About Home Theater
Thanks to the AV controller’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.
You can also enjoy THX Surround EX (THX-certified THX speaker system recommended).

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.
Tip: To find the best position for your
subwoofer, 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 satisfying
results.
