NOTES:
• 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-3803's S-Video and
video monitor output jacks and signals are input to the AVR-3803 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 18.)
• The AVR-3803'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 headphones are being used.
• Speaker system layout
Basic system layout
• The following is an example of the basic layout for a system consisting of eight speaker systems and a
television monitor:
Subwoofer
Front speaker systems
Set these at the sides of the TV or
screen with their front surfaces as flush
with the front of the screen as possible.

Surround speaker systems
With the AVR-3803 it is also possible to use the surround speaker selector function to choose the best layout for
a variety of sources and surround modes.
• Surround speaker selector function
This function makes it possible to achieve the optimum sound fields for different sources by switching
between two systems of surround speakers (A and B).
