Sound Optimization
K2 Technology for Enhanced Digital Sound Quality
K2 is a JVC original technology that reproduces the original master sound by expanding the frequency range. For example, K2 will expand the digital data of the audio CD recorded at 44.1kHz to 192kHz. It is also possible to recreate the high-frequency range above 20kHz that is cut during the CD formatting.
Time Alignment
By selecting the speaker type and the distance to the center of the listening position, the receiver will automatically adjust the timing of the sound output from each of the speakers so that the sound from each of the speakers will arrive exactly at the same time to the listening position.
The different distances from each speaker to driver cause the delay of sound.
The Time Alignment allows you to digitally delay the closest speakers so that every speaker reaches your ears at the same time.
Space Enhancement
Space Enhancement is a virtual surround technology using 2 speakers. Simply select the vehicle size, and the receiver automatically adjusts the sound effectively.
Sound Response
This function boosts the low frequencies which can be lost during compression to MP3 or AAC.
Sound Lift
Virtually manipulate the height of the speakers by adjusting the sound frequencies.
Volume Link EQ
Volume Link EQ boosts specific frequencies in the audio signal to compensate for the impact of road noise. It boosts frequencies in the music that are affected by road noise.
13-Band Equalizer
Use the 13-Band Equalizer to manually adjust the sound to your taste.
Bluetooth® Control
