move the unit away from the turntable or CD player
otherwise lower the unit’s output level.
Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive
devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or
picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed
nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-530F and SKC-530C
feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations,
however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which case
you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30
minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally
activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the
magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration
effects. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the
speakers away from your TV or monitor. Note that discol-
oration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetizing
tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor.
Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the specified input power when
used for normal music reproduction. If any of the follow-
ing signals are fed to them, even if the input power is
within the specified rating, excessive current may flow in
the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:
1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.
2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.
3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator, elec-
tronic musical instrument, and so on.
4. Amplifier oscillation.
5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.
6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or discon-
necting audio cables (Always turn off your amplifier
before connecting or disconnecting cables.)
7. Microphone feedback.

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV
receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sun-
light or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in
mind when installing.
• If another remote controller of the same type is used in
the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to
equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote control-
ler may not work reliably.
• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote con-

ently, thereby draining the batteries.
• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV
receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass
doors. Keep this in mind when installing.
• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obsta-
cle between it and the AV receiver’s remote control
sensor.
Notes:
• The batteries should last for about six months,
although this will vary with usage.
• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try
replacing the batteries.
• Don’t mix new and old batteries or different types of
batteries.
• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long
time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from
leakage or corrosion.
• Expired batteries should be removed as soon as possi-
ble to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

Connecting Speakers
Enjoying Home Theater
You can use two sets of speakers with the AV receiver: speaker set A and speaker set B.
Speaker set A (supplied speakers and subwoofer) should be installed in your main listening room and can be used with
Dolby Digital and DTS surround material. Each speaker must be positioned at a specific location in your listening room
to get the best from surround sound material. The following illustration shows the best positions for your surround-
sound speakers. When speaker set B is turned on, speaker set A is reduced to 5.1-channel playback.
Speaker set B can be installed in another room. Speakers can be positioned in the standard position for stereo speakers
or however you like. Speaker set B outputs only analog input signals.
Front left and right speakers (SKF-530 FL/FR)

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 equi-
distant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, with the listener at the apex.

Subwoofer (SKW-530)
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 posi-
tion, the shape of your listening room, and
your listening position. In general, a good

To get the very best from your surround-sound system, you should also specify the distance between the listener and
each individual speaker so that the sound from each speaker arrives at the listener’s ears at the same time (see page 46).
In addition, you should set the level of each individual speaker to achieve an equal balance (see page 47.)

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format
you choose will depend on the formats supported by your other components. Use the following sections as a guide.
For video components, such as a DVD player, you must make two connections—one for audio, one for video.

Connecting the Power Cord of Another Component

The AV receiver has an AC outlet on its rear panel for
connecting the power cord of another AV component.
The other component’s power switch can then be left in
the ON position so that it turns on or off when the AV
receiver is set to On or Standby.
Caution:
• Make sure that the capacity of the component that
you connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed
the stated capacity (e.g., 100 W).
Notes:
• Onkyo components with jacks should be con-
nected directly to wall outlets, not the AV
receiver’s AC OUTLET.
• The socket type and capacity will depend on the
country in which you purchased the AV receiver.
American model

Connecting Onkyo Components
Step 1: Be sure that the Onkyo component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog audio cable (RCA).
Step 2: Make the connection.
With (Remote Interactive) you can use the following special functions:
Auto Power On/Standby
When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is in Standby, it will turn on and select
that component as the input source automatically. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all components
connected via will also enter Standby. This function will not work if a component’s power cord is connected to the
AV receiver’s AC OUTLET.
Direct Change
When playback is started on a component connected via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as
the input source. If the DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel input, you must press the
[MULTI CH] button (see page 35) to listen to all channels because the Direct Change function selects only the DVD
IN FRONT jacks.
Remote Control
You can control other -compatible Onkyo components by pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote
control sensor. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 53).
Notes:

Connecting the Power Cord

Notes:
• Before connecting the power cords, connect all of your speakers and AV components.
• Turning on the AV receiver and subwoofer may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other

Smooth Operation in a Few Easy Steps

To ensure smooth operation, here’s a few easy steps to help you configure the AV receiver before you use it for the
very first time. These settings only need to be made once.

If you have, see “Assigning Digital Inputs to Input Sources” on
page 33.

TESTING THE SPEAKERS

To test that all of the speakers are working properly, press the remote controller’s [TEST TONE] button. The
test tone will be output by each speaker in turn and the name of each speaker will appear on the display. To turn off
the test tone, press the [TEST TONE] button again.
• If the test tone is not produced by a speaker, or it’s produced by a speaker other than that shown on the display,
you may have wired the speakers incorrectly and you should check your connections (see page 19).

Because our ears are less sensitive to very low bass sounds, there’s a temptation to set

■ Abnormal Behavior
The DV-CP702 contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interfer-
ence, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely even that this should happen,
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it back in again. Alternatively, press and
hold the STOP [ ] button until “RESET” appears on the display (about 10 seconds).
■ Restoring the Default Settings

To reset the DV-CP702 to its factory defaults, turn it on and, while holding down the STOP [ ] button, press the [STANDBY/
ON] button. “INITIALIZE” appears on the display. When the reset is complete, “COMPLETE” is displayed, and the DV-
CP702 enters Standby mode.
