Super A Anti-Distortion Expands To Five Channels In JVCís New Top-Line Rx-9000vbk A/V Control Receiver
JVC takes the clean sound of Advanced Super A design to five channels in its new flagship multi-room/multi-source audio/video control receiver, the RX-9000VBK. Advanced Super A design eliminates the crossover and switching distortion normally associated with high-efficiency Class AB amplifiers. The RX-9000VBK, with built-in Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround decoding, is compatible with multichannel audio and has 5.1-channel analog input and five separate amps. Tested under all conditions, the fully discrete 120WX2 (100X5) amplifier section is FTC rated into 8 ohms or 4 ohms. Built-in multi-room/multi-source capabilities are conveniently controlled by an RF/IR multi-brand A/V-CATV DBS remote unit. The RX-9000VBK can send different programs to separate locations - for example, video sound to the den while CD-audio-output is playing in a bedroom. The remote also controls TV Auto On, for use with any brand TV, and all JVC A/V COMPU LINK ""one-touch"" home theater automation systems. JVCís RX-9000VBK has a multitude of video switching capabilities, with five video inputs, including four S-video, and four audio inputs which are gold plated for optimum conductivity. In addition, one coaxial and three optical digital inputs are assignable for DBS, CD, MD and DVD, as needed. The digital inputs feed JVCís legendary K2 interface, which compensates for the inherent jitter and distortion found in digital information. The K2 interface completely recreates the incoming digital signal before it reaches the D/A converter. This new ""exact"" copy allows the D/A converter to create a more expansive and resolute soundstage on all six channels: front right, center and left, rear left and right and (.1) subwoofer. The JVC RX-9000VBK has many ease-of-use features. TEXT COMPU LINK displays CD text or programmed title information on the receiverís fluorescent display and built-in multi-color OSD. Users can see title information even when CD changers are placed out of sight, and select and categorize titles via the OSD and remote. Other notable features include 1-bit P.E.M. D.D. converter for all six channels and banana-plug speaker terminals with five-way binding plugs for added integrity. The JVC RX-9000VBK will be available in April for a nationally advertised value of $750.
