Basic settings

To obtain the best possible sound effect from Surround/DSP

modes (see pages 29 to 33), you need to set up the speaker and

subwoofer information after all the connections are completed.

From pages 14 to 19, how to set speakers and other basic items

of the receiver are explained.

Setting the speaker information

automatically—Smart Surround Setup

The distance from your listening point to the speakers is one of

the important elements to obtain the best possible sound effect for

the Surround/DSP modes.

By using Smart Surround Setup, the following are automatically

calculated by one simple action—clapping hands.

•Speaker distance (compared to that of the closest speaker)

•Speaker output level

NOTES

•To set the speaker information effectively using Smart Surround

Setup, unplug the power cords of all the components connected

to this receiver and the subwoofer which may cause noise.

•Before starting Smart Surround Setup, set the speaker

information correctly (SML, LRG, or NO) according to your

speakers except the subwoofer (see page 16).

•When the setting is made by Smart Surround Setup, the

speaker distance and output level you have set before will be

inactive.

•If you have turned off the display, cancel the Dimmer (see page

13); otherwise, you cannot see the information on the display

during Smart Surround Setup.

•Smart Surround Setup will not be done correctly if you or other

object blocks the sound.

•When you change your speakers, do the following procedure

again.

2

Press and hold SMART SURROUND SETUP

until “SETTING UP” flashes on the display.

3

Confirm that “SETTING UP” stops flashing,

then clap your hands over your head once

while “SETTING UP” still remains on the

display.

The receiver starts detecting the level of the sound coming

through each speakers (except the subwoofer).

When your clapping sound is detected successfully,

“SUCCESSFUL” appears on the display, then the values set are

shown as follows:

Ex.:

Then the receiver returns to

normal operation mode.

*1 Standard channel (the closest speaker).

This speaker position now works as the reference

position (“0m/ft”) and other speakers’ distance is

shown by the difference with this reference speaker

position.

*2 L: Left front speaker

R: Right front speaker

C: Center speaker

LS: Left surround speaker

RS: Right surround speaker

*3 Difference of each speaker position in distance (in

meters or feet).

*4 Each speaker’s output level (–6 to +6).

When your clapping sound is not detected correctly,

“SETTING UP” appears again after one of the following messages

appears on the display.

SILENT: •The receiver detects sound from only the left

and right front speakers.

•The receiver detects no sound from the front

speakers and detects sound from at least one of

other speakers.

SILENT-ALL: The receiver cannot detect any sound from any

speakers for about 15 seconds.

FAILED: The receiver cannot detect sound from the left or

right front speaker.

In this case, repeat step

Using the Radio Data System (RDS)

to receive FM stations

Only the buttons on the remote control are used for RDS

operations.

When operating the receiver using the remote control,

set the mode selector to “AUDIO/TV/VCR/STB.”

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with

their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their

station names, as well as information about what type of program

they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.

When an FM station which provides the RDS service is tuned in,

the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

Searching for a program by PTY

codes

One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a

particular kind of program from the preset channels (see pages

23 and 24) by specifying the PTY codes.

To search for a program using the PTY codes

Before you start, remember...

•To stop searching any time, press PTY SEARCH while

searching.

•There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the setting is

canceled before you finish, start from step

1

again.

1

Press PTY SEARCH while listening to an FM

station.

“PTY SELECT” flashes on the display.

2

While “PTY SELECT” is flashing, press PTY 9

or PTY ( until the PTY code you want appears

on the display.

3

Press PTY SEARCH again while the PTY code

selected in the previous step is still on the

display.

While searching, “SEARCH” and the selected PTY code

alternatively appears on the display.

The receiver searches 30 preset FM stations, stops when it

finds the one you have selected, and tunes in to that station.

•If no program is found, “NOT FOUND” appears on the

display.

To continue searching after the first stop

Press PTY SEARCH again while the indications on the display

are flashing.

Switching to broadcast program of

your choice temporarily

Another convenient RDS service is called “Enhanced Other

Networks.”

This allows the receiver to switch temporarily to a broadcast

program of your choice (TA, NEWS, and/or INFO) from a different

station except in the following case:

•The Enhanced Other Networks mode only works when

receiving an FM station with the Enhanced Other Networks

code.

Before you start, remember...

The Enhanced Other Networks function is only applicable to

preset FM stations.

Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly until the

program type you want appears on the display.

•Each time you press the button, the program type(s) change,

and the corresponding indicator(s) light up as follows:

TA: Traffic Announcement in your area.

NEWS: News.

INFO: Program the purpose of which is to impart advice in the

widest sense.

How the Enhanced Other Networks function actually works:

If another FM station starts broadcasting the program type

you have selected while you are listening to an FM station

The receiver automatically switches to the station. The

indicator of the received program type starts flashing.

‘

When the program is over, the receiver goes back to the

station previously tuned in, but still remains in Enhanced Other

Networks standby mode. The indicator of the received program

type stops flashing and remains lit.

If the station currently tuned in starts broadcasting the

program type you have selected

The receiver continues to receive the station, but the indicator

of the received program type starts flashing.

‘

When the program is over, the indicator of the received

program type stops flashing and remains lit, but the receiver

remains in Enhanced Other Networks standby mode.

To stop listening to the program selected by Enhanced Other

Networks

Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly again so that the program type

(TA/NEWS/INFO) indicator goes off from the display. The receiver

exits from Enhanced Other Networks standby mode and goes

back to the previously selected station.

When an emergency broadcast (Alarm ! signal) is sent from

an FM station

The receiver automatically tunes in to the station except in the

following cases:

•When you are listening to non-RDS Networks—all AM (MW)

stations, some FM stations and other sources.

•When the receiver is in standby mode or TV Direct mode.

While receiving an emergency broadcast, “Alarm !” appears on

the display.

The TEST signal is used for equipment test—whether it can

receive the Alarm ! signal correctly

The TEST signal makes the receiver work in the same way as the

Alarm ! signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the receiver

automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST

signal.

While receiving the TEST signal, “TEST” appears on the display.

NOTES

•Enhanced Other Networks data sent from some stations may

not be compatible with this receiver.

•Enhanced Other Networks does not function for some FM

stations with RDS service.

•While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other

Networks function, the station does not change even if another

network station starts broadcasting a program of the same

Enhanced Other Networks data.

•While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other

Networks function, you can only use the TA/NEWS/INFO and

DISPLAY.

CAUTION:

If the stations alternate intermittently between the station tuned by

the Enhanced Other Networks function and the currently tuned

Creating realistic sound fields

Creating realistic

sound fields

Reproducing theatre ambience

In a movie theatre, many speakers are located on the walls to

reproduce impressive multi-surround 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 theatre.

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 (1ch up to 5.1ch).

•When Dolby Digital signal is detected through the digital input,

the DOLBY D indicator lights up on the display.

Dolby Digital 5.1CH

Dolby Digital 5.1CH (DOLBY D) 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.

Another digital surround encoding format introduced by Dolby

Laboratories is Dolby Digital EX, which 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.

•You can use Virtual Surround Back (see page 18) when playing

back Dolby Digital Surround EX software. This function creates

the great surround effect from the behind as if you have

connected the surround back speaker. The VIRTUAL SB

indicator lights up on the display.

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 two types of Dolby Pro Logic II modes—

Pro Logic II Movie (PLII MOVIE) and Pro Logic II Music (PLII

MUSIC).

When Dolby Pro Logic II is activated, the indicator lights

up on the display.

PLII MOVIE: Suitable for playing any Dolby Surround encoded

software. You can enjoy a sound field very close

to the one created with discrete 5.1-channel

sounds.

PLII MUSIC: Suitable for playing any 2-channel stereo

software. You can enjoy wide and deep sounds.

•To enjoy software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the

source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this

receiver. (See page 9.)

*Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.

“Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D symbol are

Creating realistic sound fields

■ DTS**

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 DTS

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.

Another multi-channel digital surround encoding format introduced

by Digital Theater Systems, Inc. is DTS Extended Surround

(DTS-ES).

It greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and

space expression by adding the third surround channel—surround

back channel.

DTS-ES includes two signal formats with different surround signal

recording methods—DTS-ES Discrete 6.1ch and DTS-ES Matrix

6.1ch.

•You can use the Virtual Surround Back (see page 18) when

playing back DTS-ES software. This function creates the great

surround effect from the behind as if you have connected the

surround back speaker. The VIRTUAL SB indicator lights up on

the display.

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.

•When DTS 96/24 signal is detected, the DTS and 96/24

indicators light up. You can enjoy its 5.1-channel sound with full-

quality.

**“DTS” and “DTS 96/24” are trademarks of Digital Theater

Systems, Inc.

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 LPCM indicator

lights up.

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 analogue 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.

•You can select either channel you want to listen to (see

page 18).

When using Surround mode, the sounds come out of the

activated speakers which the Surround mode requires.

•If either the surround speakers or center speaker is set to

“NO” in the speaker setting (see page 16), the corresponding

channel signals are allocated to and emitted through the front

speakers.

•If both the surround speakers and center speaker are set to

“NO” in the speaker setting (see page 16), JVC’s original 3D-

PHONIC processing (which has been developed to create the

surround effect through the front speakers only) is used. The 3D

indicator lights up on the display.

3D HEADPHONE mode

If you connect a pair of headphones while one of the Surround

modes is in use, the 3D HEADPHONE mode is activated

without respect to the type of software played back.

“3DHEADPHONE” appears on the display and the DSP, 3D,

and HP indicators light up.

EN29-33RXE11S_12B[B]f.p65 08/12/2004, 15:0130

31

Creating realistic sound fields

3D HEADPHONE mode

If you connect a pair of headphones while one of the DSP

modes is in use, the 3D HEADPHONE mode is activated

without respect to the type of software played back.

“3DHEADPHONE” appears on the display and the DSP, 3D,

and HP indicators light up.

Introducing the DSP modes

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 DSP modes can create these important elements, and give

you a real “being there” feeling.

The DSP modes include the following modes:

•Digital Acoustic Processor (DAP) modes—HALL1, HALL2, LIVE

CLUB, DANCE CLUB, PAVILION, THEATRE1, THEATRE2

•MONO FILM—Used for all types of 2-channel signals (including

Dual Mono signal)

•All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH ST.)

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.)

HALL2 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large

vineyard-shaped hall designed primarily for

classical concerts. (Its seating capacity is about

2000.)

LIVE CLUB Reproduces the spatial feeling of a live music club

with a low ceiling.

DANCE CLUB Reproduces the spatial feeling of a rocking dance

club.

PAVILION Reproduces the spatial feeling of an exhibition

hall with a high ceiling.

THEATRE1 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a large theatre

where the seating capacity is about 600.

THEATRE2 Reproduces the spatial feeling of a small theatre

where the seating capacity is about 300.

NOTE

When “THEATRE1” or “THEATRE2” is activated while playing

back 2-channel analogue or digital source, the built-in Dolby Pro

Logic II decoder is activated and the indicator lights up.

Early reflections

Direct sounds

Reflections from behind

When using the DAP mode, the sounds come out of all the

connected and activated speakers.

•If the surround speakers are set to “NO” in the speaker

setting (see page 16), JVC’s original 3D-PHONIC processing

(which has been developed to create the surround effect

through the front speakers only) is used.

The 3D indicator lights up on the display.

■ MONO FILM

In order to reproduce a more acoustic sound field in your listening

room while viewing monaural sound video software (analogue

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.

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 the surround speakers are set to “NO” in the speaker

setting (see page 16), JVC’s original 3D-PHONIC processing

(which has been developed to create the surround effect

through the front speakers only) is used.

The 3D 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.

■ All Channel Stereo mode (ALL CH ST.)

This mode can reproduce a larger stereo sound field using all the

connected (and activated) speakers. This mode cannot be used

without activating the surround speakers.
