Explanation of terms

HDCP

When transmitting digital signals between devices,

this copyright protection technology encrypts

the signals to prevent content from being copied

without authorization.

HDMI

This is an abbreviation of High-Definition Multimedia

Interface, which is an AV digital interface that can

be connected to a TV or amplifier. Video signals and

audio signals can be connected using a single cable.

iTunes

iTunes is the name of the multimedia player

provided by Apple Inc. It enables management

and playback of multimedia contents including

music and movies. iTunes supports many main file

formats including AAC, WAV, and MP3.

LFE

This is an abbreviation of Low Frequency Effect,

which is an output channel that emphasizes

low frequency effect sound. Surround audio is

intensified by outputting 20 Hz to 120 Hz deep bass

to the system subwoofer(s).

MAIN ZONE

The room where this unit is placed is called the

MAIN ZONE .

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”.

Pairing

Pairing is an operation required for settings to

connect two Bluetooth devices. Pairing enables

Bluetooth devices to access each other.

Progressive (sequential scanning)

This is a scanning system of the video signal that

displays 1 frame of video as one image. Compared

to the interlace system, this system provides

images with less flickering and jagged edges.

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.

In this unit, the power indicator blinks and the unit

enters standby mode when an abnormality occurs.

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.

sYCC601 color

Like “x.v.Color”, each of these color spaces defines

a palette of available colors that is larger than the

traditional RGB color model.

vTuner

This is a free online content server for Internet

Radio. Note that usage fees are included in upgrade

costs.

This is a media player distributed free of charge by

Microsoft Corporation.

It can play playlists created with Ver.11 or later of

Windows Media Player, as well as WMA, DRM

WMA, WAV, and other files.

WMA (Windows Media Audio)

This is 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.
