Introduction
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to obtain the best possible performance
from your unit, and retain this manual for future reference.
Features
Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier
RX-D701S features the JVC-exclusive Hybrid Feedback Digital
Amplifier. Premium-grade parts and devices, and special
internal construction assure you will enjoy superior sound.
USB WIRELESS
By using the USB wireless transmitter supplied with RX-D701S,
sound reproduced from your PC can be transmitted to this
receiver. You can choose PC as another playback source for
RX-D701S.
Compatible with HDMI*
The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the standard
interface for the next-generation TV. By connecting the source
components, this receiver, and TV with the HDMI cables, digital
video signals and audio signals (including Dolby Digital, DTS)
are transmitted through the cables. You can enjoy digital video
and sound without AD/DA conversion with easy connection.
As RX-D701S supports up to HDMI version 1.1, this receiver
can digitally transmit 5.1-channel PCM with sampling rates of
96 kHz and 2-channel PCM with sampling rates of 192 kHz.
(These PCM signals are referred to as "multi channel PCM" in
this instruction.) You can enjoy digital sound without
deterioration. In addition, this receiver is compatible with
HDCP** (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and
HDCP contents can be viewed if you connect a HDCP-
compatible TV to this receiver.
* HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia
Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI
Licensing LLC.
** HDCP is the abbreviation of "High-Bandwidth Digital Content
Protection," and is the high-reliable copy control technology
licenced by Digital Content Protection, LLC.
7.1 channel DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)
Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience
recreation of existing theaters and halls. Thanks to the high-
performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity
memory, you can enjoy 7.1-channel surround by playing 2-
channel or multi-channel software.
K2 Technology
K2 technology has been designed to enable natural audio
reproduction, achieving a drastic reduction in digital distortion
and creating original sound ambience with high precision.
CC (Compression Compensative) Converter
CC Converter eliminates jitter and ripples, achieving a drastic
reduction in digital distortion by processing the digital music
data in 24 bit­quantization and by expanding the sampling
frequency to 128 kHz (for fs 32 kHz signals)/176.4 kHz (for fs
44.1 kHz signals)/192 kHz (for fs 48 kHz signals). By using the
CC Converter, you can obtain a natural sound field from any
source.
DCDi technology
DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) technology,
developed by Faroudja, eliminates jagged edges generated in
progressive scan conversion. With DCDi, you can enjoy clear
and smooth video images on your display.
Precautions
Power sources
· When unplugging the receiver from the wall outlet, always pull
the plug, not the AC power cord.
· Do not handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
· If you are not going to operate the receiver for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
Ventilation
The seven high power amplifiers built in this receiver will generate
heat inside the cabinet.
For safety, observe the following carefully:
· Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor
ventilation could overheat and damage the receiver.
· Do not block the ventilation openings or holes. (If the ventilation
openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the
heat may not be able to get out.)
Others
· Should any metallic object or liquid fall onto the unit, unplug the
unit and consult your dealer before operating any further.
· Do not use this receiver in a bathroom or places with water.
· Do not place any containers filled with water or liquids (such as
cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.)
on top of this receiver.
· Do not disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable
parts inside.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult
your JVC dealer.
