Audyssey calibrates the system based on REFERENCE setting. After calibration, resulting setting will be achieveed accordingly. Any changes you do with the result shifts it to PREFERENCE setting.

Simply put,if your satisfied with the results, you may stick with it and thus your will enjoy REFERENCE setting especially if you set the volume to 0 db or 82 db

If your not happy with the result, you can play around with it until you get your desired result.

Please takenote that what I have posted is not out of expertise but experience gain thru the help of other HT nethusiast and after reading a lot of things about audyssey calibrations.

These are the things I could recall as part of Audyssey reminders:

1. Before doing Audyssey, set your subwoofer GAIN to halfway, subwoofer cross over to the highest setting. Run the Audyssey and if after one mic position you can save the result, save it then review the resulting subwoofer level calibration. If its on the highest + value or closer to it, you need to increase the gain level, if the result is on the highest - value, decrease the gain level setting, according to people i have asked, ideal is to get either a + 3 or - 3 db. Once this is achieved, you may proceed with the rest of the calibration.

2. After calibration, you will get a resulting xover, I was advise before that if I get a value lower than 60 hz, I need to set it at 80 hz (80 hz is the THX recommended setting). If the result is 60 and above, I can maintain it.

3. Subwoofer LPF of the LFE is recommended by THX to be set to 120 HZ.

After doing several run of calibrations, I have observed that the center channel tends to be lower in volume, several forums have also shared this observations so what I do is just adjust the center level calibration accordingly.

Someone alos shared with me that running the subwoofer at 6 db hotter provides very good result and I must agree it does.

Please continue to read on stuff and validate everyting before trying out.

Sir Tirso another question po. I tried running Audyssey again. I got readings below 60hz for front and center. I adjusted it to 80hz (THX) so far so good. Re: SVS sub, I was not satisfied with the bass. I tried setting it at 10 o'clock gain, disabled crossover, and 0 degree phase. SW setting was at -8db. Tama po ba ito or dapat naka 180 degree phase sya at more or less 9 o'clock gain?

Dapat highest setting di ba brader yung xover?

[cut_d_edge]

Mga sirs, maraming salamat sa mga advice, I will try to cantact ONKYO service center and I will consider all your advice. God bless..

[Onkyo606]

Dapat highest setting di ba brader yung xover?

the SVS has a feature that allows you to ENABLE or DISABLE crossover through the subwoofer itself,this allows the reciver to set the cross over instead, which according to people I have consulted and readings on audyssey is the best option. Setting the subwoofer cross over to the highest on the subwoofer itself is similar to DISABLING the crossoever setting on the subwoofer itslef and allowing the receiver to control crossover from waht I understand.

Pa correct na lang po kung nagulo ko ang usapan

[jao143]

Got your pm sir. Really appreciate it.

[zerukul]

mga sir,

Hingi po sana ako ng tips sa pagconfigure manually ng onkyo receiver ko, wala po kasing akong audyssey mic at feeling ko ndi ko nakukuha ung best na tunog ng speakers ko.

Thanks in advance!

anong model ng receiver bro?
wala ba talaga kasama mic?  or nawala lang?

wla talagang mic nung pagbili ko eh. ung model ng receiver ko is tx-sr506.

kung wala kang mahiram na friend best option mo is thru Allan (toy 01). Meron syang US credit card na pwedeng bumili kahit anong online store sa US kasama ang Shop Onkyo na nagbebenta ng Onkyo accessories. Mura lang yon at nakabili na ako sa kanya nuon. 

[ninjababez®]

quick question lang mga sir.

receiver is onkyo 508.
using HTPC hdmi for video and coax for digital sound.

selected HD audio via windows sound settings (audio goes out via coax, stereo or 5.1 etc.)

setup 1:
htpc HDMI > receiver > TV
htpc COAX> receiver

hindi kaya may issue yung coax port ng htpc mo, kasi if you set it up that your hdmi will output video only, then with the coax into the receiver dapat nag 5.1 na sya even with setup 1. but you said it outputted stereo, meaning audio and video are coming out via hdmi.

setup 2:
htpc HDMI > TV
htpc COAX> receiver

hence, when you connected hdmi directly to tv. and coax to receiver already. no sound output.

setup 1 does work but with stereo output only, since my htpc built-in hdmi can only do stereo.
setup 2 works digital audio. (dts and dd)

i already setup my hdmi 1 blu/dvd to coax1 but it does not seem to work, wala na audio at all maski stereo
may mali ba akong ginagawa? 

kung may dvd hdmi player ka, try to set it up like you did with the htpc. hdmi to tv tapos coax to avr. pag nag work yung 5.1 then baka may issue yung coax port ng htpc.

after setting to coax1 press enter on your remote control, display should then be coax1*,i usally do this, hope it works for you.

nope.  hassle when i tried to do hdmi all the way. 
bukod sa stereo lang (na dapat 7.1), eh nawawala wala pa yung tunog every second 

hayz just bought hd 4650 ati, after reading stuff online my internal vga shouldve output hd audio already via hdmi ..  tapos eto while testing still getting stereo out of my new hd 4650   
i think i need to reinstall everything.  will post updates within the week 

sa pinagkahaba-haba ng nagawa ko.  hehehe napakadali lang pala ng solution, na upgrade ko tuloy ang keyboard and mouse dahil ibinalik ko ang ati 4650 

medyo basic, tinanong ko lang sarili ko.  ano ba talaga ang malaking kaibahan ng laptop ko at htpc ko.  ang sagot sa pagbabalik 



eto pics muna, maraming salamat sa mga sumagot at sumubaybay. 

bro tirso kamusta ang pagtatagalog ko? 


















mkv DD and DTS via HDMI   

[ment]

Update lang sa issue ko sa 608 ko sa previous page.  Naayos na ni Toyama ang 608 ko.  They replaced the HDMI board. 

The advice given to me was to avoid removing and reconnecting the HDMI cables while the receiver is on. 

Ingat lang while using your own AVRs.  I'm just happy that it was fixed faster than originally mentioned. 

Wow great news ..... Ganun dapat pag warranty claim .... Mabilis ang action ... Otherwise where is the sense of paying the extra premium...

And i will take note of your reminder ..thanks sir

planning to buy 508...


ano po maganda speakers?
2.1 muna set up, low budget pa po kasi..
inputs naman po..
thank you..

[Waxx]

need your worthy advice mga sirs...


ok ba itong upgrade over current onkyo 876??

magkano po 9.1?
san po meron?

[ninjababez®]

audition mo nalang muna yung mga available speakers.
pm avshop or vic.  pareho sila maraming avr and speakers for audition.

[docelmo]

Guys!
My 701 went on "silent" mode!
No audio output whatsoever, from my dvd,ps3 and wdtv all w/ different connections via optical. Even my turntable has no sound!? No sound also when i try to calibrate....what could be the problem?
Is there an onkyo service center?
Thanks!

Elmo

Try mo dalhin sa Toyama, West Ave. Sir

[simonzaide]

Was watching a movie a while ago after 15 mins my amp suddenly went to standby mode with the standby light flashing. Turned it on and it shut down after 5 mins same scenario

Any of you guys experienced this na

hi simon, anong model ng onkyo mo?
mainit ba yung receiver nung namatay?  
more or less 15 minutes lang sya nakabukas tapos ganun na?

[cianzepol]

ok po ba i pair yung 608 sa polk audio tsi series?

[ment]

^^^^ some find it ok .... other may find it too warm .....

best, as often said, is to audition .....






HAYZZZ!!!!! dumating na daw receiver ko ..... makukuha ko na daw either Monday or Tuesday sabik na sabik nako parang **x hahahaha

[simonzaide]

hi simon, anong model ng onkyo mo?
btw mainit ba yung receiver nung namatay? 
btw more or less 15 minutes lang sya nakabukas tapos ganun na?

Onkyo 606 sir. Di naman mainit usually airconditioned room sya when I watch first time nangyari yun sakin

[ninjababez®]

lumalabas parang fail safe yung nangyayaring shutdown nya?
btw is it on the avr side or speaker side?

[simonzaide]

SSpeaker side. Just finished the stress test okay naman
