Speaker connections
Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers
making sure that like polarities are matched (<
with <, > with >).
NOTE:
When making connections, take care that
none of the individual conductors of the
speaker cable come in contact with adjacent
terminals, with other speaker cable
conductors, or with the rear panel and
screws.
NEVER touch the speaker terminals when
the power is on. Doing so could result in
electric shocks.
Connecting the speaker cables

1. Loosen by turning
counterclockwise.
Either tightly twist or terminate the core
wires.
2. Insert the cable.
3. Tighten by turning clockwise.
With the AVR-2307CI, up to ten speakers can be connected for surround playback.
When making connections, also refer to the operating instructions of the other components.

Note on speaker impedance

When using speakers with an impedance
below the designated value (for example 4
/ohms), playing for long periods of time with
the volume high could cause the temperature
to rise, activating the protection circuit.
When the protection circuit is activated, the
output to the speakers is cut off and the power
indicator blinks. If this happens, unplug the
power cord, wait for the set to cool off and
improve ventilation around the unit. Also check
the wiring of the input cables and the speaker
cables. After doing this, plug the power cord
back in and turn the units 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.

The AVR-2307CIs video up-conversion function lets you output

analog video input signals (component 480i/576i, 480p/576p, 1080i
or 720p; S-Video and composite video - 480i/576i) to the HDMI
monitor output terminal with the original resolution.
The on screen display signals are output from the HDMI monitor
output terminal with a resolution of 480i/576i. Because of this, if the
monitor equipped with HDMI terminal is compatible with the
480i/576i resolution, all the signals the AVR-2307CI handles can be
output to the monitor with a single HDMI cable.
If your monitor is compatible with a resolution of 480i, the set can

be used with Analog to HDMI Convert at Setting the HDMI Out
Setup (
page 54) set to ON.
The resolutions with which the monitor is compatible can be
checked using the STATUS button or the ON SCREEN button on the
remote control unit.
It is not possible to down-convert from HDMI input signals to the
component, S-Video or composite video monitor output terminals.
If the monitor equipped with HDMI terminal is not compatible with
the 480i/576i resolution, connect the player and the AVR-2307CI
using a component cable and set the players resolution to one
which the monitor can handle.
Video down conversion to the monitor output is only possible when
the component video input resolution is 480i (interlaced standard
definition video NTSC format, for North America) or 576i
(interlaced standard definition video PAL format, for Europe and
other countries).
To set the video conversion function to OFF (
page 54).
On screen display for component video outputs

and HDMI output
When viewing component video signals or HDMI signals via the
AVR-2307CI, the on screen display is displayed on the monitor
when the System Setup operations are performed and when
the remote control units ON SCREEN button is operated.
When only component video signals are input to the AVR-2307CI,
the characters of the on screen display are not displayed over the

Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI
terminal; however, the AVR-2307CI cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI terminal.
The audio signals from the HDMI terminal (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be
limited by the equipment that is connected.
The video signals are not output properly if a device not compatible with HDCP is used.
Use an HDMI monitor compatible with an HDMI input resolution of 480i or 576i.
The video signals input from the HDMI input terminals are output to the HDMI monitor with their
original resolution, so the image will not be displayed if the resolutions of the input signal and the
monitor being used are not matched. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source
device (player) to one which the monitor can handle.
Use a cable including the HDMI logo (HDMI certified product) for connection of the HDMI terminal.
Normal playback may not be possible if a cable that does not include the HDMI logo (non-HDMIcertified product) is used.
A simple 1-cable connection (using a commercially available cable) with a device having an HDMI (HighDefinition Multimedia Interface) terminal allows digital transfer of the digital images of DVD-Video and
other sources, and the multi-channel sound of DVD-Audio and DVD-Video.

When the power amplifier is assigned to the ZONE2 output channel at Power Amp Assignment in the
System Setup Menu, the surround back pre-out terminals can be used as the ZONE2 pre-out out
terminals (
page 58).
If another power amplifier or pre-main (integrated) amplifier is connected, the ZONE2 out (variable/fixed
level) terminals can be used to play a different program source in ZONE2 the same time (
page 42).
When a sold separately room-to-room remote control unit (DENON RC-616, 617 or 618) is wired and
connected between the MAIN ZONE and ZONE2, the remote-controllable devices in the MAIN ZONE
can be controlled from ZONE2 using the remote control unit.

Basic Operation
Basic Operation
Using the DENON original surround modes

The AVR-2307CI is equipped with a high performance digital signal processor (DSP) that uses digital signal processing to recreate sound fields
artificially. One of seven surround modes can be selected according to the program source and parameters can be further adjusted to achieve
even more realistic sound fields.
Types of surround modes and their features

5CH/7CH STEREO
(NOTE 1)
This mode lets you enjoy stereo sound with seven speakers. The front L (R) channel signals are played from the
surround and surround back L (R) channels and only the in-phase component of the L and R channels is played on
the center channel.
ROCK ARENA
This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live concert in an arena.
JAZZ CLUB
This mode recreates the atmosphere of a live concert in a club with low ceilings, hard walls and the artist just in
front of you.
MONO MOVIE
(NOTE 2)
This mode recreates the atmosphere of an expansive sound field for movie sources recorded in monaural.
VIDEO GAME
This mode provides a rich sense of presence for video games.
MATRIX
This mode recreates music sources recorded in stereo with an enhanced sense of expansion.
VIRTUAL
This mode can be used to enjoy surround sound with only front speakers or when using headphones.
NOTE 1: 5CH STEREO is displayed when SB CH OUT is set to OFF.

NOTE 2: 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
adapter cable to split the mono output to two outputs, and connect to the L and R inputs.
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.

Additional Information
We recommend using two speakers.
When using dipolar speakers in particular, be sure to use two speakers.
Surround back speakers

Sound position directly to the rear can be achieved easily by adding a
surround back speaker to a 5.1-channel system.
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.

DTS Digital Surround

DTS Digital Surround is a digital surround format developed by Digital
Theater Systems of the United States.
The number of playback channels and the playing band is the same as
for Dolby Digital (5.1-channels).
The compression rate of the audio data when it was recorded on the
medium is lower than for Dolby Digital, so there is more information
when the data is decoded, resulting in richer, clearer sound quality.
This is a matrix decoding technology for 6.1-channel surround playback

of 2-channel sources.
The optimum decoding for the type of signal source to be played can
be selected. There are two modes.
Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by

Dolby Laboratories.
A total of 5.1-channels are played: three front channels (FL, FR
and C), two surround channels (SL and SR) and the LFE
channel for low frequencies.
Because of this, there is no crosstalk between channels and a realistic
sound field with a three-dimensional feeling (sense of distance,
movement and positioning) is achieved.
A real, overpowering sense of presence is achieved when playing
movie sources in AV rooms as well.

Laboratories. Regular music such as that on CDs is encoded into 5

channels to achieve an excellent surround effect.
The surround channel signals are converted into stereo and full band
signals (with a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater) to
create a three-dimensional sound image offering a rich sense of
presence for all stereo sources.
[3] Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a further improved version of the Dolby Pro
Logic II matrix decoding technology.
Audio signals recorded in 2 channels are decoded to achieve a natural
sound with up to 7.1-channels.
There are three modes: Music suited for playing music, Cinema
suited for playing movies, and Game which is optimum for playing
games.
DTS-ES is a new surround format developed by Digital Theater

Systems.
A sound image and sense of positioning can be achieved by adding a
surround back (SB) channel to the conventional 5.1-channels.
DTS-ES Discrete 6.1:
This is the latest format, in which all 6.1-channels, including the
SB channel, are recorded independently. Since the different
channels are independent, the sound can be designed with total
freedom.
DTS-ES Matrix 6.1:
With this format, the SB channel is matrix-encoded and inserted
into the SL and SR channels, then decoded for the SL, SR
and SB channels upon playback. This achieves a surround sound
more faithful to the artists sound design intentions than with
conventional 5.1- or 6.1-channel systems.

Neural Surround
Troubleshooting
Neural Surround, a breakthrough in audio technology, will bring the

excitement of surround music to more of Americas listening
audience. It provides the rich envelopment and discrete image detail
of surround sound in a format 100 % compatible with stereo. With
superior spectral resolution and channel separation, Neural
Surround draws the brains attention to sonic details in musical
instruments, vocals, and ambience that are typically masked by other
playback systems. This allows the listener to fully experience the
richness and subtleties in recorded performance as never before. As
the chosen format for XM Satellite Radios new XM HD surround
programming, Neural Surround will help deliver more surround music
to more listeners than any other broadcast format. XM Satellite Radio
will be the first radio company -to broadcast surround sound on the
radio 24 hours a day and will offer three channels fully dedicated to
Neural Surround music. This alone will amount to more than 25,000
hours of Neural Surround music each year.
If a problem should arise, first check the following.

1. Are the connections correct?
2. Have you operated the receiver according to the Operating Instructions?
3. Are the speakers and other components operating properly?
If this unit is not operating properly, check the items listed in the table below. Should the problem persist,
there may be a malfunction. Disconnect the power immediately and contact your store of purchase.
