[] CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

• Switching the input function when input jacks

are not connected

A clicking noise may be produced f the input

function is switched when _lOthi_lg is con_lected to

the input jacks If this happens r either turn do_vn the

MASTER VOLUME CO_ltrOlor connect compo_lents

to the input }acks

• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks

and SPEAKER terminals

The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE iacks and

SPEAKER termnals include a mutng crcuit

Because of this, the output signals are greatly

reduced for several seconds after the power switch

is turned on or i_lput function, surround mode or any

other-set-up is changed If the volume is turned up

during this time, the output will be very high after

the muting circuit stops functioning Always wait

until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the

volume

• Whenever the power switch is in the IL OFF

state, the apparatus is still connected on AC line

voltage.

Please be sure to unplug the cord when you

leave home for, say, a vacation.

[] FEATURES

1. Digital Surround Sound Decoding

Featuring 32 bit high speed DSP, operating entirely

in digital domain, surround sound from digital

sources such as DVD, LD, DTV and satellite are

faithfully re-created

2. Doiby Pro Logic I! decoder

Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing

multichannel audio signals that offers

improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic¸

It can be used to decode not only sources

recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo

sources into five channels (front left/right, center

and surround left/right) In addition, various

parameters can be set according to the type of

source and the contents, so you can adiust the

sound field with greater precision¸

3. Dolby Digital

Using advanced digital processing algorithms,

Dolby Digital provides up to 51 channels of wide_

range, high fidelity surround sound¸ Dolby Digital

is the default digital audio delivery system for

North American DVD and DTV

4. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

DTS provides up to 51 channels of wide-range,

high fidelity surround sound, from sources such as

laseE disc, DVD and specially_encoded music

discs¸

5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6

The AVR_802 is compatible with DTS_ES Extended

Surround, a new multFchannel format developed by

Digital Theater Systems Inc

The AVR-3802 is also compatible with DTS Neo:6, a

surround mode allowing 61-channel playback of

regular stereo sources

6. Wide screen mode for a ?.l-channel sound

even with

5.1-channel sources

DENON has developed a wide screen mode with

a new design which recreates the effects of the

multi surround speakers in movie theaters¸ The

result is 71 _channel sound taking full advantage of

surround back speakers, even with Dolby Pro

Logic or Dolby Digital/DTS 5 l_channel signals¸

?. 24 bit D/A Conversion

All six channels, including the five main channels

and the low frequency effects (LFE) channel

benefit from reference, for optimum high fidelity

reproduction of music and movie soundtracks

8. Dual Surround Speaker Mode

Provides for the first time the ability to optimize

surround sound reproduction using two different

types of surround sound speakers as well as two

different surround speaker positions:

(1) Movie Surround

Motion picture soundtracks use the surround

channel{sl to provide the ambient elements of

the acoustic environment they want the

audience to realize This is best accomplished

by the use of specially-designed surround

speakers that offeE a wide diffusion pattem

(bipolar dispersion) or by using surround

speakers that provide broad dispers on with a

mmEmum of on-axis localization (dipolar

dispersion) Side wall mounting (closer to the

ceiling) of the surround speakers provides the

greatest envelopment, minimizing Iocalizat on

of drect sound from the speakers

(2) Music Surround

With full range discrete surround cpannels, as

well as three discrete full range front channels,

digtal formats such as Do]by and DTS offer

thrilling surround sound music listening

Producers of mulLFchannel discrete dgital

music recordings almost always favor the use

of direct radiating (monopolar) surround

speakersr placed in the rear corners of the

room, snce that is how they configure their

studios during the mixing/creation process

The DENON AVR-3802 provides the ability to

connect two different sets of surround

speakers, and place them in the appropriate

locations in your AV theater room, so that you

can enjoy both movie soundtracks and music

listening, with optimum results and no

compromise

9. Component Video Switching

In addilion to composite video and "S r' video

swtching, the AVR_3802 provides 2 sets of

component video (Y, PB/C8, PR/CR) inputs for the

DVD and TV/DBS inputs, and one set of

component video outputs to the television, for

superior picture quality

10. Video Select Function

Allow you to watch one source (visual) while

listening to another source (audio)

11. Future Sound Format Upgrade Capability via

Eight ChanneI Inputs & Outputs

For future multi-chan_el audio format{sl, the AVR_

3802 is provided with 71 cham_el {seven main

channels, plus one low frequency effects channel)

inputs, along with a full set of 71 channel pre-amp

outpUtSr controlled by the 8 channel master

volume control This assures future upgrade

possibilites for any future mult-channel sound

format

[] CONNECTIONS

• Do not plug in the AC cord until all connections

have been completed

• Be sure to connect the left and right channels

properly (left with left, right with right)

• Insert the plugs securely Incomplete connect ons

win result in the generation of noise

• Use the AC OUTLET for audio equipment only,

Do not use them for hair driers, etc.

• Note that binding pin plug cords together with AC

cords or placing them near a power transformer

will result in generating hum or other noise

• Noise or humming may be generated if a

connected audio equipment is used independently

without turning the power of this unit on If this

happens, turn on the power of the this unit

• When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components

The power to this outlet is turned on and off when the power is switched between on and standby from the

• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers

making sure that like polarities are matched (_)

with _, O with O ) Mismatching of polarities will

resuk i+1weak central sound, U+lclear orientation of

the various i+lStruments, and the sense of direction

of the stereo being mpaired

• When making connections, take care that no+le of

the individual CO+ldUCtOrsof the speaker cord come

in contact with adjacent terminals, with other

speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel

NOTE:

NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the

Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Speaker Impedance

• Speakers with an impeda+lce of from 6 to 16

£2/uhms can be connected for use as front and

center speakers

• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 _)./ohms

can be connected for use as surround and surround

back speakers

• Be careful when using two pairs of surround

speakers (A + B) at the same time, snce use of

speakers with an impedance of less than 8 £_/ohms

will lead to damage

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is

played for long periods of time at high volumes

when speakers with an impedance lower than the

specified impedance are connected

• If another pre-main (integrated) amplifier or power amplifier is connectedr the multi-source jacks can be used

to play a different program source in another room at the same time

• This unit s equipped with a high-speed protectio+l circuit The purpose of this circuit is to protect the

speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently shor_-

circuited and a large current flOWSr when the temperature surround ng the unit becomes unusually high, or

when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise

When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED

flashes Should this occur, please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check

whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to

cool down if t s very hot Improve the ventilation cond tion around the unit and switch the power back on

If the protection circuit is activated again even though theEe are no problems with the wiring or the

vent ]ation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for Io+lg periods of time at high volumes when

speakers with an impedance IoweE than the specified mpedance {for example speakers with an

impedance of IoweE than 4 _/ohms) are connected If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output

is cut off Turn off the set's power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set,

then turn the power back on

NOTES:

-- Assignment of low frequency signal range --

• The only sig_lals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or

DTS signals) and the low frequency signal range of channels set to "Small" in the setup menu The low

frequency signal range of channels set to "Large" are produced from those channels

-- Crossover Frequency --

• When r'Subwoofer" S set to "Yes" at the "Speaker Configuration Setting"r set the frequency (Hz) below

which the bass sound of the various speakers is to be output from the subwoofer (the crossover

frequency)

• For speakers set to "Smallr', sound with a frequency below the crossover frequency is cut, and the cut bass

sound is output from the subwoofer instead

NOTE: For ordinary speaker systemSr we recommend setting the crossover frequency to 80 Hz When

using small speakers, however, setting the crossovel frequency to a high frequency may improve

frequency response for frequencies near tile crossover frequency

-- Subwoofer mode --

• The subwoofer nlode setting is only valid when "Large" is set for the frollt speakers and "Y_s" is set for

the subwoofer in the "Speaker Configuration" settings (see page 10)

• When the r'LFE+MAIN" playback mode is selected, the low freque_lcy signal range of cha_lnels set to

"Large" are produced simultaneously from those cha_mels and the subwoofer channel

I_ this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more u_iformly through the room, but depend ng

on the sze and shape of the room, interfere_ce may result n a decrease of the actual volume of the low

frequency range

• Selection of the "LFE r, play mode will play the low frequency sgnal range of the cha_lnel selected with
