INTRODUCTION TO HOME THEATER The AVR 254 may be the first multichannel surround sound receiver you have owned. Although it has more connections and features than 2-channel receivers, many of the principles are similar and the new concepts are easy to understand. This introductory section will help you to familiarize yourself with the basic concepts, which will make setup and operation smoother.
CONNECTIONS There are different types of audio and video connections used to connect the receiver to the speakers and video display, and to connect the source devices to the receiver. To make it easier to keep them all straight, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA®) has established a color-coding standard. See Table 1. Table 1 – Connection Color Guide Bare wire cables are installed as follows (see Figure 2): 1. Unscrew the terminal cap until the pass-through hole in the collar is revealed. 2.
CONNECTIONS Audio Connections There are two formats for 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 non-compressed PCM digital audio. There are three types of digital audio connections: HDMI, coaxial and optical. Any type of digital audio connection may be used for each source device, but never more than one for the same source.
CONNECTIONS required for DVD-Audio players compliant with HDMI version 1.1 or better, or HD-DVD and Blu-ray Disc players that decode the digital audio internally and output linear PCM signals in digital format. Consult the owner’s guide for your disc player for more information.
CONNECTIONS Figure 14 – AM Antenna To enjoy XM satellite radio, purchase an XM antenna module designed for use with XM Ready devices and a subscription to the XM service. We recommend the XM Mini Tuner and Home Dock Bundle, available at www.xmradio.com. The older Connect and Play module is also compatible with the AVR 254, but it may no longer be available in your area.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT Before you begin to connect cables, it is important to place your speakers in their correct locations in the room. Placement of Surround Speakers in a 5.1-Channel System Optimally, the speakers should be placed in a circle with the listening position at its center. The distance from the listening position to the video display forms the radius of the circle.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT Subwoofer Placement The subwoofer’s location is less critical, since low-frequency sounds are omnidirectional. Placing the subwoofer close to a wall or in a corner will reinforce the low frequencies, and may create a “boomy” sound. Experiment by placing the subwoofer where the listener normally sits and then walk around the room until the low frequencies sound best. Place the subwoofer in that spot. In some installations it may be desirable to use two subwoofers for a 7.2-channel system.
INSTALLATION You are now ready to connect the various components to the receiver. Before beginning, turn off all components, including the AVR 254, and unplug their power cords. Don’t plug in any of the power cords until you have finished making all of your connections. Remember that the receiver generates heat while it is on. Select a location that leaves several inches of space on all sides of the receiver. Avoid completely enclosing the receiver inside an unventilated cabinet.
INSTALLATION HDMI Connections • Choose the HDMI connection if it’s available on your source device and your TV. A HDMI connection carries both digital audio and video, enabling a single-cable connection from the source device to the AVR. Except as noted below, no other audio or video connections are required. NOTE: If your DVD-Audio, SACD, Blu-ray Disc or HD-DVD player is not capable of outputting multichannel digital audio through its HDMI output, make additional 6-/8-channel analog audio connections.
INSTALLATION • Connect the DVD player’s digital audio output to one of the Coaxial or Optical inputs on the AVR. If the player is capable of playing multichannel discs, including DVD-Audio, SACD, Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD, make the following additional connection (see Figure 23): AVR 254 • Connect the DVD player’s 6-/8-channel analog audio outputs to the 6-/8-Channel Analog Audio Inputs on the AVR.
INSTALLATION AVR 254 AVR 254 Figure 26 – Connecting a Composite or S-Video Recorder Figure 27 – Connecting a Composite- or S-Video-Equipped Set-Top Box • To make two-channel digital audio recordings, connect the recorder’s digital audio output to one of the Optical or Coaxial Inputs, and connect the AVR’s Coaxial Digital Audio Output to the recorder’s coaxial input. The AVR will convert an optical digital audio input signal to the proper format for recording via the Coaxial Digital Audio Output.
INSTALLATION To make analog audio recordings, connect the recorder’s left and right analog audio outputs to the Analog 2 Audio Inputs on the AVR, and the recorder’s analog audio inputs to the AVR’s Analog 2 Audio Outputs. No video connection is required, although the AVR will display any signal at the video input assigned to the same source as the Analog 2 Audio Inputs. See Figure 29.
INSTALLATION Step Seven – Insert Batteries in Remote The AVR 254 remote control uses four AAA batteries, which are included. To remove the battery cover located on the back of the remote, squeeze the tab and lift the cover. AVR 254 Insert the batteries, as shown in Figure 36, making sure to observe the correct polarity.
INSTALLATION from the appendix table corresponding to the device and program it into the AUX Source Selector. Similarly, the CBL/SAT Source Selector is used for either a cable or satellite television set-top box. The first digit of the product code indicates the device type. 2. Turn on your source device. 3. This step places the remote in program mode. Refer to Figure 37. Press and hold the Source Selector. The button will turn red, then go dark.
INSTALLATION To control more than one source device using the Remote IR Output, connect all sources in “daisy chain” fashion, with the AVR’s Remote IR Output connected to the first device’s Remote IR Input, the second device’s Remote IR Output connected to the next device’s Remote IR Input, and so forth. AVR 254 Step Ten – Install a Multizone System (Optional) The AVR 254 offers several methods of distributing music to other listening areas in your home.
INSTALLATION Figure 42 – AVR Power On and Source Selectors NOTES: • Any time you press one of the Source Selectors on the remote (i.e., Cable/Sat, DVD, Media Server, Radio, TV, Game or AUX), the remote will switch modes to transmit the codes programmed to operate that device. To control the receiver, press the AVR Settings Button to return the remote to AVR mode.
INITIAL SETUP Before you begin enjoying your new receiver, a few adjustments should be made to configure the AVR 254 to match your actual system. The current menu, setting line or setting will appear in the Message Display as well as on screen. Make sure that you have connected a video display to one of the video monitor outputs on the receiver.
INITIAL SETUP Figure 45 – Plug EzSet/EQ microphone into receiver. Step Three – Make sure that the AVR 254 and the video display are turned on. Press the AVR Settings Button to display the Main Menu. See Figure 43. Use the ¤ Button to highlight the Speaker Setup line, and then press the OK Button. See Figure 46.
INITIAL SETUP Step Five – During the next portion of the test, the EzSet/EQ procedure equalizes the AVR 254’s audio circuitry to compensate for the specific room characteristics and the performance capabilities of each individual speaker. To do this successfully, the EzSet/EQ microphone must be placed about two feet from each speaker in the direction toward the listening position. Wait until the on-screen instructions prompt you before moving the microphone.
INITIAL SETUP Audio Input from source: Select this line to assign the correct analog or digital audio input to the source. Refer to Table A5 in the appendix, where you noted the physical audio input the source is connected to, and select the input here. If both analog and digital audio connections were made, select the digital input here, and select the analog input at the Audio Auto Polling line below. • Assign the 6-/8-Channel Analog Audio Inputs to the Audio Auto Polling setting in the Source Info menu.
INITIAL SETUP Europe and elsewhere. The AVR 254 is capable of detecting PAL video sources and converting them to the NTSC format for display on American televisions. Adjust Lip Sync: Use this adjustment to 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 or the video display that desynchronizes it from the audio.
OPERATION Now that you have installed your system components and completed a basic configuration of your receiver, you are ready to begin enjoying your home theater system. Turning On the AVR 254 Gently press the Master Power Switch until the word OFF is no longer visible. The Power Indicator above the two power switches should light up in amber. This indicates that the AVR is in Standby mode and is ready to be turned on.
OPERATION The DOLBY H:BYPASS message indicates that Dolby Headphone surround processing is in the default bypass mode, which delivers a conventional 2-channel signal to the headphones. Additional tips for systems using HDMI: • Turn off all devices (including the TV, AVR and any source components). • Unplug the HDMI cables starting with the cable between the TV and AVR, and continuing with the cables between the AVR and each source device.
OPERATION To tune a preset station, press the ‹ / › Buttons or the Channel Control, or press the Menu Button to view the list of programmed presets and scroll to the desired selection. Press the OK Button to tune the station. You may also enter the preset number using the Numeric Keys. For presets 10 through 30 press 0 before the preset number. For example, to enter preset 21, press 0-2-1. 3. After you have programmed presets, directly enter the preset number (1 through 40) using the Alphanumeric Keys.
OPERATION 2. Only PCM digital audio signals are available for recording. Proprietary formats such as Dolby Digital and DTS may not be recorded using the digital audio connections, although if the source is connected to the AVR using analog audio connections, an analog recording may be made. 3. HDMI and component video sources are not available for recording. 4. Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright restrictions on any material you record.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS Much of the AVR 254’s performance is handled automatically, with little intervention required on your part. However, the AVR 254 is a sophisticated component, and is capable of being customized to suit your particular system and your tastes. In this section we describe some of the more advanced adjustments available on the AVR 254. You may return to this section later, when you have become more familiar with your receiver.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS The second number indicates whether any surround channels are present: Each line is set to a default surround mode: “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.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS When in doubt, check the jacket of your DVD for more information on which surround modes are available on the disc. 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 letters in the Speaker/Channel Input Indicators are not lit for all speaker locations, look for an audio or language setup section in the disc’s menu.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS Manual Setup The AVR 254 is flexibly designed to be used with almost any loudspeakers available. The flexibility comes from the AVR 254’s capability to be configured to match the characteristics of your particular speakers, and to compensate for the acoustic characteristics of your room. The EzSet/EQ process automatically detects the capabilities of each speaker, and optimizes the AVR 254’s performance in your system.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS NOTE: All of the speaker setup submenus include the Exit and Back options as shown at the bottom of Figure 58. To return to a previous menu without making any changes, select Exit. To save the current settings, select the Back option. If you previously saved EzSet/EQ results in this setup position and you wish to reconfigure the speakers from scratch, select the Reset option.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS played through the front left and right speakers and the special low-frequency effects (LFE) channel information. section, and select the Unit of Measure line. Press the OK Button to change the setting from Feet to Meters. LFE: This setting plays low-frequency information contained in the left and right program channels to the front speakers, and directs only the LFE channel information to the subwoofer.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS The best method of setting the output levels is by running the EzSet/EQ process, as described in the Initial Setup section. If any finer adjustments are desired, we recommend using the menu system to make the adjustments while playing the AVR’s built-in test tone and measuring the output using an SPL meter. Less effective would be to measure the output by ear. Press the AVR Button to display the menu system, and then navigate to the Speaker Setup line.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS • Half: Applies moderate compression. • Full: Applies the most compression. screen as sliders with values ranging from 0 to 100. The default setting for each adjustment is 50. Use the ‹ / › Buttons to change each setting’s value. When you have finished making adjustments in the Audio Effects menu, press the Audio Effects Button or the Back/Exit Button to clear the screen. Picture Adjust: Use this setting to change the aspect ratio of the displayed image.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS blocks, change the MPEG Noise Reduction setting from its default of Off to the Low, Medium or High setting to improve the picture. 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, which can cause unwanted flickering, flashing colors or rainbow patterns.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS complex, and require proper training and experience to avoid worsening the situation. Therefore, it is recommended that if you are unable to improve the picture using the available controls, contact the video display manufacturer’s authorized service representative for assistance. When you have finished making any video adjustments, press the Back/Exit Button to back out of the menu system.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS Volume: The volume is controlled separately for the remote zone. To operate the multizone system using the remote, slide the Zone Select Switch at the bottom of the remote to the “2” position (see Figure 70). Press a Source Selector to select a source input for the remote zone. Adjusting the volume or mute controls will only affect the volume in the remote zone. The on-screen menu functions will not be operative.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS Advanced Remote Control Functions The AVR 254 remote control not only operates the AVR 254, but it also serves as a universal remote that may be programmed to operate many other home theater components, as described in the Installation section. Each time you select one of your other components, the AVR remote switches to the control functions for that component.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS • The RS-232 Reset Button on the rear panel of the AVR 254 does not perform a system reset. DO NOT press the RS-232 Reset Button. To reset the AVR 254, place the receiver in Standby mode (press the front-panel Standby/On Switch so that the Power Indicator turns amber). Then press and hold the front-panel OK Button for at least five seconds until the RESET message appears in the display. Follow the directions in the note on page 32 to restore the picture if necessary.
