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  
Precautions  
Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier  
RX-D401S/RX-D402B features the JVC-exclusive Hybrid  
Feedback Digital Amplifier. Premium-grade parts and devices,  
and special internal construction assure you will enjoy superior  
sound.  
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.  
Compatible with HDMI*  
Ventilation  
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-D401S/RX-D402B 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 HDCP-  
compatible TV to this receiver.  
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.  
*
HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia  
Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI  
Licensing LLC.  
• Do not disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable  
parts inside.  
** HDCP is the abbreviation of High-Bandwidth Digital Content  
Protection,” and is the high-reliable copy control technology  
licenced by Digital Content Protection, LLC.  
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult  
your JVC dealer.  
7.1 channel DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)  
Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience  
recreation of existing theatres and halls. Thanks to the high-  
performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity  
memory, you can enjoy 7.1-channel surround by playing 2-  
channel or multi-channel software.  
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-D401S/RX-  
D402B, this function is applied only when the NTSC analog  
video signals are transmitted to the receiver.

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 (23˚F and 95˚F).  
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.  
• 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 using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at  
the remote sensor on the front panel.  
• 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.  
Remote sensor  
The receiver has a built-in cooling fan which operates  
while the receiver is turned on. Be sure to leave enough  
ventilation to obtain sufficient cooling effect.  
CAUTION:

Audio/video connection  
In addition to the HDMI terminal, this receiver is equipped with three  
video terminals—composite video, S-video, and component video  
terminals, and two audio jacks—analog discrete 5.1 channel audio input  
jacks (DVD MULTI IN), and stereo audio jacks.  
DO NOT use a TV through a VCR or a TV with a built-in  
VCR; otherwise, the picture may be distorted.  
• If your video components have S-video (Y/C-separation) and/or  
component video (Y, PB, PR) jacks, connect them using an S-  
video cable (not supplied) or component video cable (not  
supplied). By using these terminals, you can get a better picture  
quality in the order:  
CAUTION:  
If you connect a sound-enhancing device such as a graphic  
equalizer between the source components and this receiver, the  
sound output through this receiver may be distorted.  
Component > S-video > Composite  
If your video components have AV COMPU LINK terminal  
IMPORTANT:  
See also page 38 for detailed information about the connection  
and the AV COMPU LINK remote control system.  
The video signals from one type of these input jacks are  
transmitted 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  
terminals of 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 terminals of different type, you  
cannot view the playback picture on the TV.  
Do not connect the AC power plug to the wall outlet until all connections are completed.

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.  
Creating realistic  
sound fields  
• 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.  
Reproducing theater ambience  
In a movie theater, 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 theater.  
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 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 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

Dolby Pro Logic IIx  
DTS Neo:6  
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  
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

• 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.

PLIIx MOVIE Suitable for playing any Dolby Surround encoded  
software.You can enjoy a sound field with a  
natural wraparound effect.  
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.  
PLIIx MUSIC Suitable for playing any 2-channel stereo  
software.You can enjoy wide and deep 7.1-  
channel sounds.  
PLIIx GAME Suitable for when playing a video game.You can  
enjoy 7.1-channel sounds with “being there”  
feeling. This mode is available only for an analog  
2-channel signal.  
** “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.  
To enjoy software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the  
source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this  
receiver. (See page 14.)  
• If either “SURROUND SPK” or “CENTER SPK” is set to  
<NO>” in the speaker setting (see page 22), the  
corresponding channel signals are allocated to and emitted  
through the front speakers.  
DTS**  
• If both “SURROUND SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to  
<NO>” in the speaker setting (see page 22), 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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Multi channel PCM  
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.  
Uncompressed multi channel digital audio data used for DVD-  
Audios.  
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 analog 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.  
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 “better-  
than-CD sound quality” into the home.  
You can select either channel you want to listen to (see  
page 24).  
• When DTS 96/24 signal is detected, the  
and 96/24  
indicators light up.You can enjoy its 5.1-channel sound with full-  
quality.

When using the DAP mode, the sounds come out of all the  
connected and activated speakers.  
Introducing the DSP modes  
• If “SURROUND SPK” is set to “<NO>” in the speaker  
setting (see page 22), 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-PHONIC indicator lights up on the display.  
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 (analog 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 “SURROUND SPK” is set to “<NO>” in the speaker  
setting (see page 22), 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.  
Direct sounds  
The DSP modes include the following modes:  
• Digital Acoustic Processor (DAP) modes—HALL1, HALL2, LIVE  
CLUB, DANCE CLUB, PAVILION, THEATER1, THEATER2  
• MONO FILM—Used for all types of 2-channel signals (including  
Dual Mono signal)  
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 22).  
• All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH STEREO)  
When one of the DSP modes is activated, the DSP indicator lights  
up on the display.  
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.)

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.  
DANCE CLUB Reproduces the spatial feeling of a rocking dance  
club.  
PAVILION  
THEATER1  
THEATER2
