Product Description
The JVC RX-5000VBK Audio/Video Surround Sound Receiver is packed with performance. JVC has created a solid foundation for great sound with an amplifier that uses discrete output devices for all five channels. Power output is an impressive 100 Watts Per Channel, even when using all five channels for surround sound.
Amazon.com Product Description
JVC's RX-5000VBK surround receiver is a wonderful low-cost, entry-level receiver offering 5.1-channel analog inputs (primarily for use with a Dolby Digital- or DTS-decoding DVD player) and Dolby Pro Logic decoding (for use with surround-encoded VHS videocassettes and many TV broadcasts). It also outputs 100 watts per channel for each of its five main channels: left, center, right, and left and right surrounds. The RX-5000VBK's AM/FM tuner offers 30 FM and 15 AM station presets.
Again, the RX-5000VBK is Dolby Digital compatible in that its 5.1-channel inputs accept analog audio signals from decoded Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel digital surround sound--there are no digital inputs for receiving these signals directly from a DVD player's digital output. Having these inputs instead of a fixed surround-decoding chip is convenient, however, in that you're not limited to amplifying any one or two surround sound formats; the RX-5000VBK will be compatible with DVD-audio and other possible formats.
JVC, in typical deference to sound quality and good taste, uses five discrete amplifiers rather than using integrated circuits, a cheaper approach to signal routing.
Dolby Pro Logic decoding unfolds matrixed four-channel material from specially encoded two-channel signals for left, center, right, and a monaural surround signal (which is sent to both of your rear speakers). JVC's digital audio processor delivers sounds sculpted to re-create the reflections and reverberations that make live performances so satisfying. The RX-5000VBK includes five sound field patterns: theater, hall, live club, pavilion, and dance club.
3D-Phonic virtual Dolby simulates surround effects from just the two front speakers: dialogue is fixed on the center, making the TV screen a virtual sound source, while the surround components are synthesized by the digital signal processor and then mixed with the front signals and played back through the two front speakers.
Electronic bass and treble controls allow you to customize the sound to your liking. The JVC RX-5000VBK has enough audio-video inputs and outputs to hook up a DVD player, a video game system, a second VCR, or a camcorder. The Compu Link feature lets you run your entire home theater system with a single remote control.
JVC provides a two-year warranty on parts and labor.
