Getting Started
This section explains how to connect stereo components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect
the power supply.
Before Installation
General
•
•
•
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.
Locations

Getting Started
Connecting the Speakers
You can connect the following speakers:
•
•
•
Two sets of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound
One set of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect
One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to make human
voices outstanding)
•
One subwoofer to enhance the bass
For each speaker (except for subwoofer), connect one end of the speaker signal
cable (not supplied) to the speaker terminal on the rear panel and the other end to
the speaker. (For connecting a subwoofer, see page 8.)
1. Open each terminal.
2. Insert the end of the speaker signal cable as shown (be
sure to remove the insulation at the end of each wire
first).
CAUTION:
When connecting speakers, use
speakers with the SAME
IMPEDANCE indicated by the
speaker terminals.
3. Close the terminals to clamp the speaker signal cables
firmly in place.
4. Connect the (–) and (+) terminals on the rear panel to
the (–) and (+) terminals marked on the speakers.
Connecting the front speakers
Connect the front speakers to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals.

Connecting the Power Cord
Notes:
• A small amount of power is
always consumed even in
standby mode. To switch off the
power completely, unplug the
power cord from the AC outlet.
• If the power cord is unplugged
(or a power failure occurs),
preset settings will be erased in
a few days.
Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have
been made.
When the power cord is connected, the STANDBY lamp above the POWER button
lights up.
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables for the TV, VCR, and antenna.
The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. We recommend that you use a
coaxial cable to connect the antenna, since it is well-shielded against interference.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not touch the power cord
with wet hands.
• Do not pull on the power cord
to unplug the receiver. When
unplugging the receiver, always
grasp the plug itself so as not
to damage the cord.
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
Before using the remote control, put the two supplied batteries in first. When using the
remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.
1. On the back of the remote control, press down on the battery cover and slide
it out.
2. Insert batteries. Make sure to observe the proper polarity: (+) to (+) and (–)
CAUTIONS:
to (–).
3. Slide the cover.
Follow these precautions to avoid
leaking or cracking cells:
• Place batteries in the remote
control so they match the
polarity indicated: (+) to (+) and
(–) to (–).
R6P (SUM-3)/AA (15F)
• 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.
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use
two R6P (SUM-3)/AA (15F) type dry-cell batteries.

Activating the Surround Sounds
The built-in surround processor provides three groups of programs — JVC 3D-PHONIC mode, DAP (Digital
Acoustic Processor) mode, and surround modes (Dolby Surround and JVC Theater Surround).
You cannot use the DAP mode and surround mode at the same time. When you turn on the DAP mode, the surround mode is
turned off (if it has been on), and vice versa.
On JVC 3D PHONIC mode
JVC 3D-PHONIC mode gives you such a
nearly surround effect as it is reproduced
through the Dolby Surround decoder, which
is widely used to reproduce sounds with a
feeling of movement like those experienced
in movie theaters. JVC 3D-PHONIC mode is

years and makes it possible to reproduce the
surround sound with only two front
speakers.
• The surround processor cannot
be used for recording.
On the DAP mode
The sound heard in a concert hall or club
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 DAP mode can create
these important elements, and gives you a
real “being there” feeling by using the front
speakers and rear speakers.

Using the DAP Modes
You can use five DAP modes — “Dance Club, Live Club, Hall, Pavilion, and
Headphones.” These modes (except “Headphones”) require the front speakers and the
rear speakers, but do not require a center speaker to enlarge the sound field.
Among the DAP modes, “Headphones” is very special. It can create the same stereo
sound as you listen through the speakers off air while listening to a source using
headphones. So, you can feel as if you were not using the headphones and listening to
music in a room.

COMPU LINK Remote Control System
The COMPU LINK remote control system allows you to operate JVC audio components through the remote
sensor on the receiver.
To use this remote control system, you need to connect JVC audio components through
the COMPU LINK-3 (SYNCHRO) jacks with the cable (monaural mini-plug supplied
with those components):
Notes:
• Without connecting the audio
components with RCA pin plugs
as described on page 8, the
COMPU LINK remote control
system cannot operate the
components.
COMPU LINK – 3
(SYNCHRO)
• Refer also to the manuals
supplied with your audio
components.
CD player
Cassette deck
Turntable
This remote control system allows you to use the four functions listed below.
Remote Control through the Remote Sensor on the Receiver
You can control JVC audio components through the remote sensor on the receiver using
this remote control. Aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.
For details, see page 34.
Automatic Source Selection
When you press the play (3) button on a connected component or on its own remote
control, the receiver automatically turns on and changes the source to the component.
On the other hand, if you select a new source on the receiver or the remote control, the
selected component begins playing immediately.
In both cases, the previously selected source continues playing without sound for a few
seconds.
Automatic Power On/Off (only possible with the COMPU LINK-3
connection)
Both the CD player and cassette deck turn on and off with the receiver.
When you turn on the receiver, the CD player or cassette deck will turn on
automatically, depending on which component has been previously selected.
When you turn off the receiver, both the CD player and cassette deck will turn off.
Synchronized Recording
Synchronized recording means the cassette deck starts recording as soon as a CD (or a
record) begins playing.
Notes:
To use synchronized recording, follow these steps:
• During synchronized recording,
the selected source cannot be
changed.
1
Put a tape in the cassette deck, and a disc in the CD player (or a record on the
turntable).
Press the record (¶) button and the pause (8) button on the cassette deck at the
same time.
This puts the cassette deck into recording pause.
If you do not press the record (¶) button and pause (8) button at the same time, the
synchronized recording will not start.
2
• If your CD player is playing in
program mode, a 4-second
blank is recorded between tracks
so that the music scan feature
of your cassette deck can be
used on the recorded tape.
• If the power of any component
is shut off during synchronized
recording, the COMPU LINK
remote control system may not
operate properly. In this case,
you must start again from the
beginning.
3 Press the play (3) button on the CD player (or on the turntable).
The source changes on the receiver, and as soon as play starts, the cassette deck
starts recording. When the play ends, the cassette deck enters recording pause, and
stops about 4 seconds later.

Operating Other Components
You can operate JVC audio and video components with this receiver’s remote control.
To operate these components with the remote control, first select a source with the source buttons on the
remote control. Then, operate that source using the remote control.
IMPORTANT:
Note:
To operate JVC audio components using this remote control:
•
You need to connect JVC audio components through the COMPU LINK-3
(SYNCHRO) jacks (see page 33) in addition to the connections using cables with
RCA pin plugs (see page 8).
If you choose a source on the front
panel, the remote control will not
operate that source.
