Page 14: About The Av1
More than just an audio and video control center, the AV1 offers the latest version of the critically acclaimed LOGIc7 decoding, which creates a 7.1-channel output signal from stereo, 5.1- and 6.1-channel sources.
Page 15: Highlights
TV signals. Both switchers are designed to pass video signals without alteration or degradation. Built to professional standards, the AV1 is designed to serve as the control center in any high-quality home theater. The most demand- ing enthusiast will be impressed with its unique combination of power, performance, flexibility and technological sophistication.
Page 16: Product Registration
Pay particular attention to instructions below and to other precautions that appear throughout this user guide. install the AV1 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table or shelf. The AV1 can also be installed in a standard 19-inch equip- ment rack using an optional rack-mount kit available from an authorized JBL dealer.
Page 17: Remote Control Battery Installation
The remote control requires two AA batteries. The batteries should be replaced as needed. Alkaline batteries, which last longer without leaking, are recommended. When battery power is low, the remote control enters a low-voltage condition, preventing it from operating the AV1. When this occurs, replace the batteries.

Selecting the SETUP menu SPEAKERS option opens the SPEAKER SETUP menu, which can be used to configure the audio output connectors for the desired speaker setup, set speaker distances and calibrate output levels. The AV1 has eight audio output connectors labeled Front L/R, Cen- ter, Subwoofer, Side L/R and Rear L/R.
Page 63 In general, low frequencies will be redirected from speakers with the highest crossover points to speakers with the lowest crossover points. Low- frequency signals lower than the lowest crossover point will be redirected to the subwoofer. If the lowest crossover point is FULL, low-frequency signals, excluding LFE information, will not be redirected to the subwoofer.
Page 64 Opens the FRONT L/R SPEAKERS menu, which is used to select a crossover point for the audio output connectors labeled Front L/R. When set to FULL, the AV1 sends a full-range audio output signal to these connectors. Otherwise, the AV1 activates a crossover point at the selected setting.
Page 65 Opens the CENTER SPEAKER menu, which is used to select a cross- over point for the audio output connector labeled Center. When set to FULL, the AV1 sends a full-range audio output signal to this con- nector. Otherwise, the AV1 activates a crossover point at the selected setting.

The AV1 ignores all CUSTOM SETUP menu parameter settings and applies a THX 80Hz crossover point with a 12dB-per-octave filter to all output connec- tors, except the output connector labeled Subwoofer, which is assigned a 24dB-per-octave filter.
Page 72 Opens the THX REAR SPEAKERS menu, which is used to activate and deactivate the audio output connectors labeled Rear L/R. When set to THX 80Hz, the AV1 activates these connectors and configures all audio output connectors for a 7.1-channel THX speaker setup.

The AV1 features a speaker distance control that allows distances to be entered for each speaker. This helps ensure accurate signal arrival time at the listening position, but is not a substitute for proper speaker placement.
Page 74 Defines the unit of measurement in which the AV1 measures speaker distances. When set to FEET, the AV1 measures speaker dis- tances in feet. When set to METERS, the AV1 measures speaker dis- tances in meters. When the UNITS parameter setting is toggled, the AV1 converts the current speaker distance to the closest available value in the selected unit of measurement.

LISTENING MODE ACTIVATION Listening modes are available for 2-channel, Dolby Digital, DTS(-ES) and analog input sources. The AV1 allows listening mode selection for all sources. In some cases, the AV1 automatically activates a listening mode in response to certain commands. For this reason, it is important to understand the three methods through which listening mode activation occurs.

Most films are mixed for movie theaters, and might sound too bright when played back in home theaters without re-equalization.

The sub- woofer channel is generated through bass management in the AV1. Option/Parameter OUTPUT LEVELS CUSTOM See “Listening Mode Menu Option &...
Page 107 The DTS Neo:6 listening modes cannot be assigned as the preferred listening mode for 2-channel sources. However, when the 2-CH parameter is set to USE LAST, the AV1 will automatically activate a DTS Neo:6 listening mode if a DTS Neo:6 listening mode was activated the last time a 2-channel source was present.

LISTENING MODE MENU OPTION & PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS 5 SPKR ENHANCE Simulates 7-channel playback in 5-channel speaker configurations. When set to ON, the AV1 provides an increased sense of spacious- ness and envelopment through the surround speakers. This enhancement is most noticeable when the surround speakers are positioned to the side of the primary listening position, or when the primary listening position is located against the rear wall.

Dolby Digital source recorded with or without Sur- round EX is detected. • The AV1 cannot automatically detect Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding in non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources. A non-flagged source does not include information in the input signal that identifies Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding.
Page 131: Master Level
LFE MIX -20.0dB or -10.0dB to +0.0dB Controls the output level of LFE information – the .1 channel in a 5.1- or 6.1-channel input source – that is sent to the audio output labeled Subwoofer. Low frequencies from up to seven other channels might be combined with the LFE information to create the subwoofer output signal, which significantly increases subwoofer output levels.
Page 132: Reset Mode
Simulates high-frequency rolloffs that occur in movie theaters. When set to ON, the AV1 applies a high-frequency filter. When set to OFF, the AV1 does not apply a high-frequency filter. It is recom- mended that you set this parameter to ON for film sources, as many films are mixed for movie theaters and might sound too bright when played back in home theaters without re-equalization.
Page 133 ROLLOFF Simulates the absorption of high frequencies in a real space. It is recommended that you begin with a low setting to simulate high- frequency absorbative spaces. SIDE L/R MODE ADJUST (Listening Mode) OUTPUT LEVELS Controls the output level of the audio output connector labeled Side L/R.
Page 134 Digital source with or without THX Surround EX encoding is detected. • The AV1 cannot automatically detect THX Surround EX encoding in non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources. A non-flagged source does not include information in the input signal that identifies THX Surround EX encoding.
