Turning MASTER VOLUME on the unit or pressing VOLUME +/– on the remote control also restores the sound.

Turning Analog Direct On and Off

You can enjoy the sound quality closer to the original source by skipping the sound adjustments such as Parametric Equalizer (see page 42) and Midnight mode (see page 43). You can only adjust the volume level while Analog Direct is in use.

You have to make this setting for each analog source.

Press ANALOG DIRECT.

Each time you press the button, Analog Direct turns on and off.

When Analog Direct turns on, “ANALOG DIRECT” appears in the main display.

Notes:

This function is applied only to the analog sources.

Activating one of the Surround/THX/DSP modes will cancel Analog Direct automatically.

If you turn on Analog Direct, the following settings are canceled temporarily—Surround/THX/DSP modes (pages 45 and 52), Input Attenuator (see page 22) and CC Converter, speaker output level (page 32), Parametric Equalizer (page 42), and Midnight mode (page 43).

Turning off Analog Direct activates the above settings except the speaker output level settings.

If you turn off Analog Direct while listening to an analog source, muting time* will be a little longer. (* The period during which no sound comes out.)

JVC’s CC (Compensative Compression) 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 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 both digital and analog sources.

Press CC CONVERTER so that the CC CONVERTER lamp lights up.

Each time you press the button, CC Converter turns on and off (the lamp goes off) alternately.
