You can also enjoy THX Surround EX (THX-certified THX speaker system recommended).
Connecting Your Speakers—Continued Connecting a Powered Subwoofer Connecting Your Speakers Speaker Configuration For the best surround-sound experience, you should connect seven speakers and a powered subwoofer. The following table shows which channels you should use based on the number of speakers you have. Number of speakers: 2 3 4 5 6 Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver’s SUBWOOFER PRE OUT to the input on your powered subwoofer.
Connecting Your Speakers—Continued Speaker Connection Precautions Read the following before connecting your speakers: • You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, be sure to set the speaker impedance to 4 ohms (see page 47). If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be activated.
Connecting Your Speakers—Continued Bi-amping Speaker Hookup Bi-amping the Front Speakers The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminal posts can be used with front speakers and surround back speakers respectively, or bi-amped to provide separate tweeter and woofer feeds for a pair of front speakers that support bi-amping, providing improved bass and treble performance. • When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to 5.1 speakers in the main room.
Connecting Your Speakers—Continued Bridged Speaker Hookup Bridging the Front Speakers The FRONT L/R and SURR BACK L/R terminal posts can be used with front speakers and surround back speakers respectively, or bridged together to provide almost double the output power for the front speakers. • When bridging is used, the AV receiver is able to drive 2 speakers in the main room (2.1 speakers if you’re using a powered subwoofer).
Connecting Antennas This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna, and how to connect commercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas. 2 Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the FM antenna into position. The AV receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner. ■ North American Model Thumbtacks, etc.
Connecting Antennas—Continued ■ Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown. ■ Other Models Push Insert wire Release TV/FM antenna splitter To AV receiver To TV (or VCR) Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
Connecting Your Components AV Connection Color Coding About AV Connections RCA-type AV connections are usually color coded: red, white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect rightchannel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs. • Before making any AV connections, read the manuals supplied with your other AV components.
Connecting Your Components—Continued Connecting Audio and Video Signals to the AV Receiver By connecting both the audio and video outputs of your DVD player and other AV components to the AV receiver, you can switch the audio and video signals simultaneously simply by changing the input source on the AV receiver. : Signal Flow Video Video Audio Audio TV, projector, etc. DVD player, etc.

Zone 2 and Zone 3—Continued Using the Remote Controller in Zone 2/3 and Multiroom Control Kits To control the AV receiver with the remote controller while you’re in Zone 2 or Zone 3, you’ll need a commercially available multiroom remote control kit for each zone. • Multiroom kits are made by Niles and Xantech. These kits can also be used when there isn’t a clear line of sight to the AV receiver’s remote sensor, such as when it’s installed inside a cabinet.
Controlling Other Components You can control your other components, including those made by other manufacturers, with the remote controller. This section explains how to: • Enter the remote control code for a component that you want to control: DVD, TV, VCR, etc. • Learn commands directly from another component’s remote controller (see page 135). • Program the Macro buttons to perform a sequence of up to eight remote control actions (see page 136).
Controlling Other Components—Continued Remote Control Codes for Integra/Onkyo Components Connected via Integra/Onkyo components that are connected via are controlled by pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver, not the component. This allows you to control components that are out of view, in a rack, for example. 1 2 Make sure the Integra/Onkyo component is connected with an cable and an analog audio cable (RCA). See page 45 for details.
Controlling Other Components—Continued To control another component, point the remote controller at it and use the buttons explained below. (You must select the appropriate remote controller mode with the Remote Mode buttons first.) With some components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.

Press the [On] button to turn on the AV receiver. 3. Press the [CD] Input Selector button to select the CD input source. 4.
Troubleshooting If you have any trouble using the AV receiver, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact the dealer from whom you purchased this unit. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, try resetting the AV receiver before contacting the dealer from whom you purchased this unit. To reset the AV receiver to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the [VCR/DVR] button, press the [Standby/On] button.
Troubleshooting—Continued The subwoofer produces no sound • If the source material contains no audio in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound. • Check the Speaker Configuration (page 101). The Zone 2/3 speakers produce no sound • The Zone 2/3 speakers only output sources that are connected to an analog input. Check to see if the source component is connected to an analog input. There’s no sound with a certain signal format • Check the digital audio output setting on the source component.
Troubleshooting—Continued Tuner Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t light up • Relocate your antenna. • Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer. • Listen to the station in mono (page 63). • When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise. • Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference. • Concrete walls weaken radio signals. • If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.
Troubleshooting—Continued USB Mass Storage Device Playback Can’t access the music files on a USB device • Make sure the USB device is plugged in properly. • The AV receiver supports USB devices that support the USB mass storage device class. However, playback may not be possible with some USB devices even if they conform to the USB mass storage device class.
