Preparations
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control
Operations
This receiver incorporates a wide variety of surround modes to bring you maximum enjoyment from your video software. Select
a surround mode according to your equipment or the software you are going to play and enjoy!¤
Dolby Pro Logic & Dolby 3 Stereo
This surround system reproduces theater-like surround sound from video software marked .
The PRO LOGIC mode uses the built-in directivity enhancer circuit to control the Left, Center, Right and Surround channel
audio signals and reproduce a real sense of sound motion .
The 3 STEREO mode uses the directivity enhancer circuit to provide proper acoustic positioning and a real sense of sound
motion even when only the front and center speakers are used.
New DSP surround modes
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like
"ARENA", "JAZZ CLUB" and "STADIUM", to add the “presence” associated with an arena, jazz club or stadium to the original
signal. It is compatible with almost any kind of program source.
In addition to the basic receiver operations, the remote control supplied with this receiver can also operate almost all of your
remote controllable audio and video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to register the components you
have connected.
fi
Dual IR emitters
This remote control has two IR emitters: one to send commands in a straight line over long distances, allowing you to control
the receiver and your other components from farther away; and one for wide dispersion of commands in a closer proximity,
for near-field operation even when the remote control is not pointed directly at the respective component.#
MACRO play
The MACRO function lets you perform a series of operations automatically, like turning ON the power of the receiver and
connected components, switching the input selectors, and starting playback. (Be sure to register your components before
starting the macro set up procedure.)·q
This function lets you update the remote control so it can operate new components which do not appear in the setup code
list at the end of the manual. Therefore, the remote control will always be compatible.
Other
RDS (Radio Data System) tuner
The receiver is equipped with a RDS tuner that provides several convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto Memory, to
automatically preset up to 40 RDS stations broadcasting different programs; station name display, to show you the name
of the current broadcast station; and PTY search to let you tune stations by program type.§
PTY (Program TYpe) search
Lets you tune stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear.•
e
EON (Enhanced Other Networks) reservation
The EON function lets you monitor information on other stations so you can receive traffic, news, or information programs
as soon as they are broadcast, even they are broadcast on a station different from the one you are currently listening to.
When the broadcast ends, the receiver returns to the original station. When listening to Kenwood source components
connected with system control cords, the input selector on the receiver automatically switches to the tuner when a program
you desire is broadcast.º

• The delay time can be adjusted in the range from 15 ms to 30 ms, in 5
ms steps.
• This adjustment is also possible with the LEVEL CONTROL key of the
main unit.
What is delay time?
The sound entering the ears include the direct sound coming from the
sound source and the indirect sounds reflected from the walls, floor,
ceiling, etc. The indirect sounds are delayed because they travel
longer distance required for reflection before they reach the ears. The
delay time is the difference in time between the direct sound and
indirect sounds.
• The input selector does not change the first time you press the VIDEO
key.
1 Use the delay time calculation chart on the right.
Example: When A = 3 m, B = 3 m, the delay time is 20 ms.

This receiver incorporates 3 different sound modes to let you
enjoy surround sound with a wide variety of program sources.
32
The Dolby Pro Logic surround sound let you enjoy theaterlike surround effects when you play Dolby Pro Logic program sources (like Laserdiscs). Dolby 3 Stereo creates a
panoramic frontal sound field while keeping dialog on screen.
The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) modes let you create a
variety of different sonic environments from almost any
type of program source.
To obtain the best possible surround sound, be sure to
complete "Preparing for surround sound" before using the
surround modes.$
Sound modes
KR-V9090/8090 (En/T)
What's DSP?
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.
The way a sound is heard in an actual environment
depends on a variety of different factors. One of the most
important is reverberation (the act of decaying elements
of sound echoing in various places).
The DSP modes produce the feeling of presence by using
the DSP to create reverberation, without spoiling the
sound quality of the original signal.
Dolby Pro Logic
Dolby Pro Logic is a specially encoded 2 channel surround
format designed to provide theater-like surround sound
from Dolby Pro Logic program sources (such as video and
Laserdisc software marked ). This receiver
is equipped with a Dolby Pro Logic surround decoder to let
you enjoy the wide variety of currently available Dolby Pro
Logic home video software.
Operations
Dolby 3 Stereo
Dolby 3 Stereo creates a panoramic frontal sound field
while maintaining the dialog in an on-screen position. This
mode is designed for use with Dolby program sources, but
can also improve sound field unity for non-Dolby program
sources. Dialog positioning and sound image definition,
however, may not be as accurate when used with nonDolby program sources.

DSP mode
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of an arena,
jazz club, or stadium to almost any type of program source.*
These modes are particularly effective when used with
stereo program sources, like CD, television, and FM radio.
You might enjoy trying the STADIUM or ARENA mode the
next time you watch a concert or sporting event!
The WALL parameter lets you adjust the “brightness” of
the sonic environment according to your preference.^
The ROOM SIZE parameter lets you adjust the size of the
sonic environment according to your preference.&
The EFFECT level lets you adjust the “presence” of the
sonic environment according to your preference.^
* The DSP mode will produce a stereo-like surround effect from
monaural sources, but there will be some reduction in the presence
of the arena, jazz club, or stadium.

• This code replaces any previous setup codes entered for the respective
component.
• If you have components that are not remote controllable, like a record
player (etc.), you will need to register a Non-IR code at the respective
input. This keeps the respective input in the remote control's cyclic list
so you can select it using the remote control. Please consult the
owner's manual of the components you are connecting for information
regarding remote controllability. The list of Non-IR codes is included at
the beginning of the Set up code chart.t
•This operation should take about 3 seconds.
•Once registered, the display on the receiver shows the component
type instead of the default input name.
Example: if you register a VCR at the VIDEO 1 jacks, "VCR" appears
instead of "VIDEO 1 (SAT)".
• After initial setup, any VIDEO (VIDEO 1, 2, 3) or TV (TV1, TV2, CABLE)
inputs that have not been programmed with a setup code or Non-IR
code are deleted from the cyclic list (except for the "AV AUX" VIDEO
input). The PHONO input will be deleted if a Non-IR code was not
registered.
•The INPUT SELECTOR on the front panel of the receiver always cycles
through all inputs.
Note
Note
Although each setup code is designed to work with a number of different models, certain codes may not work with some models. (Also,
certain codes may only operate some of the functions available on a given model.)

Notes
Notes
certain codes may only operate some of the functions available on a given model.)
2. The charts below show the typical functions available for each component. Some manufacturers use different key combinations to perform

equipment. To find if your component has extra functions, press the FUNCTION SHIFT key, then press a number key. Repeat this procedure
for each number key.
