We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.

from your unit, and retain this manual for future reference.

Features

Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier

RX-D701S/RX-D702B features the JVC-exclusive Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier. Premium-grade parts and devices, and special internal construction assure you will enjoy superior sound.

USB WIRELESS

By using the USB wireless transmitter supplied with RX-D701S/ RX-D702B, sound reproduced from your PC can be transmitted to this receiver. You can choose PC as another playback source for RX-D701S/RX-D702B.

Compatible with HDMI*

The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the standard interface for the next-generation TV. By connecting the source components, this receiver, and TV with the HDMI cables, digital video signals and audio signals (including Dolby Digital, DTS) are transmitted through the cables. You can enjoy digital video and sound without AD/DA conversion with easy connection. As RX-D701S/RX-D702B supports up to HDMI version 1.1, this receiver can digitally transmit 5.1-channel PCM with sampling rates of 96 kHz and 2-channel PCM with sampling rates of 192 kHz. (These PCM signals are referred to as “multi channel PCM” in this instruction.) You can enjoy digital sound without deterioration. In addition, this receiver is compatible with HDCP** (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and HDCP contents can be viewed if you connect a HDCPcompatible TV to this receiver.

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

The seven 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 use this receiver in a bathroom or places with water.

• Do not place any containers filled with water or liquids (such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.) on top of this receiver.

• 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.

” and is the high-reliable copy control technology

7.1 channel DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)

Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience recreation of existing theatres and halls. Thanks to the highperformance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity memory, you can enjoy 7.1-channel surround by playing 2channel or multi-channel software.

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.

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.

DCDi technology

DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) technology, developed by Faroudja, eliminates jagged edges generated in progressive scan conversion. With DCDi, you can enjoy clear and smooth video images on your display. For RX-D701S/RXD702B, this function is applied only when the PAL analogue video signals are transmitted to the receiver.

Turn the knob counterclockwise.

Insert the speaker cord.

•For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers.

*When using a single speaker for the surround back speaker

You can enjoy the surround sound by one surround back speaker. When using one surround back speaker, –

set “S BACK OUT” to “S BACK OUT: 1SPK” (see page 29) and

– connect the surround back speaker to the left surround back

speaker terminal. (No sound comes from the speaker if

you connect it to the right surround back speaker terminal.)

Connecting the powered subwoofer

By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in digital software.

Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cord with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).

• Refer also to the manual supplied with your subwoofer. After connecting all the speakers and/or a subwoofer, set the

speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible surround effect. For details, see pages 23, 24, 28, and 29.

Basic settings

To obtain the best possible sound effect from Surround/DSP modes (see pages 46 to 50), you need to set up the speaker and subwoofer information after all the connections are completed. From pages 23 to 33, how to set speakers and other basic items of the receiver are explained.

Setting the speaker information automatically—Smart Surround Setup

The distance from your listening point to the speakers is one of the important elements to obtain the best possible sound effect from the Surround/DSP modes. By using Smart Surround Setup, the following are automatically calculated by one simple action—clapping hands.

• Speaker distance (compared to that of the closest speaker)

• Speaker output level (except the subwoofer)

NOTES

• Smart Surround Setup may not work properly with some speakers, or some speakers may cause a noise after Smart Surround Setup finishes. If Smart Surround Setup does not work properly, adjust the speaker distance and output level manually. See pages 29 and 37 for the manual adjustment.

• Before starting Smart Surround Setup, set the speaker information correctly (SMALL, LARGE, or NO) according to your speakers except the subwoofer (see page 28).

• When the setting is made by Smart Surround Setup, the speaker distance and output level you have set before will be inactive.

•You can see the setting process on the TV screen and the display during Smart Surround Setup. If you have turned off the display, cancel the Dimmer (see page 21); otherwise, you cannot see the information on the display.

• Smart Surround Setup will not be done correctly if you or other object blocks the sound.

• When you change your speakers, do the following procedure again.

SILENT: • The receiver detects sound from only the left

and right front speakers.

• The receiver detects no sound from the front speakers and detects sound from at least one of the other speakers.

SILENT-ALL: The receiver cannot detect any sound from any

speaker for about 10 seconds.

AGAIN: • The receiver cannot detect sound from the left

or right front speaker.

• The receiver fails to calculate the speakers' output level and difference of each speaker's position in distance.

• On the display, “SUCCESSFUL” appears, then the setting values are shown as follows for about 10 seconds:

Ex.:

*8 Standard channel (the closest speaker).

This speaker position now works as the reference position (“0m/ft”) and other speakers’ distance is shown by the difference with this reference speaker position.

*9 Difference of each speaker position in distance (in

meters or feet).

*10 Each speaker’s output level (–6 to +6).

When finishing displaying the setting values

On the TV screen, “COMPLETED” appears, then “TEST TONE” and “END” appear. On the display, “TEST? END?” appears.

•To adjust the speakers’ output levels manually, press TEST (see page 37).

•To erase the on-screen display, press SET or any button except TEST.

• The receiver returns to normal operation mode automatically if no operations are done for about 10 seconds.

Ex.:

“SMALL” or “LARGE,” or from “SMALL” or “LARGE” to “NO.” To check the current setting, see each setting item of the speaker distance (see page 29) and the speaker output level (see page 37).

• If you have not used Smart Surround Setup, “NO S.S.S.” appears.

NOTES

• When Smart Surround Setup does not work properly, try measures below: – set the volume to “0.” – turn off the components (TV, DVD player, DVD recorder, or

subwoofer, for example) near this receiver or the speakers.

• The speaker distance and output level manually set will be applied instead of those set by using Smart Surround Setup in the following cases: – When you change one of the speaker distances (see page

29).

– When you change one of the speaker sizes either from “NO”

to “SMALL” or “LARGE,” or from “SMALL” or “LARGE” to “NO” (see page 28).

• When you want to adjust the speaker distance and output level manually, see pages 29 and 37.

• When the headphone is in use, the receiver returns to normal operation mode without showing “TEST TONE.”

• The speakers which are set to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 28) are not indicated clearly on the TV screen.

your choice temporarily

Another convenient RDS service is called “Enhanced Other Networks.” This allows the receiver to switch temporarily to a broadcast program of your choice (TA, NEWS, and/or INFO) from a different station except in the following case:

• The Enhanced Other Networks mode only works when receiving an FM station with the Enhanced Other Networks code.

Before you start, remember...

The Enhanced Other Networks function is only applicable to preset FM stations.

Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly until the program type you want appears on the display.

• Each time you press the button, the program type(s) change, and the corresponding indicator(s) light up as follows:

To stop listening to the program selected by Enhanced Other Networks

Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly again so that the program type (TA/NEWS/INFO) indicator goes off from the display. The receiver exits from Enhanced Other Networks standby mode and goes back to the previously selected station.

When an emergency broadcast (Alarm ! signal) is sent from an FM station

The receiver automatically tunes in to the station except in the following cases:

• When you are listening to non-RDS Networks—all AM (MW) stations, some FM stations and other sources.

• When the receiver is in standby mode.

While receiving an emergency broadcast, “Alarm !” appears on the display.

The TEST signal is used for equipment test—whether it can receive the Alarm ! signal correctly

The TEST signal makes the receiver work in the same way as the Alarm ! signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the receiver automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST signal. While receiving the TEST signal, “TEST” appears on the display.

TA: Tr affic Announcement in your area. NEWS: News. INFO: Program the purpose of which is to impart advice in the

widest sense.

How the Enhanced Other Networks function actually works:

If another FM station starts broadcasting the program type you have selected while you are listening to an FM station

The receiver automatically switches to the station. The indicator of the received program type starts flashing.

‘

When the program is over, the receiver goes back to the station previously tuned in, but still remains in Enhanced Other Networks standby mode. The indicator of the received program type stops flashing and remains lit.

If the station currently tuned in starts broadcasting the program type you have selected

The receiver continues to receive the station, but the indicator of the received program type starts flashing.

‘

When the program is over, the indicator of the received program type stops flashing and remains lit, but the receiver remains in Enhanced Other Networks standby mode.

NOTES

• Enhanced Other Networks data sent from some stations may not be compatible with this receiver.

• Enhanced Other Networks does not function for some FM stations with RDS service.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other Networks function, the station does not change even if another network station starts broadcasting a program of the same Enhanced Other Networks data.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other Networks function, you can only use the TA/NEWS/INFO and DISPLAY.

CAUTION:

If the stations alternate intermittently between the station tuned by the Enhanced Other Networks function and the currently tuned station, press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly to cancel the Enhanced Other Networks function. If you do not press the button, the currently tuned station is received finally, and the indication of the Enhanced Other Networks data type flashing on the display disappears.

sound fields

Reproducing theatre ambience

In a movie theatre, many speakers are located on the walls to reproduce impressive multi-channel sound, reaching you from all directions. With these many speakers, sound localization and sound movement can be expressed. Surround/DSP modes built in this receiver can create almost the same Surround sound as you can feel in a real movie theatre.

Introducing the Surround modes

■ Dolby Digital*

Dolby Digital is a digital signal compression method, developed by Dolby Laboratories, and enables multi-channel encoding and decoding.

• When Dolby Digital signal is detected through the digital input, the indicator lights up on the display.

Dolby Digital 5.1CH

Dolby Digital 5.1CH (DOLBY DIGITAL) encoding method records and digitally compresses the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, left surround channel, right surround channel, and LFE channel signals (total 6 channels, but the LFE channel is counted as 0.1 channel. Therefore, called 5.1 channel). Dolby Digital enables stereo surround sounds, and sets the cutoff frequency of the surround treble at 20 kHz, compared to 7 kHz for Dolby Pro Logic. As such, the sound movement and “being-there” feeling are enhanced much more than Dolby Pro Logic.

Dolby Digital EX

Dolby Digital EX (DOLBY D EX) is a digital surround encoding format that adds the third surround channels, called “surround back.” Compared to the conventional Dolby Digital 5.1CH, these newly added surround back channels can reproduce more detailed movements behind you while viewing the video software. In addition, surround sound localization will become more stable.

■ Dolby Surround

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II is a multi-channel playback format to convert 2-channel software into 5-channel (plus subwoofer). The matrixbased conversion method used for Dolby Pro Logic II makes no limitation for the cutoff frequency of the surround treble and enables stereo surround sound.

• This receiver provides three types of Dolby Pro Logic II modes—Pro Logic II Movie (PLII MOVIE), Pro Logic II Music (PLII MUSIC), and Pro Logic II Game (PLII GAME). When Dolby Pro Logic II is activated, the indicator lights up on the display.

PLII MOVIE Suitable for playing any Dolby Surround encoded

PLII MUSIC Suitable for playing any 2-channel stereo

PLII GAME Suitable for playing a video game. You can enjoy

software. You can enjoy a sound field very close to the one created with discrete 5.1-channel sounds.

software. You can enjoy wide and deep sounds.

sounds with “being there” feeling.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a newly introduced multi-channel playback format to convert not only multi-channel software but 2-channel software into 7.1 channel (or 6.1 channel) that developed from Dolby Pro Logic II. The matrix-based conversion method used for Dolby Pro Logic IIx makes no limitation for the cutoff frequency of the surround treble.

• This receiver provides three types of Dolby Pro Logic IIx modes—Pro Logic IIx Movie (PLIIx MOVIE), Pro Logic IIx Music (PLIIx MUSIC), and Pro Logic IIx Game (PLIIx GAME). When Dolby Pro Logic IIx is activated, “PLIIx MOVIE,” “PLIIx MUSIC,” or “PLIIx GAME” appear and the lights up on the display.

PLIIx MOVIE Suitable for playing any Dolby Surround encoded

software. You can enjoy a sound field with a natural wraparound effect.

PLIIx MUSIC Suitable for playing any 2-channel stereo

software. You can enjoy wide and deep 7.1channel sounds.

PLIIx GAME Suitable for playing a video game. You can enjoy

7.1-channel sounds with “being there” feeling. This mode is available for both an analogue and digital 2-channel signal.

•To enjoy software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this receiver. (See page 16.)

indicator

■ DTS**

DTS is another digital signal compression method, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., and enables multi-channel encoding and decoding (1ch up to 6.1ch).

• When DTS signal is detected through the digital input, the indicator lights up on the display.

DTS Digital Surround

DTS Digital Surround (DTS) is another discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software. Compared to Dolby Digital, the DTS Digital Surround format has a lower audio compression rate which enables it to add breadth and depth to the sounds reproduced. As such, DTS Digital Surround features natural, solid, and clear sound.

DTS Extended Surround (DTS-ES)

DTS-ES is another multi-channel digital encoding format. It greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression by adding the third surround channel—surround back channel. DTS-ES includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods—DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch (ES DISCRETE) and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1ch (ES MATRIX). DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch has been designed to encode (and decode) a 6.1-channel signal discretely to avoid interference with each channel. DTS-ES Matrix 6.1ch has been designed to add an extra surround channel to DTS Digital Surround 5.1-channel. By using a matrix encoding/decoding method, an additional “surround back” channel signal is encoded (and decoded) in both the left and right surround channel signals.

DTS 96/24

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for reproducing at home. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency range and greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. DTS 96/24 is a multi-channel digital signal format (fs 96 kHz/24 bits) introduced by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. to deliver “betterthan-CD sound quality” into the home.

• When DTS 96/24 signal is detected, the and 96/24 indicators light up. You can enjoy its 5.1-channel sound with fullquality.

DTS Neo:6

DTS Neo:6 is another conversion method to create 6-channel (plus subwoofer) from analogue/digital 2-channel software by using the high precision digital matrix decoder used for DTS-ES Matrix 6.1ch.

• This receiver provides the following DTS Neo:6 modes—Neo:6 Cinema (NEO:6 CINEMA) and Neo:6 Music (NEO:6 MUSIC). When one of them is activated, the NEO:6 indicator lights up on the display.

NEO:6 CINEMA Suitable for playing movies. You can get the

same atmosphere with 2-channel software as with 6.1-channel software. It is also effective for playing software encoded with conventional surround formats.

NEO:6 MUSIC Suitable for playing music software. The front

channel signals bypass the decoder (resulting in no loss of sound quality) and the surround signals transmitted through the other speakers expand the sound field naturally.

** “DTS”, “DTS-ES”, “Neo:6” and “DTS 96/24” are trademarks

of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

When using Surround mode, the sounds come out of the activated speakers which the Surround mode requires.

• If either “SURROUND SPK” or “CENTER SPK” is set to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 28), the corresponding

channel signals are allocated to and emitted through the front speakers.

• If both “SURROUND SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 28), JVC’s original 3D-

PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the surround effect through the front speakers only) is used. The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.

About other digital signals

Linear PCM

Uncompressed digital audio data used for DVDs, CDs, and Video CDs. DVDs support 2 channels with sampling rates of 48/96 kHz, at quantization of 16/20/24 bits. On the other hand, CDs and Video CDs are limited to 2 channels with 44.1 kHz at 16 bits.

• When Linear PCM signal is detected, the LINEAR PCM indicator lights up.

Multi channel PCM

Uncompressed multi channel digital audio data used for DVDAudios. DVD-Audios support up to 5.1 channels with sampling rates of

44.1/48/88.2/96 kHz and 2 channels with sampling rates of

44.1/48/88.2/96/176/192 kHz, at quantization of 16/20/24 bits.

• When Multi channel PCM signal is detected, the LINEAR PCM indicator lights up and “MULTI CH PCM” appears on the display for a while.

Dual Mono

Dual Mono can be easily understood when you think of the bilingual broadcast for TV programs (however, the Dual Mono format is not identical with those analogue formats). This format is now adopted in Dolby Digital, DTS, and so on. It allows two independent channels (called main channel and sub-channel) to be recorded separately.

•You can select either channel you want to listen to (see page 30).

Introducing the DSP modes

The sound heard in a concert hall, club, etc. consists of direct sound and indirect sound—early reflections and reflections from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the distances of the ceiling and walls. These direct sounds and indirect sounds are the most important elements of the acoustic surround effects. The DSP modes can create these important elements, and give you a real “being there” feeling.

Reflections from behind

Early reflections

Direct sounds

The DSP modes include the following modes:

• Digital Acoustic Processor (DAP) modes—HALL1, HALL2, LIVE CLUB, DANCE CLUB, PAVILION, THEATRE1, THEATRE2

• MONO FILM—Used for all types of 2-channel signals (including Dual Mono signal)

• All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH STEREO)

When one of the DSP modes is activated, the DSP indicator lights up on the display.

When using the DAP mode, the sounds come out of all the connected and activated speakers.

• If “SURROUND SPK” is set to “NO” in the speaker setting

(see page 28), JVC’s original 3D-PHONIC processing (which

has been developed to create the surround effect through the front speakers only) is used. The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.

■ MONO FILM

In order to reproduce a more acoustic sound field in your listening room while viewing monaural sound video software (analogue and 2-channel digital signals including Dual Mono signal), you can use this mode. The surround effect will be added, and the sound localization of actor’s words will be improved.

This mode cannot be used for multi-channel digital signals.

When “MONO FILM” is used, sounds come out of all the connected (and activated) speakers.

• If “SURROUND SPK” is set to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 28), JVC’s original 3D-PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the surround effect through the front speakers only) is used. The 3D-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.

• If incoming signals change from 2-channel digital signal to another digital signal type, “MONO FILM” is canceled and an appropriate Surround mode is activated.

■ All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH STEREO)

This mode can reproduce a larger stereo sound field using all the connected (and activated) speakers. This mode cannot be used

if “SURROUND SPK” is set to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 28).

■ Digital Acoustic Processor (DAP) modes

You can use the following DAP modes in order to reproduce a more acoustic sound field in your listening room.

HALL1 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large

shoebox-shaped hall designed primarily for classical concerts. (Its seating capacity is about

2000.)

HALL2 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large

vineyard-shaped hall designed primarily for classical concerts. (Its seating capacity is about

2000.)

LIVE CLUB Reproduces the spatial feeling of a live music club

with a low ceiling.

DANCE CLUB Reproduces the spatial feeling of a rocking dance

club.

PAVILION Reproduces the spatial feeling of an exhibition

hall with a high ceiling.

THEATRE1 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large theatre

where the seating capacity is about 600.

THEATRE2 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a small theatre

where the seating capacity is about 300.

NOTE

When “THEATRE1” or “THEATRE2” is activated while playing back 2-channel analogue or digital source, the built-in Dolby Pro Logic II decoder is activated and the indicator lights up.

Sound reproduced from normal stereo

Sound reproduced from All Channel Stereo mode

3D HEADPHONE mode

If you connect a pair of headphones while one of the Surround/DSP modes is in use, the 3D HEADPHONE mode is activated without respect to the type of software played back. “3D HEADPHONE” appears on the display and the DSP and HEADPHONE indicators light up.

Using the Surround/DSP modes

Available Surround/DSP modes vary depending on the speaker settings and the incoming signals. See the table below.

• The numbers inside the parentheses following the incoming signal type indicate the number of the front channels and that of the surround channels. For example, (3/2) indicates that the signals are encoded with three front signals (left/right/center) and two (stereo) surround signals.

•For EX/ES/PLIIx setting, see page 30.

• Surround/DSP modes are not available when selecting “A MULTI” in the audio input setting (see page 20) or when multi channel PCM (see page 47) signals recorded in DVD-Audio are coming in.
