Check to be sure you have all of the following items, which are  
supplied with the receiver.  
The number in the parentheses indicates quantity of the pieces  
supplied.  
A. Using the Supplied FM Antenna  
The FM antenna provided can be connected to the FM 75Ω  
COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure.  
• Remote Control (1)  
B. Using the Standard Type Connector (Not Supplied)  
A standard type connector should be connected to the FM 75Ω  
COAXIAL terminal.  
• Batteries (2)  
• AM Loop Antenna (1)  
Note:  
• FM Antenna (1)  
If reception is poor, connect the outdoor antenna.  
Before attaching a 75coaxial cable (the kind with a round wire going  
to an outdoor antenna), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.  
• AC Plug Adaptor (1) (Except for Hong Kong)  
If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.  
Setting the Voltage Selector Switch  
Before connections, always do the following first if necessary.  
Set the correct voltage for your area with the voltage selector switch  
on the rear panel. Use a screw driver to rotate the switch so the  
number the arrow is pointing at is the same as the voltage where you  
are plugging in the receiver.

FRONT SPEAKERS  
You can connect the following speakers:  
• Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.  
• One pair of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect.  
• One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to  
emphasize human voices).  
• One subwoofer to enhance the bass.  
IMPORTANT:  
After connecting the speakers listed above, set the speaker  
setting information properly to obtain the best possible DSP  
effect. For details, see page 14.

About the speaker impedance  
You can enhance the bass by connecting a subwoofer.  
Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the  
SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cable with RCA  
pin plugs (not supplied).  
The required speaker impedance of the front speakers does differ  
depending on whether both the FRONT SPEAKERS 1 and FRONT  
SPEAKERS 2 terminals are used or only one of them is used.

IMPORTANT:  
Note:  
This receiver is equipped with both the composite video and S-video  
input/output terminals for connecting video components.  
You do not have to connect both the composite video and S-video  
terminals.  
Any turntables incorporating a small-output cartridge such as an MC  
(moving-coil type) must be connected to this receiver through a  
commercial head amplifier or step-up transformer. Direct connection  
may result in insufficient volume.  
However, remember that the video signals from the composite  
video input terminals are output only through the composite  
video output terminals, while the ones from the S-video input  
terminals are output only through the S-video output terminals.  
Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video  
component are connected to the receiver through the different video  
terminals, you cannot record the picture from the playing component  
on the recording component. In addition, if the TV and a playing video  
component are connected to the receiver through the different video  
terminals, you cannot view the playback picture from the playing  
component on the TV.

Digital connections  
Connecting the Power Cord  
This receiver is equipped with three DIGITAL IN terminals — one  
digital coaxial terminal and two digital optical terminals.  
You can connect any component to any one of the digital terminals  
using the digital coaxial cable (not supplied) or digital optical cable  
(not supplied).  
Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all  
connections have been made.  
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.  
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables and the  
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.  
IMPORTANT:  
• When connecting the DVD player or the DBS tuner using the digital  
terminal, you also need to connect it to the video jack (either  
composite video terminal or S-video terminal) on the rear. Without  
connecting it to the video jack, you can view no playback picture.  
• After connecting the components using the DIGITAL IN terminals,  
set the following correctly if necessary.  
– Select the digital input mode correctly. For details, see “Selecting  
the Analog or Digital Input Mode” on page 13.  
– Set the digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminal setting correctly. For  
details, see “Digital Input (DIGITAL IN) Terminal Setting” on page  
13.  
Notes:  
• Except for Hong Kong: If the wall outlet does not match the AC  
plug, use the supplied AC plug adaptor.  
• The preset settings such as preset channel and sound adjustment  
may be erased in a few days in the following cases:  
– When you unplug the power cord.  
– When a power failure occurs.  
CAUTIONS:  
• Do not plug in before setting the voltage selector switch on the rear  
of the unit and all connection procedures are complete.  
• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.  
DBS tuner  
DVD player  
• 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.

1. On the back of the remote control, remove the  
battery cover.  
2. Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity:  
(+) to (+).  
Before connecting a digital  
optical cable, unplug the  
protective plug.  
3. Replace the cover.  
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace  
the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.  
Notes:  
CAUTION:  
• When shipped from the factory, the DIGITAL IN terminals has been  
set for use with the following components.  
– DIGITAL 1 (coaxial): For DBS tuner  
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:  
• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity: (+)  
to (+).  
– DIGITAL 2 (optical): For DVD player  
– DIGITAL 3 (optical): For CD player  
• 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.  
• When you want to operate the CD player or MD recorder using the  
COMPU LINK remote control system, connect the target  
component also as described in “Analog connections” (see pages 5  
and 6).

Using the DSP Modes  
The built-in Surround Processor provides three types of the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) mode — 3D-PHONIC mode,  
DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) mode and Surround mode.  
3D-PHONIC modes  
DAP modes  
The 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. The 3D-PHONIC mode is the result  
of research on sound localization technology carried out at JVC for  
many years. This mode can be used when the front speakers are  
connected to this receiver (without respect to the rear/center  
speaker connection).  
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. This mode can be used when the front  
speakers are connected to this receiver (without respect to the  
rear/center speaker connection).  
You can select either 3D ACTION or 3D THEATER to your  
preference when playing an analog or Linear PCM (digital)  
source.  
You can select one of the following to your preference.  
You can select either 3D DIGITAL or 3D THEATER to your  
preference when playing a Dolby Digital, DTS Digital Surround,  
or MPEG Multichannel source.  
LIVE CLUB: Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low  
ceiling.  
DANCE CLUB: Gives a throbbing bass beat.  
3D ACTION: Best for action and war movies — where the  
HALL:  
Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a concert hall.  
action is fast and explosive.  
PAVILION:  
Gives the spacious feeling of a pavilion with a high  
ceiling.  
3D DIGITAL: Reproduces multi-sound source encoded with  
Dolby Digital, DTS Digital Surround, or MPEG  
Multichannel.  
3D THEATER: Reproduces the sound field of a large theater. This  
mode can be selected when only front speakers are  
connected to this receiver and “REAR SPK” and  
“CENTER SPK” is set to “NONE” (see page 14).

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 (see  
below) in addition to the connections using cables with RCA pin  
plugs (see pages 5 and 6).  
• Make sure that the AC power cords of these components are  
unplugged before connection. Plug the AC power cords only after  
all connections are complete.  
Automatic Power On/Off (Standby): only possible  
with the COMPU LINK-3 connection  
Both the CD player and cassette deck (or MD recorder) turn on and  
off (standby) along with the receiver.  
When you turn on the receiver, the CD player or cassette deck (or  
MD recorder) 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 (or MD recorder) will turn off (standby).  
CD player  
Synchronized Recording  
Synchronized recording means the cassette deck (or MD recorder)  
starts recording as soon as a CD or a record begins playing.  
Cassette deck  
or  
MD recorder  
To use synchronized recording, follow these steps:  
COMPU LINK – 3  
(SYNCHRO)  
1. Put a tape in the cassette deck (or an MD in the  
MD recorder), and a disc in the CD player (or a  
record on the turntable).  
2. Press the record () button and the pause (8)  
button on the cassette deck (or MD recorder) at  
the same time.  
This puts the cassette deck (or MD recorder) into recording  
pause.  
Turntable  
If you do not press the record () button and pause (8) button at  
the same time, the synchronized recording feature will not  
operate.  
Notes:  
• If your audio component has two COMPU LINK-3 (SYNCHRO)  
jacks, you can use either one. If it has only one COMPU LINK-3  
(SYNCHRO) jack, connect it so that it is the last item in the series  
of components. (For example, the turntable or CD player in the  
diagram above.)  
To operate the cassette deck or MD recorder using the COMPU  
LINK remote control system, set the source name correctly. (See  
page 12.)  
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 (or MD recorder) starts recording. When the  
play ends, the cassette deck (or MD recorder) enters recording  
pause, and stops about 4 seconds later.  
• Refer also to the manuals supplied with your audio components.  
Notes:  
This remote control system allows you to use four functions listed  
below.  
• During synchronized recording, the selected source cannot be  
changed.  
• 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.  
Remote Control through the Remote Sensor on the  
Receiver  
You can control the connected audio components through the remote

TEXT COMPU LINK Remote Control System  
The TEXT COMPU LINK remote control system has been newly developed to deal with the disc information recorded in  
the CD Text* and MDs. Using these information in the discs, you can operate the CD player or MD recorder equipped  
with the TEXT COMPU LINK remote control system through the receiver.  
CONNECTIONS:  
FUNCTIONS:  
This remote control system allows you to use the functions listed  
below.  
To use this remote control system, you need to connect the CD  
player and/or MD recorder you want to operate, following the  
procedures below.  
Displaying the Disc Information on the TV screen  
Disc information such as its performer and disc title (and track titles  
only when a CD Text is selected) is shown on the TV screen.  
1. If you have already plugged your CD player, MD  
recorder, and this receiver into the AC outlets,  
unplug their AC power cords first.  
Disc Search: Only for CD Player  
This remote control system can allow you to search discs by the  
performer, disc title, and music genre.  
With this disc search, you can easily find the disc you want to play.  
2. Connect your CD player, MD recorder, and this  
receiver as follows, through the COMPU LINK-3  
(SYNCHRO) jacks and TEXT COMPU LINK  
jacks.  
Disc Title Input  
If your CD player or MD recorder has the disc memory function,  
you can input the following information about the normal audio CDs  
or MDs on the TV screen.  
1) COMPU LINK-3 (SYNCHRO) jacks: Use the cables with  
the monaural mini-plugs (not supplied with this receiver).  
• For CDs: Performer, disc title, and music genre  
• For MDs: Disc title and song titles  
CD player  
*What is a CD Text?  
In a CD Text, some information about the disc (its disc title, performer,  
composer, arranger, etc.) is recorded.  
MD recorder  
COMPU LINK – 3  
(SYNCHRO)  
Notes:  
• If your audio component has two COMPU LINK-3 (SYNCHRO)  
jacks, you can use either one. If it has only one COMPU LINK-3  
(SYNCHRO) jack, connect it so that it is the last item in the series  
of components. (For example, the CD player in the diagram to the  
left.)  
2) TEXT COMPU LINK jacks: Use the cables with the  
stereo mini-plugs (not supplied with this receiver).  
• If your audio component has two TEXT COMPU LINK jacks, you  
can use either one. If it has only one TEXT COMPU LINK jack,  
connect it so that it is the last item in the series of components. (For  
example, the CD player in the diagram to the left.)  
• “TEXT COMPULINK SOURCE NOT CONNECTED” appears on the  
display in the following cases:  
– When the connections explained to the left are not correctly done.  
– When you try to use the TEXT COMPU LINK function a few  
seconds after you turn on the connected equipment. This is not a  
malfunction of the units.

selector set to “2(SLAVE UNIT).”  
If you turn on the receiver before turning on the other components  
after connecting the components, the TEXT COMPU LINK remote  
control system does not work correctly.  
If this happens:  
1. Turn off all the components including this receiver.  
2. Turn on the connected components.  
3. Turn on this receiver.  
3. Connect your CD player, MD recorder and this  
receiver, using the cables with RCA pin plugs (see  
page 6).
