AV1 Getting Started

Complementing its audio performance, the AV1 features two broadcast-quality video switchers. A wide-bandwidth component video switcher accepts analog component or RGB video signals, while a composite and S-video switcher accepts high-quality NTSC, PAL or SECAM video signals. The component video switcher can pass high-definition TV (HDTV) signals, as well as standard-defini-

tion TV signals. Both switchers are designed to pass video signals without alteration or degradation.

Built to professional standards, the AV1 is designed to serve as the control center in any high-quality home theater. The most demand- ing enthusiast will be impressed with its unique combination of power, performance, flexibility and technological sophistication.
