About the supplied remote control . . .

Compared to standard remote controls, the remote control supplied with this receiver has several

operation modes. These modes enable the remote control to perform on screen operations and control

other audio/video components. In order to effectively use the remote control it is important to read the

operating instructions and obtain a proper understanding of the remote control and how to switch its

operation modes (etc.).

Using the remote control without completely understanding its design and how to switch the operation

modes may result in incorrect operations.

True home theater sound

Thisreceiverincorporatesawidevarietyofsurroundmodestobringyoumaximumenjoymentfromyourvideosoftware. Select

a surround mode according to your equipment or the software you are going to play and enjoy!

Dolby Digital (AC-3)

The DOLBY DIGITAL (AC-3) mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital (AC-3)

format. Dolby Digital (AC-3) provides up to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and more

powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.

Pperations

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", "STADIUM", "CHURCH" and "THEATER", to add the “presence” associated with an arena, jazz club

or stadium (etc.) to the original signal. It is compatible with almost any kind of program source.

Oeprations

Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control

In addition to the basic receiver and OSD 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.

Dual IR emitters

ThisremotecontrolhastwoIRemitters:onetosendcommandsinastraightlineoverlongdistances, allowingyoutocontrol

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.)

Ohter

FutureSet, automatic update feature

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.

Easy surround setup and operation with OSD (On Screen Display)

This function takes advantage of your monitor TV to simplify the surround setup procedures so you can quickly and easily

match the surround processing to your speaker system, and your listening environment.

You can also use OSD during playback to customize the DSP surround modes, etc.

Special features

KR-V888D (En/T)

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.

∞

On screen Radio Text

Although most RDS compatible tuners and receiver's can display the name of the current broadcast station, this receiver

goes one step further by allowing you to display the station name, as well as any other text messages broadcast from the

current station, in large easy to read characters on the screen of your monitor TV. You can even display radio text from an

RDS station while enjoying a different source component!

∞

ﬂ

PTY (Program TYpe) search

Peprations

Lets you tune stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear.

•

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.

New TRAITR transistor adopted in the final stage

A new TRAITR transistor which features superior temperature tracking characteristics has been adopted in the final stage

of the power amplifier block. This new TRAITR transistor combines a temperature compensation resistor with an emitter

resistor and final transistor to provide ideal temperature compensation characteristics and minimize distortion caused by

temperature variations.

Operations

How to use this manual

RmeCntrol

This m anual is divided in to four sections, Preparations, Operations, Rem ote Control, and Other.

Preparations

Shows you how to connect your audio and video components to the receiver and prepare the surround processor.

We've tried to make setting up your system as easy as possible. However, since this receiver works with all of your audio and video

components, connecting the system can be fairly complex.

Operations

Remote sensor

Operating distance

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.

What's DSP?

DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.

The DSP m odes produce the feeling of presence by using

the DSP to create reverberation, w ithout spoiling the

sound quality of the original signal.

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.)
