Speaker units
When installing the speakers, take careful considerations for safety when selecting the place and method of
installation.
When using stands or brackets, follow their instructions and check for safety before using and installing. To
install on ceilings or walls, to ensure safety have a specialist do the installation work. Note that DENON will
accept no responsibility for injuries or accidents resulting from the speakers falling, etc., due to improper
installation or mounting.
4FEATURES1. Dolby Digital decoder
Dolby Digital, a digital discrete system in which the
different channels are completely independent, recreates
“three-dimensional” sound fields (sounds with a sense of
distance, movement and position) with no crosstalk
between channels for greater reality. In addition, the 5
channels (excluding the 0.1 channel for low frequency
effects) have a playback range extending to 20 kHz, the
same as the range of CDs, thus resulting in clearer, more
richly expressive sound.
2. Dolby Pro Logic IIdecoder
Dolby Pro Logic IIis a new format for playing multichannel
audio signals that offers improvements over conventional
Dolby Pro Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources
recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo sources
into five channels (front left/right, center and surround
left/right). In addition, various parameters can be set
according to the type of source and the contents, so you
can adjust the sound field with greater precision.
3. DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high
fidelity surround sound, from sources such as laser disc,
DVD and specially-encoded music discs.
4. High performance DSP simulates 7 sound fields
Playback is possible in 7 surround modes: 5-channel
Stereo, Mono Movie, Rock Arena, Jazz Club, Video Game,
Matrix and Virtual. You can enjoy a variety of sound effects
for different movie scenes and program sources even with
stereo sources not in Dolby Surround.
5. Personal Memory Plus function
Personal Memory Plus is an advanced version of Personal
Memory. With Personal Memory Plus, the set
automatically memorizes the surround mode and input
mode for each of the separate input sources.
6. Remote control unit with pre-memory function
This unit comes with a remote control unit equipped with a
pre-memory function. The remote control command codes for
DENON remote controllable components as well as for video
decks, TVs, etc., of other major manufacturers are prestored in
the memory.
7. 6-channel digital power amplifier
The ADV-1000 is equipped with a 55W + 55W (6 Ω/ohms,
1 kHz, T.H.D. 10%) 6-channel digital power amplifier,
allowing 5.1-channel surround playback when used in
combination with the super woofer.
8. Many convenient functions
(1) Multiple audio function
Selection of up to 8 audio languages.
(The number of languages offered differs from DVD to
DVD.)
(2) Multiple subtitle function
Selection of up to 32 subtitle languages.
(The number of languages offered differs from DVD to
DVD.)
(3) Multiple angle function
The angle of view can be changed.
(For DVDs on which multiple angles are recorded.)
(4) Playback disable function
This function can be used to disable playback of DVDs
you do not want children to watch.
9. Stylish 5.1-channel surround AV speaker system
Satellite speaker equipped with a super tweeter unit
capable of reproducing a wide frequency range of up to 80
kHz, plus a passive super woofer producing clear, firm
bass sound.
Cautions on installation
The quality of the sound produced from the speakers depends
on the size of the room, the type of room (Japanese style or
western style) and how the speakers are mounted. Consider
the following when installing the speakers:
2Note that installing a speaker system on the same table or
shelf as a record player may result in howling.
2If there is a wall or glass pane, etc., directly in front or in back
of the speaker system, use thick curtains, etc., to prevent
resonance or reflection of the sound.
2The USYS-1000 speaker systems are of the anti-magnetic
type allowing them to be used near televisions, etc.
Depending on the type of TV, however, the colors on the
TV’s picture may be blotched. If so, turn the TV’s power off,
then wait 15 to 30 minutes before turning the power back
on. The TV’s self-degaussing circuit will reduce the
influence on the picture. If color blotching persists, move the
speaker further away from the TV.
2The USC-C1000 is designed so that the front surface can be
faced upwards or downwards according to the place of
installation. We recommend facing it downwards when
installed in a position above the ears, upwards when
installed on the floor. Attach the included foot (cork approx.
2 mm thick) to adjust.

2When installing the USC-A1000 on a table, etc., attach four
of the included foot (cork approx. 2 mm thick) to the four
corners of the bottom of the speaker (see the diagram
below). If the bass seems unnaturally emphasized when the
speakers are installed directly on the floor, place the
speakers on concrete blocks or other hard surfaces.
When installing the speakers on stands, use the mount
screws included with the stands and tighten them
securely so that there is no looseness in the mount
holes (nuts) on the bottoms of the speakers.

2Using the USC-A1000 suspended on a wall
The USC-A1000 can be used suspended on a wall, using the
wall mount hole on the rear of the speaker. To do so,
suspend the speaker by catching a screw, etc., stuck in the
wall in the hole in the wall mount hook (see the above
diagram). Be sure the wall is strong enough to support the
weight of the speaker.
Note that Denon will accept no responsibility for injuries or
accidents resulting from the speakers falling, etc., due to
improper installation or mounting.
NOTES:
• For safety, do not place objects on top of the speakers or lean objects against them.
• The speakers may fall if force is applied to their sides.
This could cause injury or serious accident. Be sufficiently careful.
• Fasten the speaker cords in place to prevent the risk of catching the cords on your hands or feet and causing the speakers to
fall.
