EXAMPLE ­ (bold type) indicates a specific remote control or front-panel button, or rear-panel connection jack EXAMPLE ­ (OCR type) indicates a message that is visible on the front-panel information display 1 ­ (number in a square) indicates a specific front-panel control 0 ­ (number in a circle) indicates a rear-panel connection 0 ­ (number in an oval) indicates a button or indicator on the remote å ­ (letter in an oval) indicates a button on the Zone II remote The appearance of the text or cursor for your receiver's on-screen menus may vary slightly from the illustrations in this manual. [. . . ] Figure 27 To change the setting for any of the four speaker groups Left/Right, Center, Surround or Surround Back, press the //¤ Buttons D until the line where you wish to make a change is highlighted in blue, press the Set Button F followed by the </ > Buttons Ea until the desired setting appears. The available choices at which point low-frequency information will be sent to the subwoofer (or to the Front Left/Right speakers in case subwoofer is set to OFF), rather than to the speaker channel, are 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, 150Hz and 200Hz. Pick the choice that is identical to the information for the speakers, or if an exact match is not possible, pick the closest choice that is ABOVE the speaker's lowfrequency limit to avoid the creation of a low-frequency "hole" where your system will have no bass information and press the Set Button F to confirm your choice. In cases where LARGE has been selected as the front channel speaker option and SUB L/R+LFE has been selected as the subwoofer option, the front channel sound information below the crossover point selected for the L/R front speakers (when fronts are set to "Small") will be sent to BOTH the front channel speakers and the subwoofer. The crossover settings for the Left/Right, Center, Surround and Surround Back speakers are used to determine where bass information is sent when it is derived from the main channels of a source. The setting for the menu line shown as Subwoofer is used to impose a low-pass filter point for the information in the Low Frequency Effects (LFE) channel that is a part of Dolby Digital- and DTS-encoded source material. While the LFE channel, which is the ". 1" you see in surround sound designations, is restricted to low frequency sounds, some mixes may include information that is higher in frequency than your subwoofer is capable of reproducing. To prevent unwanted sounds from being sent to subwoofers that cannot handle them and which do not have a built-in low-pass filter, the Subwoofer option line enables you to select a setting for the low-pass filter that is part of the subwoofer feed from the LFE channel. The settings available are the same as those tied to any one of the four available speaker positions on this submenu. We recommend that you use the frequency that is just slightly higher than the 10. The Speaker Configuration may also be changed at any time without using the full-OSD on-screen menu system by pressing the Speaker Selector 6 on the front panel or b on the remote control. Once the button is pressed, FRONT SPEAKER will appear in both the lower third of the video display and the Main Information Display Ò. Within five seconds, either press the </> buttons 7 on the front panel or the //¤ buttons D on the remote to select a different speaker position, or press the Set Button @F to begin the adjustment process for the front left and right speakers. When the Set button @ F has been pressed and the system is ready for a change to the front speaker setting, the on-screen display and Main Information Display Ò will read FRONT LARGE or FRONT SMALL depending on the current setting. Press the </> buttons 7 on the front panel or the //¤ buttons D on the remote until the desired setting is shown, using the instructions for "large" or "small" shown earlier, then press the Set button @F. If another speaker position needs to be changed, press the </> buttons 7 on the front panel or the //¤ buttons D on the remote to select a different speaker position, press the Set button @ F and then the </> buttons 7 on the front panel or the //¤ buttons D on the remote until the correct speaker setting is shown and press the Set button @ F again to confirm the selection. To assist in making these settings, the icons in the Speaker/Channel Input Indicators $ will change as the speaker type is selected at each position. When only the inner icon box is lit, the speaker is set for "small. When the inner " box and the two outer boxes with circles inside them are lit, the speaker is set for "large. " When no indicator appears at a speaker location, that position is set for "none" or "no" speaker. Note: These icons are available only when making setup changes without the use of the full OSD mode. ENGLISH SYSTEM CONFIGURATION 33 System Configuration As an example, in the Figure below, all speakers are set for "large, " and a subwoofer is set. To re-synchronize the front, center and surround channels at first measure and note the distance from the listening/viewing position to the front, center, surround and surround back (if any) speakers in meters. [. . . ] If the system is still operating incorrectly, there may have been an electronic discharge or severe AC line interference that has corrupted the memory or microprocessor. If these steps do not solve the problem, consult an authorized Harman Kardon service depot. 60 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Technical Specifications Audio Section Stereo Mode Continuous Average Power (FTC) 70 Watts per channel, 20Hz­20kHz, @ < 0. 07% THD, both channels driven into 8 ohms 7 Channel Surround Modes Power Per Individual Channel Front L&R channels: 55 Watts per channel, @ < 0. 07% THD, 20Hz­20kHz into 8 ohms Center channel: 55 Watts, @ < 0. 07% THD, 20Hz­20kHz into 8 ohms Surround (L & R Side, Back) channels: 55 Watts per channel, @ < 0. 07% THD, 20Hz­20kHz into 8 ohms Input Sensitivity/Impedance Linear (High Level) Signal-to-Noise Ratio (IHF-A) 200mV/47kohms 100dB FM Tuner Section Frequency Range Usable Sensitivity Signal-to-Noise Ratio Distortion Stereo Separation Selectivity Image Rejection IF Rejection AM Tuner Section Frequency Range Signal-to-Noise Ratio Usable Sensitivity Distortion Selectivity Video Section Video Format Input Level/Impedance Output Level/Impedance Video Frequency Response (Composite and S-Video) Video Frequency Response (Component) General Power Requirement Power Consumption Dimensions (Max) Width Height Depth Weight 87. 5­108MHz IHF 1. 3 µV/13. 2dBf Mono/Stereo: 70/68dB (DIN) Mono/Stereo: 0. 2/0. 3% 40dB @ 1kHz ±400kHz: 70dB 80dB 90dB ENGLISH 522­1620kHz 45dB Loop: 500µV 1kHz, 50% Mod: 0. 8% ±10kHz: 30dB Surround System Adjacent Channel Separation Analog Decoding 40dB (Pro Logic, etc. ) Dolby Digital (AC-3) 55dB DTS 55dB Frequency Response @ 1W (+0dB, ­3dB) High Instantaneous Current Capability (HCC) Transient Intermodulation Distortion (TIM) Rise Time Slew Rate 10Hz­130kHz ±35 Amps Unmeasurable 16 µsec 40V/µsec** PAL/NTSC 1Vp-p/75 ohms 1Vp-p/75 ohms 10Hz­8MHz (-3dB) 10Hz­100MHz (-3dB) AC 220­240V/50Hz 118W idle, 890W maximum (7 channels driven) 440mm 165mm 382mm 13. 9 kg Depth measurement includes knobs, buttons and terminal connections.
