The RV-5 includes eight configurable inputs, each of which can be assigned to its built-in tuner, eight digital audio, eight analog audio, phono, five composite video, five S-Video or three component video input connectors. The analog connectors can be configured for up to two 5.1-channel sources. The RV-5 features an integrated 7-channel power amplifier that is designed to achieve high levels of power and performance. Equipped with a toroidal power transformer, the amplifier also provides thermal and DC protection. The RV-5 AM/FM stereo radio tuner features four tuning regions, allows for the automatic or manual storing of up to 40 preset stations, can receive elements of the Radio Data System (RDS) broadcasts, and is fully configurable for ease of operation. The RV-5 also includes a phono input. Inside and out, the RV-5 is designed for possible future developments. The rear panel houses one RS-232 connector capable of performing configuration downloads and flash memory software upgrades, and another capable of supporting future developments. The rear panel also includes one removable access panel to accommodate connectors for emerging technologies. More than just an audio and video control center, the RV-5 features the latest version of Lexicon’s critically acclaimed Logic 7 ® decoding, which creates 7.1-channel output from stereo, and 5.1-and 6.1-channel sources. Unlike other decoders, Logic 7 is compatible with all input sources and requires no special encoding. Because the improvement it provides is clearly audible, Logic 7 1-2 decoding is widely regarded as the finest available. A Logic 7-encoded downmix of multichannel source material is available when using the Headphone listening mode. If a stereo source is present, the HEADPHONE L7 listening mode processes it using LOGIC7, then uses Head Related Transfer Functions to create a headphone output that introduces a subtle sense of surround sound, while preserving the original stereo image. In addition to Logic 7, the RV-5 offers Dolby Digital Surround EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS 96/24, DTS neo:6, and DTS-ES. The RV-5 is one of the most advanced audio and video control centers available. High-precision 24-bit/96kHz A/D converters can be used to convert stereo analog audio input signals to digital signals, allowing the RV-5 to provide the benefits of precise digital signal processing without sacrificing signal integrity. 24-bit/192kHZ D/A converters are available for all output channels. Alternatively, 5.1-channel and stereo analog signals can bypass A/D conversion and internal processing, following a pure signal path directly to the output connectors. Digital audio input signals are processed through a two-stage phase lock loop for extremely low intrinsic jitter and high rejection. Lexicon’s proprietary auto azimuth technology corrects timing and level imbalances in stereo sources, ensuring exceptionally accurate playback of surround-encoded sources. A digital audio passthrough output is available for recording digital signals with a CD recorder or a similar component. Complementing its audio performance, the RV-5 features broadcast-quality video switchers. An ultrawide-bandwidth component video switcher accepts analog component or RGB video signals, while a composite and S-Video switcher accepts high- RV-5 quality NTSC, PAL or SECAM video signals. Composite and S-Video sources can be converted to 480i NTSC (576i PAL) component video. The component video switcher can pass high-definition TV (HDTV) signals and standard-definition (SD) TV signals. Both switchers are designed to pass video signals without alteration or degradation. Built to professional standards, the RV-5 is designed to serve as the control center in any high-quality home theater. Even the most demanding enthusiast will be impressed with its unique combination of power, performance, flexibility and technological sophistication. With extensive expansion capabilities, the RV-5 represents a solid investment that will retain its value in the face of rapidly emerging technologies. Based on the decoding platform of the Lexicon processor line, the RV-8 Receiver is an exceptional addition to any home theater system. AM/FM tuner, powerful amplifier, three independent zones, impressive digital processor – the RV-8 is truly two separate products seamlessly integrated into an incredibly flexible, highperformance, and sophisticated amplifier/processor system. The RV-8 has enough raw power available to drive a 7-channel system with room to spare thanks to a prodigious 140 watts per channel. Even more impressive, it is capable of driving, difficult speaker loads while retaining exceptional transparency, wide dynamic range, and sonic neutrality. Flexibility is a necessity in today’s home theater and the RV-8 delivers. The RV-8 can process all major formats from Dolby and DTS, and features THX Ultra2 enhancements. These formats are programmed into the RV-8 software as selectable preferred listening Getting Started modes. The listener can also program the RV-8 to a specific listening mode by the input source selected, making favorite settings simple and automatic. The AM/FM tuner also features the Radio Data Systems (RDS) information, where available. The RV-8 features Lexicon’s LOGIC 7 decoding. This technology is based on decades of scientific research into how we hear and the study of room acoustics. Lexicon Logic 7 processing intelligently derives up to 7 channels from any 2-channel, 5.1-channel, or 6.1channel input source. LIVE, a unique system that transforms any listening room into an ideal acoustic space, is also utilized in the RV8 receiver. The RV-8 also features Bass Enhancement, another Lexicon proprietary technology developed specifically for surround systems. During a live musical performance, bass envelops the listener; however, when listening to the same performance from recorded media in your home theater, the bass has more of an “in your head” quality, instead of surrounding you. This phenomenon results from low frequency sound waves and their interaction with the natural acoustics of the room. The Lexicon Bass Enhancement system is designed to reproduce the sense of bass envelopment that exists during live performances. Highly flexible, the RV-8 has three separate audio zones. Since all three zones are wholly independent, it’s possible to watch a DVD in the home theater while listening to a CD in the office and watching satellite TV in the kitchen. These additional zones can be controlled by IR or RS-232 based control systems. With enormous flexibility, a powerful amplifier, superior processing, and phenomenal sound quality, the RV-8 is truly in a class of its own and would make a fine addition to any home theater. Contact your local authorized Lexicon dealer to transform your listening experience today. 1-3 Getting Started Lexicon HIGHLIGHTS • Eight channels • Eight configurable inputs • Three independent zones • Integrated 7-channel amplifier with thermal and DC protection and toroidal power transformer • Compatible with 2Ω speaker impedances • Four S/PDIF coaxial and four S/PDIF optical (Toslink) digital audio input connectors • One S/PDIF coaxial and one S/PDIF optical (Toslink) digital audio output connectors • DTS 96/24, DTS NEO:6, and DTS-ES (discrete and matrix) decoding • RS-232 control • Two trigger output connectors • Rear-panel IR input connector • 24-Bit/192kHz D/A converters for all audio channels • Two microphone input connectors • Two internal expansion slots • Two sets of analog A/V Zone 2 outputs; one fixed, one variable • Removable access panel • AM/FM stereo radio tuner • RDS • Broadcast-quality video switching • Flash memory software upgrade capabilities • Phono input with 2-channel analog bypass path • Video up conversion from S-video/ composite to component video • Optional 19-inch rack-mount kit • Up to two 5.1-channel analog audio input connectors • Automatic and manual calibration of speaker distances and output levels • IR preprogrammed/learning remote control with LCD display • Analog bypass option for 5.1 analog stereo audio input connectors • Three component video input connectors with full HDTV compatibility • Maximum volume level • Auto switching between digital and analog audio input connectors • Five composite video input connectors • Five S-Video input connectors • Headphone output with LOGIC7 processing • One component video output • Two 32-bit DSP engines for custom processing • Logic 7 decoding • Two 32-bit DSP engines • Separate DSP engine for decoding compressed audio sources 1-4 • • Dolby Digital Surround EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, and Dolby Pro Logic decoding Getting Started RV-5 PRODUCT REGISTRATION Please register the RV-5 Receiver within 15 days of purchase.

AMPLIFIER OVERVIEW The RV-5 features a 9-channel power amplifier with 140W per channel. Heavy duty gold plated 5-way binding posts are provided for speaker connections. The amplifiers feature advanced thermal current and DC protection for each channel. Thermal protection monitors the temperature of the chassis and heatsinks and automatically deactivates the specific channel(s) when they exceed their normal safe operating temperature. Current protection ensures that the output transistors are protected by limiting the current capability which is determined by the output voltage, while DC protection prevents DC and frequencies below 10Hz from reaching the speakers. The amplifiers are designed to meet the highest standards of performance and sound quality. MAKING CONNECTIONS WITH THE AMPLIFIER OUTPUT The amplifier output connectors can accept bare speaker wires, banana plug connectors or certain spade connectors. When using bare speaker wires, loosen the connector, insert the wire into the top of the receptacle, then tighten the connector. The same procedure should be used for spade connectors. Banana plugs should be inserted into the outward-facing receptacle. Use heavy-gauge speaker cable to ensure low-impedance connections between the amplifier and the speakers. Observe correct speaker polarity. CAUTION! Do not connect the outputs of one channel to the outputs of other channels or to other amplifiers. 2-8 Basic Operation RV-5 TUNER OVERVIEW The RV-5 features an AM/FM stereo radio tuner. The front panel displays the currently selected frequency, band, listening mode and volume. Forty presets can store AM or FM frequencies, identified by the preset number/name and station frequency/band. For example: WABC/90.90 FM or Preset 02/10.30 AM. Two antennas are supplied with the RV-5: one for AM and one for FM stereo. At a minimum, use of the supplied antennas is recommended to ensure consistent tuner performance. The tuner can be setup to receive elements of the Radio Data System (RDS) broadcasts. Originated in Europe and now with limited availability in the US, the RDS is a standard for broadcasting digital data along with an FM radio broadcast. When the RDS option is active and RDS data is received, the RV-5 tuner displays the identity of the broadcast station, receipt of alternate station frequencies and any additional text (referred to as RT or Radio Text) that the station broadcasts. For more information on RDS features, see “Tuner Setup” on page 3-72. DIRECT STATION ACCESS To access a specific frequency, use the numeric buttons on either the front panel or remote control to enter the desired station frequency. To directly access a station from the front panel or remote control: 1. Press the AM/FM button to select the desired band. 2. Enter the three or four digit station frequency. For example, to load FM station 90.9, press 9-0-9. To load AM station 1030, press the AM/FM button to select the AM band, then press 1-0-3-0. Note: When digits are first entered, a “Loading Preset” status message appears in the front-panel (and on-screen) display. When a third digit is entered, the RV-5 senses a frequency is being entered and changes the status message to “Setting Frequency.” TUNE/SEEK ACCESS SELECTING A STATION Begin selecting a radio station by activating the built-in tuner input. To activate the tuner input, press the front-panel TUNER button or select the TUNER option from the remote-control MAIN screen. See the “Tuner Setup” on page 3-72 for more information. Next, determine if the desired frequency band is active by pushing the front-panel or remote-control AM/FM button to toggle between the AM and FM frequency bands. Once the frequency band is set, there are several ways to select a radio station: direct station access, tune/seek access, scan mode and presets. Press one of the Tune/Seek buttons on the front panel ( / ) or remote control ( ) to navigate to the next available frequency. For example, if the currently loaded frequency is 101.7FM, press the Tune/Seek button to load 101.9FM. Press the Tune/Seek button again to load 102.1FM, and so on. Press one of the Tune/Seek buttons on the front panel ( / ) or remote control ( ) for 2 seconds to activate seek mode. Seek mode searches for the next available radio station. If the tuner is having difficulty locating stations, raise the sensitivity level. See “SCAN SENS” on 3-73 for more information. 2-9 Basic Operation TUNER OVERVIEW Lexicon Note: (continued) This feature is only accessible via the remote control. SCAN MODE Scan Mode scans through all available stations, pausing for two seconds on each station before scanning to the next one. To enter Scan Mode: Press and hold the front-panel ( / ) or remote-control ( Tune/Seek buttons until SCAN or SCAN is displayed. To stop scanning: Press either Tune/Seek button. LOADING PRESETS To load a preset: Enter a preset (number between 1 and 40) using the front-panel or remote-control number buttons. A “Loading Preset” status message appears in the front-panel (and on-screen) display. If a third digit is entered, the tuner switches over to Direct Station Access mode and the front-panel status message changes to “Setting Frequency.” SAVING PRESETS The RV-5 has 40 presets available for storing AM or FM stations. The presets are divided into four banks with ten presets per bank. It is possible to store a combination of AM and FM stations in each bank. Storing presets on the RV-5 can be accomplished from either the front panel or the remote control. The operation is identical. To save a station as a preset on the RV-5: 1. Press the front-panel or remote-control SAVE button. A status message displaying ”Saving Preset” appears in the front-panel (and on-screen) display. 2. Enter a number between 1 and 40 to save the currently loaded frequency as the corresponding preset. For example, if the tuner is currently playing 101.7FM, press the SAVE button, then the 1 button to save 101.7FM as preset number 1. Press the 1 button followed by the 5 button to save as preset number 15. Pressing more than two numbers resets the preset number to the third digit entered. Pressing the SAVE button a second time cancels the saving process. To skip through available presets in order: Press the remote-control or button. For example, if preset 1 is loaded and the button is pressed, the RV-5 will load preset 2 (or the next available preset). If preset 1 is loaded and the button is pressed, the RV-5 will load preset 40 (or the next available preset). 2-10 NAMING PRESETS Preset stations use a naming system based on the RDS system. In the US, each preset channel is identified by the station's call letters, or what the broadcast information identifies as the call letters. In Europe and Japan, each preset channel is identified by the station's Program Basic Operation RV-5 Service (PS) name. If the RDS information is not available, the preset name defaults to PresetXX, where XX is the listed number position in the Preset menu. For example, if Preset #01 is FM 90.90 and the call letters are WABC, then the name for that position is WABC. If Preset #23 does not broadcast their call letters, then that location is identified as Preset23 in the menu. See “Tuner Presets” on page 5-2 for additional information. AUTOLOAD The RV-5 can automatically scan and store presets. This can be accomplished only from the remote control. See “Tuner Setup (continued)” on page 3-74 for additional information. To start autoloading: EDITING PRESETS It is possible to customize the name of each preset on the RV-5. 1. Select AUTOLOAD from the MAIN MENU : SETUP : TUNER SETUP menu. 2. Press menu to start AUTOLOAD. To edit the preset name: 1. Select TUNER PRESETS from the MAIN MENU. The TUNER PRESETS menu contains a list of preset pages. PAGE 1 contains presets 1 through 10, PAGE 2 contains presets 11 through 20, etc. 2. Select the page containing the desired preset. A list of presets appears. 3. Select the desired preset. The EDIT PRESET menu opens and displays the preset call letters (or PS), frequency, and band. The EDIT PRESET menu options are as follows: • Select LISTEN TO PRESET to load the preset frequency. • Select NAME to customize the preset name. The preset name can be up to eight characters long. • Select CLEAR PRESET to clear the frequency and band information from the preset. 2-11 Basic Operation REMOTE CONTROL OVERVIEW The RV-5 remote control provides full operation of the RV-5, including commands, such as menu navigation, that are not available from the front panel. It is also designed to provide control for the entire home theater system. This section provides a brief over vie w of t he remote contro l. For detailed operation/ programming instructions and manufacturing codes, refer to Appendix C. OPERATION CONSIDERATIONS The following factors can improve or impede remote control operation. Note the following before operating the RV-5 remote control: • The remote control must be in line-of-sight with the front-panel IR receiver. Eliminate obstructions between the remote control and the IR receiver. The remote control may become unreliable if strong sunlight or fluorescent light shines on the IR receiver. • For optimal performance, position the remote control at a 30-degree angle no more than 40 to 60 feet (12.2m to 18.3m) from the RV-5. Placing the RV-5 inside a smoked glass cabinet will reduce the remote control range. • Remote controls for different components can interfere with one another. Avoid using remote controls for different components at the same time. • Remote-control batteries should be replaced as needed. 2-12 Lexicon Basic Operation RV-5 Note: The DVD1 device has been preprogrammed to control the Lexicon RT-10 and RT-20 disc players.

The Main Zone controls audio and video signals in the primary listening space. Zone 2 controls digital and analog audio and composite or S-Video signals for a second zone or recording device. The two-line status opens in the on-screen and front-panel displays whenever the RV-5 detects a change in input source or listening mode. The Main Zone two-line status appears when the RV-5 detects a Main Zone change, and the Zone 2 (or Zone 3) two-line status appears when a Zone 2 (or Zone 3) status change is detected. The following are exceptions to independent zone operation: 1. The same Dolby Digital or DTS(-ES) input source can be simultaneously selected for the Main Zone and Zone 2. However, different Dolby Digital or DTS(-ES) input sources cannot be present in the Main Zone and Zone 2. The ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu STATUS parameter is used to control the length of time the two-line status appears in the onscreen display. The ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu POSITION parameter is used to control the vertical alignment of the two-line status in the display device screen. 2. Zone 2 can provide a 2-channel downmix of Main Zone multichannel audio when all of the following conditions are met: Note: • The same input must be selected in the Main Zone and Zone 2. • A Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES) or 5.1a input source must be present in the Main Zone. • The INPUT SETUP menu ZONE2 IN parameter must be set to DMIX. See “ZONE2 in Parameter Settings” on page 3-22 for more information. 3. The Zone 2 audio output connectors will receive Front L/R when a 5.1a source is present in the Main Zone and the ZONE2 IN parameter is set to ANLG. 4. When 5.1a BYPASS or 2-CH BYPASS is selected, a downmix to Zone 2 is not available. When the display device is connected to a component video output connector and the MAIN ADV menu COMPONENT OSD parameter is set to OFF, the on-screen display does not appear on the associated display. MAIN ZONE TWO-LINE STATUS Opens in the on-screen and front-panel DVD1 VOL displays whenever the RV-5 detects a Main FILM -34dB Zone status change.

When the parameter setting is MATRIX, a matrix-encoded source is detected. When the parameter setting is NONE, a matrix-encoded source is not detected. The RV-5 cannot automatically detect matrix encoding in non-flagged input sources. BIT RATE 32 to 640 kbps or 754 to 1509.7kbps Indicates the rate at which the input signal is encoded. A higher bit rate indicates that less compression was used during the encoding process. Possible settings for Dolby Digital sources range from 32 to 640 kbps. Possible settings for DTS(-ES) sources range from 754 to 1509.7 kbps. Possible settings for Dolby Digital input sources include 3/2.1, 3/2, 3/1, 2/2, 2/1, 2/0 and 1/0. Possible settings for DTS(-ES) input sources include 3/3.1 and 3/2.1. DIALOG OFFSET –27 to +4dB Indicates the dialog normalization value applied to the input signal. Dolby Digital input sources reproduce dialog at 27 decibels below fullscale (–27dBFS). When the dialog normalization value of the incoming signal is higher or lower, the DIALOG OFFSET parameter indicates the amount of adjustment the RV-5 makes to normalize dialog to –27dBFS. ES ENCODING DISCRETE, MATRIX, OFF Indicates the relative level of the center channel that was used during the mixing process. Indicates whether or not a DTS-ES-encoded source is detected. When the parameter setting is DISCRETE, a discrete 6.1-channel DTS-ES source is detected. When the parameter setting is MATRIX, a 5.1-channel DTS-ES source with a surround-encoded back channel is detected. When the parameter setting is NONE, a standard DTS source with no DTS-ES encoding is detected. CHANNELS EX ENCODING CENTER MIX LVL –3.0dB, –4.5dB, –6.0dB 3/3.1, 3/2.1, 3/2, 3/1, 2/2, 2/1, 2/0, 1/0 Indicates the number of channels present in the input source. The first digit indicates the number of front channels present. The digit after the slash indicates the number of surround channels present. The digit after the decimal point indicates the presence of LFE (lowfrequency effects) information. For instance, if the parameter setting is 3/2.1, an input source with three front channels, two surround channels and LFE information is present. LFE information is sent to the Main Zone audio output connector labeled Sub. MATRIX, NONE Indicates whether or not a Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded source is detected. When the parameter setting is MATRIX, a 5.1-channel Dolby Digital source recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX is detected. When the parameter setting is NONE, a standard 5.1channel Dolby Digital source recorded without Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding is detected. The RV-5 cannot automatically detect Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding in non-flagged input sources. 2-33 Basic Operation Lexicon INPUT SURR MIX LVL Indicates the selected input (e.g., DVD1). Indicates the relative surround channel level that was used during the mixing process. INPUT TYPE ANLG, BYP, PCM, MIC, --- Indicates the input source that is present. When the parameter setting is ANLG, a 2-channel analog audio source is present and the MAIN ADV menu 2-CH ANLG BYP parameter is set to OFF. When the parameter setting is BYP (Bypass), a 2-channel analog audio source is present and the 2-CH ANLG BYP parameter is set to ON. When the parameter setting is PCM, a 2-channel digital audio source is present. When the parameter is set to MIC, a microphone source is present. When the parameter setting is ---, an unknown digital audio source is present. MIX ROOM SMALL, LARGE Indicates the size of the mixing room that was used during the mixing process. When the parameter setting is LARGE, setting the RE-EQUALIZATION parameter to ON for THX listening modes is recommended. MODE Indicates the activated listening mode (e.g., L7 FILM). SAMPLE RATE 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz Indicates the sample rate of the input source that is present. 2-34 +0.0dB, –3.0dB, –6.0dB WORD LENGTH 16 bits, 20 bits, 24 bits Indicates the word length of the audio data present in the input signal. STATUS MENU LEVEL METERS Most STATUS menus contain level meters that indicate fluctuating input levels in the front left (L), center (C), front right (R), surround left (SL), surround right (SR), surround back (SB) and subwoofer (SUB) channels. These level meters indicate input levels for both analog and digital input sources. For instance, the level meters indicate digital audio input levels when a digital audio source is present. Different combinations of level meters appear on each STATUS menu, depending on the source that is present. The SB level meter appears when a 6.1-channel source is present, or when a 5.1-channel source is present and the ES DECODING parameter is set to ON. Level meters appear in combinations of green, yellow and red when the on-screen display is configured for a blue-screen background. Green indicates low levels, yellow indicates normal levels, and red indicates high levels and the onset of overload. Level meters appear in white when the on-screen display is not configured for a bluescreen background. 3 Setup Setup ..........................................................................................3-2 Input Setup.................................................................................3-4 Changing Input Names............................................................................. 3-5 Assigning Audio and Video Input Connectors ........................................... 3-7 Selecting Preferred Listening Modes........................................................ 3-12 Configuring Advanced Input Settings...................................................... 3-17 INPUT SELECT Parameter Settings........................................................... 3-19 ZONE2 in Parameter Settings.................................................................. 3-22 Speaker Setup ...........................................................................3-25 Setting Crossover Points.......................................................................... 3-25 Speaker Setup Parameters....................................................................... 3-29 Automatic Calibration ............................................................................. 3-36 Manual Calibration ................................................................................. 3-53 I/O Config.................................................................................3-60 Display Setup ............................................................................3-63 On-Screen Display Setup ........................................................................ 3-64 Front-panel Display Setup ....................................................................... 3-66 Volume Control Setup...............................................................3-68 Trigger Setup ............................................................................3-70 Tuner Setup ..............................................................................3-72 Tuner Region Band Limit And Increments ............................................... 3-73 Lock Options.............................................................................3-79 LIVE!

For example, the following can occur when a preferred listening mode is activated (also refer to the corresponding menus on 3-10): If the DVD1 input is selected and a 2-channel source is played, the L7 FILM listening mode is activated. If a Dolby Digital source is played, the 5.1 L7 FILM listening mode is activated. If a DTS(-ES) source is played, the DTS(-ES) L7 FILM listening mode is activated. Dynamic Listening Modes Dynamic listening modes are only available under certain conditions. For example, many of the dynamic modes are only available when the RV-5 is configured for seven main output channels and source material with specific encoding is played. All Dynamic Listening Modes are available through the remote control or front panel Mode button. The dynamic listening modes are listed in the table below. Dynamic modes 2-Channel Dolby Digital DTS Dolby PLIIx + THX Dolby PLIIx MOV Dolby PLIIx MUS DTS NEO:6 + THX DTS NEO:6 CIN DTS NEO:6 MUSIC Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital EX THX or THX UL2Cin or THX SurEX THX MUSIC 5.1 PLIIx MOV 5.1 PLIIx MUS DTS THX or DTS THX UL2Cin or DTS ES THX DTS or DTS ES MATRIX or DTS ES DISCR DTS THX MUSIC DTS L7 FILM or DTS ES L7 FILM DTS L7 MUSIC or DTS ES L7 MUSIC DTS 2-CHAN or DTS ES 2-CHAN Modes that Do Not Appear in the Input Setup Menu The RV-5 features the ability to assign preferred listening modes for each input and incoming audio format. However, not all listening modes will appear in the Input Setup Menu.

However, this newly selected mode will be lost when switching between inputs. The USE LAST parameter was designed to allow the RV-5 software to “remember” the last used listening mode for a given input source. Once selected, that mode will always be active on the corresponding input until another listening mode is selected as demonstrated in the following example: 1. Select Main Menu SETUP INPUTS DVD1 USE LAST. 2. Press the MENU button. When seven speakers are selected in the SPEAKER SETUP menu, and the appropriate source material is played, the dynamic listening mode (or mode that does not appear in the input setup menu) can always be accessed using the MODE + or MODE - buttons whether or not a preferred mode is set. When a preferred listening mode is set and a dynamic listening mode (or mode that does not appear in the input setup menu) is active, the selected dynamic mode is lost when switching between inputs. When USE LAST is selected as the preferred listening mode, and a dynamic listening mode (or mode that does not appear in the input setup menu) is active, the selected listening mode is retained when switching between inputs, even when the RV-5 is set to standby as in the following example: 3. Press the DVD-1 button. 1. 4. Play a DTS input source. 2. Press the MENU button. 5. Press the MODE + button until you reach DTS(-ES) 2-CHAN. 3. Press the DVD-1 button. 6. Press the TV button 4. Play a 2-channel input source. The RV-5 switches to the TV input and the on-screen display identifies the preferred listening mode. 7. Press the DVD-1 button. The on-screen display should identify that the active listening mode for the DVD1 input is still DTS(-ES) 2-CHAN. As the DTS(-ES) 2-CHAN mode is a preferred listening mode, it can also be set in the SETUP menu. 3-12 Select Main Menu SETUP INPUTS DVD1 2-CH 5. Press the MODE + button until you reach USE LAST. PLIIx MOV. PLIIx MOV is a dynamic listening mode. 6. Press the TV button The RV-5 switches to the TV input and the on-screen display identifies the preferred listening mode. 7. Press the DVD-1 button. Setup RV-5 The on-screen display should identify that the active listening mode for the DVD1 input is still PLIIx MOV. This is the only method of setting up a dynamic mode (or mode that does not appear in the input setup menu) to behave like a preferred listening mode. Note: When a dynamic mode (or mode that does not appear in the input setup menu) is set as in the above example, the setting is retained even when the RV-5 is set to standby. 2-CH SETUP INPUTS DVD1 2-CH Opens the 2-CH MODE menu, which is used to select a preferred listening mode for 2-channel input sources. The RV-5 activates the selected listening mode whenever a 2-channel source is present. When the 2-CH parameter is set to USE LAST: DOLBY D SETUP INPUTS DVD1 Opens the DOLBY DIGITAL MODE menu, which is used to select a preferred listening mode for Dolby Digital input sources. The RV-5 activates the selected listening mode whenever a new input is selected or a new Dolby Digital source is present.

The RV-5 toggles between sending the assigned digital and analog audio input connectors to the Main Zone audio output connectors, based on the input source that is present. Note the following: Note the following: For example: • The digital audio input connectors are compatible with PCM (44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96kHz), Dolby Digital and DTS(-ES) sources. • The RV-5 automatically sets the INPUT SELECT parameter to ANALOG when the DIGITAL IN parameter is set to NONE. • • • The digital audio input connectors are not compatible with MPEG or MP3 sources. If an incompatible digital audio source (e.g., MPEG or MP3) is present, the RV-5 automatically selects the assigned analog audio input connector. The ANALOG IN parameter can be used to assign an analog audio input connector for the selected input. When a 2-channel PCM, Dolby Digital or DTS(-ES ) source is presen t, th e RV-5 automatically selects the assigned digital audio input connector. • When an SACDTM source is present, the RV5 automatically selects the assigned analog audio input connector. • • • The RV-5 automatically sets the INPUT SELECT parameter to DIGITAL when the ANALOG IN parameter is set to NONE. If ANALOG IN is set to NONE, the RV-5 will mute. The DIGITAL IN parameter can be used to assign a digital audio input connector for the selected input. Note the following: • The RV-5 automatically sets the INPUT SELECT parameter to AUTO when both digital and analog audio input connectors are assigned. • When no compatible digital source is present, the RV-5 automatically selects the assigned analog audio input connector. • The AUTO setting is recommended for components that generate both digital and analog input signals, such as DVD/SACD players. 3-17 Setup Lexicon CONFIGURING ADVANCE INPUT SETTINGS (continued) S-VIDEO OSD 4:3 SETUP INPUTS DVD1 ON, OFF MAIN ADVANCED S-VIDEO OSD 4-3 Controls the appearance of the on-screen display when the display device is connected to an S-Video output connector. When set to ON, the display device shows the on-screen display in a 4:3 aspect ratio, regardless of the incoming signal. Aspect ratio refers to the ratio between the height and width of the picture on the display device or to the ratio between the height and width of the display device. A 4:3 aspect ratio is almost square. A 16:9 aspect ratio, often referred to as “widescreen,” is almost twice as wide as it is high. When OFF, the display device shows the on-screen display in the same aspect ratio as the incoming video input signal. Note: The on-screen display appears horizontally stretched across the display device screen when all of the following conditions are present: • • • The S-VIDEO OSD 4:3 parameter is OFF. An anamorphic video input signal is present. A 16:9 display device (widescreen) is connected to an S-Video output connector. 3-18 COMPONENT OSD SETUP INPUTS DVD1 ON, OFF MAIN ADVANCED COMPONENT OSD Controls the appearance of the on-screen display when the display device is connected to the component video output connector.

To minimize viewing distractions, the two-line status does not appear in the on-screen display. When OFF, the display device does not show the on-screen display, including the two-line status. Note: When the ON-SCREEN DISPLAY menu BACKGROUND parameter is OFF, the display device using the component video output connector will not show the on-screen display. Setup RV-5 LEGACY VIDEO SETUP INPUTS A, B DVD1 MAIN ADVANCED LEGACY VIDEO ZONE2 IN SETUP INPUTS DIGITAL, ANLG, DMIX DVD1 ZONE2 IN When video played back from a VCR is converted to component video by the RV-5, the resulting picture quality depends on both the quality of the VCR playback and the capabilities of the component display device. The LEGACY VIDEO menu item has two selections, A and B. Use the one that gives the best picture for the Combination of the VCR and display device. Controls the interaction of the digital and analog audio input connectors assigned to the current Zone 2 inputs. The INPUT SETUP menu can be used to assign one digital and one analog input connector for the selected input. See page 3-7 for more information. The table on the next page describes ZONE2 IN parameter settings. Note: Note Some combinations of VCR and display device may not produce a satisfactory picture with either setting. In such cases, better results may be achieved by connecting to the display device via composite or S-video. When using DTS-encoded discs, set the ZONE2 IN parameter to DMIX. FORMAT DETECT SETUP INPUTS DVD1 NORMAL, FAST MAIN ADVANCED FORMAT DETECT When the ZONE2 IN parameter is set to DIGITAL, the unit recognizes DTS-encoded discs as audio signals (not data signals) and outputs loud digital noise from the ZONE2 analog and digital audio outputs. For maximum flexibility with Dolby Digital and DTS (-ES) sources: 1. Select a Main Zone DIGITAL IN connector. Controls how the RV-5 reacts when it detects silence in the digital audio stream. Digital sources typically output a short period of silence when switching between sources. 2. Set the ZONE2 IN parameter to ANLG. When set to NORMAL, the RV-5 will not mute when silence is detected. This setting is appropriate for most sources. The unit will use the digital connector for the Main Zone, and the analog connectors for Zone 2. 3. Connect the digital and analog outputs on the DVD player to the corresponding digital and analog inputs on the RV-5. When set to FAST, the RV-5 will mute when approximately 2ms of continuous digital silence is detected. Once valid audio is received, the RV-5 will configure its processing and deactivate mute. This prevents digital noise from occurring during digital audio signal changes. For example, when switching from Dolby Digital to DTS. Use this setting if audible noise occurs during input digital format changes. 3-19 Setup Lexicon ZONE2 IN PARAMETER SETTINGS DIGITAL • The RV-5 automatically sets the ZONE2 IN parameter to DIGITAL when the ANALOG IN parameter is set to NONE. • The RV-5 sends the assigned D I G I TA L I N c o n n e c t o r specified in the INPUT SETUP menu to the ZONE 2 ANALOG and DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUTS. • • 3-20 Only PCM digital input sources are compatible with ZONE 2 analog audio outputs. Dolby Digital and DTS sources are compatible with the Zone 2 digital audio output when the DIG BYPASS parameter is set to ON. Audio will not be available in Zone 2 analog outputs when a Dolby Digital, DTS (-ES) or unknown digital input source is present. ANLG (Analog) • The ANALOG IN connector specified in the INPUT SETUP menu is sent to the ZONE 2 ANALOG and DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUTS. • Only Front L/R Audio will be available in Zone 2 when one of the 5.1 analog inputs is selected for the Main Zone. DMIX (Downmix) • Set the ZONE2 IN parameter to DMIX to send a downmixed version of Main Zone audio to the Zone 2 audio output connectors. Downmixes can be generated for Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES) and 5.1a sources. • To generate a downmix, the same input must be selected in the Main Zone and Zone 2. Otherwise, the Zone 2 audio output connectors will mute. • Main Zone listening mode activation affects the Zone 2 audio output connectors. For instance, when the MONO listening mode is activated in the Main Zone, the Zone 2 audio output connectors will generate mono output signals. • It is recommended that you set the ZONE2 IN parameter to DMIX when recording from a DVD player without built-in Dolby Digital or DTS-ES decoding to a VCR or PVR (e.g. Tivo® or Replay TV®). • A 2-channel downmixed version of Main Zone audio is sent to the ZONE 2 ANALOG and DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUTS. Downmixes can be generated for Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES) and 5.1 analog input sources. To generate a downmix, the input that is selected in Zone 2 must also be selected in the Main Zone (e.g., DVD1). Otherwise, the ZONE 2 ANALOG and DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUTS will mute. Downmixes cannot be generated when the 5.1a BYPASS listening mode is selected in the Main Zone.

DIG OUT RATE SETUP INPUTS 96kHz, 88.2kHz, 48kHz, 44.1kHz DVD1 ZONE2 ADVANCED DIG OUT RATE Controls the sample rate of analog input signals sent to the Zone 2 digital audio output connectors. When a value is selected, the RV-5 runs the Zone 2 A/D converters at the selected sample rate. It is recommended to set the DIG OUT RATE parameter to the appropriate value when using a recording format that operates on a single sample rate, such as CD-R format (44.1kHz). Note: DIG OUT RATE only affects analog input signals. It does not change the sample rate of digital input signals, or downmixed signals. 3-22 RECORD SETUP BLOCKED, ENABLED INPUTS DVD1 ZONE2 ADVANCED RECORD Prevents recording device feedback loops.

When the MODE ADJUST menu opens, the currently activated Main Zone listening mode is highlighted. Selecting a listening mode does not activate that listening mode for the current Main Zone input source. Rather, selecting a listening mode opens the corresponding listening mode menu, which is used to customize the selected listening mode. These adjustments are applied when the listening mode is selected with one of the methods described in the Listening Mode Activation section that begins below. LISTENING MODE ACTIVATION Listening modes are available for 2-channel, Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES), MIC and analog input sources. The RV-5 allows listening mode selection for all Main Zone sources. In some cases, the RV-5 automatically activates a listening mode in response to certain commands. For this reason, it is important to understand the three methods through which listening mode activation occurs. Note: When headphones are plugged into the RV-5, all listening modes are downmixed to two channels with the following exceptions: HEADPHONE L7, HEADPHONE 5.1, HEADPHONE DTS and HEADPHONE 5.1a. These listening modes are described in detail on page 6-27. Listening mode activation occurs through: • the INPUT SETUP menu preferred listening mode selection parameters (page 3-12). • the front-panel or remote control Mode button (page 2-17). • the remote control listening mode family selection buttons (page 2-17). Mode Adjust RV-5 PREFERRED LISTENING MODE SELECTION LISTENING MODE SELECTION BUTTONS The INPUT SETUP menus include four preferred listening mode selection parameters labeled 2-CH, DOLBY D, DTS(-ES), 5.1a and MIC. These parameters are used to select a preferred listening mode for 2-channel, Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES), 5.1a and LIVE! input sources. The RV-5 automatically activates the selected listening mode whenever a new input is selected or a new input source is present. The remote control listening mode selection buttons can be used to activate the Logic 7 Film, Dolby, DTS(-ES), Logic 7 Music, or Logic 7 TV listening mode that is appropriate for the Main Zone input source. For instance, if the L7 button is pressed while a 2-channel source is present, the L7 FILM listening mode is activated. The table below indicates the listening modes associated with each mode family selection button. MODE AND BUTTONS The front-panel and remote-control Mode arrow buttons can be used to audition listening modes with the current Main Zone input source. Pressing these buttons scrolls up ( ) or down ( ) through listening modes available for the current Main Zone source. Listening modes are scrolled in the order that appears in the MODE ADJUST menu. For example, if a 2-channel input source is present, press the or arrow buttons to scroll through available 2-channel listening modes. The selected listening mode appears in the bottom-left corner of the Main Zone two-line status. Dynamic Listening Mode Selection Dynamic listening modes are only available under certain conditions. For example, many of the dynamic modes are only available when the RV-5 is configured for seven main output channels and source material with specific encoding is played. All dynamic listening modes are available through the remote control or front panel Mode button.

Remove all obstructions between the speakers and the primary listening position. 2. Make sure the distances between the speakers and the primary listening position are properly measured. To do this, select one of the following options. • Select the AUTO SPEAKER SETUP menu DISTANCES option to have the RV-5 automatically calibrate speaker distances. • Measure the distance between the primary listening position and the front baffle of each speaker. Then, set the corresponding SPEAKER DISTANCES menu parameters to the closest available value. 3. Sit in the primary listening position. If the primary listening position is not centered between the front left and right speakers as shown in illustration B (above), set the PANORAMA CALIBRATION LISTENER POS parameter to compensate for the difference using the remote control and arrow 6-12 buttons. Each increment within the –127 to +127 parameter range represents about one-third of an inch. The Left illustration shows the left-of-center position. The Right illustration shows the right- of-center position 4. Set the SOURCE parameter to RIGHT. 5. Begin playback of the external calibration source. 6. When playback of the external calibration source is in progress, set the SPEAKER ANGLE parameter so the sound is not heard in the right ear. 7. To confirm the LISTENER POS and SPEAKER ANGLE parameter settings, set the SOURCE parameter to LEFT & RIGHT. If the PANORAMA listening mode is properly calibrated, the sound should be perceived to come from all around the primary listening position. If not, go back to Step 1 and repeat the calibration procedure.

Then set the rear-panel power switch to the | (“on”) position. 2. Use the RV-5 configuration tool to download the current RV-5 configuration to a personal computer (PC) or document all userdefined settings on the Installation Worksheet that begins on page D-2. Then, follow the instructions on the next page to restore factory-default settings. If all else fails... The tuner volume suddenly went mute, then after a minute it resumed. This seems to happen occasionally. Under the TUNER SETUP menu, is the AUTO FREQUENCY option active? You may be experiencing broadcast station dropouts. When the broadcast signal drops out, the volume is muted and AUTO FREQUENCY activates, scanning for alternate broadcast frequencies and then verifying that the station ID is an exact match. If the station ID matches and the alternate frequency is a stronger signal, then the tuner switches to the alternate frequency and turns off the volume mute. Otherwise, auto frequency scans for another alternate frequency and repeats the procedure. If there are a lot of alternate broadcast frequencies, this process can take a noticeable amount of time. To stop this behavior, simply turn off the Auto frequency option. 1. Document all user-defined settings on the Installation Worksheet that begins on page D-2. Then, follow the instructions on page 7-4 to restore factory-default settings. 7-3 Troubleshooting and Maintenance Lexicon ROUTINE MAINTENANCE low-pressure blower can be used to remove dust from its exterior surface. The bulleted items below describe routine maintenance that should be performed on a periodic basis. • Clean the RV-5 exterior surface with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol, benzene, acetone-based cleaners or strong commercial cleaners. Do not use a cloth made with steel wool or metal polish. If the RV-8 is exposed to a dusty environment, a • Replace the remote control batteries as needed. The remote control requires four AAA batteries. When these batteries are low on power, the remote control enters a low-voltage condition that prevents it from operating the RV-5. Normal operation will resume when new batteries are installed. RESTORING FACTORY-DEFAULT SETTINGS When factory-default settings are restored, all parameters and userdefined values are restored to their factory-default settings. Before restoring factory-default settings, record all user-defined settings in the Installation Worksheet in the Appendix on page D-2. FACTORY SETTINGS EXIT RESTORE DEFAULTS FACTORY SETTINGS HAVE BEEN RESTORED PRESS ANY KEY TO RESTART To restore factory-default settings: 1. Record all user-defined settings on the Installation Worksheet that begins on page D-2. When factory-default settings are restored, all parameters and user-defined values are restored to their factory-default settings. 2. If the RV-5 is powered on, press the front-panel standby button or the remote control Off button to activate standby mode and deactivate the RV-5. If the RV-5 is in standby mode, proceed to step 3. 7-4 3. Press the front-panel standby button or the remote control On button to deactivate standby mode and activate the RV-5. 4. Quickly press and hold the front-panel or remote control Mute button until the FACTORY SETTINGS menu opens in the onscreen and front-panel displays. 5. Press the remote control and arrow buttons to highlight the desired option. Highlight the RESTORE DEFAULTS option to restore factory-default settings. Highlight the EXIT option to close the FACTORY SETTINGS menu without restoring factorydefault settings. 6. When the desired option is highlighted, press the remote control arrow button to select this option. • If the RESTORE DEFAULTS option was selected, the FACTORY SETTINGS message shown in the previous page will appear in the on-screen and front-panel displays. When this message appears, press a front-panel or remote control button to restart the RV-5. • If the EXIT option is selected, the FACTORY SETTINGS menu will close and the two-line status will open in the on-screen and front-panel displays.
