Introduction
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to obtain the best possible performance
from your unit, and retain this manual for future reference.
Features
CC (Compensative Compression) converter
CC 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 any source.
(See page 17 for details.)
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.
Compatible with various audio formats including
DTS 96/24
This unit allow you to enjoy a audio format such as Dolby Digital
EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS-ES, DTS Neo:6, and DTS 96/24.
· This unit is also compatible with Dual Mono signals recorded in
Dolby Digital and DTS discs.
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 multi-channel surround sound by playing
2-channel or multi-channel software according to the speaker
setting.
Multi-channel headphone virtual surround
sound--3D Headphone mode
The built-in headphone virtual surround system is compatible with
Multi-channel software like Dolby Digital, DTS Surround, etc.
Thanks to the signal processing algorithms used by the high-
performance DSP, you can enjoy a natural surround sound through
the headphones.
COMPU LINK/AV COMPU LINK remote control
systems
These COMPU LINK remote control systems allow you to
operate other JVC's audio/video components from this receiver.
Precautions
General
· Be sure your hands are dry.
· Turn the power off to all components.
· Read the manuals supplied with the components you are going to
connect.
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.
Locations
· Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from
moisture and dust.
· The temperature around the receiver must be between 5°C and
35°C (23°F and 95°F).
Ventilation
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
· Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.
· Should any metallic object or liquid fall onto the unit, unplug the
unit and consult your dealer before operating any further.
· Do not expose this apparatus to rain, moisture, dripping or
splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases
shall be placed on the apparatus.
· Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or
cabinet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your
JVC dealer.
