Introduction
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to obtain the best possible performance
from your unit, and retain this manual for future reference.
Features
CC (Compensative Compression) Converter
CC Converter eliminates jitter and ripples, achieving a drastic
reduction in digital distortion by processing the digital music data
in 24 bit–quantization and by expanding the sampling frequency
to 128 kHz (for fs 32 kHz signals)/176.4 kHz (for fs 44.1 kHz
signals)/192 kHz (for fs 48 kHz signals). By using the CC
Converter, you can obtain a natural sound field from any source.
(See page 19 for details.)
K2 technology
K2 technology has been designed to enable natural audio
reproduction, achieving a drastic reduction in digital distortion
and creating original sound ambience with high precision.
Compatible with various audio formats including
DTS 96/24
RX-8030VBK allows you to enjoy a newly introduced audio
format such as Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic II, DTS-ES,
DTS Neo:6, and DTS 96/24.
• This unit is also compatible with Dual Mono signals recorded in
Dolby Digital and DTS discs.
DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)
Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience
recreation of existing theaters and halls. Thanks to the high-
performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity
memory, you can enjoy multi-channel surround sound by playing
2-channel or multi-channel software according to the speaker
setting.
Multi-channel headphone virtual surround
sound—3D HEADPHONE Mode
The built-in headphone virtual surround system is compatible with
Multi-channel software like Dolby Digital, DTS Surround, etc.
Thanks to the new signal processing algorithms used by the high-
performance DSP, you can enjoy a natural surround sound through
the headphones.

systems
These COMPU LINK remote control systems allow you to
operate other JVC’s audio/video components from this receiver.
Precautions
Power sources
• When unplugging the receiver from the wall outlet, always pull
the plug, not the AC power cord.
• Do not handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
• If you are not going to operate the receiver for an extended period
of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.
Ventilation
High power amplifiers built in this receiver will generate heat inside
the cabinet. For safety, observe the following carefully.
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor
ventilation could overheat and damage the receiver.
• Do not block the ventilation openings or holes. (If the ventilation
openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the
heat may not be able to get out.)
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall onto the unit, unplug the
unit and consult your dealer before operating any further.
• Do not expose this apparatus to rain, moisture, dripping or
splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases
shall be placed on the apparatus.
• Do not disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable
parts inside.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your
JVC dealer.

Connecting the Speakers
You can connect the following speakers:
•Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.
•One pair of surround speakers to enjoy the surround effect.
•One surround back speaker or one pair of surround back speakers
to enjoy to produce more effective surround effect.
•One center speaker to emphasize human voices.
•One subwoofer to enhance the bass.
CAUTION:
Use only the speakers of the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by
the speaker terminals.
•When connecting to both of the FRONT SPEAKERS 1and 2
terminals, use speakers with an impedance of 16 Ωto 32 Ω.
•When connecting to either the FRONT SPEAKERS 1or 2
terminals, use speakers with an impedance of 8 Ωto 16 Ω.
Basic connecting procedure
1 Twist and remove the insulation at the end of
each speaker signal cable (not supplied).
2 Open the speaker terminal.
3 Insert the speaker signal cable.
4 Close the speaker terminal.

AM Antenna Connections
Turn the loop until you have the
best reception.
AM Loop Antenna
(supplied)
Snap the tabs on the loop into the slots
of the base to assemble the AM loop.
Outdoor single vinyl-covered wire (not supplied)
Notes:
• If the AM loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl, remove
the vinyl by twisting it as illustrated.
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any
other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This
could cause poor reception.

Placing speakers
Front speakers and center speaker
•Place these speakers (position of the mid-range speaker units) at the same
height from the floor.
•Point these speakers aiming at the listener’s ears.
Surround and surround back speakers
•Place these speakers at a position which is 1 meter higher than the listener’s
ears.
•Point these speakers down aiming at the listener’s ears.
Subwoofer
•You can place it wherever you like since bass sound is non-directional.
Normally place it in front of you.
Note:
Ideal speaker layout requires that all speakers be placed at the same distance
from the listener. However, since in some places it may be difficult to fulfil this
requirement, this unit can adjust the delay time so that the sounds through all the
speakers reach the listener with the same timing. (See page 26.)
Subwoofer
IMPORTANT:
After connecting the speakers, set the speaker installation
information properly. You can use Quick Speaker Setup for
easy speaker installation information setting (see page 23).
•To obtain the best possible Surround/DSP effect, see “Setting
the Speakers”on page 25.
