If this happens, take the following steps:

• Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV.

• Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit’s
power cord and input/output connection cords.

• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor
antennas or 300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using

outdoor antennas and 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cables.

For heat dispersal, leave at least 10 cm/4 inch of space between
the top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

DVD SURROUND RECEIVER UNIT

• Switching the input function when input jacks are not

connected

A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched
when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either
turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components
to the input jacks.

• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER

terminals

The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks and SPEAKER terminals
include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are
greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is
turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up is
changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will
be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait
until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

4

• Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state, the
apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage.
Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for,
say, a vacation.

FEATURES

The ADV-M71 combines an AV amplifier and DVD player, the core
components of a home theater system, into a single compact,
stylish body. The system takes up little space, and the aluminum
front panel and half mirror of the display make for an elegant
design that blends in nicely with the décor in your room.

1. 2-channel power amplifier with Dolby Virtual Speaker
compatibility

The ADV-M71 is equipped with two 35W (6 Ω/ohms 1kHz, T.H.D.
10%) power amplifiers that make it compatible with new Dolby
Virtual Speaker technology for recreating a 5.1-channel
environment virtually using a 2-channel configuration. (Dolby
Virtual Speaker is an proprietary technology of Dolby Laboratories.)
A high performance digital signal processor enables playback of
Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel surround signals in the Dolby
Virtual Speaker mode. Surround sound can be achieved with the
Dolby Virtual Speaker mode for CDs and other 2-channel sources
in combination with the Dolby Pro Logic

2. 3.1-channel pre-out terminals allowing expansion into a 5.1­channel surround system

When used in combination with a commercially available
subwoofer with built-in amplifier and power amplifier, the ADV­M71 can be expanded into a 5.1-channel surround system. The
ADV-M71 not only recreates an accurate sound field for multi­channel sources, it is also compatible with wide mode playback in
the Dolby Virtual Speaker mode.

3. Dolby Pro Logic

The ADV-M71 is equipped with a Dolby Pro Logic
expanding sound field playback for Dolby Surround and stereo
music sources.

4. DENON’s unique sound field simulation using the DSP

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING DISCS

ENGLISH

Discs

Only the discs including the marks shown on page 6 can be played on
the ADV-M71.
Note, however, that discs with special shapes (heart-shaped discs,
hexagonal discs, etc.) cannot be played on the ADV-M71. Do not
attempt to play such discs, as they may damage the player.

Holding Discs

Avoid touching the surface of discs when loading and unloading them.

Be careful not to get
fingerprints on the signal
surface (the side which
shines in rainbow colors).

Cleaning Discs

Fingerprints or dirt on the disc may lower sound and picture quality

2

or cause breaks in playback. Wipe off fingerprints or dirt.
Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to

2

wipe off fingerprints or dirt.

Wipe gently from the middle
outwards.

Do not wipe with a circular
motion.

Cautions on Handling Discs

• Do not get fingerprints, grease or dirt on discs.

• Be especially careful not to scratch discs when removing them
from their cases.

• Do not bend discs.

• Do not heat discs.

• Do not enlarge the center hole.

• Do not write on the labeled (printed) side with a ball-point pen or a
pencil.

• Water droplets may form on the surface if the disc is moved
suddenly from a cold place to a warm one. Do not use a hairdryer,
etc., to dry the disc.

Cautions on Storing Discs

• Always eject discs after playing them.

• Keep discs in their cases to protect them from dust, scratches and
warping.

• Do not put discs in the following places:

1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time

2. Humid or dusty places

3. Places exposed to heat from heaters, etc.

Cautions on Loading Discs

• Only load one disc at a time. Loading one disc on top of another
may result in damage or scratch the discs.

• Load 8 cm discs securely in the disc guide, without using an
adapter. If the disc is not properly loaded, it may slip out of the
guide and block the disc tray.

• Be careful not to let your fingers get caught when the disc tray is
closing.

• Do not place anything but discs in the disc tray.

• Do not load cracked or warped discs or discs that have been fixed
with adhesive, etc.

• Do not use discs on which the adhesive part of cellophane tape or
glue used to attach the label is exposed, or discs with traces of tape
or labels that have been peeled off. Such discs may get stuck inside
the player, resulting in damage.

NOTE:

• Do not use record spray or antistatic. Also do not use volatile
chemicals such as benzene or thinner.

ENGLISH

• The audio and video signals for the function selected on the set are output.

Audio output signals

• The tuner and DVD audio playback signals and the audio signals input to the AUDIO INPUT jacks are output.

• When Dolby Digital and DTS DVD are played, the audio signals are converted to 2-channel signals before being output.

• The audio output level is fixed. If you do not wish to play the sound on the connected TV, turn the TV’s volume down to the minimum.

Video output signals (Function “DVD” only)

• The DVD video playback signals is output.

• The selection of the VIDEO, S-VIDEO and RGB video signals is set at “AV1 VIDEO OUTPUT” system setup item. (By default all are set to
“VIDEO”. See page 29.)

NOTES:

The factory default is “PAL”. When in the stop mode with the

• Connect this unit video outputs to the TV either directly. Do

not connect it via a VCR (video cassette recorder). Some
discs contain copy prohibit signals. If such discs are played
via a VCR, the copy prohibit system may cause disturbance
in the picture.

• Set the “TV TYPE” in “VIDEO SETUP” in “DVD SETUP” to
comply with your TV’s video format. When the TV is PAL
formated, set to PAL. (See page 29.)

function set to “DVD”, the setting can also be switched with the
“NTSC/PAL” button on the remote control unit. If the setting

does not match your TV’s video format, switch it from the
remote control unit, then set “TV TYPE” under “VIDEO SETUP”

• Linear PCM audio is the signal recording format used for music CDs.
While the signals are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bit for music CDs, for DVDs they are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bit to 96 kHz/24 bit, providing higher
sound quality than music CDs.

2 About the LINE-1 and LINE-2 analog recording outputs

When the DVD or the D.AUX digital input is selected:

• Dolby Digital, DTS and PCM digital signals are automatically converted to 2-channel stereo signals before being output (except when in the
Dolby Headphone mode) and can be recorded in analog. (For what happens in the Dolby Headphone mode, see below.)

When TUNER, LINE-1 or LINE-2 is selected:

• The selected analog audio signals from the tuner or from the device connected to the LINE-1 or LINE-2 analog input terminals (IN) are output
unchanged, regardless of the ADV-M71’s input mode or surround mode. (The same is true for the device connected to the D.AUX terminals
when “LINE-2” under “⁄0 SETTING UP THE SYSTEM – (3) Detailed system setup – [6] Function settings” is set to “D.AUX”.)

Recording output during playback of a DVD or D.AUX digital input source in the Dolby Headphone mode:

• In the Dolby Headphone mode with a DVD or a digital input selected, the Dolby Headphone mode analog audio signals currently being played
are output and can be recorded in analog. (See pages 58 and 59.)

Cautions during analog recording of DVDs or digital input sources:

• Do not switch the ADV-M71’s input mode, surround mode or surround parameters during recording. Doing so will interrupt the sound being

recorded.
We recommend setting the surround mode to “STEREO” or “DIRECT”.

• When using headphones, recording is automatically performed in the Dolby Headphone mode. Do not disconnect the headphones or

switch the headphones mode during recording.

(7) Speaker system connections

Be sure to turn the amplifier’s power off when connecting the
speaker systems.

• Use the included cables to connect the input terminals on the back
of the speaker systems (see diagram) to the amplifier’s speaker
output terminals. Connect the speaker system for the left channel
amplifier’s “L” terminals, the one for the right channel to the
amplifier’s “R” terminals, matching the polarities (“≈” and “√”
marks). Inverting the polarities will result in unnatural sound, with
the phase off or no low bass sound. Also check that all two terminal
knobs are tightly fastened.

Connections

(The red terminals on the right side are the “≈” terminals, the black
ones on the left side the “√” terminals.)

Loosen the terminals knobs, insert the cables’
core wires, then tighten the knobs.

Connecting the speaker cords

Use the included connection cords to connect the input terminals on
the backs of the speaker systems (see the diagram at the right) to the
ADV-M71’s speaker output terminals.

• Connect the speaker system for the left channel to the “L”
terminals, the speaker system for the right channel to the “R”
terminals, and be sure the polarities (“+” and “–”) are properly
interconnected.

• Note that if the polarities are inverted, the phase may be off and the
bass sound may be missing, resulting in an unnatural sound. Also
check that both the speaker terminal’s screws are tightly screwed.

Either twist the core wires
firmly or terminate the wires.

Connect to amplifier’s
“√” side. (Silver color)

Connect to amplifier’s “≈” side. (Copper color)

NOTE:

Make sure the core wires do not touch
each other.

qTurn the speaker

terminal
counterclockwis
e to loosen it.

wInsert the cord’s

eTurn clockwise to

tighten the
terminal.

Protector circuit

• This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the speakers under circumstances such as
when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently short-circuited and a large current flows, when the temperature surrounding the unit
becomes unusually high, or when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise.
When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED flashes. Should this occur, please
follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or
input cables, and wait for the unit to cool down if it is very hot. Improve the ventilation condition around the unit and switch the power back
on.
If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off
the power and contact a DENON service center.

Note on speaker impedance

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower
than the specified impedance (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 Ω/ohms) are connected. If the protector circuit is
activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set’s power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set, then
turn the power back on.

Cautions on connecting

• With this unit’s speaker outputs, signals with the reverse phase of the “+” side output terminal’s signals are also output from the “-” side
output terminal.
Do not connect to a device for switching between multiple speakers (a speaker selector or audio channel selector) or connect in ways other
than described in this manual. Doing so will result in damage.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

• The included remote control unit (RC-966) can be used to operate not only this unit but other remote control compatible DENON components
as well. In addition, the memory contains the control signals for other remote control units, so it can be used to operate non-DENON remote
control compatible products.

(1) Inserting the batteries

q Remove the remote control unit’s rear cover.

w Set three R6P/AA batteries in the battery compartment in the

indicated direction.

e Put the rear cover back on.

Notes on Batteries

• Use R6P/AA batteries in the remote control unit.

• The batteries should be replaced with new ones approximately

once a year, though this depends on the frequency of usage.

• Even if less than a year has passed, replace the batteries with new
ones if the set does not operate even when the remote control unit
is operated nearby the set. (The included battery is only for verifying
operation. Replace it with a new battery as soon as possible.)

• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the proper
direction, following the “≈” and “√” marks in the battery
compartment.

• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:

• Do not use a new battery together with an old one.

• Do not use two different types of batteries.

• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in

flames.

• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit when you do
not plan to use it for an extended period of time.

• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe the fluid off the inside
of the battery compartment and insert new batteries.

• When replacing the batteries, have the new batteries ready and
insert them as quickly as possible.

(2) Using the remote control unit

Approx. 7m / 22 feet

30°

30°

20

• Point the remote control unit at the remote sensor on the main unit
as shown on the diagram.

• The remote control unit can be used from a straight distance of
approximately 7 meters/22 feet from the main unit, but this
distance will be shorter if there are obstacles in the way or if the
remote control unit is not pointed directly at the remote sensor.

• The remote control unit can be operated at a horizontal angle of up
to 30 degrees with respect to the remote sensor.

NOTES:

• It may be difficult to operate the remote control unit if the remote
sensor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial light.

• Do not press buttons on the main unit and remote control unit
simultaneously. Doing so may result in malfunction.

• Neon signs or other devices emitting pulse-type noise nearby may
result in malfunction, so keep the set as far away from such
devices as possible.

• The included remote control unit (RC-966) can be used to operate
not only the ADV-M71 but also to perform system operations for
the D-M31 series and to operate other remote control compatible
DENON products. In addition, the remote control operation codes
of other major brands of TVs and video decks are also stored in the
remote control unit, so the unit can be used to operate these TVs
and video decks as well.

Input the combination of speakers in your system and
their corresponding sizes (SMALL for regular speakers,
LARGE for full-size, full-range) to automatically set the

At the listening position, listen to the test tones output
from the different speakers and set so that the playback
level from the different speakers is equal.

or RGB signals will be output from the AV1 SCART terminals.

The power automatically switches to standby if no
operation is performed for 30 minutes while in the stop
mode with the function set to DVD.

Set the LINE-1 and LINE-2 function names and turn the
analog recording output (REC OUT) on or off.

Set the audio language, subtitle language and disc menu
language for when playing discs.

Set the wallpaper for the setup and operation screens.

Set the screen size and video system for the TV being used.

Set the digital audio signal format and the linear PCM
sampling frequency and bit conversion.

Make the playback restriction setting for DVDs with
restricted viewing and set the password required for
changing the setting.

and the display lights.

Green

Main unit Remote control unit

Several seconds are required from the time the power button is
pressed until the power turns on. This is due to the built-in muting
circuit that turns off (mutes) the sound when the power is turned
on and off. The power indicator flashes green while the muting
circuit is activated.
Even when the power button has been pressed again and the
power has been set to the standby mode, power is still supplied to
some circuits. When leaving home or traveling, be sure to unplug
the power cord from the power outlet. In the standby mode, the
power indicator is lit red. The indicator is orange when the timer is
set.

Press the SETUP button to display the
