DENON LINK connections

• High quality digital sound with reduced digital signal transfer loss can be enjoyed by connecting a separately
sold DENON LINK compatible DVD player.
• Digital transfer and multi-channel playback of DVD Audio discs and other multi-channel sources is possible by
connecting the AVC-A11XV to a DENON DVD player equipped with a DENON LINK connector using the
connection cable included with the DVD player.
• When a DENON DVD player and the DENON LINK have been connected, be sure to make a setting to "DENON
LINK" with the System Setup Digital In Assignment (
• With discs on which special copyright protection measures have been taken, however, the digital signals may
not be output from the DVD player. In this case, connect the DVD player's analog multi-channel output to the
AVC-A11XV's EXT. IN terminals for playback.
Also refer to your DVD player's operating instructions.
2 DENON LINK 3rd Edition
Super Audio CDs have certain rules for digital signal transfer designed to protect copyrights. In order to receive
permission for the transfer of the multi-channel digital signals of Super Audio CDs, DENON has proposed to
Super Audio CD licensors and content holders the DENON LINK (3rd Edition), and approval procedures are now
underway. Once these approval procedures are completed and official approval for the digital transfer of Super
Audio CD signals with DENON LINK is received, it will be possible to transfer the digital signals of Super Audio
CDs to the AVC-A11XV from players equipped with DENON LINK (3rd Edition).

The AVC-A11XV is HDMI Ver. 1.1 compatible.
NOTE:
• The audio signals on the multi/stereo area of Super Audio CDs are not output. If the Super Audio CD is a
hybrid CD, only the audio signals in the CD area are output.
• Use a compatible player to play DVD Audio discs that are copyright protected by CPPM.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector;
however, the AVC-A11XV cannot be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be
limited by the equipment that is connected.
• The video signals are not output properly if a device not compatible with HDCP is used.
• Use an HDMI monitor compatible with an HDMI input resolution of 480i or 576i.
• The video signals input from the HDMI or DVI-D input terminals are output to the HDMI monitor with their
original resolution, so the image will not be displayed if the resolutions of the input signal and the monitor
being used are not matched. In this case, change the setting of the resolution on the source device (player)
to one which the monitor can handle.
• For stable signal transfer, we recommend using cables that are a maximum of 5 meters in length.
