You can exchange discs while playing or selecting another disc. Some DVD Audio discs prohibit downmix. When you playback such a disc, LR ONLY appears on the display and the System plays back the left front and right front signals. When playing back a DVD Audio disc recorded in MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing; a lossless audio compression system that can completely recreate the PCM signal), the signals are recognized as the linear PCM signals, however, no indicator lights up on the display. This System can recognize up to tracks in a disc. Also, the System can recognize up to 150 tracks per group and up to 99 groups in a disc. If there are any unplayable files in a folder, those files are also counted in the total file number. Playable files which do not belong to any groups are handled as Group 1. For DVD-VR playback. This System can play only a disc of UDF-Bridge format. For details about DVD-VR format and playlist, refer to the manual of the recording equipment. You cannot use reverse slow motion, Program Play, or Random Play. For MP3/WMA playback. MP3/WMA discs require a longer readout time than regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/ file configuration.) Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be skipped. This results from their recording processes and conditions. This System can play only a disc of ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2. This System can playback MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter caseupper/lower). It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at a bit rate of 128 kbps. This System cannot playback files made at a bit rate of less than 64 kbps. For JPEG files playback. It is recommended that you record a file at 640 x 480 resolution. (If a file has been recorded at a resolution of more than 640 x 480, it will take a long time to be shown.) This System can play only baseline JPEG files*. Progressive JPEG files* or lossless JPEG files* cannot be played. * Baseline JPEG format: Used for digital cameras, web, etc. Progressive JPEG format: Used for web. Lossless JPEG format: An old type and rarely used now.
UX-G70[J].book Page 33 Monday, April 3, 2006 4:46 PM
This System can playback JPEG files with the extension code <.jpg> or <.jpeg> (regardless of the letter case upper/lower). This System may not playback JPEG files properly if they are recorded on a device other than a digital still camera. During slide-show playback, zoom cannot be operated. Playing Back a Portable Audio Device: When QP Link fails due to a weak sound signal from the LINE IN jack, Auto Standby may turn the System off even if you can hear the sound from the speakers. In such cases, adjust the volume level of the component louder so that the System can detect the sound signal properly. Changing from LINE to another source while QP Link works will deactivate QP Link temporarily. In this case, the following reactivates QP Link: Pressing QP LINK on the remote control. Unplugging the component from the LINE IN jack, then plugging it again. If you press STANDBY to turn the System off or if preset Timer turns the System off while QP Link works, the System will deactivate QP Link temporarily. In such cases, the following reactivates QP Link: When no sound signal comes from the LINE IN jack for about 30 seconds after the System is turned off. When you turn on the power again. QP Link may start working when you just plug in the component to the LINE IN jack or unplug it. This is not a malfunction. Enjoying a video game: When enjoying a game with your video game connected to this System, connect this System and your TV with the composite video cable. Connect your video game and this System with the cable compatible with your video game. Sound Turbo II, AHB Pro and BASS/TREBLE settings are not available when GAME is selected as the source. However, you can adjust BASS/TREBLE setting with G5 MANUAL selected. Playing Back from the PC: Check if your PC equipped with the CD-ROM drive is running on WindowsR 98*, WindowsR 98SE*, WindowsR Me*, WindowsR 2000*, or WindowsR XP* and prepare its CD-ROM. *MicrosoftR, WindowsR 98, WindowsR 98SE, WindowsR Me, WindowsR 2000 and WindowsR XP are registered trademarks of Microsoft corporation. DO NOT turn off the System or disconnect the USB cable while installing the drivers or until your PC has recognized the System. Use a full speed USB cable (version 1.1). If your PC does not recognize the System, disconnect the USB cable and connect it again. If this does not work, restart Windows.

Maintenance

To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs and mechanism clean.

Handling discs

Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing the center hole lightly. Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc. Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping. Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperature, and moisture. To clean the disc: Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.
Setup Menu Operations (see pages 30 and 31)
General: If the upper and lower parts of the menu are cut off, adjust the picture size control of the TV. LANGUAGE menu: When the language you have selected for MENU LANGUAGE, AUDIO LANGUAGE, or SUBTITLE is not recorded on a disc, the original language is used as the initial language. PICTURE menuMONITOR TYPE: Even if 4:3 PS is selected, the screen size may become 4:3 letter box while playing a disc. This depends on how the discs are recorded. When you select 16:9 for a picture whose aspect ratio is 4:3, the picture slightly changes due to the process for converting the picture width. OTHERS menuON SCREEN GUIDE: The setup menu and on-screen bar will be displayed (and recorded) even though this function is set to OFF. Subtitles and the information for zoom-in always appear on the display regardless of this setting.

UX-G70 MICRO COMPONENT SYSTEM

MICRO SYSTEMS setting up just about any ordinary DVD player. As soon as this was done and I was nicely settled down, I selected the first of the DVDs that I had loaded into the DVD section of the unit. My initial impression was mild surprise, as I hadnt quite expected the image quality to be quite as good as it was. I had by the way connected the UX-G70 to my television via a SCART to S-Video adaptor. Shrek and Donkey were vividly displayed, and I could see good overall detail on the screen. Image movement was smooth and from my viewing position scan lines were invisible. Image quality was also good on live action DVDs with skin tones and the like being natural looking. On the sound front, when watching DVDs, the JVC performed best when Sound Turbo II was selected.This acted like a hyperactive loudness control hence the Turbo in its name and added huge dollops of low(ish), mid and high frequency boost for a lively and enjoyable movie experience. I did however find Sound Turbo II to be al little over the top when listening to music, as it tended to be a little too artificial sounding when, for example, I was listening to a small jazz ensemble. While I was impressed with the sound, this was in context of it being delivered by a Micro system.This means that you couldnt fairly compare the sound to a dedicated and far more costly stereo or home theatre system. In this respect, the ability to play DVD-Audio discs is an added feature, and in my opinion not necessarily one that will deliver major sonic benefits. Overall, and as you can see, the JVC UX-G70 is a good looking and sounding system that will work well as a secondary system. It may however be a little pricey for some.

JVC UX-G70

FIVE IN ONE

o the home theatre purist the absolute minimum number of speakers a system can have is six (Front, centre, surround and sub). Many people dont have the required space for all the supposedly required speakers, and some feel that two speakers and a television will do just fine. For the latter group of people JVC has released the UX-G70 Micro Component System that comprises an integrated five-disc DVD changer, stereo amplifier and tuner, and a pair of speakers. Despite its Micro billing, the UX-G70 packs a whole bunch of heavyweight features, and these include DVD-Audio playback, 192 kHz/ 24-bit digital to analogue converters, and a 108 MHz/12-bit video D to A converter. Other notable inclusions to the units spec is the capability to play most disc-based formats, a USB input for receiving signals from PCs, a digital output, progressive scan video out, and Sound Turbo II. Power with a distortion limit of 10% at 1 kHz was rated at 60 watts RMS per channel. Such a high distortion limit would certainly be out of place on a dedicated AV receiver, but it is fairly common to see such a limit on micro systems. It also means that undistorted power would be less than this rating. On the visual front, the 175 mm wide, 250 mm high and 411 mm deep UX-G 70 is attractive. Living at the top front panel is the relatively large display. Below this are three buttons on a slanted panel Sound Turbo II, power, and TV Sound. Next up (or should that be down as they are below the three buttons already mentioned) is the main control section of the UX-G70. This section includes the five direct access buttons for the DVD changer.The individual trays that these control reside behind a flip down flap.Also behind a flip panel, and just below the DVD trays, are the line in and out connectors, headphone out, and USB connector. The rear of the UX-G70 is home to a SCART connector, component video out, optical digital out, antenna sockets, dual springloaded speaker connectors, which connect the UX-G70 to the supplied three-way speakers, and a subwoofer out. These feature neat looking pop off grilles, rear firing ports, and are video shielded. As one would expect, the compact UX-G70

VERDICT The JVC UX-G70 offers the advantage of being able to load five discs, being able to play DVD-Audio, and being compact. The fact that it is a stereo device may limit its appeal to some. PRICE.. RSUPPLIED BY Nu World Industries 011-321-2111
is supplied with a fairly compact remote control, which I found a little confusing and difficult to use.This was mainly due to the button count I counted 48 and the fact that some of the buttons have dual functions too. Once I had found all the relevant buttons on the remote, I set about setting up the system, which thankfully proved to be as simple as
