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.

ENGLISH

NOTE:

• Select the speaker size not by the physical size of the speaker
but by the speaker’s capacity to reproduce low frequencies of
100 Hz or less. If you do not know, determine the best setting by
comparing the sound when the setting is set to “Small” and
“Large”, keeping the volume low enough to prevent damage to
the speaker.

NOTE:

• Select “Large” or “Small” not according to the actual size of the
speaker but according to the speaker’s capacity for playing low
frequency (approximately 100 Hz and below) signals. If you do
not know, try comparing the sound at both settings (setting the
volume to a level low enough so as not to damage the speakers)
to determine the proper setting.

Parameters

Large…… Select this when using speakers that can fully reproduce

low sounds of below 100 Hz.

Small…… Select this when using speakers that do not provide

sufficient volume for playing low frequencies of 100 Hz
and less. When this setting is made, frequencies below
the frequency set at the subwoofer frequency setting

are assigned to the subwoofer.
None…… Select this when no speakers are installed.
Yes/No…. Select “Yes” when a subwoofer is installed, “No” when

a subwoofer is not installed.

If the subwoofer has sufficient low frequency playback capacity,
good sound can be achieved even when “Small” is set for the
front, center and surround speakers.
For the majority of speaker system configurations, using the
SMALL setting for all five main speakers and Subwoofer On
with a connected subwoofer will yield the best results.

Subwoofer (SW FREQ.) frequency

• For the subwoofer frequency at the speaker setting screen, set
the bass crossover frequency for playback from the subwoofer.

• Select “80 Hz”, “120 Hz”, “150 Hz” or “180 Hz” (-6 dB for
each). Bass sound below these frequencies is played from the
subwoofer.
(This is set to “150 Hz” by factory default.)

Assignment of low frequencies

• In the Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic
modes, the low frequency signals for channels whose speaker
settings are set to “Small” are assigned to the subwoofer. The
low frequencies of channels set to “Large” are played from
those channels.
(If set to “120 Hz”, channels set to “Small” play sounds of 120
Hz and greater, while bass frequencies of under 120 Hz are
played from the subwoofer.)

• In surround modes other than the ones listed above, low
frequencies below the frequency set at the subwoofer frequency
setting are played from the subwoofer regardless of whether the
speakers are set to “Large” or “Small”.

• Set the subwoofer frequency according to the low frequency
playback abilities of your speakers and subwoofer.

Subwoofer mode

• The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when “LARGE” is set
for the front speakers and “YES” is set for the subwoofer in the

“SPEAKER CONFIGURATION” settings.

• When the “LFE+MAIN” playback mode is selected, the low

frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced
simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel.
In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more
uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape
of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual
volume of the low frequency range.

• Selection of the “LFE ” play mode will play the low frequency
signal range of the channel selected with “LARGE” from that
channel only. Therefore, the low frequency signal range that are
played from the subwoofer channel are only the low frequency
signal range of LFE (only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal
playback) and the channel specified as “SMALL” in the setup
menu.

• Select the play mode that provides bass reproduction with body.

• When the subwoofer is set to “YES”, bass sound is output from

the subwoofer regardless of the subwoofer mode setting in
surround modes other than Dolby/DTS.

DOLBY / DTS SURROUND

Surround

This unit is equipped with a digital signal processing circuit that lets you play program sources in the surround mode to achieve the same sense
of presence as in a movie theater.

Dolby Surround
(1) Dolby Digital (Dolby Surround AC-3)

Dolby Digital is the multi-channel digital signal format developed by Dolby Laboratories.
Dolby Digital consists of up to “5.1” channels - front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right, and an additional channel exclusively
reserved for additional deep bass sound effects (the Low Frequency Effects – LFE – channel, also called the “.1” channel, containing bass
frequencies of up to 120 Hz).
Unlike the analog Dolby Pro Logic format, Dolby Digital’s main channels can all contain full range sound information, from the lowest bass, up
to the highest frequencies – 22 kHz. The signals within each channel are distinct from the others, allowing pinpoint sound imaging, and Dolby
Digital offers tremendous dynamic range from the most powerful sound effects to the quietest, softest sounds, free from noise and distortion.

Please refer to the instruction manual of the adapter when making connection.

2 To play in Dolby Digital Surround on the ADV-M71, set “DVD SUTUP” – “AUDIO SETUP” – “DIGITAL OUT” to “Normal” in the setup.

(The factory default is “Normal”.)

(2) Dolby Pro Logic II

• Dolby Pro Logic II is a new multi-channel playback format developed by Dolby Laboratories using feedback logic steering technology and

offering improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic circuits.

• Dolby Pro Logic II can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround ( ) but also regular stereo sources into five channels

(front left, front right, center, surround left and surround right) to achieve surround sound.

• Whereas with conventional Dolby Pro Logic the surround channel playback frequency band was limited, Dolby Pro Logic II offers a wider

band range (20 Hz to 20 kHz or greater). In addition, the surround channels were monaural (the surround left and right channels were the
same) with previous Dolby Pro Logic, but Dolby Pro Logic II they are played as stereo signals.

•

Various parameters can be set according to the type of source and the contents, so it is possible to achieve optimum decoding (see page 60).

Sources recorded in Dolby Surround
These are sources in which three or more channels of surround have been recorded as two channels of signals using Dolby Surround
encoding technology.
Dolby Surround is used for the sound tracks of movies recorded on DVDs, LDs and video cassettes to be played on stereo VCRs, as well
as for the stereo broadcast signals of FM radio, TV, satellite broadcasts and cable TV.
Decoding these signals with Dolby Pro Logic makes it possible to achieve multi-channel surround playback. The signals can also be played
on ordinary stereo equipment, in which case they provide normal stereo sound.

There are two types of DVD Dolby surround recording signals.

DTS Digital Surround

Digital Theater Surround (also called simply DTS) is a multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems.
DTS offers the same “5.1” playback channels as Dolby Digital (front left, front right and center, surround left and surround right) as well as the
stereo 2-channel mode. The signals for the different channels are fully independent, eliminating the risk of deterioration of sound quality due to
interference between signals, crosstalk, etc.
DTS features a relatively higher bit rate as compared to Dolby Digital (1234 kbps for CDs and LDs, 1536 kbps for DVDs) so it operates with a
relatively low compression rate. Because of this the amount of data is great, and when DTS playback is used in movie theaters, a separate CD­ROM synchronized with the film is played.
With LDs and DVDs, there is of course no need for an extra disc; the pictures and sound can be recorded simultaneously on the same disc, so
the discs can be handled in the same way as discs with other formats.
Other media include CDs recorded in DTS. These are the same discs as conventional CDs (recorded in 2 channels) but include 5.1 channel
surround signals. They do not include images, but they do permit surround playback on the ADV-M71 and on CD players.DTS surround track
playback offers the same intricate, grand sound as in a movie theater, right in your own listening room.

1 DTS signals are recorded in the same way on CDs and LDs as PCM signals. Because of this, the un-decoded DTS signals are output as

random “hissy” noise from the CD or LD player’s analog outputs. If this noise is played with the amplifier set at a very high volume, it
may possibly cause damage to the speakers. To avoid this, be sure to switch the input mode to “AUTO” or “DTS” before playing CDs or
LDs recorded in DTS. Also, never switch the input mode to “ANALOG” or “PCM” during playback. The same is true when playing CDs
and LDs recorded in DTS on the ADV-M71 or on LD/DVD compatible players. With DVDs, the DTS signals are recorded with a special
recording method so there is no problem. For DVDs, the DTS signals are recorded in a special way so this problem does not occur.

2 The signals provided at the digital outputs of a CD or LD player may undergo some sort of internal signal processing (output level

adjustment, sampling frequency conversion, etc.). In this case the DTS-encoded signals may be processed erroneously, in which case they
cannot be decoded by this unit, or may only produce noise. Before playing DTS signals for the first time, turn down the master volume to
a low level, start playing the DTS disc, then check whether the DTS indicator on this unit (see page 45) lights before turning up the master
volume.

3 To play in DTS Digital Surround on the ADV-M71, set “DVD SETUP” — “AUDIO SETUP” — “DIGITAL OUT” to “Normal” in the setup.

Dolby Virtual Speaker

Dolby Virtual Speaker technology uses proprietary technology of Dolby Laboratories to create a virtual surround sound field using only two
speakers for the front channels, allowing the user to experience sound as if surround speakers were actually being used.

2 Features of Dolby Virtual Speaker sound

B Accurate surround sound field positioning

The virtual surround speakers are positioned at 105° to the left and 105° to the right.

B Multi-channel programs played according to the producer’s intentions

The sound of the different channels is played in the position set upon mixing. For example, sound set at the rear left is heard from the rear
left.

B Stereo programs played in surround

The Dolby Pro Logic II circuit is used together with the Dolby Virtual Speaker circuitry to create a rich virtual surround sound field with stereo
programs as well.

B Selecting the listening mode

Two listening modes are provided: Reference and Wide.

: 2 front channels
: Virtual sound field created with the Dolby

Virtual Speaker mode

Reference mode Wide mode

With the ADV-M71, playback in the Dolby Virtual Speaker mode is possible with other speaker configurations as well.

• 3 speakers (2 front channels + center) : Reference/Wide modes

• 4 speakers (2 front channels + 2 surround channels) : Wide mode

• 5 speakers (2 front channels + center + 2 surround channels) : Wide mode

Dolby Headphone

Dolby Headphone is a 3D sound technology developed jointly by Dolby Laboratories and Lake Technology of Australia achieving surround sound
with regular headphones.
Normally when using headphones all the sounds are sounded in the head, making it uncomfortable to listen with headphones for long periods of
time. Dolby Headphone simulates speaker playback in a room and positions the sound sources to the front or the sides, outside of the head,
achieving a powerful sound similar to that of a movie theater or home theater. This technology is aimed mainly at multi-channel audio or video
equipment including Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoding functions and operates inside a high performance digital signal processing
chip (DSP).
The Dolby Headphone mode can be used not only with multi-channel sources but also with stereo programs.

recorded in Dolby Surround is recreated faithfully.

NOTE:

• If noise is generated for interactive and other high bit rate
sources when playing DVDs or D.AUX digital input signals in the
Dolby Virtual Speaker mode, set “LINE-1/LINE-2 REC OUT”
under “[6] Function settings” at “SYSTEM SETUP” on pages 38
to “Off”.
(When this is done, analog recording in the Dolby Virtual Speaker
mode is not possible.)

(2) Playing in the DENON original surround modes

• This unit is equipped with a high performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) which uses digital signal processing to synthetically recreate the
sound field. One of 6 preset surround modes can be selected according to the program source and the parameters can be adjusted according
to the conditions in the listening room to achieve a more realistic, powerful sound. These surround modes can also be used for program sources
not recorded in Dolby Surround Pro Logic or Dolby Digital.

(3) Playback using the Dolby Headphone mode

• The ADV-M71 is equipped with the Dolby Headphone mode, a technology developed jointly by Dolby Laboratories and Lake Technology for
achieving 3D sound over regular headphones.

• The Dolby Headphone mode is set when headphones are connected to the ADV-M71’s headphones jack.

• There are actually four Dolby Headphone modes creating different sound field effects: DH1, DH2, DH3 and Bypass (normal stereo playback).

• The Dolby Headphone mode is compatible with Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel sources. With 2-channel sources, playback in the Cinema,

Music 1 and Music 2 modes can be selected with the 2-channel mode setting.

Set the various surround parameters.

2 Recording

When playing digital input sources, including function DVDs, signals
encoded in the Dolby Headphone mode are output from the recording
output terminals and can be recorded on other recording devices.

q Connect headphones to the headphones jack.
w Signals encoded in the Dolby Headphone mode are output from

the recording output terminals (in analog).

e Select the parameters, set the desired mode and start recording.

NOTES:

• Dolby Headphone processing makes the analog recording output
level lower than the normal stereo recording output level.

• Do not change the parameters or unplug the headphones during
recording. Doing so will cause interruptions in the recorded sound.

• Dolby Headphone signals cannot be recorded during playback of
analog sources. The analog input signals are output as such from
the recording output terminals.

(4) Playing in the Auto Decode Mode (only with multi-channel speaker settings)

• The auto decode mode can be selected when the ADV-M71 is used in combination with a subwoofer with built-in amplifier and power amplifier,
center or surround speaker system and a multi-channel speaker configuration (5.1 channels, etc.) is set.

• T o make the 5.1-channel setting, set the speakers to “5.1CH SURROUND” in the quick system setup and select “Room Setting” and “Listening
Position”. (See pages 31 to 32.)

• In the auto decode mode, multi-channel playback of multi-channel sources (Dolby Digital or DTS) can be performed automatically according to
the format of the input signals.

• For 2-channel sources as well, playback is possible in the Auto Stereo, Dolby Pro Logic II Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Music or Dolby Pro Logic
mode, as set by the 2-channel mode setting. (Two channels of stereo signals are played in the Auto Stereo mode. In other modes playback is
multi-channel.)

[1] Dolby Digital and DTS surround playback (for digital inputs only)

• The applicable sources and procedures are the same as those described at “[1] Playing Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound” under “(1)
Playing in the Dolby Virtual Speaker mode”.

• At step 3, set the surround mode to “AUTO DECODE”. The sound is played according to the format of the input signals.

• At step 6 there are no Dolby Virtual Speaker mode surround parameters.

[2] 2-channel mode setting

• With the auto decode mode, one of four multi-channel playback modes, namely stereo 2-channel playback in the Auto Stereo mode (factory
default), Dolby Pro Logic

“Auto Stereo” mode cannot be selected for with functions only analog inputs (TUNER, LINE-1, LINE-2). To play such signals in stereo, set the

surround mode to “STEREO”. (See page 45.)

• Operations are the same as those described at “[2] 2-channel mode settings” under “(1) Playing in the Dolby Virtual Speaker mode” on page

52.

• At step 1, set the surround mode to “AUTO DECODE”.

• The 2-channel modes selectable at step 3 are as follows:

II Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Music and Dolby Pro Logic, can be selected and set for 2-channel sources.

Auto Stereo can be selected when the function is set to DVD or D.AUX.

• For the 2-channel mode surround parameters in the auto decode mode, refer to “Surround parameters (5)” (auto decode 2-channel mode).

59

ENGLISH

AUTO-ST (auto stereo) mode

2-channel sources are played in 2-channel stereo.
When this mode is selected in the auto decode mode, multi-channel sources (DVD, BS digital, etc.) are played in the multi-channel mode,
while 2-channel sources (CDs, etc.) are automatically played in stereo.

PL

II CINEMA / PLII MUSIC / PRO LOGIC mode

Even 2-channel sources undergo Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Digital Pro-Logic II processing is applied to 2-channel sources as well to play them in the multi-channel mode.
When this mode is selected in the auto decode mode, multi-channel sources (DVD, BS digital, etc.) are played in the multi-channel mode,
and 2-channel sources (CDs, etc.) are also automatically processed with Dolby Digital Pro-Logic II and played in the multi-channel mode.

II CINEMA (Dolby Pro Logic II CINEMA) mode

• PL

This mode is suited for playing movies recorded in Dolby Surround as well as regular sources recorded in stereo. A high precision decoder
decodes the signals into 5 channels, resulting in uniform 360 degree surround sound even with 2-channel sources.
The MUSIC mode may be more effective for sources containing a high ratio of stereo music. Try both and choose the most effective
mode.

II MUSIC (Dolby Pro Logic II MUSIC) mode

• PL

This mode is suited for surround playback of stereo music signals. The inverted phase signals (the reverberation component of the music
signals contains a high ratio of these) are played from the surround channel, and at the same time the frequency response of the surround
channel is optimized to achieve a natural sound with a sense of expansion.
With music signals, the sound field expansion differs greatly according to the type of music, the recording conditions (live, etc.) and the
contents of the signal source. Because of this, the MUSIC mode includes optional parameters for further adjusting the sound field.

• PANORAMA

The front stereo sound field image is extended to the surround channel.
This is effective if under normal conditions the stereo image is narrow and the surround effect seems weak.

• DIMENSION

This shifts the center of the sound field image to the front or surround side.
The playback balance of the different channels can be adjusted regardless of the amount of reverberation component in the source. If
the sound field image is biased towards the front or surround side, this optional parameter can be used to correct it.

• CENTER WIDTH

This adjusts the method of playback of the center signal component from the center channel only to the front channel only.
When the center channel is played in a way prioritizing separation, the position of the front channel sound field is clearer but the overall
sound field image concentrates at the center and the relationship between the different channels seems weaker. This parameter can
be adjusted to improve the sense of stability of the sound field image and achieve natural horizontal expansion.

• PRO LOGIC (Dolby Pro Logic) mode

This is the conventional Dolby Pro Logic compatible mode. In this mode sources recorded in Dolby Surround are decoded with a
playback image faithful to the original recording.

Surround parameters (5) (2-channel mode)

II processing and are played in the multi-channel mode.

(6) MP3 WMA Playback

[1]Listening to Recorded MP3 CD/CD-R/CD-RW

2 There are many music distribution sites on the internet from which music files in MP3 format can be downloaded. Music downloaded as

instructed on the site and written onto a CD-R/RW disc can be played on the ADV-M71.

If music recorded on commercially available music CDs is converted on a computer into MP3 files using an MP3 encoder (conversion software),
the data on a 12 cm CD is reduced into about 1/10 the amount of the original data. Thus, when written in MP3 format, the data of about 10
music CDs can fit onto a single CD-R/RW disc. A single CD-R/RW disc can contain over 100 tracks.

Values when 5-minute tracks are converted with a standard bit rate of 128 kbps into MP3 files and using a CD-R/RW disc with a capacity
of 650 MB.

Load the CD-R/RW disc on which the MP3 format music
files have been written into this unit. (See page 40.)

1

• When the disc is loaded in the ADV-M71, the disc
information screen appears.

• If there are multiple folders, proceed to step 2.

• If there are no folders on the disc (if the disc only
contains MP3 files), proceed to step 3.

All the folders recorded on the disc are displayed.
(The folders are not displayed by layer.)

Use the • and ª cursor buttons to select the folder
containing the file(s) you want to play, then press the

2

ENTER button.

To change the folder

Use the •cursor button to select “ROOT” at the
upper right of the screen, then press the ENTER
button. The screen in step 1 reappears. Select the

NOTES:

• The ADV-M71 is compatible with the “MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3” standards (sampling frequency of 32, 44.1 or 48 kHz). It is not compatible
with such other standards as “MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3”, “MPEG-2.5 Audio Layer 3”, MP1, MP2, etc.

• It may not be possible to play some CD-R/RW discs due to disc properties, dirt, warping, etc.

• The digital signals output when playing MP3 files are MP3 signals converted into PCM, regardless of whether the audio output presenting
is set to “normal” or “PCM conversion”. The signals are output with the same sampling frequency as that of the music source.

• In general, the higher an MP3 file’s bit rate, the better the sound quality. On the ADV-M71, we recommend using MP3 files recorded with
bit rates of 128 kbps or greater.

• MP3 files may not be played in the expected order, since the writing software may change the position of the folders and the order of
the files when writing them on the CD-R/RW.

• Manual search and programmed playback are not possible with MP3 discs.

• When writing MP3 files on CD-R/RW discs, select “ISO9660 level 1” as the writing software format. This may not be possible with some
types of writing software. For details, refer to the writing software’s usage instructions.

• With the ADV-M71 it is possible to display folder names and file names on the screen like titles. The ADV-M71 can display up to 11
