1. PRECAUTIONS

1. The DVH943 can easily be damaged by moisture, high temperatures or high humidity.

Keep the inside of the car clean and well ventilated.

2. Never subject the DVH943 to strong shocks or open its case. Doing so may result in damage.

3. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe dirt off the

DVH943. Never use a hard cloth or thinner, alcohol, etc. For tough dirt, apply some cold or lukewarm water to a soft cloth and wipe off the dirt gently.

4. When the main unit is switched to the traffic announcement or PTY interrupt reception while using the DVH943, the effect from

DVH943 doesn’t work.

5. Some tracks may sound distored when adjustment; this is normal and not a cause for concern.

CAUTION

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT

EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE

MANUFACTURER FOR COMPLIANCE COULD

VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE

THE EQUIPMENT.

INFORMATION FOR USERS:

CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS

2. FEATURES

■

Onboard DTS/Dolby Digital/Pro Logic II Decoder

• Independent playback of DVD video surround format DTS, Dolby Digital 5.1ch.

• Utilizes Pro Logic II with advanced digital matrix technology for 5.1 channel decoding of 2channel CD and radio.

■

Newly developed 32-bit DSP LSI with advanced processing performance

• DSF function allows application of 6 sound field effect patterns following decoding of DTS,

Dolby Digital 5.1ch format, or Dolby Pro Logic II signals.

• The parametric equalizer function allows you to adjust the frequency characteristics to suit the car.

■

High precision 96 kHz / 24 bit D/A converter used in all channels

■

New-type digital input connectors

• New digital input connectors support sampling rate of 96 kHz.

32 kHz: MP3 etc.

44.1 kHz: CD, CD-R, CD-RW, MD

48 kHz: DVD video

96 kHz: DVD video

■

Supports analog input connectors (RCA 2ch)

(when optional control unit is connected)

• When centre unit or other RCA 2ch output is connected to analog input connectors, Dolby Pro

Logic II function can convert to 5.1ch output.

■

Thin-line chassis can be installed beneath seat.

■

DTS

• DTS (Digital Theater System) is an audio compression technology developed by Digital

Theater Systems, Inc. Its low compression ratio provides a higher quantity of data and thus higher quality sound.

∗ Manufactured under license from Digital Theater Systems, Inc. US Pat. No. 5,451,942,

5,956,674, 5,974,380, 5,978,762 and other world-wide patents issued and pending.

■

Dolby Pro Logic II

• Using the newest in digital matrix technology, Dolby Pro Logic II is a matrix decoder technology which further improves earlier Dolby Pro Logic. This new technology produces superb 5.1ch

sound even with CDs and other stereo sources.

The surround channel is converted to full-band (20 Hz-20 kHz) stereo, thus allowing stereo sources to be enjoyed with the impact of 5.1ch sound. Four modes can be set in accordance with the playback source, including MUSIC mode, MATRIX mode, MOVIE mode, and

VIRTUAL mode.

• Dolby Digital is a totally discrete digital 5.1 channel format. Signals for the front 3 channels, 2 surround channels, and the low-frequency 0.1 channel are recorded discretely, so no crosstalk occurs between channels, and the sense of placement and depth of the sounds is reproduced faithfully.

4. CONFIRM BEFORE OPERATION

This component does not operate independently as an stand-alone unit and must be used in conjunction with an operational Clarion Source Unit (CeNET supported), or a 5.1 CH surround decoder control unit (DVC923).

See section “8. SYSTEM EXPANSION” (P. 14) for details regarding other compatible components.

■

CeNET Cable

The CeNET cable used must not be over 20 m long (including the length of the CeNET branch cable

CCA-519). When making connections be sure that your cable length is not over 20 m.

■

Optical Digital Cables (sold separately or furnished)

Optical digital cables (sold separately or furnished) connected to this unit differ depending on the model of CeNET component involved.

Consult your dealer regarding the kind of optical digital cable required for your component.

Likewise, consult the operating instructions accompanying your component for details regarding connections.

Speaker System

• To get maximum enjoyment from the sound-field functions of this component, the use of a 5.1ch speaker system is recommended. To demonstrate optimum audio response, modify the adjust mode’s default settings for “SP-SEL,”

“FILTER,” “SP-GAIN,” and “DELAY” in accordance with the composition of your speaker system (see P.8-10).

Note that in order to play 2-ch sound sources (music CDs, etc.) in 5.1ch mode, one of the Dolby Pro Logic II modes must be selected, or DSF must be set to ON

(see P. 7).

■

DVD Video

• When playing a DTS-compatible DVD video or music CD, some noise may be heard for the short interval required for this unit to detect the DTS signal.

• During playback of Dolby digital or DTS source, some sound interruption may be heard if the search/skip/pause modes are operated before playback.

■

Digital Inputs (When Optical Digital Cable is Connected)

• When optical digital cable is used to connect components like a DVD changer, the digital signals are given precedence in processing.

• When Dolby Digital (other than 2ch), DTS, Linear PCM (96 kHz) or other digital signals are input, the Dolby Pro Logic II mode can be selected, but the mode will not perform ordinary audio processing.

• When MP3 (32 kHz) and Linear PCM (96 kHz) digital signals are input, the Parametric

Equalizer (P.EQ) function can be operated, but it will not perform audio processing.
