Connections - Denon AVC-A1XVA Operating Instructions Manual

2) IEEE 1394 Compatability
Two IEEE 1394 digital interface inputs are provided, allowing
SACD DSD and DVD-Audio digital audio signal input capability
with select DENON DVD players that feature IEEE 1394 digital
output function, and feature DENON's D.A.S.S. (DENON Audio
Synchronized System) function, which reduces data jitter for
superior high resolution DSD and PCM reproduction.
3) Ethernet Function
For full compatibility with external control systems, such as
AMX and Crestron, the AVC-A1XVA features Ethernet
connectivity.
4) Network Audio
Connecting the AVC-A1XVA to a computer using an Ethernet
cable allows you to enjoy Internet radio stations and music
servers and to make settings on the computer.
5) RS-232C Serial Input/Output Function
For full compatibility with external control systems, such as
AMX and Crestron, the AVC-A1XVA features a RS-232C serial
I/O port. A second RS-232C serial I/O port is provided on the
front panel, for future software and system upgrade capability.
6) Future Surround Format Inputs & Outputs
For possible future surround sound formats, the AVC-A1XVA
features up to ten channel audio inputs (nine main channels
plus an additional low frequency effects channel), with high
resolution A/D conversion on each input. A second set of 5.1
analog inputs is also provided, for connection to surround
sources such as SACD and/or DVD-Audio players.
8. Easy-To-Use Functions
1) Automatic Setup With Room Equalization
Featuring the newest Audyssey MultEQ XT technology, the
AVC-A1XVA provides automatic room equalization with
multiple measurement points for optimum response
throughout the listening room. A high quality measuring
microphone (DENON DMS-305) is provided.
2) Three User-Definable Easy Modes
Three User Modes are provided, allowing you to store and
recall your favorite Surround modes with individual level
memories at the touch of a button.
3) Digital Audio Delay Function
For optimum picture and sound synchronization, the AVC-
A1XVA features an adjustable digital audio delay function,
variable from 0 ~ 200 milli-seconds.
4) Adjustable Crossover Frequencies
For the widest compatibility with various main speaker and
subwoofer combinations, the AVC-A1XVA is equipped with a
choice of ten different crossover frequencies (40, 60, 80, 90,
100, 110, 120, 150, 200 and 250 Hz crossover points),
individually adjustable for each of the main speaker systems.
5) The AVC-A1XVA provides dual subwoofer outputs, along with
an additional subwoofer output dedicated for the Low
Frequency Effects channel (MAIN ZONE).

5 CONNECTIONS

• Do not plug in the power supply cord until all connections have
been completed.
• Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly (left with
left, right with right).
• Insert the plugs securely. Incomplete connections will result in
the generation of noise.
• Use the AC OUTLET for audio equipment only. Do not use
them for hair driers, etc.

6) Auto Surround Mode
For each input source, a separate memory stores your
preferred surround sound mode and other settings, eliminating
the need to re-configure the Surround mode parameters
whenever you switch between input sources.
7) Assignable High Current Trigger Outputs
Four different 12 Volt trigger outputs allow the automatic
activation of externally controlled devices, such as motorized
drop-down screens, motorized drapery, motorized screen
masking systems and other trigger-activated systems. Each
port supports 12V/250mA
assignable by zone (MAIN ZONE, ZONE2, ZONE3, or ZONE4).
8) Assignable AC Outlet
Assignable AC convenience outlet is provided, and it can be
activated by choice of input source or surround sound mode by
each zone, to activate specific external components as
necessary.
9) Front Panel Convenience Inputs
A set of front panel A/V inputs allows quick connection of A/V
sources, such as a video camcorder or a game console.
10) Operating the remote control unit
The RC-1036 remote control has a backlit EL display whose
contents change according to the mode or function selected,
with the appropriate remote commands for that mode or
function.
11) Large Fluorescent Display
For easy setup and system monitoring, the AVC-A1XVA
features a clearly readable FL display that provides extensive
system status and setup monitoring.
12) AC Input
Detachable power supply cord.
13) Other Useful Functions
Digital Audio Input to Analog Recording Output conversion
Input Source Re-naming Function
Audio Level Memories for each input
Personal Memory Plus function stores surround mode, level
memories, analog or digital input selection for each input
Volume Level Limiter provides a user-definable pre-set volume
level for multi-zone audio operation
Power On Volume Level Memory provides a user-definable
volume level that is activated every time the AVC-A1XVA is
powered up
Setup Lock Function prevents mis-operation at start-up

• Note that binding pin plug cords together with power supply
cords or placing them near a power transformer will result in
generating hum or other noise.
• Noise or humming may be generated if a connected audio
equipment is used independently without turning the power of
this unit on. If this happens, turn on the power of the this unit .
