About Home Theater
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. With DVDs you can enjoy DTS and Dolby Digital. With
analog or digital TV, you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS Neo:6, or Onkyo’s original DSP listening modes.

Enjoying Home Theater
Front left and right speakers
These output the overall 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 equidistant from
the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

Center speaker
This speaker enhances the
front left and right speakers,
making sound movements dis-
tinct and providing a full sound
image. In movies it’s used
mainly for dialog.
Position it close to your TV fac-
ing 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 volume and quality of the
bass output from your subwoofer will
depend on its position, the shape of your
listening room, and your listening posi-
tion. In general, a good bass sound can
be obtained by installing the subwoofer in
a front corner, or at one-third the width of
the wall, as shown.
You can connect the powered subwoofer
with two SUBWOOFER PREOUT jacks
respectively.
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 posi-
tions within the room, and choose the one
that provides the most satisfying results.

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 equidistant from the listener.

Surround back left and right
speakers
These speakers are necessary to
enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES
Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, etc. They
enhance the realism of surround
sound and improve sound localiza-
tion behind the listener. Position
them behind the listener about 2–
3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level.
Front high and surround back
speakers produce no sound at the

Front high left and right speakers
These speakers are necessary to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIz Height, etc.
They enhance significantly the spatial experience.
Position them at least 3.3 feet (100 cm) above the front left and right
speakers (and as high as possible). Although it is acceptable to
place left and right at an angle slightly wider than the front left and
right speakers. Ideally they should be positioned directly above the
front left and right speakers. Front high and surround back speakers
produce no sound at the same time.
