Special features
DSP surround modes
True home theater sound
The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this model incorporates a
variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like “ARENA”, “JAZZ
CLUB”, THEATER”, STADIUM” and “DISCO”. It is compatible with
almost any kind of program source.
This model 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!
£
DVD 6-channel input (KRF-V6090D/KRF-V5090D only)
Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital EX
If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this model
allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source
material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are
digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience
is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround sound
systems.
The DOLBY DIGITAL mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from
software processed in the Dolby Digital format. Dolby Digital provides up
to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and
more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround. As for Dolby
Digital EX, it creates six full-bandwidth output channels from the 5.1
channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three
surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best result,
Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie soundtracks recorded with
Dolby Digital Surround EX.
ACTIVE EQ
ACTIVE EQ mode will produce a more dynamic sound quality in any
condition. You can enjoy a more impressive sound effect when ACTIVE
EQ is turned on.
Dolby PRO LOGIC IIx and Dolby PRO LOGIC II
DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor
PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows
user to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a convinc-
ing “5.1 like” presentation. PRO LOGIC II offers special features for
controlling the overall spatial, dimensionality and frontal sound field
imaging. PRO LOGIC II produces an impressive surround sound from
IR (InfraRed) remote control
In addition to the basic receiver operations, this IR remote control
supplied can also control KENWOOD DVD players directly without using
the DVD Special features.
video software marked
and three-dimensional space
from music CD. When listening to music, you will be able to enjoy the
experience of sheer STEREO surround sound.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx enhanced DOLBY PRO LOGIC II’s features.
It creates 6.1 channel and 7.1 channel surround sound from stereo or 5.1
channel signals. This feature provides you an astonishing ambience
effect which makes you feel you are surrounded by natural sound.
Especially 7.1 channel surround sound can produce real back sound from
Surround Back speakers.
DTS and DTS-ES
DTS (Digital Theater System) is a 5.1 channel digital audio format that
provides five full-spectrum channels and one low-frequency (subwoofer)
channel for unprecedented clarity, optimum channel separation and a
(wide) dynamic range.
DTS-ES (Extended Surround) presents 6.1 channels surround system
with additional Surround back channel which evolved from the conven-
tional 5.1 channels surround system. DTS-ES format that was recorded
in DVD, CD or LD comprises of two modes. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1
produces the discrete surround back which is completely independent
and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesized
within the left and right surround channels using matrix technology. DTS-
ES has perfect compatibility with the conventional 5.1 channels surround
system. 6.1 channels surround with an additional surround back pre-
sents a more natural presence and surround effects by increasing the
impression of the sound image from back.
Important:
When a DTS disc is played on a CD, LD or DVD player, noise may be
output from the analog output. It is recommended that you connect the
digital output of the player to the digital input of this unit.
Neo:6
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can produce
high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing fidelity from 2
channels content. Neo:6 has 2 modes, “CINEMA” mode is for movie
playback and “MUSIC” mode is for music playback.

stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal
corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually
have 2 plugs at each end, red for the right channel and white for the left
channel. These cables are usually packed together with the source unit,
or are available at your local electronics retailer.
2 Press the INPUT MODE key.

signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS ) and the speaker setting. The initial
factory setting is full auto.
To keep this model set to the currently selected listening mode, use
the INPUT MODE key to select “D-MANUAL” (digital manual).
However, even when this setting is selected, there may be cases
in which the listening mode is selected automatically to match a
Dolby Digital source signal depending on the combination of listening
mode and source digital.
In D-MANUAL mode, if the audio reproduction stops in the middle
due to change in the input signals etc, press the LISTEN MODE key.

Digital surround sound, this model lets you enjoy Dolby Digital (and
Dolby Surround) program sources, even if you connect only the front
speakers.
Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX is an extension of Dolby Digital technology, Dolby
Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 6.1-
channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives
three surround channels from the two in the original recording.
This is achieved by using three different surround signals, surround
left, surround right, and surround back, each driving its own array of
speakers. Think of it as adding a center channel for the rear speakers,
which give more diffuse and natural surround effect, even if you
wanted the ability to completely encircle the audience with sound,
positioning sound effects exactly where they would be heard in real
life. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie
soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX which contain
a digital flag that will automatically activate this feature. However, for
titles released prior to late 2001, this feature has to be activated
manually.
NEO:6
Neo:6 is a new technology which was developed by DTS. It can
produce high grade 6 channels surround with an astonishing fidelity
from 2 channels content. Neo:6 has 2 modes, “CINEMA” mode is for
movie playback and “MUSIC” mode is for music playback.
DTS has a “.1” or LFE channel.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.
£
DTS
The DTS multi-channel audio format is available on CD, LD and DVD
software. DTS is a strictly digital format and cannot be decoded inside
most CD, LD or DVD players. For this reason, if you attempt to listen
to DTS encoded software through the analog output of your new CD,
LD or DVD player, you will experience digital noise in most cases. This
noise can be quite loud if the analog output is connected directly to
a high power amplification system. Proper measures for playing the
digital output as described below should be taken to avoid this
situation. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround playback, an external 5.1
channel DTS Digital Surround decoder system or an amplifier with a
built-in DTS Digital Surround decoder must be connected to the
digital output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU or TosLink) of a CD, LD or DVD
player.
Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surround
left and right, surround back and a subwoofer) is required for true 6.1
channel Dolby Digital Surround EX sound, this model lets you enjoy
Dolby Digital (and Dolby Surround) program sources, even if you
connect only the front speakers.
Although only Dolby Digital soundtracks incorporate a separate low
frequency channel, connecting a subwoofer will also improve deep
bass performance in the other surround modes.
Dolby Digital has a “.1” or LFE channel.
The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being
input for this channel.

Dolby PRO LOGIC IIx and Dolby PRO LOGIC II
Dolby Pro Logic II was designed specifically to provide a new sense
of spatiality, directionality and articulation of sounds from Dolby
Surround encoded sources (such as video and Laserdisc software
input for this channel.
£
marked
). This is achieved with an intelligent, built-in
DSP mode
feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding and the decoding
of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs.
The DSP mode lets you add the atmosphere of a live concert or hall
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 ARENA, JAZZ CLUB,
THEATER, STADIUM or DISCO mode the next time you watch a
concert or sporting event!
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIx enhanced DOLBY PRO LOGIC II’s features.
It creates 6.1 channel and 7.1 channel surround sound from stereo or
5.1 channel signals. This feature provides you an astonishing ambience
effect which makes you feel you are surrounded by natural sound.
Especially 7.1 channel surround sound can produce real back sound
from Surround Back speakers.
What's DSP?
DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.
The PRO LOGIC IIx modes programmed into this model are “MOVIE”,
“MUSIC” and “GAME”. The PRO LOGIC II modes programmed into
this model are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC”, “GAME” and “PRO LOGIC”.
The “MOVIE” mode has preset characteristics to produce a calibrated,
high-level surround sound playback while the “MUSIC” mode has
user-adjustable characteristics to offer the three optional controls,
like “Dimension”, “Center Width” and “Panorama” modes to allow
optimization of the soundfields as desired. The “Dimension” control
allows the user to gradually adjust the soundfield either towards the
front or towards the rear; the “Center Width” control allows various
adjustment of the left-center-right speakers’ balance; the “Panorama”
mode extends the front stereo image to include the surround speakers
for an exciting “wraparound” effect with side wall imaging.
The “GAME” mode provides surrounded and exciting sound when
you enjoy game or TV. Especially in PRO LOGIC IIx “GAME” mode,
base sound not only from Front and Center but also from Surround
channel is added to Subwoofer. This provides even more dynamic
surround effects.
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.
DVD 6-channel mode (KRF-V6090D/KRF-V5090D only)
Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels
and this model, you can enjoy multi-channel encoded DVD source
material in all its splendor. Since the source signals are digital and
each channel is input independently, the resulting sound quality,
sense of spaciousness, and dynamic range are superb.
The indication “6CH INPUT” appears in the display when a signal is
being input for this channel.

SOUND
When watching movies at night, you might not be able to raise the
volume as loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic
range of previously specified heavy sound passage of the Dolby Digital
and DTS sound track (like scenes with sudden increases in volume) to
minimize the difference in volume between the scenes with heavy
sound passage and scenes with normal sound passage. This makes it
easy to hear all of the sound track, even when listening at low volumes.
