been turned up too much.
Reduce the Contrast until these effects disappear and the video still looks realistic.
3. If you are watching TV with ambient daylight, adjust the contrast so that a normal
video picture looks the same as the surroundings in your room; that way the eye is
relaxed when watching the TV picture. Reduce the setting when the surrounding light
is dimmed to improve the sharpness of the picture.
4. The gray scale in the middle line should retain the same distinction between each
bar as before the contrast adjustment. If not, repeat both Step 3 of the Brightness
Adjustment and the Contrast Adjustment.
Color Adjustment
1. When the brightness and contrast are set optimally, adjust the Color control. Set the
level so that the colors look strong but still natural, not overdone. If the color level is
too high, depending on the TV, some of the bars will seem wider or the color intensity
will not increase when the control is turned up. Test the color intensity with a video of
pictures of faces, flowers, fruit and vegetables.
2. Refer to a large white bar in your test pattern to tweak the warmth of the picture using
the Tint control on your TV.

Step Three – Manual Speaker Setup Menu
Manual Speaker Setup
Now you are ready to program the receiver. Sit in your usual listening position, and make
the room as quiet as possible.
YourAVR is flexible and may be configured to work with most speakers and to compensate
for the acoustic characteristics of your room.
With the receiver and video display turned on, press the AVR button to display the menu
system. Select the Speaker Setup menu, and then select Manual Setup.
The EzSet/EQ process automatically detects the capabilities of each connected speaker
and optimizes the AVR’s performance with your speakers. If you are unable to run EzSet/
EQ calibration, or if you wish to set up your AVR for your speakers manually, use the
Manual Speaker Setup on-screen menus.
Speaker Setup
Before beginning, place your loudspeakers as explained in the Place Your Speakers
section, on page 13, and connect them to the AVR. Consult the owner’s guide for the
speakers or the manufacturer’s Web site for their frequency-range specification.Although
you may set the AVR’s individual channel levels “by ear,” an SPL (sound-pressure level)
meter purchased at a local electronics store will provide greater accuracy.
Automatic Setup – EzSet/EQ

Manual Setup
Manually Adjust Speaker Settings
Record your configuration settings in Tables A3 through A12 in the Appendix for easy re-
entry after a system reset or after the AVR’s Master Power switch has been turned off or
the unit has been unplugged for more than four weeks.
NOTE: When using the AVR’s Manual Speaker Setup menus, select a video output
resolution of 720p or higher to view graphics that simplify configuration.
If you have already run the EzSet/EQ process as explained in Configure the AVR for Your
Speakers, on page 25, the AVR saved the results. To fine-tune the EzSet/EQ results, or to
configure the AVR from scratch, select Manual Setup. A screen similar to the one shown
below will appear.
Step One – Determine Your Speakers’ Crossover Frequencies
Without using the EzSet/EQ process, the AVR can’t detect how many speakers you’ve
connected to it; nor can it determine their capabilities. Consult the technical specifications
for all of your speakers and locate the frequency response, usually given as a range, e.g.,
100Hz – 20kHz ( 3dB). Write down the lowest frequency that each of your speakers
is capable of playing (100Hz in the above example) as the crossover in Table A3 in the
Appendix. NOTE: This is not the same as the crossover frequency listed in the speaker’s
specifications.
Speaker Setup
Number of Speakers
Level Adjust
For the subwoofer, write down the transducer size. The AVR’s bass management
determines which speakers will be used to play back the low-frequency (bass) portion
of the source program. Sending the lowest notes to small satellite speakers will result in
bad sound and may even damage the speakers. The highest notes may not be heard at
all through the subwoofer.

With proper bass management, the AVR divides the source signal at a crossover point.
All information above that crossover point is played through your system’s speakers,
and all information below the crossover point is played through the subwoofer. This way,
each loudspeaker in your system will perform at its best, delivering a more powerful and
enjoyable sound experience.
NOTE: All of the speaker setup submenus include the Back option. To save the current
settings, select the Back option.
To reconfigure the speakers from scratch, select the Reset option.
Step Two – Measure the Speaker Distances
For best results, adjust the submenus in this order: Number of Speakers, Crossover (Size),
Sub Mode, Distance and Level Adjust.
Ideally, all of your speakers would be placed in a circle, with the listening position at the
center. However, you may have had to place some speakers a little farther away from the
listening position than others. Sounds that are supposed to arrive simultaneously from
different speakers may blur, due to different arrival times.
Number of Speakers
This selection lets you program the correct setting for each speaker group. The settings
in this menu affect the remainder of the speaker setup process and the availability of
various surround modes at any time.
Your AVR provides a Distance adjustment that compensates for these real-world speaker
placement differences.
Measure the distance from each speaker to the listening position, and write it down
in Table A4 in the Appendix. Even if all of your speakers are the same distance from
the listening position, enter your speaker distances as described in Set the Speaker
Distances, on page 38.
Select ON when the speakers are present in the system; select OFF for positions where
no speakers are installed. The Front Left & Right setting is always ON and may not be
disabled.

s Zone 2: Select the Zone 2 option if your main system is a 5.1-channel system and
you want to use the Assigned Amp speaker outputs to power speakers in Zone 2. See
Install a Multizone System, on page 21, for more information.
s If you set the front speakers to LARGE, select one of the three following settings for
the subwoofer:
s Front Height: Select the Front Height option if your main system is a 7.1-channel
system and you are using Front Height speakers with Dolby Pro Logic IIz.
L/R+LFE: This setting sends all low-frequency information to the subwoofer,
including a) information that would normally be played through the front left and
right speakers and b) the special low-frequency effects (LFE) channel information.
s Off: Select Off if you have not connected speakers to the Assigned Amp speaker
outputs.
OFF: Select this setting when no subwoofer is in use. All low-frequency information
will be sent to the front left and right speakers.
NOTE: When you set Assigned AMP to “Zone 2,” the speakers connected to the Assigned
Amp outputs will not be configured during the EzSet/EQ process. Configure the speakers
manually, as explained below.
LFE: This setting plays low-frequency information contained in the left and right
program channels through the front left and right speakers, and directs only the
LFE-channel information to the subwoofer.
When you have finished, select the Back option or use the Back/Exit button.

For each speaker group, select one of these eight crossover frequencies: Large, 40Hz,
60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, 150Hz or 200Hz. If the speaker’s crossover frequency is
below 40Hz, select the first option, “Large.” This setting doesn’t refer to the speaker’s
physical size but to its frequency response, which is also called “full range.”
Enter the distance from each speaker to the listening position that you measured in Step
Two and recorded in Table A4 in the Appendix (see page 46). Select a speaker, then use
the Left/Right buttons to change the measurement. You can enter distances between 0
and 30 feet (9.1m). The default distance for all speakers is 10 feet (3m).
We recommend that you set the Subwoofer Crossover Frequency to the same frequency
you used for the Front Left & Right speaker setting. If you set the Front Left & Right
speakers to “Large”, we recommend that you experiment with different Subwoofer
Crossover Frequency settings to find the one that produces the best blend between the
subwoofer and Front Left & Right speakers with your system in your room.
The default unit of measurement is feet. To change the unit to meters, return to the main
AVR menu. Select the System Settings menu, then scroll down to the General Setup
section and select the Unit of Measure line. Press the OK button to change the setting.
NOTE: If you set the Assigned AMP channels to Zone 2, you will not be able to adjust

Manual Speaker Setup
Step Four – Setting Channel Output Levels Manually
Reset Levels: To reset all levels to their factory defaults of 0dB, scroll down to this line
at the bottom of the menu and press the OK button.
For a conventional stereo receiver, a simple balance control adjusts the stereo imaging
by varying the relative loudness of the left and right channels. In a home theater system
with up to seven main channels plus up to two subwoofers, achieving proper imaging
becomes both more critical and more complex. The goal is to ensure that each channel
is heard at the listening position with equal loudness (when signals of equal loudness
are played through them).
When you have finished adjusting the speaker levels, record the settings in Table A3 in
the Appendix. Then select the Back option or press the Back/Exit Button.
Notes on Setting Speaker Volumes in Home Theater Systems:
While setting your system’s individual speaker volume levels is ultimately up to your
personal taste, here are some ideas you may find helpful:
Your AVR’s EzSet/EQ calibration can handle this critical task for you simply and
automatically. However, the AVR’s Adjust Speaker Levels menu allows you to calibrate
the levels manually, either using the system’s built-in test tone or while playing source
material.
s For films and video-music programs, your overall goal should be to create an
enveloping, realistic sound field that draws you into the film or music program
without drawing your attention away from the action on the screen.
Press the AVR button to display the menu system, and then navigate to the Speaker Setup
line. Press the OK button to display the Speaker Setup menu. Select Manual Setup, press
the OK button, and then navigate to the Level Adjust line. Press the OK button to display
the Adjust Speaker Levels menu.
s For multichannel music recordings, some music producers will create a sound field
that places the musicians all around you; others will create a sound field that places
the musicians in front of you, with more subtle ambience in the surround speakers
(as you would experience in a concert hall).
s In most 5.1-channel and 7.1-channel film soundtracks, the surround speakers are
not intended to be as loud or as active as the front speakers. Adjusting the surround
speakers so they are always as loud as the front speakers could make dialogue
difficult to understand and will make some sound effects sound unrealistically loud.

Reset Levels
All of the system’s speakers will appear with their current level settings. You can adjust
each speaker’s level between –10dB and +10dB in 1dB increments.
While making adjustments, you can measure the channel levels in one of these ways:
s Preferably, use a handheld SPL meter set to the C-weighting, slow scale.Adjust each
speaker so that the meter reads 75dB when the AVR’s built-in test noise is playing.
s By ear.Adjust the levels so that the test tone sounds equally loud to you when it plays
through each speaker.
To set your levels using the AVR’s internal test tone, select the menu’s Test Tone line and
use the OK button to select between Auto and Manual:
Auto: The test tone will automatically circulate to all speakers, as indicated by the
highlight bar. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the level for any speaker when the
test tone is paused there. Use the Up/Down buttons to move the cursor to another line,
and the test tone will follow the cursor. To stop the test tone, use the Up/Down buttons to
move the cursor out of the screen’s speaker listings area.
Manual: The test tone will stay on the current speaker until you use the Up/Down
buttons to move it to another speaker. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the level for
the speaker through which the test tone is playing.
If you are using an external source to set your output levels, set Test Tone to Off, use
the Up/Down buttons to navigate to each speaker, and use the Left/Right buttons to
adjust the speaker’s level while the source plays. NOTE: If you are using a handheld SPL
meter with external source material, such as a test disc or an audio selection, play it and
adjust the AVR’s master volume control until the meter measures 75dB. Then adjust the
individual speaker levels.

Status: This line lets you turn Zone 2 on or off.
Source: This line lets you select the source input for Zone 2. You may select a different
source from the one currently operating in the main listening area. However, if the same
source has been selected for both the main listening area and Zone 2, listeners in both
areas will hear the same content.
Only analog audio sources are available to the multizone system. To hear digital devices
such as a CD player in Zone 2, follow these steps:
1. In addition to making a digital audio connection, connect the source device’s analog
audio outputs to the AVR. Make a note in Table A5 on page 47 to record which set of
analog inputs you used.
2. In the Info menu, scroll down to the Zone 2 Audio setting and select the analog audio
input. (Leave the Audio Input From Source set to the digital input.)
Notes about listening in Zone 2:
s Although you can listen to iPod as a source in Zone 2, you cannot begin iPod
playback from within Zone 2. You must initially select iPod as a source in Zone 1
and begin playback of a track or playlist from there. Then you can select iPod as the
Zone 2 source and control playback from within Zone 2 even if you switch Zone 1
to a different source.
s Only one (1) internal source (iPod, USB, FM/AM radio, vTuner, Network) can be active
at a time across both zones. For example, if you are listening to iPod as the source
in Zone 1 and switch the source in Zone 2 to FM radio, it will switch the source in
Zone 1 to FM (and vice versa). To listen to different sources in Zone 1 and Zone 2 at
the same time, at least one source must be one of the AVR’s configurable external
sources (Cable/Sat, Disc, DVR, TV, Game, Media Server, Aux, Buttons A/B/C/D) that is
connected to one of the AVR’s analog audio inputs.
Volume: Highlight this line, and use the Left/Right buttons to control the volume in Zone 2.
Assigned AMP: This line lets you assign the Assigned AMP channels to “Zone 2” for
multizone operation (see Number of Speakers, on page 37). When this line is set to Zone
2, you may configure the main listening room for only up to 5.1 channels.
To operate the multizone system using the main remote, slide the Zone Select Switch at
the bottom of the remote to the “2” position.
AVR 3700/AVR 370 only: To select a zone using the Zone 2 remote, press the Zone

NOTE: If you have trouble connecting to the network at any time, cycle the AVR into
the Standby mode, and then turn it back on.
Audio Return Channel: Selecting “Auto” will send audio from the TV to the AVR via the
HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC) connection (which is in the HDMI cable connecting
the AVR to the TV). The TV source’s “Audio Input from Source” will be automatically
reassigned to the HDMI ARC connector. This way, whenever you’re watching a source
that is connected directly to your TV (such as an Internet connection), you can listen to
the sound through the AVR.

AVR
System Settings
Volume Units: This setting lets you select whether the AVR displays the volume level in
the conventional decibel scale or on a numeric scale from 0 to 100. When the decibel
scale is used, 0dB is the maximum recommended volume, with lower volumes displayed
as negative values. (-90dB – +10dB). The decibel scale is the default setting.
Settings Lock
Settings Lock prevents the Setup Source, Speaker Setup and System settings menus
from being inadvertently changed. With Settings Lock set to On, the screen shown below
will appear whenever someone attempts to access a setting in one of those menus.
Volume Default and Volume Default Level: These two settings are used together to
program the volume level when you turn on the AVR. Set Volume Default to On, and then
set the Volume Default Level to the desired turn-on volume. When Volume Default is set
to Off, the AVR will turn on at the last-used volume setting from the previous listening
session.
Settings Lock
The settings lock is currently On.
In order to access the settings,
please select ‘Settings lock Off’.
Unit of Measure: Adjusts the speaker-distance settings for Manual Speaker Setup.
Select between meters and feet.
Language: Select the preferred language for the AVR’s on-screen menus and displays:
English, French, Spanish, German, Italian or Russian.
Cancel
Settings Lock Off
Dolby Volume Calibration: This setting determines the Dolby Volume calibration, as
described in Dolby Volume Calibration, on page 28. Refer to that section for details about
setting the calibration.
Select “Settings Lock Off” to access the settings or “Cancel” if the setting was accessed
inadvertently. NOTE: If you select “Settings Lock Off,” you will need to turn the Settings
Lock back on via the Settings Lock menu.
RS232 Control: If you have connected the AVR to an external control system via its RS-
232 port, set this line to On to enable the AVR to be controlled by the external control
system. Refer to the control system’s documentation for details.
Menu Appearance
Menu Transparency: This selection lets you determine whether video programs will be
visible when the menu system is in use. Select Normal for a fully transparent background,
Medium for partial transparency or Opaque to completely block video programs while
menus are on screen.
Volume/Status Messages: When the AVR is turned on, the volume is adjusted, the
source is changed or a change in the input signal is detected, a status message will be
displayed on the TV screen. Select how long the message remains visible, from 2 to 10
seconds, with a default of 3 seconds. Select “Off” if you do not wish to see the status
messages on the TV screen (they will still appear on the AVR’s front-panel message
display).
Menus: This setting governs how long the Surround Modes, Video Modes and Audio
Effects menus remain visible after the last adjustment: 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30
seconds, 1 minute or 5 minutes. Select “No Time-Out” to view the menus indefinitely, but
this setting is not recommended, due to the danger of “burn-in” on some video displays.
Setup and Slide-In Menus: This setting determines how long the setup menus (Main
Menu, Speaker Setup Menu, Zone 2 Menu, all slide-in menus) remain visible after the last
adjustment. Select a time-out period of 5, 10 or 15 (the default) minutes, or no time-out,
which leaves the menus on screen until manually cleared. A time-out period avoids the
possibility of burn-in damage to plasma or CRT displays.
Screen Saver: Program a time-out period for no activity (with no menus displayed)
before the AVR’s built-in screen saver begins. Select a period of 5 minutes, 10 minutes,
20 minutes, 30 minutes or 1 hour, or turn off the screen saver. A time-out period avoids
the possibility of burn-in damage to plasma or CRT displays.
System Info
Software Version: This line is informational only. From time to time, Harman Kardon
engineers may release software upgrades that improve your AVR’s performance
or add features. If you are experiencing difficulties with the AVR, a customer-service
representative may ask for the software version of your AVR to determine whether a later
upgrade is available.
Upgrade Software: If a software upgrade is released for your AVR, installation
instructions will be available in the Product Support section of the Web site or from
Harman Kardon customer service. At that time, you may access this submenu to install
the upgrade software.
IMPORTANT: During a system upgrade, do not power off the AVR or use any of its
controls. Doing so could permanently damage the AVR.

Advanced Remote Control Programming
Recording
Advanced Remote Control Programming
Two-channel analog audio signals, as well as composite video signals, are normally
available at the appropriate recording outputs. To make a recording, connect your audio
or video recorder to the appropriate AVR output connectors as described in the Making
Connections section, insert blank media in the recorder and make sure the recorder
is turned on and recording while the source is playing. Refer to the recording device’s
instructions for complete information about making recordings.
Remote Channel-Control Punch-Through
The punch-through feature allows you to operate one component while setting certain
groups of controls to operate another component. For example, while using theAVR controls
for surround modes and other audio functions, you may also use the remote to operate the
transport controls of your Blu-ray Disc player. Or while using the remote to control video
functions on your TV, you may also use the remote to change channels on your cable box.
NOTES:
1. The AVR only records analog audio signals. It does not convert digital audio signals
to analog.
To program punch-through control while operating any device:
1. For three seconds press and hold the Source Selector button for the main device the
remote will be operating. The Source Selector will light up, go dark and then light up
again, indicating the remote is in Program mode and that you may release the button.
2. HDMI and component video sources are not available for recording.
3. Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright restrictions on any material
you record. Unauthorized duplication of copyrighted materials is prohibited by law.
2. Select the type of punch-through programming.
a) For channel-control punch-through, press the Channel Up button.
b) To program transport-control punch-through, press the Play transport-control button.
Sleep Timer
The sleep timer sets the AVR to play for up to 90 minutes and then turn off automatically.
3. Press the Source Selector button for the device whose channel or transport controls
you will use while operating the device selected in the first step. The Source Selector
button will flash to confirm.
Press the Sleep button on the remote, and the time until turn-off will be displayed.
Each additional press of the Sleep button increases the play time by 10 minutes, with a
maximum of 90 minutes. The SLEEP OFF setting disables the sleep timer.
For example, to watch the TV while changing channels using the cable box, press and
hold the TV button until it lights.Then press the Channel Up button, followed by the Cable/
SAT button.
When the sleep timer has been set, the front-panel display will automatically dim to half
brightness.
If you press the Sleep button after the timer has been set, the remaining play time will be
displayed. Press the Sleep button again to change the play time.
To undo punch-through programming, follow the same steps as above, but press the
same Source Selector button in Steps 1 and 3.
Resetting the Remote
NOTE: The Volume and Mute controls are always dedicated to the AVR.
To reset the remote to its factory default condition, simultaneously press and hold the TV
Source Selector button and the “0” Number button. When the TV Source button relights,
enter the code “333.”When the TV button goes out, and all of the Source Selector buttons
flash, the remote control will be reset.
Programming Macro (Activity) Commands
In addition to their normal functions, you can also use the 0 – 9 Number buttons and AVR
Power On button to store Macro (Activity) commands – up to 11 of them. Each Macro
can send out up to 19 commands at one time from a single button push. Any AVR remote
control button’s function from any mode (except the Back/Exit button, the Light button,
and the Activity button) can be programmed into a Macro.
Processor Reset
If the AVR behaves erratically after a power surge, first turn off the rear-panel Main
Power switch and unplug the AC power cord for at least 3 minutes. Plug the cord back
in and turn the receiver on. If this procedure doesn’t help, reset the AVR’s processor as
described below.
NOTE: Use caution when programming complicated Macros. It isn’t possible to program
a pause or delay before sending additional commands after a “Power On” command, and
the component may not be ready to respond to commands immediately after powering on.
NOTE: A processor reset erases all user configurations, including video resolution,
speaker and level settings, and tuner presets. After a reset, reenter all of these settings
from your notes in the Appendix worksheets.
To program a Macro:
1. To enter the Programming mode, simultaneously press and hold the Activity button and
the Number button or AVR Power On button to which you want to assign the Macro.
To reset the AVR’s processor:
2. Press in up to 19 commands that you want stored in that Macro button. During each
successive button selection, the Source Selector button LED will blink once. Press the
Source Selector button for each device (or Setup button for the AVR itself) before you
enter individual commands. This step counts as one of the 19 commands allowed for
each Macro.
1. Press the front-panel Standby/On switch to place the unit in the Standby mode (the
Power Indicator will turn amber).
2. Press and hold the front-panel Surround Modes button for at least 5 seconds until the
RESET message appears on the front-panel Message Display.
s You can select functions from another mode by first pressing the corresponding
Source Selector button and then the buttons where those functions are located
within that mode. Pressing a Source Selector button also counts as one command.
NOTE: After performing a processor reset, wait at least 1 minute before pressing any
Source Selector buttons.
If the receiver does not function correctly after a processor reset, contact an authorized
Harman Kardon service center for assistance. Authorized service centers may be located
s For power on, press the AVR or Device Power On button.
s For power off, press the AVR or Device Power Off button.
3. Press the Activity button to end the programming process. The last Source Selector
button (or the Setup button) will flash three times.
It isn’t possible to “edit” a command within a Macro. To erase the Macro:
1. Press and hold the Activity Button and the button into which you programmed the
Macro until the Source Selector or Setup button lights up.
2. Press the Activity button to erase the Macro.
To execute a Macro:
Press the Activity button, then press the button into which you programmed the Macro.
IMPORTANT: Keep the remote aimed at the components until all of the Macro commands
have been executed. The remote can take up to 10 seconds to send out 19 Macro
commands.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Mode Group
An expansion of Dolby Pro Logic II that adds a surround back channel which may
be played through one or two surround back speakers. The Dolby Pro Logic IIx
modes may be selected not only with Dolby Digital bitstreams, but thanks to the
AVR’s post-processor, they may also be used with some DTS bitstreams to add a
surround back channel to 5.1 modes.

DTS-HD is a new high-definition audio format that complements the high-definition
video found on Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD discs. It is transmitted using a DTS core
with high-resolution extensions. Even when only DTS 5.1 surround sound is desired
(or available, if the multizone system is in use), the higher capacity of high-resolution
discs serves up DTS at twice the bit rate used on DVD-Video discs.

Logic 7
Mode Group
A HARMAN proprietary technology, Logic 7 technology enhances two-channel
and matrix-encoded recordings by deriving separate information for the surround
back channels. It provides more accurate placement of sound, improves panning
and expands the sound field, even when used with 5.1-channel systems.
Logic 7 technology uses 96kHz processing and is available in 5.1-or 7.1-channel
modes. Three variants are available.
See below
Logic 7
Movie
Especially suited to two-channel sources containing Dolby Surround or matrix
encoding, Logic 7 Movie mode increases center-channel intelligibility. The AVR is
programmed at the factory to default to this mode for two-channel signals.
