About Home Theater
Thanks to the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s superb capabilities, you can enjoy surround sound with a real sense of move-
ment 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 and digital TV you can enjoy Dolby Pro Logic IIx or Onkyo’s own DSP surround 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.

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 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 back left and right
speakers
These speakers are necessary to
enjoy Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES
Matrix, DTS-ES Discrete, THX Sur-
round EX, etc. They enhance the
realism of surround sound and
improve sound localization behind
the listener. Position them behind
the listener about 2–3 feet (60–
100 cm) above ear level.
THX recommends that they be
placed as close as possible in order
to make advantage of their propri-
etary ASA (Advanced Speaker
Array) technology. If this condition is
not possible, adjust the Surr Back
Sp Spacing setting via the THX
Audio Setup. (See page 83.)
