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.
COMPU LINK/AV COMPU LINK remote control
systems
The COMPU LINK/AV COMPU LINK remote control systems
allow you to operate other JVC audio/video components from this
receiver.
TEXT COMPU LINK remote control system
The TEXT COMPU LINK remote control system has been
developed to deal with the disc information recorded on the CD
Text and MDs. Using this information on the discs, you can
operate the CD player or MD recorder through the receiver.
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
Five high power amplifiers built in this receiver will generate heat
inside the cabinet. When the temperature inside the cabinet
increases, the internal fan automatically starts rotating to reduce the
internal temperature. 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.
Features
THX Surround EX (DTS-ES compatible)
By adding surround back speakers through an amplifier
(separately purchased) connected to the PREOUT (SURR BACK)
jacks, you can enjoy THX Surround EX. It is a format that has
additional left and right surround back channels on the basis of
Dolby Digital 5.1 channels. It improves the definition and the
sense of sound movement in surround (rear) channels.
· This receiver is also compatible with DTS Extended Surround
(DTS-ES)--another multichannel surround containing
additional left and right surround back channels.
5.1 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 5.1-channel surround by playing 2-
channel or 5.1-channel software.
· By adding surround back speakers through an amplifier
(separately purchased) connected to the PREOUT (SURR
BACK) jacks, you can enjoy 7.1-channel surround.
Multichannel headphone virtual surround
sound--3D HEADPHONE
The built-in headphone virtual surround system is compatible with
multichannel software like Dolby Digital, DTS Surround, etc.
Thanks to the new signal processing algorithms used by the high-
performance DSP, you can enjoy a natural surround sound through
the headphones.
192 kHz/24 bit PEM DD audio DA converter
The JVC-exclusive converter is now upgraded to be fully
compatible with DVD Audio's high specifications. Subtle nuances
are accurately reproduced.
CC (Compensative Compression) 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 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.
Multi-brand remote control
The remote control provided for this receiver can transmit control
signals for many manufacturers' components.
