SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
“SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT”  
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical equipment, care  
must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.  
Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.  
Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment)  
are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or  
changing connections.  
Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.  
Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.  
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way—switch  
off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.  
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.  
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation  
or has a standby mode.  
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this.  
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.  
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal  
to watch television whilst driving.  
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume as such use can permanently damage your hearing.  
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.  
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.  
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws—to ensure complete safety always fit the manufacturer’s approved  
stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.  
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.  
ABOVE ALL  
— NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case—this could result in  
a fatal electrical shock.;  
— NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind—it is better to be safe than sorry!

3
1 Press and slide the battery cover on the back  
Before Installation  
of the remote control.  
2 Insert batteries.  
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.  
Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).  
3 Replace the cover.  
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases,  
replace the batteries. Use two R6(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell  
batteries.  
Locations  
• Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from  
moisture and dust.  
• Supplied butteries are for initial setup. Replace for continued  
use.  
• The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚C  
and 35˚C.  
CAUTION:  
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor  
ventilation could cause overheating and damage the receiver.  
• Leave sufficient distance between the receiver and the TV.  
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.  
Handling the receiver  
• Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.  
• Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or  
cabinet.  
t
• Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.  
• 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.  
• When you are away on travel or otherwise for an extended  
period or time, remove the plug from the wall outlet. A small  
amount of power is always consumed while the power cord is  
connected to the wall outlet.  
When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at  
the remote sensor on the front panel.

For TV and video format  
For T-V LINK  
This receiver cannot convert the video signals. When the video  
signal of one video component is different from that of the other  
(for example, one is S-video, the other is Composite), you may  
not see the pictures appropriately. In this case, unify the video  
signals of all the video components, or you need to switch the  
video signal of TV each time you change the source.  
You can use the T-V LINK function if you connect a T-V LINK  
compatible TV and VCR to this receiver with a fully wired  
SCART cables. For details on T-V LINK, refer also to the  
manuals supplied with the TV and the VCR.  
• Connect a SCART cable to EXT-2 terminal on the JVC’s T-V  
LINK compatible TV for the T-V LINK function.  
• Some video components support the data communication like  
T-V LINK. For complete details, refer also to the manuals  
supplied with these components.  
For an analogue decoder  
To watch through or to record a scrambled program on your  
VCR, connect the analogue decoder to your VCR and select the  
scrambled channel on your VCR.  
If there is not an appropriate terminal for the decoder connection  
on your VCR, connect the decoder to your TV.  
Refer also to the manuals supplied with these components.  
Audio/video connection  
In addition to the SCART terminals, this receiver is equipped with the following video terminals:  
• Component video input/output: VIDEO IN, DVR/DVD IN, MONITOR OUT  
• Composite and S-video input: VIDEO IN  
IMPORTANT  
The component video signals from the COMPONENT jacks are transmitted only through the MONITOR OUT jacks.  
Therefore, if the TV is connected to the receiver through the SCART terminal (TV) and a playing video component is connected to the  
receiver through the component video jacks (VIDEO IN or DVR/DVD IN), you cannot view the playback picture on the TV.

Setting the speaker distance  
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.  
Setting bass sound  
Setting subwoofer outputSUBWFR OUT  
You can select the type of the signal which can be transmitted  
through the subwoofer. In other words, you can determine  
whether or not the bass elements of the front speaker channels  
are transmitted through the subwoofer regardless of the front  
speaker size setting (either “SMLor “LRG”).  
By referring to the speaker distance, the receiver automatically  
sets the delay time of the sound through each speaker so that  
sounds through all the speakers can reach you at the same time.  
• If you have used Smart Surround Setup on page 16, this setting  
is not required.

Setting the crossover frequencyCROSS OVER  
Small speakers cannot reproduce the bass sounds efficiently. If  
you use a small speaker in any position, this receiver  
automatically reallocates the bass sound elements assigned to  
the small speaker to the large speakers.  
To use this function properly, set this crossover frequency level  
according to the size of the small speaker connected.

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 or TV Direct mode.

Introducing the Surround modes  
I Dolby Digital*  
Dolby Digital is a digital signal compression method, developed by  
Dolby Laboratories, and enables multi-channel encoding and  
decoding (1ch up to 5.1ch).  
Creating realistic  
sound fields  
• When Dolby Digital signal is detected through the digital input,  
the DOLBY D indicator lights up on the display.  
Dolby Digital 5.1CH  
Dolby Digital 5.1CH (DOLBY D) 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.  
Reproducing theatre ambience  
In a movie theatre, many speakers are located on the walls to  
reproduce impressive multi-surround 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.  
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 Pro Logic II  
Dolby Pro Logic II is a multi-channel playback format to convert  
2-channel software into 5-channel (plus subwoofer). The matrix-  
based 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 two types of Dolby Pro Logic II modes—  
Pro Logic II Movie (PLII MOVIE) and Pro Logic II Music (PLII  
MUSIC).  
When Dolby Pro Logic II is activated, the

indicator lights  
PLII MOVIE: Suitable for playing any Dolby Surround encoded  
software.You can enjoy a sound field very close  
to the one created with discrete 5.1-channel  
sounds.  
PLII MUSIC: Suitable for playing any 2-channel stereo  
software.You can enjoy wide and deep sounds.  
To enjoy software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the  
source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this  
receiver. (See page 11.)

When using Surround mode, the sounds come out of the  
activated speakers which the Surround mode requires.  
I 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 DTS  
indicator lights up on the display.  
• If either the surround speakers or center speaker is set to  
“NO” in the speaker setting (see page 18), the corresponding  
channel signals are allocated to and emitted through the front  
speakers.  
• If both the surround speakers and center speaker are set to  
“NO” in the speaker setting (see page 18), JVC’s original 3D-  
PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the  
surround effect through the front speakers only) is used.The 3D  
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.  
3D HEADPHONE mode  
If you connect a pair of headphones while one of the Surround  
modes is in use, the 3D HEADPHONE mode is activated  
without respect to the type of software played back.  
“3DHEADPHONE” appears on the display and the DSP, 3D,  
and HP indicators light up.  
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.  
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 LPCM indicator  
lights up.  
DTS 96/24  
Dual Mono  
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 “better-  
than-CD sound quality” into the home.  
• When DTS 96/24 signal is detected, the DTS and 96/24  
indicators light up.You can enjoy its 5.1-channel sound with full-  
quality.  
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 20).  
DTS Neo:6  
DTS Neo:6 is another conversion method to create 6-channel  
(plus subwoofer) from analog/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:6CINEMA) and Neo:6 Music (NEO:6 MUSIC).  
When one of them is activated, the NEO:6 indicator lights up on  
the display.  
NEO:6CINEMA 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.  
C
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.

When using the DAP mode, the sounds come out of all the  
connected and activated speakers.  
Introducing the DSP modes  
• If the surround speakers are set to “NO” in the speaker  
setting (see page 18), JVC’s original 3D-PHONIC processing  
(which has been developed to create the surround effect  
through the front speakers only) is used.  
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 3D indicator lights up on the display.  
I MONO FILM  
The DSP modes can create these important elements, and give  
you a real “being there” feeling.  
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.  
Reflections from behind  
Early reflections  
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 the surround speakers are set to “NO” in the speaker  
setting (see page 18), JVC’s original 3D-PHONIC processing  
(which has been developed to create the surround effect  
through the front speakers only) is used.  
The 3D 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.  
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)  
I All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH ST.)  
This mode can reproduce a larger stereo sound field using all the  
connected (and activated) speakers. This mode cannot be used  
if the surround speakers are set to “NO” in the speaker  
setting (see page 18).  
• All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH ST.)  
When one of the DSP modes is activated, the DSP indicator lights  
up on the display.  
I 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.)  
Sound reproduced from  
normal stereo  
Sound reproduced from All  
Channel Stereo mode  
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  
THEATRE1  
THEATRE2  
Reproduces the spatial feeling of an exhibition  
hall with a high ceiling.  
3D HEADPHONE mode  
Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large theatre  
where the seating capacity is about 600.  
If you connect a pair of headphones while one of the DSP  
modes is in use, the 3D HEADPHONE mode is activated  
without respect to the type of software played back.  
“3DHEADPHONE” appears on the display and the DSP, 3D,  
and HP indicators light up.  
Reproduces the spatial feeling of a small theatre  
where the seating capacity is about 300.

Virtual Surround Back  
• For some Dolby Digital EX software, Dolby Digital 5.1-channel  
reproduction (“DOLBY D”) is applied.  
• DTS 96/24 processing is not applied when the EX/ES setting is  
activated. If you want to apply the processing, set the EX/ES  
setting to “EX/ES : OFF” (see page 20).  
If you have connected (and activated) the surround speakers,  
you can use Virtual Surround Back when playing back Dolby  
Digital EX or DTS-ES software without connecting the  
surround back speaker.  
C
This function creates the great surround effect from the behind  
as if you have connected the surround back speaker. The  
VIRTUAL SB (Surround Back) indicator lights up on the  
display.  
You cannot select “ALL CH ST.” when the surround speakers  
are set to “NO” in the speaker setting (see page 18).
