Connecting Your Speakers
Thanks to the AV receiver’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of movement in your
own home—just like being in a movie theater or concert hall. You can enjoy DVDs featuring Dolby Digital or DTS.
With analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.

position
Surround left and right speakers
These speakers are used for precise sound
positioning and to add realistic ambience.
Position them at the sides of the listener, or
slightly behind, about 2–3 feet
(60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they
should be equally spaced from the listener.
Center speaker
This speaker enhances the front left
and right speakers, making sound
movements distinct and providing a
full sound image. For movies it’s used
mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV (preferably
on top) facing forward at about ear
level, or at the same height as the
front left and right speakers.
Subwoofer
The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the
LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. The vol-
ume and quality of the bass output from your
subwoofer will depend on its position, the
shape of your listening room, and your listening
position. In general, a good bass sound can be
obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front
corner, or at one-third the way along the front
wall, as shown.
Tip:
To find the best position for your sub-
woofer, while playing a movie or some music
with good bass, experiment by placing your
subwoofer at various positions within the room
and choose the one that provides the most sat-
isfying results.
Front left and right speakers
These output the main sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for
the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and
equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward slightly so as to create a triangle, with the
listener at the apex.
