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
Dolby Digital EX*
Dolby Digital EX is newly introduced surround encoding format as an extension of multi-channel Dolby Digital, designed to add an extra surround channel to Dolby Digital 5.1-channel. By using a matrix encoding/decoding method, additional “surround back” channel signal is encoded (and decoded) in both the left and right surround channel signals.
DTS-ES Extended Surround (DTS-ES)**
DTS-ES is another new format developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., adding a surround back channel on the basis of DTS Digital Surround.
Dolby Pro Logic II*
Dolby Pro Logic II converts all 2-channel stereo software, especially Dolby Surround encoded software, into 5-channel (plus subwoofer) signals. It reproduces realistic Surround sounds approaching to Dolby Digital 5.1-channel. Dolby Pro Logic II has two modes to reproduce—Movie mode and Music mode.
Neo:6**
Neo:6 can reproduce realistic Surround fields by converting 2-channel stereo software into 6-channel (plus subwoofer) signals. Neo:6 has two modes to reproduce—Neo:6 Cinema and Neo:6 Music.
DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)
Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience recreation of existing theaters and halls. Thanks to the high­performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity memory, you can enjoy 5.1-channel surround by playing 2-channel or multi-channel software.
Precautions
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.
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
• 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 unit since there are no user serviceable parts inside.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your JVC dealer.
Multi-channel headphone virtual surround sound—3D HEADPHONE
The built-in headphone virtual surround system is compatible with Multi-channel software like Dolby Digital, DTS Digital Surround, etc. Thanks to the new signal processing algorithms used by the high-performance DSP, you can enjoy a natural surround sound through the headphones.
COMPU LINK/TEXT 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.

This section explains how to connect audio/video components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the power supply.
Before Installation
General Precautions
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.
Locations
Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from moisture.
The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚C and 35˚C.
Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor ventilation could cause overheating and damage the receiver.
Handling the receiver
Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.
Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or
cabinet.
Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.

Outdoor single vinyl-covered wire (not supplied)
Notes:
If the AM loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl,
remove the vinyl by twisting it as shown in the diagram.
Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other
terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This could cause poor reception.
If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire
(not supplied) to the AM EXT terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna connected.)
You can connect the following speakers:
Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.
One pair of surround speakers to enjoy the surround effect.
One surround back speaker or one pair of surround back speakers
to enjoy 6.1-channel sound reproduction.
One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to emphasize human voices).
One subwoofer to enhance the bass.
IMPORTANT:
After connecting the speakers listed above, set the speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible Surround and DSP effect. For details, see page 22.
CAUTION:
Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

If your video components have S-video (Y/C-separation) and/or component video (Y, P
B/CB, PR/CR) terminals, connect them using
an S-video cable (not supplied) and/or component video cable (not supplied). By using these jacks, you can get a better picture quality in the orderComponent video > S-video > Composite video.

IMPORTANT:
This receiver is equipped with the following video jacks—composite video, S-video and component video jacks. You can use any of the three to connect a video component. However, the video signals from one type of these input jacks are
output only through the video output jacks of the same type.
Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through the video jacks of the different type, you cannot record the picture. In addition, if the TV and a playing video component are connected to the receiver through the video jacks of the different type, you cannot view the playback picture on the TV.

Connecting the Power Cord
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have been made.
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables and the antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. We recommend that you use a coaxial cable to connect the antenna, since it is well-shielded against interference.
Note:
The preset settings such as preset channels and sound adjustment may be erased in a few days in the following cases:
When you unplug the power cord.When a power failure occurs.
CAUTIONS:
Do not plug in before setting the voltage selector switch on the rear of the unit and all connection procedures are complete.
Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging
the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.
Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first. When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.
1. On the back of the remote control, remove the battery cover.
2. Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F)
3. Replace the cover.
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.
Note:
After replacing the batteries, set the manufacturers’ codes again (see page 54).
CAUTION:
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:
• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may differ in voltage.
Always replace both batteries at the same time.
Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.
