2 CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION
Noise or disturbance of the picture may be generated if this unit or
any other electronic equipment using microprocessors is used near a
tuner or TV.
If this happens, take the following steps:
• Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV.
• Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit’s
power cord and input/output connection cords.
• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor
antennas or 300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using
outdoor antennas and 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cables.
For heat dispersal, leave at least 0.3 ft (10 cm) of space between
the top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other

3 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.

• Whenever the unit is in the STANDBY state, the apparatus is
still connected on AC line voltage.
Please be sure to turn the power off (£ off) when you leave
home for, say, a vacation.

• Muting of PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER
terminals
The PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals
include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are
greatly reduced for several seconds after the power operation
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 until
the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

operating instructions included with the TV or other component.
MONITOR OUT jacks
The AVR-1705/685 is equpped with a function for up-converting video signals.
Because of this, the AVR-1705/685’s MONITOR OUT jack can be connected to
the monitor (TV) with a set of cables offering a higher quality connection,
regardless of how the player and the AVR-1705/685’s video input jacks are
connected.
Generally speaking, connections using the component video jacks offer te
highest quality playback, followed by connections using the S-Video jacks, then
connections using regular video jacks (yellow).
NOTE:
Down-converting from the component video signal to the S-Video and
composite video signal is not possible, so when not using the component video
monitor output terminal connect the player using the S-Video or composite
video input terminal.

The Video Conversion Function
With the AVR-1705/685, the Video signal and the S-video
signal which were inputted are converted mutually. And also
the Video signal and the S-Video signal which were inputted
are converted into a higher quality.
This unit’s input jacks

The flow of the
this unit’s internal
signals.

Cautions on the video conversion function:
When the component video terminals are used to connect the AVR-1705/685
with a TV (or monitor, projector, etc.) and the video (yellow) or S-Video terminals
are used to connect the AVR-1705/685 with a VTR, depending on the
combination of the TV and VTR the picture may flicker in the horizontal direction,
be distorted, be out of sync not display at all when playing video tapes.
If this happens, connect a commercially available video stabilizer, etc., with a
TBC (time base corrector) function between the AVR-1705/685 and the VTR, or
if your VTR has a TBC function, turn it on.

Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC which provides guidelines
for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
NOTES:
• Do not connect two FM antennas simultaneously.
• Even if an external AM antenna is used, do not disconnect the
AM loop antenna.
• Make sure AM loop antenna lead terminals do not touch metal
parts of the panel.

ENGLISH

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
• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with
an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as front
speakers.
• Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the
same time, since use of speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16
Ω/ohms.
• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected
for use as center and surround and surround back speakers.
• 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.

ENGLISH

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 short-circuited 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.

NOTES:
— Assignment of low frequency signal range —
• The 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. 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 pages 19, 20).
If “SMALL” is set for the front speakers or “NO” is set for the subwoofer, the subwoofer mode setting does not affect playback of low
frequency signal range.
• When the “+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.
• When the “NORM” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are only produced from
those channels. In this playback mode there tends to be little interference of the low frequency range in the room.
• Try playing the music or movie source and select the playback mode providing the stronger low frequency range sound.

23

ENGLISH

Setting the Test Tone
• Use this setting to adjust to that the playback level between the different channel is equal.

Note:
When a subwoofer has been connected and the virtual surround function is being used, the signal played from the subwoofer channel is
LFE only (only when playing Dolby Digital or DTS signals) for initial factory settings (i.e., the setting of the front speaker is “LARGE” and
the setting of the subwoofer mode is “NORM”).
When subwoofer effects are felt to be weak, while in the system setup mode try setting the subwoofer mode to “+MAIN”, or the front
speaker to “SMALL” in the system setup “Speaker Configuration” settings.
Making these settings will result in the low-frequency sounds of the front channel being played from the subwoofer.
