Key Specifications

JVC’s Floating Isolated Structure

From the signal input stage, JVC’s Floating Isolated
Structure features many op-amp ICs which are often
used for home audio equipments. In addition, by using
high-performance Digital Audio Amplifier Driver, only one
feedback is required to achieve noise-free original sound.
Because of the single feedback path, the amplifiers can
offer quicker response.
