Features

Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier

RX-D411S features the JVC-exclusive Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier. Premium-grade parts and devices, and special internal construction assure you will enjoy superior sound.

DCDi technology

DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) technology, developed by Faroudja, eliminates jagged edges generated in progressive scanning conversion. With DCDi, you can enjoy clear and smooth video images on your display. For RX-D411S, this function is applied only when the PAL or NTSC analog video signals are transmitted to the receiver.

Compatible with HDMI*

The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the standard interface for the next-generation TV. By connecting the source components, this receiver, and TV with the HDMI cables, digital video signals and audio signals (including Dolby Digital, DTS) are transmitted through the cables. You can transmit digital video signal and audio signal without AD/DA conversion with easy connection.

As RX-D411S supports up to HDMI version 1.1, this receiver can digitally receive 5.1-channel PCM with fs 96 kHz and 2- channel PCM with fs 192 kHz. (These PCM signals are referred to as “multi-channel PCM” in this instructions.) You can enjoy digital sound without deterioration. In addition, this receiver is compatible with HDCP** (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and HDCP contents can be viewed if you connect an HDCP-compatible TV to this receiver.

**HDCP is the abbreviation of “High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection,” and is the high-reliable copy control technology licensed by Digital Content Protection, LLC.

7.1 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 7.1-channel surround by playing 2-channel or multi-channel software.

Precise Surround Setup

Precise Surround Setup is a newly-developed JVC solution for quick, easy and systematic optimization of surround sound. By using Precise Surround Setup, you can enjoy the best possible surround performance. Precise Surround Setup measures the listening environment accurately with the dedicated earphone-type microphones and adjusts the speaker settings automatically.

CC (Compression Compensative) Converter

CCConverter 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 128 kHz (for fs 32 kHz signals)/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.

K2 technology

K2 technology has been designed to enable natural audio reproduction, achieving a drastic reduction in digital distortion and creating original sound ambience with high precision.

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

The seven high power amplifiers built in this receiver will generate heat inside the cabinet.

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 into the receiver, unplug the receiver 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 the top of this receiver.

•Do not disassemble the receiver since there are no user serviceable parts inside.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your JVC dealer.
