Switch the connection for each input source of the unit
When the analog audio output terminal (FIXED) of the unit is connected to the CD input terminal of the amplifier and the analog audio output terminal
(VARIABLE) is connected to the power amplifier input terminal of the amplifier, the analog audio output terminal (VARIABLE/FIXED) used for each
input source of the unit can be set.
For example, the audio of the CD can be input to the CD input terminal of the amplifier, and the audio of the HDMI ARC can be input to the power
amplifier input terminal of the amplifier.
When listening to CDs, the volume of the amplifier can be adjusted with the VOLUME n and o buttons on the remote control, and when watching TV
via HDMI ARC, the volume of the audio signal output from the unit can be adjusted with the TV remote control.

Filter
This unit is equipped with a sound quality adjusting function which allows
users to enjoy the desired playback sound quality. The unit supports PCM
signal.

Offers a short impulse response for both
pre-echo and post-echo. Large amount of
audio information clearly reproduces deep

Filter 2:
This characteristic is known as
asymmetrical impulse response. The post
echo is slightly longer than the pre-echo.
The sound characteristics is more analog
like.
Lock Range
Narrowing down the “Lock Range” setting reduces jittering, providing
clearer sound. However, if the “Lock Range” is set too narrow, it may
cause intermittent sounds and noise during playback or when switching to
a song with a different sampling frequency. If this occurs, broaden the
“Lock Range” setting until the music you are listening to sounds normal.

After performing the Factory Restore, various settings are reset to the default settings. Configure the network settings and update the firmware again.
CONNECT
WARNING
By initiating Factory Restore mode, you will be installing limited
recovery firmware on this unit. Functionality will remain limited
until a firmware update is performed over the Internet. Do not
perform a Factory Restore if you do not have this unit connected
to your home network.
1
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
2
Plug in the power cord while holding down CONNECT.
3
When “Factory Restore” appears on the display,
release the buttons.
When the Factory Restore is complete, “Factory Restore
Completed” appears on the display for about 5 seconds, and the unit
automatically restarts.
0
This operation takes time because it requires reconnecting to the network,
restoring and updating the firmware.
0
If this operation does not improve the problem, contact our customer service
center.
NOTE
0
Do not turn off the power until the Factory Restore is complete.

Playback order of music files
When there are multiple folders containing music files, the playback order
of folders is automatically set when this unit reads the media. Files in each
folder are played in alphabetical order of file name.
CD-R/CD-RW
For playback of files on CD-R or CD-RW, files in all folders on the first
layer are played first, next on the second layer, then next on the third layer,
and so on in this order.

About discs and files
Music files recorded on CD-R/CD-RW are divided into large segments
(folders) and small segments (files). Files are stored in folders, and folders
can be placed for storage in a hierarchy. The unit can recognize up to 16
levels of folders.

Audio
AIFF Audio Interchange File Format
This is an uncompressed and lossless format for digital audio. Use AIFF
files to burn high-quality audio CDs from imported songs. AIFF files use
approximately 10 MB of disk space per minute.
Apple Lossless Audio Codec
This is a codec for lossless audio compression method developed by
Apple Inc. This codec can be played back on iTunes, iPod or iPhone. Data
compressed to approximately 60 – 70 % can be decompressed to exactly
the same original data.
DSD (Direct-Stream Digital)
One of the audio data recording methods, it is the signal aspect used to
store audio signals on a super audio CD, and is Δ-Σ modulated digital
audio.
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec)
FLAC stands for Free lossless Audio Codec, and is a lossless free audio
file format. Lossless means that the audio is compressed without any loss
in quality.
The FLAC license is as shown below.

Linear PCM
This is an uncompressed PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) signal. Unlike
lossy compression audio sources such as MP3, no audio quality or
dynamic range deteriorates.
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3)
This is an internationally standardized audio data compression scheme,
using the “MPEG-1” video compression standard. It compresses the data
volume to about one eleventh its original size while maintaining sound
quality equivalent to a music CD.
MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), MPEG-2, MPEG-4
These are the names for digital compression format standards used for
the encoding of video and audio. Video standards include “MPEG-1
Video”, “MPEG-2 Video”, “MPEG-4 Visual”, “MPEG-4 AVC”. Audio
standards include “MPEG-1 Audio”, “MPEG-2 Audio”, “MPEG-4 AAC”.
WMA (Windows Media Audio)
This is the audio compression technology developed by Microsoft
Corporation.
WMA data can be encoded using Windows Media
®
Player.
To encode WMA files, only use applications authorized by Microsoft
Corporation. If you use an unauthorized application, the file may not work
properly.

Sampling frequency
Sampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave (analog signal) at
regular intervals and expressing the height of the wave at each reading in
digitized format (producing a digital signal).
The number of readings taken in one second is called the “sampling
frequency”. The larger the value, the closer the reproduced sound is to the
original.
Dynamic range
The difference between the maximum undistorted sound level and the
minimum discernible level above the noise emitted by the device.
Bit rate
This expresses the read amount per 1 second of video/audio data
recorded in a disc. A larger number means higher sound quality, but also
means a larger file size.
o
Network
AirPlay
AirPlay sends (plays) contents recorded in iTunes or on an iPhone/iPod
touch to a compatible device via the network.
WEP Key (network key)
This is key information used for encrypting data when conducting data
transfer. On this unit, the same WEP key is used for data encryption and
decryption, so the same WEP key must be set on both devices in order for
communications to be established between them.
Wi-Fi
®
Wi-Fi Certification assures tested and proven interoperability by the Wi-Fi
Alliance, a group certifying interoperability among wireless LAN devices.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
This is a security standard established by the Wi-Fi Alliance. In addition to
the conventional SSID (network name) and WEP key (network key), it also
uses a user identification function and encrypting protocol for stronger
security.
WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2)
This is a new version of the WPA established by the Wi-Fi Alliance,
compatible with more secure AES encryption.

WPA/WPA2-Personal
This is a simple authentication system for mutual authentication when a
preset character string matches on the wireless LAN access point and
client.
WPA2/WPA3-Personal
WPA2/WPA3-Personal Mode was defined by Wi-Fi Alliance
®
to minimize
user disruption and provide a gradual migration path to WPA3-Personal
while maintaining interoperability with WPA2-Personal only devices.
WPA3-Personal
WPA3-Personal replaces the WPA2-Personal Pre-Shared Key (PSK)
authentication with Simultaneous authentication of equals (SAE). Unlike
PSK, SAE is resistant to offline dictionary attacks.
Network Names (SSID: Service Set Identifier)
When forming wireless LAN networks, groups are formed to prevent
interference, data theft, etc. These groups are based on “SSID (network
names)”. For enhanced security, a WEP key is set so that communication
is unavailable unless both the “SSID” and the WEP key match. This is
suitable for constructing a simplified network.
o
Other
Finalizing
This process enables DVD/CD recorded with a recorder to be played by
other players.
Pairing
Pairing (registration) is an operation that is required in order to connect a
Bluetooth device to this unit using Bluetooth. When paired, the devices
authenticate each other and can connect without mistaken connections
occurring.
When using Bluetooth connection for the first time, you need to pair this
unit and the Bluetooth device to be connected.
Protection circuit
This is a function to prevent damage to devices within the power supply
when an abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage occurs or over
temperature for any reason.
