Features
High quality sound
0
Equipped with a digital amplifier with high audio quality and high
output
This unit has a 50 W+50 W (6 Ω/ohms) high-output class D amplifier.
Full digital processing is used to perform all processes in the digital
domain during playback of digital sources, eliminating external noise.
Pattern minimizing is also used to achieve high-quality playback.
0
Support for High Quality Audio playback via USB and networks
This unit supports the playback of high resolution audio formats such as
DSD (2.8/5.6 MHz) and WAV/FLAC/Apple Lossless Audio Codec
(ALAC) files up to 192 kHz/24 bits.
0
Adoption of a parallel BTL and bi-amp system that realizes high
quality audio
[Parallel BTL]
Normally, a single channel is driven by two amplifiers, but with parallel
BTL, a single channel is driven by four amplifiers to reduce output
impedance and improve the damping factor. This realizes sound quality
with damping force.
[Bi-amp]
The low and high range speaker units of bi-amp compatible speakers
are each driven by independent amps to eliminate interference and
realize audio playback that is more faithful to the source.
0
Bluetooth OFF mode for highest sound performance
The Bluetooth OFF mode is used to turn off the Bluetooth function, as
this function is a source of noise that affects sound quality. Suppressing
this noise enables high sound performance playback.

0
Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord is connected. Doing so
could result in electric shock.
0
Use speakers with an impedance of 4 – 16 Ω/ohms.
Connecting the speaker cables
Connect the speaker cable to the + speaker terminal (red) and the -
speaker terminal (black).
1
Peel off about 3/8 inch (10 mm) of sheathing from the
tip of the speaker cable, then twist the core wire tightly.
2
Turn the speaker terminal counterclockwise to loosen
it.

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.

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.
Speaker impedance
This is an AC resistance value, indicated in Ω (ohms).
Greater power can be obtained when this value is smaller.
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-PSK/WPA2-PSK (Pre-shared Key)
This is a simple authentication system for mutual authentication when a
preset character string matches on the wireless LAN access point and
client.
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.
