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
CC (Compression Compensative) Converter
CC Converter eliminates jitter and ripples, achieving a drastic reduction in digital distortion by processing the digital music data in 24 bit-quantization and by expanding the sampling frequency to 128 kHz (for fs 32 kHz signals)/176.4 kHz (for fs 44.1 kHz signals)/192 kHz (for fs 48 kHz signals). By using the CC Converter, you can obtain a natural sound field from any source. (See page 23 for details.)
K2 Technology
K2 Technology has been designed to enable natural audio reproduction, achieving a drastic reduction in digital distortion and creating original sound ambience with high precision.
Compatible with various audio formats including Dolby Pro Logic IIx
This receiver allows you to enjoy audio formats such as Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS-ES, DTS Neo:6, and DTS 96/24.
• This receiver is also compatible with Dual Mono signals recorded in Dolby Digital and DTS discs.
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 multi-channel surround sound by playing 2-channel or multi-channel software according to the speaker setting.
Multi-channel headphone virtual surround sound—3D Headphone mode
The built-in headphone virtual surround system is compatible with multi-channel software like Dolby Digital, DTS, etc. Thanks to the signal processing algorithms used by the high-performance DSP, you can enjoy a natural surround sound through the headphones.
Multi-room operations
You can connect two pairs of front speakers to this receiver, and use them to listen to different sources in different rooms (Zone 1 and Zone 2) at the same time.
COMPU LINK/AV COMPU LINK remote control systems
These functions allow you to operate other JVC’s audio/video components from this receiver.
Precautions
General
• 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.
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.
Multi-room operations
• Do not use the remote control outdoors or install the speakers outdoors.
• When operating the receiver from a place where you cannot see the receiver (for example, when controlling the receiver installed in the living room from the kitchen), pay attention to the following not to surprise other people: – Be careful not to turn up the volume too high when controlling
the receiver without listening to the playback sound.
– Be careful not to surprise other people with a sudden sound
coming out of the receiver when turning it on. (A sudden stop of the sound may also surprise other people.)
• If the receiver operates by itself or malfunctions, the following causes should be considered: – Interference to RF communication between the receiver and the
remote control from outside.
– The remote control is operated unintentionally. For example, a
book is placed on the remote control, possibly, depressing some of its buttons.
• If your neighbour uses the same or similar RF remote control system, the receiver may happen to receive the RF signals sent from such an RF remote control system, which could cause your receiver to be operated unintentionally. If this happens, stop using the RF rod antenna and the remote control, and consult your JVC dealer or the nearest JVC Service Center.
Location
• Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from moisture and dust.
• The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚C and 35˚C (23˚F and 95˚F).
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
• Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.
• 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 receiver or remove screws, covers, or cabinet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your JVC dealer.

When you want to operate a CD player, a CD recorder, and/or an
MD recorder using the COMPULINK remote control system (see page 51), connect the target components with both digital and analog connections (see pages 10 and 11).
When you want to operate a DVD player, a VCR, and/or a TV using
the AV COMPULINK remote control system (see page 53), connect the target components with both digital and analog connections (see pages 12 and 13).
The combination of the RF rod antenna and the IR signal transmitter allows you to use the multi-room function more conveniently. The remote control supplied with this receiver can transmit both RF and IR signal at the same time. This receiver catches the RF signals emitted from the remote control, and converts them into IR signals, then transmits the converted signals to the remote sensors on the other components through the IR signal transmitter. This means that you can control not only this receiver but also other components from Zone 2.
Setting up the RF rod antenna
The remote control supplied with this receiver can transmit RF (Radio Frequency) signals as well as IR (infrared) signals. The RF rod antenna can receive the RF signals emitted from the remote control. So, with the RF rod antenna connected, you can operate the receiver at a distance of up to 15 m (50 feet) using RF signals sent from this receiver (more than twice as far as when using IR signals). Moreover, RF signals can go through walls and other objects in the house so you need not aim at the receiver directly. However, if the antenna cannot receive signals stably, you cannot operate the receiver correctly.
• Without the RF rod antenna connected, you can operate the receiver with the remote control, aiming the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.

Notes:
The signal-reachable distance may differ depending on the operating conditions and circumstances. To improve transmitting conditions, change the distance to the receiver and the direction to transmit while operating the remote control.
To avoid a failure in the reception from the remote control, keep the connecting cables and the IR signal transmitter’s cable away from the RF rod antenna.
Setting up the IR signal transmitter
The IR signal transmitter can retransmit the IR signals. The transmitter allows you to use the AV COMPULINK remote control system, and to operate other manufacturers’ components without aiming the remote control directly at the remote sensors on the target components. In addition, the IR signal transmitter reduces the possibility of malfunction.
• The IR signal transmitter may not operate the target components depending on the operating conditions and circumstances— including the aiming angle and direction of the IR signal transmitter at the remote sensors of the target components. If this occurs, changing its aiming angle and direction at the remote sensors may solve the problem.
Connecting the Power Cord
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.
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 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.
1. Find a place where you can attach the IR signal
transmitter.
• Place the transmitter where the signal can reach the remote sensor of the target components in a direct line of sight.
• If the cord length of the IR signal transmitter is not long enough, use an extension cord (not supplied).
2. Attach the double-sided adhesive tape (supplied) to the IR signal transmitter.
