CAUTIONS ON HANDLING
• Switching the input function when input jacks are not connected
A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either turn down the
MASTER VOLUME control or connect components to the input jacks.
until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.
• Whenever the power switch is in the £ 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.
• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks and SPEAKER terminals
The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks and
SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit.
Because of this, the output signals are greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is turned on or input 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

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. Dolby Pro Logic II 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 adjust the sound field with greater precision.
3. Dolby Digital
Using advanced digital processing algorithms,
Dolby Digital provides up to 5.1 channels of widerange, 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 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and specially-encoded music discs.
5. DTS-ES Extended Surround and DTS Neo:6
The AVR-3802 is compatible with DTS-ES Extended
Surround, a new multi-channel format developed by
Digital Theater Systems Inc.
The AVR-3802 is also compatible with DTS Neo:6, a surround mode allowing 6.1-channel playback of regular stereo sources.
6. Wide screen mode for a 7.1-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 7.1-channel sound taking full advantage of surround back speakers, even with Dolby Pro
Logic or Dolby Digital/DTS 5.1-channel signals.
7. 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(s) 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 offer a wide diffusion pattern
(bipolar dispersion) or by using surround speakers that provide broad dispersion with a minimum of on-axis localization (dipolar dispersion). Side wall mounting (closer to the ceiling) of the surround speakers provides the greatest envelopment, minimizing localization of direct sound from the speakers.
(2) Music Surround
With full range discrete surround channels, as well as three discrete full range front channels, digital formats such as Dolby and DTS offer thrilling surround sound music listening.
Producers of multi-channel discrete digital music recordings almost always favor the use of direct radiating (monopolar) surround speakers, placed in the rear corners of the room, since 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 addition to composite video and “S” video switching, the AVR-3802 provides 2 sets of component video (Y, P
B
/C
B
, P
R
/C
R
) 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 Channel Inputs & Outputs
For future multi-channel audio format(s), the AVR-
3802 is provided with 7.1 channel (seven main channels, plus one low frequency effects channel) inputs, along with a full set of 7.1 channel pre-amp outputs, controlled by the 8 channel master volume control. This assures future upgrade possibilities for any future multi-channel sound format.

Connecting the external input (EXT. IN) jacks
• These jacks are for inputting multi-channel audio signals from an outboard decoder, or a component with a different type of multi-channel decoder, such as a DVD Audio player, or a multi-channel SACD player, or other future multi-channel sound format decoder.
• When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.

Speaker system connections
• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like polarities are matched ( < with < , > with > ). Mismatching of polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired.
• When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors of 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 power is on.
Doing so could result in electric shocks.
Speaker Impedance
• Speakers with an impedance of from 6 to 16
Ω
/ohms can be connected for use as front and center speakers.
• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16
Ω
/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, since use of speakers with an impedance of less than 8
Ω
/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.
Connecting the speaker cords
1. Loosen by turning counterclockwise.
2. Insert the cord.
3. Tighten by turning clockwise.

Protector circuit
• This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently shortcircuited and a large current flows, when the temperature surrounding 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 it is very hot. Improve the ventilation condition around the unit and switch the power back on.
If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.
Note on speaker impedance
• 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 (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4
Ω
/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.
For instructions on operations using the MULTI ZONE jacks, see pages 25, 26.

NOTES:
• The on-screen display signals are not output from the color difference (component) video signal
(MONITOR OUT) jacks.
• The on-screen display signals are output with priority to the S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack during playback of a video component. For example, if the TV monitor is connected to both the AVR-3802’s S-Video and video monitor output jacks and signals are input to the AVR-3802 from a video source (VDP, etc.) connected to both the S-Video and video input jacks, the on-screen display signals are output with priority to the S-
Video monitor output. If you wish to output the signals to the video monitor output jack, do not connect a cord to the S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack. (For details, see page 16.)
• The AVR-3802’s on-screen display function is designed for use with high resolution monitor TVs, so it may be difficult to read small characters on TVs with small screens or low resolutions.
• The setup menu is not displayed when “HEADPHONE ONLY” is selected.

NOTE:
• Select “Large” or “Small” not according to the actual size of the speaker but according to the speaker’s capacity for playing low frequency (bass sound below frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode and below) signals. If you do not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting the volume to a level low enough so as not to damage the speakers) to determine the proper setting.
• Parameters
Large.................Select this when using speakers that have sufficient performance for reproducing bass sound below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode.
Small .................Select this when using speakers that do not have sufficient performance for reproducing bass sound below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode. When this is set, bass sound with a frequency below the frequency set for the Crossover Frequency mode is sent to the subwoofer.
When this setting is selected, low frequencies of below the frequency set for the Crossover
Frequency mode are assigned to the subwoofer.
None…… ..........Select this when no speakers are installed.
Yes/No… ...........Select “Yes” when a subwoofer is installed, “No” when a subwoofer is not installed.

If the subwoofer has sufficient low frequency playback capacity, good sound can be achieved even when

NOTES:
— Assignment of low frequency signal range —
• The only signals 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 “Subwoofer” is set to “Yes” at the “Speaker Configuration Setting”, 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 “Small”, 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 systems, we recommend setting the crossover frequency to 80 Hz. When using small speakers, however, setting the crossover frequency to a high frequency may improve frequency response for frequencies near the crossover frequency.
— Subwoofer mode —
• The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when “Large” is set for the front speakers and “Yes” is set for the subwoofer in the “Speaker Configuration” settings (see page 10).
• When the “LFE+MAIN” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to
“Large” are produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel.
In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.
• Selection of the “LFE ” play mode will play the low frequency signal range of the channel selected with
“Large” from that channel only. Therefore, the low frequency signal range that are played from the subwoofer channel are only the low frequency signal range of LFE (only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal playback) and the channel specified as “Small” in the setup menu.
• Select the play mode that provides bass reproduction with body.
• When the subwoofer is set to “Yes”, bass sound is output from the subwoofer regardless of the subwoofer mode setting in surround modes other than Dolby/DTS.

The test tones are emitted from the different speakers in the following order, at 4-second intervals the first time and second time around, 2-second intervals the third time around and on:
Flashing
FL C FR SR
1spkr
SB
SBR
2spkrs
SBL SL SW
When the surround back speaker setting is set to
“1spkr” for “Speaker Configuration”, this is set to “SB”.
Example: When the volume is set to
–12 dB while the test tone is being produced from the subwoofer
Use the CURSOR buttons to adjust all the speakers to the same volume.
The volume can be adjusted between –12 dB and +12 dB in units of 1 dB.
b. When the “Manual” mode is selected
Use the CURSOR left and right to select the speaker for which you want to output test tones, then use the
CURSOR up and down to adjust so that the volume of the test tones from the various speakers is the same.

After the above settings are completed, press the ENTER button.
The “Channel Level” screen reappears.
To cancel the settings, select “Level Clear” and “Yes” on the “Channel Level” screen, then make the settings again.
The level of each channel should be adjusted to 75 dB (C-weighted, slow meter mode) on a sound level meter at the listening position.
If a sound level meter is not available adjust the channels by ear so the sound levels are the same. Because adjusting the subwoofer level test tone by ear is difficult, use a well known music selection and adjust for natural balance.
NOTE: When adjusting the level of an active subwoofer system, you may also need to adjust the subwoofer’s own volume control.
When you adjust the channel levels while in the SYSTEM SETUP CHANNEL LEVEL mode, the channel level adjustments made will affect ALL surround modes. Consider this mode a Master Channel Level adjustment mode.
After you have completed the SYSTEM SETUP CHANNEL LEVEL adjustments, you can then activate the individual surround modes and adjust channel levels that will be remembered for each of those modes.
Then, whenever you activate a particular surround sound mode, your preferred channel level adjustments for just that mode will be recalled. Check the instructions for adjusting channel levels within each surround mode on page 27.
You can adjust the channel levels for each of the following surround modes: DIRECT, STEREO, 5/7 CH
STEREO, DOLBY/DTS SURROUND, WIDE SCREEN, ROCK ARENA, JAZZ CLUB, VIDEO GAME, MONO
MOVIE, and MATRIX.
When using either surround speakers A or B, or when using surround speakers A and B at the same time, be sure to adjust the balance of playback levels between each channel for the various selections of “A or B” and “A and B”.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
• The included remote control unit (RC-884) can be used to operate not only the AVR-3802 but other remote control compatible DENON components as well. In addition, the memory contains the control signals for other remote control units, so it can be used to operate non-Denon remote control compatible products.
Inserting the batteries
q Remove the remote control unit’s rear cover.
w Set three R6P/AA batteries in the battery compartment in the indicated direction.
e Put the rear cover back on.
Notes on Batteries
• Use R6P/AA batteries in the remote control unit.
• The batteries should be replaced with new ones approximately once a year, though this depends on the frequency of usage.
• Even if less than a year has passed, replace the batteries with new ones if the set does not operate even when the remote control unit is operated nearby the set. (The included battery is only for verifying operation. Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.)
• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the proper direction, following the “ ≈” and “√” marks in the battery compartment.
• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:
• Do not use a new battery together with an old one.
• Do not use two different types of batteries.
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in flames.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit when you do not plan to use it for an extended period of time.
• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe the fluid off the inside of the battery compartment and insert new batteries.
• When replacing the batteries, have the new batteries ready and insert them as quickly as possible.
Using the remote control unit
B
Approx. 7 m
30°
30°
• Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor on the main unit as shown on the diagram.
• The remote control unit can be used from a straight distance of approximately 7 meters from the main unit, but this distance will be shorter if there are obstacles in the way or if the remote control unit is not pointed directly at the remote sensor.
• The remote control unit can be operated at a horizontal angle of up to 30 degrees with respect to the remote sensor.
NOTES:
• It may be difficult to operate the remote control unit if the remote sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial light.
• Do not press buttons on the main unit and remote control unit simultaneously. Doing so may result in malfunction.
• Neon signs or other devices emitting pulse-type noise nearby may result in malfunction, so keep the set as far away from such devices as possible.

This function can be used for example to turn on the amplifier’s power, select the input source, turn on the monitor TV’s power, turn on the source component’s power and set the source to the play mode, all at the touch of a button.
(1) System call buttons
The buttons that can be used for the system call function are shown on the diagram at the right.
System call signals can be stored at different buttons according to the mode. System call signals can be stored at a maximum of 6 buttons other than the CALL 1 and CALL 2 buttons.
29 successive operations can be set at each of these buttons.

In this mode, the types of signals being input to the digital and analog input jacks for the selected input source are detected and the program in the AVR-
3802’s surround decoder is selected automatically upon playback. This mode can be selected for all input sources other than PHONO and TUNER.
The presence or absence of digital signals is detected, the signals input to the digital input jacks are identified and decoding and playback are performed automatically in DTS, Dolby Digital or PCM (2 channel stereo) format. If no digital signal is being input, the analog input jacks are selected.
Use this mode to play Dolby Digital signals.
w PCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode)
Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM signals are being input.
Note that noise may be generated when using this mode to play signals other than PCM signals.
e DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback mode)
Decoding and playback are only performed when DTS signals are being input.
r ANALOG (exclusive analog audio signal playback mode)
The signals input to the analog input jacks are decoded and played.
t EXT. IN (external decoder input jack selection mode)
The signals being input to the external decoder input jacks are played without passing through the surround circuitry.
NOTE:
• Note that noise will be output when CDs or LDs recorded in DTS format are played in the “PCM”

2 Dialogue Normalization
The dialogue normalization function is activated automatically when playing Dolby Digital program sources.
Dialogue normalization is a basic function of Dolby Digital which automatically normalizes the dialog level
(standard level) of the signals which are recorded at different levels for different program sources, such as DVD,
DTV and other future formats that will use Dolby Digital.
These contents can be verified with the STATUS button.
OFFSET - 4dB
The number indicates the normalization level when the currently playing program is normalized to the standard level.
NOTE: When “Default” is selected and the F cursor button is pressed, “CINEMA EQ.” and “D.COMP.” are automatically turned off, “LFE” is reset, and the tone is set to the default value.
Surround parameters w
CINEMA EQ. (Cinema Equalizer):
The Cinema EQ function gently decreases the level of the extreme high frequencies, compensating for overly-bright sounding motion picture soundtracks. Select this function if the sound from the front speakers is too bright.
This function only works in the Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital, DTS Surround and WIDE SCREEN modes. (The same contents are set for all operating modes.)
D.COMP. (Dynamic Range Compression):
Motion picture soundtracks have tremendous dynamic range (the contrast between very soft and very loud sounds). For listening late at night, or whenever the maximum sound level is lower than usual, the Dynamic
Range Compression allows you to hear all of the sounds in the soundtrack (but with reduced dynamic range).
(This only works when playing program sources recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS.) Select one of the four parameters (“OFF”, “LOW”, “MID” (middle) or “HI” (high)). Set to OFF for normal listening.
LFE (Low Frequency Effect):
This sets the level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effect) sounds included in the source when playing program sources recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS.
If the sound produced from the subwoofer sounds distorted due to the LFE signals when playing Dolby Digital or DTS sources when the peak limiter is turned off with the subwoofer peak limit level setting (system setup menu), adjust the level as necessary.
Program source and adjustment range:
1. Dolby Digital: –10 dB to 0 dB
2. DTS Surround: –10 dB to 0 dB
When DTS encoded movie software is played, it is recommended that the LFE LEVEL be set to
0 dB for correct DTS playback.
When DTS encoded music software is played, it is recommended that the LFE LEVEL be set to
–10 dB for correct DTS playback.
TONE:
This adjusts the tone control. (See “Surround parameters e” on page 32.)
AFDM (Auto Flag Detect Mode):
Turns the auto flag detect mode on and off.
For 5-channel Dolby Digital/DTS sources:
The surround back channel play mode can be selected when the AFDM (Auto Flag Detect Mode) is set to
“OFF”. The parameters that can be selected are the same as the “Non-Flag Source SBch Output” settings.
When the AFDM (Auto Flag Detect Mode) is set to “ON”, the setting selected at “Non-Flag Source SBch
Output” are displayed. (See page 12.)
If you wish to change the setting, set the AFDM (Auto Flag Detect Mode) to “OFF”.
SB CH OUT (6.1/7.1 Surround):
(1) Dolby Digital/DTS source
“OFF” ......................Playback is conducted without using the surround back speaker.
“NON MTRX” ..........Playback is conducted using the surround back speaker.
The same signals those of the surround channels are output from the surround back channels.
“MTRX ON”.............Playback is conducted using the surround back speaker.
Surround back chnnel is reproduced using digital matrix processing.
(2) Other source
“OFF” ......................Playback is conducted without using the surround back speaker.
“ON”........................Playback is conducted using the surround back speaker.
NOTE: This operation can be performed directly using the “6.1/7.1 Surround” button on the main unit’s panel.

DSP SURROUND SIMULATION
• The AVR-3802 is equipped with a high performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) which uses digital signal processing to synthetically recreate the sound field. One of seven preset surround modes can be selected according to the program source and the parameters can be adjusted according to the conditions in the listening room to achieve a more realistic, powerful sound. These surround modes can also be used for program sources not recorded in Dolby Surround Pro Logic or Dolby Digital.
Surround modes and their features
1 WIDE SCREEN
2 ROCK ARENA
3 JAZZ CLUB
Select this to achieve an atmosphere like that of a movie theater with a large screen. In this mode, all signal sources are played in the 7.1-channel mode, including Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby
Digital 5.1-channel sources. Effects simulating the multi surround speakers of movie theaters are added to the surround channels.
Use this mode to achieve the feeling of a live concert in an arena with reflected sounds coming from all directions.
This mode creates the sound field of a live house with a low ceiling and hard walls. This mode gives jazz a very vivid realism.
4 VIDEO GAME Use this to enjoy video game sources.
5 MATRIX
Select this to emphasize the sense of expansion for music sources recorded in stereo. Signals consisting of the difference component of the input signals (the component that provides the sense of expansion) processed for delay are output from the surround channel.
6
7
MONO MOVIE
(NOTE 1)
Select this when watching monaural movies for a greater sense of expansion.
5CH/7CH STEREO
In this mode, the signals of the front left channel are output from the left surround channel, the signals of the front right channel are output from the right surround channel, and the same (inphase) component of the left and right channels is output from the center channel. This mode provides all speaker surround sound, but without directional steering effects, and works with any stereo program source.
Depending on the program source being played, the effect may not be very noticeable.
In this case, try other surround modes, without worrying about their names, to create a sound field suited to your tastes.
NOTE 1: When playing sources recorded in monaural, the sound will be one-sided if signals are only input to one channel (left or right), so input signals to both channels. If you have a source component with only one audio output (monophonic camcorder, etc.) obtain a “Y” adaptor cable to split the mono output to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.
NOTE:
Only the DIRECT and 5CH/7CH STEREO modes can be used when playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz (such as from DVD-Video discs that contain 24 bit, 96 kHz audio). If such signals are input during playback in one of the other surround modes, the mode automatically switches to DIRECT.

Surround parameters e
MODE: (DTS NEO:6)
• Cinema
This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding is performed with emphasis on separation performance to achieve the same atmosphere with 2-channel sources as with 6.1-channel sources.
This mode is effective for playing sources recorded in conventional surround formats as well, because the in-phase component is assigned mainly to the center channel (C) and the reversed phase component to the surround (SL, SR and SB channels).
• Music
This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The front channel (FL and FR) signals bypass the decoder and are played directly so there is no loss of sound quality, and the effect of the surround signals output from the center (C) and surround (SL, SR and SB) channels add a natural sense of expansion to the sound field.
ROOM SIZE:
This sets the size of the sound field.
There are five settings: “small”, “med.s” (medium-small), “medium”, “med.l” (medium-large) and “large”.
“small” recreates a small sound field, “large” a large sound field.
EFFECT LEVEL:
This sets the strength of the surround effect.
The level can be set in 15 steps from 1 to 15. Lower the level if the sound seems distorted.
DELAY TIME:
In the matrix mode only, the delay time can be set within the range of 0 to 300 ms.
TONE CONTROL:
This can be set individually for the separate surround modes other than Direct.
However, the same contents are set for DOLBY/DTS modes.

The AVR-3802’s surround speaker selection function makes it possible to change the settings according to the combination of surround speakers being used and the surrounding environment in order to achieve the ideal surround sound for all sources. This means that you can connect a pair of bipolar or dipolar surround speakers
(mounted on either side of the prime listening position), as well as a separate pair of direct radiating
(monopolar) speakers placed at the rear corners of the listening room.
16
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Optimum surround sound for different sources
There are currently various types of multi-channel signals (signals or formats with more than two channels).
2 Types of multi-channel signals
Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS, high definition 3-1 signals (Japan MUSE Hi-Vision audio), DVD-Audio,
SACD (Super Audio CD), MPEG multi-channel audio, etc.
“Source” here does not refer to the type of signal (format) but the recorded content. Sources can be divided into two major categories.
Types of sources
• Movie audio Signals created to be played in movie theaters. In general sound is recorded to be played in movie theaters equipped with multiple surround speakers, regardless of the format (Dolby
Digital, DTS, etc.).
SL
Movie theater sound field
FL
SW
C FR
SR
Listening room sound field
FL SW C FR
SL SR
SB
In this case it is important to achieve the same sense of expansion as in a movie theater with the surround channels.
To do so, in some cases the number of surround speakers is increased (to four or eight) or speakers with bipolar or dipolar properties are used.
SL: Surround L channel
SR: Surround R channel
SB: Surround back channel SB
Multiple surround speakers
(For 6.1-channel system)
• Other types of audio These signals are designed to recreate a 360° sound field using three to five speakers.
FL SW C FR
In this case the speakers should surround the listener from all sides to create a uniform sound field from 360°. Ideally the surround speakers should function as “point” sound sources in the same way as the front speakers.
SL SR
These two types of sources thus have different properties, and different speaker settings, particularly for the surround speakers, are required in order to achieve the ideal sound.
Surround back speakers
A 6.1-channel system is a conventional 5.1-channel system to which the “surround back” (SB) channel has been added. This makes it easy to achieve sound positioned directly behind the listener, something that was previously difficult with sources designed for conventional multi surround speakers. In addition, the acoustic image extending between the sides and the rear is narrowed, thus greatly improving the expression of the surround signals for sounds moving from the sides to the back and from the front to the point directly behind the listening position.

With this set, speaker(s) for 1 or 2 channels are required to achieve a 6.1-channel system (DTS-ES, etc.). Adding these speakers, however, increases the surround effect not only with sources recorded in 6.1 channels but also with conventional 2- to 5.1-channel sources. The WIDE SCREEN mode is a mode for achieving surround sound with up to 7.1 channels using surround back speakers, for sources recorded in conventional Dolby Surround as well as Dolby Digital 5.1-channel and DTS Surround 5.1-channel sources. Furthermore, all the Denon original surround modes (see page 30) are compatible with 7.1-channel playback, so you can enjoy 7.1-channel sound with any signal source.
2 Number of surround back speakers
Though the surround back channel only consists of 1 channel of playback signals for 6.1-channel sources
(DTS-ES, etc.), we recommend using two speakers. When using speakers with dipolar characteristics in particular, it is essential to use two speakers.
Using two speakers results in a smoother blend with the sound of the surround channels and better sound positioning of the surround back channel when listening from a position other than the center.
2 Placement of the surround left and right channels when using surround back speakers
Using surround back speakers greatly improves the positioning of the sound at the rear. Because of this, the surround left and right channels play an important role in achieving a smooth transition of the acoustic image from the front to the back. As shown on the diagram above, in a movie theater the surround signals are also produced from diagonally in front of the listeners, creating an acoustic image as if the sound were floating in space.
To achieve these effects, we recommend placing the speakers for the surround left and right channels slightly more towards the front than with conventional surround systems. Doing so sometimes increases the surround effect when playing conventional 5.1-channel sources in the 6.1 surround or DTS-ES Matrix 6.1
mode. Check the surround effects of the various modes before selecting the surround mode.

Speaker setting examples
Here we describe a number of speaker settings for different purposes. Use these examples as guides to set up your system according to the type of speakers used and the main usage purpose.

• Consult the owner’s manual for your subwoofer for advice on placing the
As seen from the side subwoofer within the listening room.
• If the surround speakers are direct-radiating (monopolar) then place them slightly behind and at an angle to the listening position and parallel to the walls at a position 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above ear level at the prime listening position.
• When using two surround back speakers, place them at the back facing the front at a narrower distance than the front left and right speakers. When using one surround back speaker, place it at the rear center facing the front at a slightly higher position (0 to 20 cm) than the surround speakers.
• We recommend installing the surround back speaker(s) at a slightly downward facing angle. This effectively prevents the surround back channel signals from reflecting off the monitor or screen at the front center, resulting in interference and making the sense of movement from the front to the back less sharp.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3802 and set all settings on the setup menu to “A”. (This is the factory default setting. For details, see page 9.)
(2) Setting for primarily watching movies using diffusion type speakers for the surround speakers
For the greatest sense of surround sound envelopment, diffuse radiation speakers such as bipolar types, or dipolar types, provide a wider dispersion than is possible to obtain from a direct radiating speaker (monopolar). Place these speakers at either side of the prime listening position, mounted above ear level.

Using dipolar speakers for the surround back speakers as well is more effective.
• Connect the surround speakers to the surround speaker A jacks on the AVR-
3802 and set all settings on the setup menu to “A”. (This is the factory default setting. For details, see page 9.)
• The signals from the surround channels reflect off the walls as shown on the diagram at the left, creating an enveloping and realistic surround sound presentation.
For multi-channel music sources however, the use of bipolar or dipolar speakers mounted at the sides of the listening position may not be satifactory in order to create a coherent 360 degree surround sound field.
Connect another pair of direct radiating speakers as described in example (3) and place them at the rear corners of the room facing towards the prime listening position.
(3) When using different surround speakers for movies and music
To achieve more effective surround sound for both movies and music, use different sets of surround speakers and different surround modes for the two types of sources.

Surround
The AVR-3802 is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to achieve the same sense of presence as in a movie theater.
Dolby Surround
(1) Dolby Digital (Dolby Surround AC-3)
Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories.
Dolby Digital consists of up to “5.1” channels - front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right, and an additional channel exclusively reserved for additional deep bass sound effects (the Low Frequency
Effects – LFE – channel, also called the “.1” channel, containing bass frequencies of up to 120 Hz).
Unlike the analog Dolby Pro Logic format, Dolby Digital’s main channels can all contain full range sound information, from the lowest bass, up to the highest frequencies – 22 kHz. The signals within each channel are distinct from the others, allowing pinpoint sound imaging, and Dolby Digital offers tremendous dynamic range from the most powerful sound effects to the quietest, softest sounds, free from noise and distortion.

2 Some DVD digital outputs have the function of switching the Dolby Digital signal output method between “bit stream” and “(convert to) PCM”. When playing in Dolby Digital surround on the AVR-
3802, switch the DVD player’s output mode to “bit stream”. In some cases players are equipped with both “bit stream + PCM” and “PCM only” digital outputs. In this case connect the “bit stream + PCM” jacks to the AVR-3802.
(2) Dolby Pro Logic II
• Dolby Pro-Logic II is a new multi-channel playback format developed by Dolby Laboratories using feedback logic steering technology and offering improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic circuits.
• Dolby Pro Logic II can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround ( ) but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front left, front right, center, surround left and surround right) to achieve surround sound.
• Whereas with conventional Dolby Pro Logic the surround channel playback frequency band was limited,
Dolby Pro Logic II offers a wider band range (20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater). In addition, the surround channels were monaural (the surround left and right channels were the same) with previous Dolby Pro
Logic, but Dolby Pro Logic II they are played as stereo signals.
• Various parameters can be set according to the type of source and the contents, so it is possible to achieve optimum decoding (see page 27).
Sources recorded in Dolby Surround
These are sources in which three or more channels of surround have been recorded as two channels of signals using Dolby Surround encoding technology.
Dolby Surround is used for the sound tracks of movies recorded on DVDs, LDs and video cassettes to be played on stereo VCRs, as well as for the stereo broadcast signals of FM radio, TV, satellite broadcasts and cable TV.
Decoding these signals with Dolby Pro Logic makes it possible to achieve multi-channel surround playback. The signals can also be played on ordinary stereo equipment, in which case they provide normal stereo sound.
There are two types of DVD Dolby surround recording signals.
q 2-channel PCM stereo signals w 2-channel Dolby Digital signals
When either of these signals is input to the AVR-3802, the surround mode is automatically set to Dolby
Pro Logic II when the “DOLBY/DTS SURROUND” mode is selected.

ENGLISH
DTS Digital Surround
Digital Theater Surround (also called simply DTS) is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital
Theater Systems.
DTS offers the same “5.1” playback channels as Dolby Digital (front left, front right and center, surround left and surround right) as well as the stereo 2-channel mode. The signals for the different channels are fully independent, eliminating the risk of deterioration of sound quality due to interference between signals, crosstalk, etc.
DTS features a relatively higher bit rate as compared to Dolby Digital (1234 kbps for CDs and LDs, 1536 kbps for
DVDs) so it operates with a relatively low compression rate. Because of this the amount of data is great, and when DTS playback is used in movie theaters, a separate CD-ROM synchronized with the film is played.
With LDs and DVDs, there is of course no need for an extra disc; the pictures and sound can be recorded simultaneously on the same disc, so the discs can be handled in the same way as discs with other formats.
There are also music CDs recorded in DTS. These CDs include 5.1-channel surround signals (compared to two channels on current CDs). They do not include picture data, but they offer surround playback on CD players that are equipped with digital outputs (PCM type digital output required).
DTS surround track playback offers the same intricate, grand sound as in a movie theater, right in your own listening room.

1 DTS signals are recorded in the same way on CDs and LDs as PCM signals. Because of this, the undecoded DTS signals are output as random “hissy” noise from the CD or LD player’s analog outputs. If this noise is played with the amplifier set at a very high volume, it may possibly cause damage to the speakers. To avoid this, be sure to switch the input mode to “AUTO” or “DTS” before playing CDs or LDs recorded in DTS. Also, never switch the input mode to “ANALOG” or “PCM” during playback. The same holds true when playing CDs or LDs on a DVD player or LD/DVD compatible player. For DVDs, the DTS signals are recorded in a special way so this problem does not occur.
2 The signals provided at the digital outputs of a CD or LD player may undergo some sort of internal signal processing (output level adjustment, sampling frequency conversion, etc.). In this case the DTS-encoded signals may be processed erroneously, in which case they cannot be decoded by the AVR-3802, or may only produce noise. Before playing DTS signals for the first time, turn down the master volume to a low level, start playing the DTS disc, then check whether the DTS indicator on the AVR-3802 (see page 29) lights before turning up the master volume.
3 A DVD player with DTS-compatible digital output is required to play DTS DVDs. A DTS Digital Output logo is featured on the front panel of compatible DVD players. Recent DENON DVD player models feature DTScompatible digital output – consult the player’s owner’s manual for information on configuring the digital output for DTS playback of DTS-encoded DVDs.

DTS-ES Extended Surround
TM
DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems
Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended
Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999.
In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the
SB (Surround Back, sometimes also referred to as “surround center”) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as described below.
2 DTS-ES
TM
Discrete 6.1
DTS-ESTM Discrete 6.1 is the newest recording format. With it, all 6.1 channels (including the SB channel) are recorded independently using a digital discrete system. The main feature of this format is that because the SL, SR and SB channels are fully independent, the sound can be designed with total freedom and it is possible to achieve a sense that the acoustic images are moving about freely among the background sounds surrounding the listener from 360 degrees.
Though maximum performance is achieved when sound tracks recorded with this system are played using a DTS-ES decoder, when played with a conventional DTS decoder the SB channel signals are automatically down-mixed to the SL and SR channels, so none of the signal components are lost.
2 DTS-ES
TM
Matrix 6.1
With this format, the additional SB channel signals undergo matrix encoding and are input to the SL and SR channels beforehand. Upon playback they are decoded to the SL, SR and SB channels. The performance of the encoder used at the time of recording can be fully matched using a high precision digital matrix decoder developed by DTS, thereby achieving surround sound more faithful to the producer’s sound design aims than with conventional 5.1- or 6.1-channel systems.
In addition, the bit stream format is 100% compatible with conventional DTS signals, so the effect of the
Matrix 6.1 format can be achieved even with 5.1-channel signal sources. Of course it is also possible to play
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 encoded sources with a DTS 5.1-channel decoder.
When DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 or Matrix 6.1 encoded sources are decoded with a DTS-ES decoder, the format is automatically detected upon decoding and the optimum playing mode is selected. However, some Matrix
6.1 sources may be detected as having a 5.1-channel format, so the DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 mode must be set manually to play these sources.
(For instructions on selecting the surround mode, see page 30.)
The DTS-ES decoder includes another function, the DTS Neo:6 surround mode for 6.1-channel playback of digital PCM and analog signal sources.
2 DTS Neo:6
TM surround
This mode applies conventional 2-channel signals to the high precision digital matrix decoder used for DTS-
ES Matrix 6.1 to achieve 6.1-channel surround playback. High precision input signal detection and matrix processing enable full band reproduction (frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) for all 6.1
channels, and separation between the different channels is improved to the same level as that of a digital discrete system.
DTS Neo:6 surround includes two modes for selecting the optimum decoding for the signal source.
• DTS Neo:6 Cinema
This mode is optimum for playing movies. Decoding is performed with emphasis on separation performance to achieve the same atmosphere with 2-channel sources as with 6.1-channel sources.
This mode is effective for playing sources recorded in conventional surround formats as well, because the in-phase component is assigned mainly to the center channel (C) and the reversed phase component to the surround (SL, SR and SB channels).
• DTS Neo:6 Music
This mode is suited mainly for playing music. The front channel (FL and FR) signals bypass the decoder and are played directly so there is no loss of sound quality, and the effect of the surround signals output from the center (C) and surround (SL, SR and SB) channels add a natural sense of expansion to the sound field.
