ENGLISH 3 CAUTIONS ON HANDLING • Switching the input function when input jacks are not connected A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components to the input jacks. • Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jacks and SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up is changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume. 4 FEATURES 1. Dolby Digital decoder Dolby Digital, a digital discrete system in which the different channels are completely independent, recreates "threedimensional" sound fields (sounds with a sense of distance, movement and position) with no crosstalk between channels for greater reality. In addition, the 5 channels (excluding the 0.1 channel for low frequency effects) have a playback range extending to 20 kHz, the same as the range of CDs, thus resulting in clearer, more richly expressive sound. 2. Dolby Pro Logic II decoder Dolby Pro Logic II is a new format for playing multichannel audio signals that offers improvements over conventional Dolby Pro Logic. It can be used to decode not only sources recorded in Dolby Surround but also regular stereo sources into five channels (front left/right, center and surround left/right). In addition, various parameters can be set according to the type of source and the contents, so you can adjust the sound field with greater precision. 3. DTS (Digital Theater Systems) DTS provides up to 5.1 channels of wide-range, high fidelity surround sound, from sources such as laser disc, DVD and specially-encoded music discs. 4. High performance DSP simulates 7 sound fields Playback is possible in 7 surround modes: 5-channel Stereo, Mono Movie, Rock Arena, Jazz Club, Video Game, Matrix and Virtual. You can enjoy a variety of sound effects for different movie scenes and program sources even with stereo sources not in Dolby Surround. • Whenever the power switch is in the STANDBY state, the apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage. Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for, say, a vacation. 5. Personal Memory Plus function Personal Memory Plus is an advanced version of Personal Memory. With Personal Memory Plus, the set automatically memorizes the surround mode and input mode for each of the separate input sources. 6. Remote control unit with pre-memory function This unit comes with a remote control unit equipped with a prememory function. The remote control command codes for DENON remote controllable components as well as for video decks, TVs, etc., of other major manufacturers are prestored in the memory. 7. 5-channel power amplifier The ADV-700 is equipped with a 35W + 35W (6 Ω/ohms, 1 kHz, T.H.D. 10%) 5-channel power amplifier, allowing 5.1-channel surround playback when used in combination with the super woofer. 8. Many convenient functions (1) Multiple audio function Selection of up to 8 audio languages. (The number of languages offered differs from DVD to DVD.) (2) Multiple subtitle function Selection of up to 32 subtitle languages. (The number of languages offered differs from DVD to DVD.) (3) Multiple angle function The angle of view can be changed.
