(9) IEEE 1394 connections

The simple connection of one IEEE 1394 cable permits high quality digital transfer of the following between devices having IEEE 1394 connectors: the audio of DVD video, DVD audio that up until now could only be connected by 5-conductor audio cable in an analog connection, or Super Audio CD and other multi-channel audio. (unless DENON LINK connections)

(IEEE 1394 is an international standard established by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. of the U.S.)

AV amplifier with IEEE 1394 terminals

2IEEE1394 settings:

• For IEEE1394 connection, set “IEEE1394” under ”DIGITAL INTERFACE SETUP”at “SETUP” to ”ON”. (See pages 38 ~ 42.)

✽The DVD-A1XV’s IEEE 1394 mode is designed based on IEEE Std. 1394a-2000, Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus.

✽IEEE 1394 network

The following types of connections can be made between devices handling IEEE 1394 audio signals (A&M protocol): q Daisy chain connections

Connect the sets in series using a single IEEE 1394 cord. Up to 15 sets can be connected. w Tree (tower) connections

Connect the sets in parallel and in series using a single IEEE 1394 cord. Up to 63 sets can be connected.

Copyright Protection System

To play back through an IEEE 1394 connection the audio of Super Audio CD or DVD (except for discs that may be copied freely), both the player and the amplifier are required to support a copyright protection system called DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection). DTCP is copy protection technology comprising data encryption and the authentication of the remote device. This unit supports DTCP. Please see the operation manual of your amplifier for information about your amplifier.
