Special features

True home theater sound

This receiver 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! §

Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital EX

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 results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie sound-

tracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.

Dolby PRO LOGIC

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II, whilst totally compatible with its predecessor

PRO LOGIC, provides greater advantages in surround sound. It allows

the user to enjoy the conventional stereo or Dolby Surround with a

convincing “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

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.

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 seperation and a

(wide) dynamic range.

DTS-ES (Extended Surround) presents 6.1 channels surround system

with additional Surround Back channel which evolved from the

conventional 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 produce the discrete surround back which is completely independent

and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 produces the surround back which synthesised

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 presents 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 mode, "CINEMA" mode is for movie

playback and "MUSIC" mode is for music playback.

SRS Circle Surround

SRS Circle Surround II™ improves on its predecessor CS-5.1™ resulting

in the CS-6.1™ system, enabling you to listen to realistic, multi-channel,

surround sound playback from a stereo source or conventional surround-

encoded video source. You already enjoy listening to Dolby Digital /DTS

multi-channel sound with your multi-speakers. Now you can listen to

audio CDs, MDs, Broadcast and Home Theater using your multi-

speakers. You will discover a new type of sound through SRS Circle

Surround II.

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”, “THEATER”, “STADIUM” and “DISCO”. It is compatible with

almost any kind of program source.

DVD 6-channel input

If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver

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.

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 during Dolby Digital and DTS playback.

SPEAKER EQ

SPEAKER EQ function is to adjust the receiver’s audio output

characteristics with the speakers’ characteristics which differs

depending on the size of the speakers. Especially for the music sound

source playback, the reproduced sound becomes more natural when

adjusting the output characteristics. When activating the SPEAKER EQ

function, you will be able to enjoy a more natural and dynamic sound

experience even with small size speakers.

Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control

In addition to the basic receiver, 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

malfunctions or damage to the speakers or receiver.

Speaker placement

Front (left and right) speakers

Place at the front left and right of the listening position. Front speakers

are required for all surround modes.

Center speaker

Place front and center. This speaker stabilizes the sound image and

helps recreate sound motion. Required for surround playback.

Surround (left and right) speakers

Place at the direct left and right, or slightly behind, the listening

position at even heights, approximately 1 meter above the ears of the

listeners. These speakers recreate sound motion and atmosphere.

Required for surround playback.

Subwoofer

Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds.

Connecting the system control

Connecting system control cords after connecting a KENWOOD

audio component system lets you take advantage of convenient

system control operations.

This unit is compatible only with the [SL-16] mode. The system

control operation is not available if the unit is connected in the

[XS8], [XS], or [XR] connection mode.

If your component has the mode select switch, set the connected

components to the [SL16] mode.

•You may connect the system control cord to either the up or down

jack.

EXAMPLE: [SL16] mode connections

The underlined portion represents the setting of the system control

mode.

[SL16] Receiver

[SL16] [XS] [XS8] [XR] Cassette deck

or MD recorder

[SL16] [XS] [XS8] CD player

[XS] Record player

•In order to take advantage of the system control operations, the

components must be connected to the correct jacks. To use a CD

player it must be connected to the CD jacks. To use a cassette deck

(or MD recorder) it must be connected to the MD/TAPE jacks. When

using more than one CD player (etc.) only the one connected to the

specified jacks may be connected for system control.

•Some CD players and cassette decks are not compatible with the

[SL16] system control mode. Do not make system connections with

equipment that is not [SL16] compatible.

•Some MD players are not system control compatible. You cannot

make system control connections to this kind of equipment.

Notes

1. [SL16] equipment cannot be combined with [XR], [XS], and [XS8]

equipment for system operations. If your equipment consists of

this kind of combination, please do not connect any system con-

trol cords. Even without system control cords, normal operations

can be carried out without effecting performance.

2. Do not connect system control cords to any components other

than those specified by KENWOOD. It may cause a malfunction

and damage your equipment.

3. Be sure the system control plugs are inserted all the way in to the

system control terminals.

Ambience effects

Dolby Digital

The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels

of digital surround sound from Dolby Digital program sources (such

as Laserdisc or DVD software marked ). Compared with

previous Dolby surround, Dolby Digital provides even better sound

quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improved dynamic range.

Although a full set of speakers (front left, right, and center, surround

left and right, and a subwoofer) is required for true 5.1 channel Dolby

Digital surround sound, this receiver 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, Left Surround,

Right Surround, and Back Surround, 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.

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 receiver 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.

The indication “LFE” appears in the display when a signal is being

input for this channel.

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

marked ). This is achieved with an intelligent, built-in

feedback logic design, a matrix surround decoding and the decoding

of stereo, full bandwidth surround outputs. The PRO LOGIC II modes

programmed into this receiver are “MOVIE”, “MUSIC” and “PRO

LOGIC”. The “MOVIE” mode of the PRO LOGIC II has preset

characteristics to produce a calibrated, high-level surround sound

playback while the “MUSIC” mode has user-adjustable characteris-

tics 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 “wrap-around” effect with side wall imaging.

DTS

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

seperation and a (wide) dynamic range.

In the DTS mode, the 5.1 channel digital input from a DTS CD, LD or

DVD disc (carrying the "DTS" marking) can be played in Digital

Surround.

DTS-ES

DTS-ES (Digital Theater System-Extended Surround) presents 6.1

channels surround system with additional Surround Back channel

which evolved from the conventional 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 produce the discrete surround back

which is completely independent and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1 produces

the surround back which synthesised 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 presents a more natural

presence and surround effects by increasing the impression of the

sound image from back. Programs which are recorded using DTS-ES

technology consist of information flags which will be able to control

the Discrete and Matrix mode. Thus, it can automatically select the

best matched mode.

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 mode, "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.

Note

LFE = Low Frequency Effects. This channel delivers separate non-

directional bass signals to the subwoofer for more dynamic deep

bass sound effects.

DVD 6-channel mode

Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels

and the receiver, 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 “LFE” appears in the display during DVD 6-channel

mode selection.

28 EN

DSP mode

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!

What's DSP?

DSP stands for Digital Signal Processor.

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.

Ambience effects

SRS Circle Surround

SRS Circle Surround II™ improves on its predecessor CS-5.1™

resulting in the CS-6.1™ system, enabling you to listen to realistic,

multi-channel, surround sound playback from a stereo source or

conventional surround-encoded video source. You already enjoy

listening to Dolby Digital/DTS multi-channel sound with your multi-

speakers. Now you can listen to audio CDs, MDs, Broadcast and

Home Theater using your multi-speakers. You will discover a new

type of sound through SRS Circle Surround II.

The CS system dramatically reduces storage space requirements for

multi-channel content. It creates a listening environment that places

the listener “inside” music performances, and dramatically improves

both hi-fi audio and conventional surround-encoded video material.

The CS decoder also includes the SRS technologies Focus™ and

TruBass™. Focus electronically raises the sound stage from the

speaker location to an optimal position. TruBass creates deep, rich

bass in small speaker systems without the need for a subwoofer.

29 EN

Surround play

The DTS compatible models can reproduce a CD, DVD, or LD carrying the

DTS mark.

DOLBY DIGITAL can be used when playing DVD or LD software bearing

the mark and DOLBY DIGITAL format digital broadcasts (etc.).

DOLBY PRO LOGIC can be used when playing video, DVD, or LD

software bearing the mark.

SRS Circle Surround II enables you to listen to multi channel sound from

Midnight mode (Dolby Digital mode only)

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 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 normlal sound passage. This

makes it easy to hear all of the sound track, even when listening at low volumes.

seconds, counts the number of times the LED blinks (e.g.,

blinks=3) and write down that number.

•If a code digit is “0”, the LED will not blink.

Repeat step

three more times for the remaining digits. Use

“2” for the second digit, “3” for the third digit, and “4” for the

fourth digit.

To check the codes of your other components, repeat steps

through

, but substitute the appropriate key (i.e.,

DVD/6CH, CD/DVD, VID1, VID2, VID3, TV, MD/TAPE, AV AUX,

PHONO) for the component you are checking.

•As suggested earlier on, write down each of the four-digit code.

•PHONO key has to be re-assigned to another key before a setup

code can be programmed.

Re-assigning device keys

The remote control can be setup to control second TV or VCR, or any
