ADVANCED FuNCTIONS  
Much of the AVR 760/AVR 660’s performance is handled automatically, with  
little intervention required on your part. The AVR 760/AVR 660 is capable  
of being customized to suit your system and your tastes. In this Advanced  
Functions Manual, some of the more advanced adjustments available are  
described.  
Digital audio Signals  
Digital audio signals offer greater capacity, which allows the encoding of  
center and surround channel information directly into the signal. The result  
is improved sound quality and startling directionality, since each channel is  
reproduced discretely.  
auDIo proceSSInG anD SurrounD  
SounD  
Audio signals output by sources are 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.  
Even when only two channels are encoded, the digital signal allows for a  
higher sampling rate that delivers greater detail. High-resolution recordings  
sound extraordinarily distortion-free, especially at high frequencies.  
Surround modes  
Surround mode selection is dependent upon the format of the incoming  
audio signal, as well as personal taste. Table A13 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’Web sites: www.dolby.com and www.  
dtsonline.com.  
analog audio Signals  
Analog audio signals usually consist of two channels – left and right. The  
AVR 760/AVR 660 offers three options for playback:  
1. Analog Bypass Mode: The 2-channel signal is passed directly from  
the input to the volume control, without being digitized or undergoing  
any processing for bass management or surround sound. To select analog  
bypass mode:  
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 only available in Dolby Digital  
2.0 (2-channel) or PCM 2-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 player’s audio output is  
set to the original bitstream rather than 2-channel PCM. Stop play and check  
the player’s output setting.  
a) The analog audio inputs for the source must be selected. If necessary,  
KL  
press the Info Button on the remote and use the  
to the Audio Input from source setting.  
Buttons to scroll  
b) The tone controls must be disabled by setting the Tone Control to Off.  
Press the Audio Effects Button to access the Tone Control setting.  
For any incoming signal, only a limited number of surround modes are  
available. Although there is never a time when all of the AVR 760/AVR 660’s  
surround modes are available, there is usually a wide variety of modes  
available for a given input.  
c) The 2-channel Stereo mode must be selected. Press the Surround  
Modes Button to access the STEREO line of the Surround Modes  
submenu. Press the OK Button to select 2-channel Stereo.  
Multichannel digital recordings are found in the 5.1-, 6.1- or 7.1-channel  
formats. The channels included in a 5.1-channel recording are front left,  
front right, center, surround left, surround right and LFE. The LFE channel is  
denoted as “.1” to represent the fact that it is limited to the low frequencies.  
NOTE: Audio from The Bridge II source is analog, and when 2-channel  
Stereo mode is selected, the audio will be played in Analog Bypass mode.  
2. Analog Surround Modes: The AVR 760/AVR 660 is able to process  
2-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 modes, the Dolby Virtual  
Speaker modes, the DTS Neo:6 modes, the Logic 7 modes and the Stereo  
modes.  
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. The AVR 760/AVR 660 is able to play the new audio formats,  
delivering a more exciting home theater experience.  
NOTE: To use the 6.1- and 7.1-channel surround modes, the Surround  
Back channels must be enabled. See the Manual Speaker Setup section on  
page 6 for more information.  
The Digital formats are 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), 2-channel PCM modes in  
32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz, and 5.1 or 7.1 multichannel PCM.  
When a digital signal is received, the AVR 760/AVR 660 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:  
You may select a different mode. The choice of surround modes depends on  
the number of speakers in your system.  
“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 a special effect.

•
Virtual Surround: Dolby Virtual Speaker Reference or Wide  
Stereo: 2-channel stereo, 5-channel stereo or 7-channel stereo  
“2” indicates the presence of the left and right channels, but no center  
channel.  
Movie: Logic 7 Movie, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby  
Pro Logic IIx Movie  
“3” indicates that all three front channels (left, right and center) are present.  
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.  
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.  
“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.  
Please refer to Table A13 in the appendix for more information on which  
surround modes are available with different bitstreams.  
“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.  
Dolby Surround Settings  
Some additional settings are available for Dolby modes. When the Dolby Pro  
Logic II or IIx Music modes have been selected, choose the Edit submenu to  
adjust the Center Width, Dimension and Panorama settings. See Figure 27.  
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 meant to signal 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.  
Dolby Digital 2.0 signals may include a Dolby Surround flag indicating DS-ON  
or DS-OFF, depending on whether the 2-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.  
When a PCM signal is received, the PCM message and the sampling rate  
(32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz) will appear.  
Figure 27 – Dolby Pro Logic II/IIx Music Mode Settings  
Center Width: This setting affects how vocals sound through the three  
front speakers. A higher number (up to 7) focuses the vocal information  
tightly on the center channel. Lower numbers broaden the vocal soundstage.  
When only two channels – left and right – are present, the analog surround  
modes may be used to decode the signal into the remaining 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 Figure 26 in the Basic Manual).

Step tHree – manual Setup menu  
manuaL SpeaKer Setup  
Now you are ready to program the receiver. Sit in the usual listening position  
and make the room as quiet as possible.  
The AVR 760/AVR 660 is flexible and may be configured for most speakers,  
and to compensate for the acoustic characteristics of your room.  
With the receiver and video display turned on, press the AVR Settings Button  
L
to display the menu system. Use the Button to move the cursor to the  
Speaker Setup line, and press the OK Button to display the Speaker Setup  
menu. See Figure 21 in the Basic Manual.  
The EzSet/EQ II process automatically detects the capabilities of each speaker,  
and optimizes the AVR 760/AVR 660’s performance. If you are unable to run  
EzSet/EQ II calibration, or if you wish to make further adjustments, use the  
Manual Speaker Setup on-screen menus.  
If you have run the EzSet/EQ II process, the results were saved in one of the  
two listening positions (AVR 760 position 1+2, AVR 660 1 position). Adjust  
the Speaker Setup setting in the Audio Effects menu to activate the results for  
either position (AVR 660: 1 position) (see page 26-27 in the Basic Manual).  
To tweak the EzSet/EQ II results, or to configure the AVR from scratch, select  
Setup Listening Position 1 (AVR 760, AVR 660) or Setup Listening Position 2  
(AVR 760). A screen similar to the one shown in Figure 28 will appear.  
Before beginning, place your loudspeakers as explained in the Speaker  
Placement section, and connect them to the AVR. Consult the owner’s guide  
for the speakers or the manufacturer’s Web site for the frequency range  
specification. Although you may set the output levels “by ear,” an SPL (sound-  
pressure level) meter purchased at a local electronics store will provide  
greater accuracy.  
Record your configuration settings in Tables A3 through A12 in the appendix  
for easy re-entry after a system reset, or if the AVR’s Master Power Switch is  
turned off or the unit is unplugged for more than four weeks.  
NOTE: When using the AVR’s Speaker Setup menus, select a video output  
resolution of 720p or higher to view graphics that simplify configuration.  
Step one – Determine Speaker crossover  
Without using the EzSet/EQ II process, the AVR 760/AVR 660 can’t detect how  
many speakers you’ve connected to it; nor can it determine their capabilities.  
Consult the speaker’s technical specifications and locate the frequency  
response, usually given as a range, e.g., 100Hz – 20kHz ( 3dB). Write down  
the lowest frequency that each of your main speakers is capable of playing  
(100Hz in the example) as the crossover in Table A3 in the appendix. This is  
not the same as the crossover frequency listed in the speaker’s specifications.  
For the subwoofer, write down the transducer size.  
Figure 28 – Speaker Setup Position Menu  
NOTE: All of the speaker setup submenus include the Back option, as  
shown at the bottom of Figure 28. To save the current settings, select the  
Back option.  
To reconfigure the speakers from scratch, select the Reset option.  
The receiver’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 won’t sound right, and may even  
damage the speaker. The highest notes may not be heard at all through the  
subwoofer.  
For best results, adjust the submenus in this order: Number of Speakers,  
Crossover (Size), Sub Mode, Distance and Level Adjust.  
Number of Speakers  
Move the cursor to the Number of Speakers line and press the OK Button. See  
Figure 29.  
With proper bass management, the AVR 760/AVR 660 divides the source  
signal at a crossover point. All information above the crossover point is played  
through the satellite speaker, and all information below the crossover point is  
played through the subwoofer. Each loudspeaker in your system performs at  
its best, delivering an enjoyable sound experience.  
Step tWo – measure Speaker Distances  
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 further away from the listening position than others. Sounds that are  
supposed to arrive simultaneously from different speakers may blur, due to  
different arrival times.  
Figure 29 – Number of Speakers Menu  
Use the AVR’s Distance/Delay adjustment to compensate for real-world  
speaker placements.  
Program the correct setting for each speaker group: ON when the speakers are  
present in the system, and OFF for positions where no speakers are installed.  
The Front Left & Right speakers are always ON and may not be disabled. Any  
changes will be reflected in the total number of speakers displayed at the top  
of the screen.  
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 Step Three.

The setting for the surround back speakers includes a third option: Zone  
2. The AVR 760/AVR 660 is capable of multizone operation, supporting  
placement of a pair of speakers in another room. The AVR 760/AVR 660’s  
assignable surround back amplifier channels make multizone operation  
easier than ever, since an external power amplifier is not required. Select the  
Zone 2 option at this line, and connect the Surround Back Speaker Outputs to  
loudspeakers located in the remote room. The main room will be configured  
automatically for up to 5.1 channels. See the Multizone Operation section for  
more information.  
Sub Mode  
Move the cursor to the Sub Mode line. This setting depends upon how you  
programmed the front left and right speakers.  
•
If you set the front speakers to a numeric crossover frequency, the  
subwoofer setting will always be LFE. All low-frequency information  
will always be sent to the subwoofer. If you don’t have a subwoofer,  
either upgrade to full-range speakers or add a subwoofer at the earliest  
opportunity.  
•
If you set the front speakers to LARGE, select one of the three settings for  
the subwoofer.  
NOTE: When the Surround Back speakers are set to “Zone 2”, they will not  
be configured during the EzSet/EQ II process. To use the speakers in the  
main listening area, configure them as “On”, and run the EzSet/EQ II process  
for a 7.1- or 7.2-channel system. If the speakers will only be used during  
multizone operation, configure them manually, as explained below.  
♦
L/R+LFE: This setting sends all low-frequency information to the  
subwoofer, including both information that would normally be  
played through the front left and right speakers, and the special low-  
frequency effects (LFE) channel information.  
♦
♦
Off: Select this setting when no subwoofer is in use. All low-  
frequency information will be sent to the front left and right speakers.  
The settings in this menu affect the remainder of the speaker setup process  
and the availability of various surround modes at any time.  
LFE: This setting plays low-frequency information contained in the  
left and right program channels through the front speakers, and  
directs only the LFE channel to the subwoofer.  
When you have finished, select the Back option or use the Back/Exit Button.  
Adjust Crossover Frequencies Menu  
After you have programmed the number of speakers, the AVR will return  
to the Speaker Setup Position menu (see Figure 28). Navigate to the  
Crossover (Size) line and press the OK Button to display the Adjust Crossover  
Frequencies menu (see Figure 30).  
NOTE: If you are using a Harman Kardon HKTS Series speaker system,  
select the appropriate numeric crossover frequency for the Main Speaker  
groups, and the subwoofer will automatically be set to LFE.  
Adjust Speaker Distance Menu  
Placing the speakers at different distances from the listening positions can  
muddy the sound, as sounds are heard earlier or later than desired.  
Even if all of your speakers are placed the same distance from the listening  
position, do not skip this menu.  
On the Speaker Setup Position menu, move the cursor to the Distance line and  
press the OK Button to display the Adjust Speaker Distance menu. See Figure  
31.  
Figure 30 – Adjust Crossover Frequencies Menu  
The AVR will only display those speaker groups programmed in the Number of  
Speakers menu.  
Refer to Table A3 for each speaker’s crossover. For the main speakers, this is  
the lowest frequency the speaker reproduces well.  
For each main speaker, select one of the seven crossover frequencies: 40Hz,  
60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, 150Hz or 200Hz. If the 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”.  
Figure 31 – Adjust Speaker Distance Menu  
Specify the size of the subwoofer’s transducer as 8, 10, 12 or 15 inches (20,  
25, 30 or 38 cm). The AVR always sets the subwoofer crossover to 100Hz, but  
uses the transducer size for equalization. Write down the settings in Table A3  
in the appendix.  
Enter the distance from each speaker to the listening position, as measured  
in Step Two – Measure Speaker Distances and recorded in Table A4 in the  
appendix (see page 17).  
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 AVR Settings section and select the Unit of Measure line. Press  
the OK Button to change the setting.  
When you have finished entering the settings, select Back, or press the Back/  
Exit Button.  
M N  
Select a speaker, then use the  
Buttons to change the measurement. The  
values vary between 0 and 10 meter, with a default of 4 m for all speakers

Adjust the picture settings on your video display before adjusting the AVR.  
Access the picture settings from the Video Modes menu. Press the Video  
Modes Button, and the screen shown in Figure 33 will appear. The menu may  
also be accessed from the Info Settings menu.  
Zoom 1x: Displays the image as received from the source. If the image  
is in the 4:3 aspect ratio, on widescreen displays pillarbox format may be  
used. If the image is in the 16:9 aspect ratio, on full-screen (4:3) displays  
letterbox format may be used.  
•
Zoom 2x and Zoom 3x: Stretches the image evenly to completely fill  
the screen. The outer portions of the image may be cropped.  
NOTE: The settings in the Video Modes menu affect each source  
independently.  
Experiment with this setting until you find a pleasing display format for each  
program.  
Overscan: For historical reasons, there is a convention to reserve an area  
around the border of a video frame, called “overscan”, that may be viewed on  
newer high-definition displays, although it was not visible on older analog  
television sets. However, since not all displays are capable of showing this  
portion of the frame, directors avoid placing important information in that  
area.  
If your video display is capable of displaying the overscan area, turn this  
setting on to avoid seeing a black border around the image which could cause  
unwanted “burn-in” on some plasma and CRT displays. The AVR turns this  
setting off by default when the source device is connected to one of the HDMI  
Inputs. The setting is turned on by default when the source is connected to  
one of the analog video inputs.  
Figure 33 – Video Modes Menu  
Video Mode: The default setting of Off passes the video signal through to  
the display without any picture processing. Video scaling cannot be turned  
off, but selecting the HDMI Bypass mode in the Info Settings menu for a  
source connected to one of the HDMI Inputs passes the video signal directly  
from the HDMI Input to the HDMI Output, bypassing all video processing.  
Select one of these processing options to optimize the picture for the current  
program by applying adjustments to the brightness, contrast, color and  
sharpness:

MPEG Noise Reduction: This setting is designed to address two specific  
types of video distortion, mosquito noise and blocking artifacts. If you see

The color transition, seen as sharp separation of the bars.  
The performance of the color circuits in your TV (with “Video” signals); bar

Cross Color Suppressor: Turn this setting on to remove cross color  
artifacts, which can occur when high-frequency luminance (brightness)  
signals are misinterpreted as chroma (color) signals, causing unwanted  
flickering, flashing colors or rainbow patterns.  
Use the gray scale and the black/white fields in the test pattern to adjust the  
brightness and contrast.  
Flesh Tone Enhancement: Turn this setting on to improve the  
appearance of actors’ skin tones.  
Brightness Adjustment  
1. Turn down the color control on your TV until the color bars appear in black  
and white.  
Black Level: This setting is only effective when used with the Composite  
Video Output. Turn it on for a full black-level setting that provides the full  
dynamic range of black as presented on most DVDs. When turned off, the  
setting complies with NTSC standards for video with “setup”, and may be more  
appropriate when your video display has limited video processing capability.  
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.  
Deinterlacing: For historical reasons, video in the NTSC format was  
interlaced. That is, each refresh of the television screen displayed only half the  
pixels in a frame, alternating between all of the even rows of pixels and all of  
the odd rows. Modern displays are capable of displaying the complete frame  
all at once by progressively scanning all of the rows of pixels from top to  
bottom. For optimal viewing on a progressive-scan display (most flat-panel  
displays), the video images must be deinterlaced. When viewing images via  
the Composite or S-Video Monitor Output, or any time the AVR’s video output  
resolution is 576i, this setting may be turned off.  
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 type), the contrast  
has been turned up too much. Reduce the contrast until these effects  
disappear and the video still looks realistic.  
Film Mode Detect: This setting is only accessible 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  
to compensate appropriately for any authoring errors in the conversion.  
Select a setting of 3:2 (for NTSC materials), 2:2 (for PAL materials originating  
overseas), Off or Auto.  
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.  
How to adjust the custom picture Settings  
Set the Video Mode to Custom to display the picture settings, as shown in  
Figure 35.  
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 the large white bar below the gray scale to tweak the warmth of  
the picture using the Tint control on your TV.

Sharpness Adjustment  
NOTE: Only analog audio sources, including The Bridge II, are available  
to the multizone system. The USB, Network and Internet Radio sources are  
also available. To hear digital devices, such as a CD player, in the remote  
zone, follow these steps:  
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 760/AVR 660, if  
necessary, to minimize the appearance of any white lines between the bars in  
the gray scale portion of the test screen.  
1. In addition to a digital audio connection, connect the source device’s  
analog audio outputs to the AVR. Make a note in Table A5 in the  
appendix on which set of inputs was used.  
Convergence and Edge Focus  
The crosshatch pattern that surrounds the test screen may be used to evaluate  
edge focus and convergence in front- or rear-projection video displays. If you  
are unable to improve the picture using the available controls, contact the  
video display manufacturer’s authorized service representative for assistance.  
2. In the Info Settings menu, leave the Audio Input From Source setting  
at the digital audio input. Scroll down to the Zone 2 Audio setting and  
select the analog audio input.  
When you have finished making any video adjustments, press the Back/Exit  
Button.  
Volume: The volume is controlled separately for the remote zone.  
Surround Back Amps: Reassign the surround back channels to the  
multizone system. When this line is set to Zone 2, you may only configure the  
main listening room for up to 5.2 channels. EzSet/EQ II will only configure  
the main system. Use the Manual Setup section of the Speaker Setup menu  
to configure the remote speakers with this setting at Main Room, then return  
this setting to Zone 2.  
muLtIzone operatIon  
With the multizone system in use, you may enjoy an exciting 5.1- or  
5.2-channel home theater presentation in the main listening area, while  
others listen to the same materials or an entirely different presentation in  
another room.  
Carrier Out: The Carrier IR Output passes the full remote infrared signal,  
rather than a signal stripped of the carrier frequency, as is available at the  
Remote IR Output. This setting determines the source for the Carrier IR  
Output.  
Although installation of a multizone system is not complicated, it requires  
running wires inside walls. Check your local building codes and comply with  
the requirements for in-wall wiring systems, to prevent the possibility of a  
dangerous situation. If you have any questions about installing a multizone  
system, it is strongly recommended that you contact a professional custom  
installer. See Step Eleven of the Installation section on page 22 of the Basic

System Information  
Software Version: This line is informational only. From time to  
time, Harman Kardon Inc., may release software upgrades that improve  
performance or add features. If you are experiencing difficulties with the AVR,  
a customer service representative may ask for the software version of your  
product to determine whether a later upgrade is available.  
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.  
Upgrade Software: If a software upgrade is released for the  
AVR 760/AVR 660, 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.  
HDMI Audio to TV: Determines whether HDMI audio signals are passed  
through the HDMI Output to the video display. In normal operation, leave  
this setting Off, as audio will be played through the AVR. To use the TV by  
itself, without the home theater system, turn this setting On. Mute the TV’s  
speakers when using the AVR for audio.  
NOTE: During a system upgrade, do not power off the AVR or use any of its  
controls. Doing so could permanently damage the AVR.  
Dolby Volume Calibration: This setting determines the Dolby Volume  
Calibration Offset, as described on page 30 of the Basic Manual. Its default  
of 0dB is best when the system’s loudspeakers have a sensitivity rating of  
88dB (8 ohms, 1 watt, 1 meter). If your loudspeakers have a higher sensitivity  
rating, increase the Dolby Volume Calibration setting by the difference  
between your speakers’ sensitivity and 88dB. If your speakers have a lower  
sensitivity, decrease the Dolby Volume Calibration setting by the difference  
between 88dB and your speakers’ sensitivity.

2/2/.0 or .1, 3/2/.0 or .1  
• DTS-ES Matrix (played as 5.1)  
• DTS-ES Discrete (played as 5.1)  
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.  
• Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD discs encoded with DTS-HD  
modes, delivered via HDMI  
DTS-HD Master Audio  
DTS-ES Matrix  
DTS-HD Master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions  
of the studio master recording in up to 7.1 channels, for an incredibly  
accurate performance.  
• Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD discs encoded with DTS-HD  
Master Audio technology, delivered via HDMI  
DTS Extended Surround adds a single surround back channel to DTS 5.1 • DTS-ES Matrix  
digital surround sound. The Matrix version includes the surround back  
channel information “matrixed” into the left and right (side) surround  
channels, for compatibility with 5.1-channel systems.  
DTS-ES Discrete  
DTS-ES Discrete is another Extended Surround mode that adds a  
surround back channel, but this information is encoded discretely on  
the disc, and is not derived from information contained in the surround  
channels.

• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz, 192kHz)  
Turns off all surround processing and plays a pure 2-channel signal  
or a downmix of a multichannel signal. The signal is digitized and  
bass management settings are applied, making it appropriate when a  
subwoofer is used.  
• Analog (2-channel; DSP downmix available for  
multichannel)  
• Tuner  
• PCM (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz)
