Features
Easy operation
Great sound
Triple Tray
Here are some of the things that make your System powerful and easy to use.
o The controls and operations have been redesigned to make them very easy to use, so you can spend
your time listening to music.
• With the One Touch Operation feature of JVC’s COMPU PLAY you can turn on the System and
start the radio, the Cassette Deck, or the CD Player with a single touch.
o To get such great sound from such a compact package the System has:
• Programmed sound mode includes live surround effects D. CLUB, HALL, and STADIUM. It
also includes S.E.A (Sound Effect Amplifier) effects ROCK, CLASSIC, and POP.
o CD changer function can operate 3 discs.
• Discs can be changed during play using the TRIPLE TRA Y.

How This Manual Is Organized
In this manual we have incorporated some special features:
• Basic information that is the same for many different functions is grouped in one place, and not
repeated in each procedure. For instance, in the section on playing a CD, we do not repeat the
information about setting the volume and the sound conditions, which are discussed in the Common
Operations section.
• Name of buttons and controls are written in all capital letters like this: SOUND MODE.
The manual has a table of contents to help you quickly look up what you want to know.
We’ve enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope you will use it to enjoy the sound and many
features built into your System.

COMPU PLAY
COMPU PLAY is JVC’s feature that lets you control the most frequently used functions of the System
with a single touch.
One Touch Operation starts playing a CD, turns on the radio, plays a tape, etc. with a single press of the
play button for that function. What One Touch Operation does for you is to turn the power on, then start
the function you have specified. If the Unit is not ready, such as no CD or tape in place, the Unit still
powers on so you can insert a CD or tape.
How One Touch Operation works in each case is explained in the section dealing with that function.
The COMPU PLAY buttons are:

Sound Modes
The System has some preset sound effects that give you control of the way your music sounds, so you can
tailor it for your room and for the quality of the source. We can give you some idea of how each one
affects the music, but the only way to really tell is to try them yourself.
o The preset sound modes include modes using surround effects and modes using S.E.A. effects.
o Sound Mode effects cannot be recorded.
Surround effect modes
D. CLUB (Dance Club) Increases resonance and bass.
HALL Adds depth and brilliance to the sound, like in a concert hall.
STADIUM Adds clarity and spreads the sound, like in an outdoor stadium.
S.E.A. effect modes
ROCK Boosts low and high frequencies.
CLASSIC Set for wide and dynamic sound stereo systems.
POP Good for vocal music.
To get an effect, press the SOUND MODE button repeatedly until the Sound Mode you want appears
on the display. The frame around the S.MODE indicator lights up.
Each time you press the SOUND MODE button, the display changes
