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.

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.

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 bit–quantization 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.

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.
