12 USING THE NETWORK AUDIO FUNCTION
Internet radio function
The AVC-A1XVA can be connected to a network by cable to listen to Internet radio or music files stored on computers.
Internet radio refers to radio programs broadcast over the Internet.
There are many stations throughout the world broadcasting Internet radio programs. These stations are of all sizes and types, some run by
individuals, others by ground wave broadcast stations.
While ground wave radio stations can only be listened to within the range in which the waves reach, Internet radio can be listened to anywhere
in the world.
The AVC-A1XVA is equipped with the following Internet radio functions:
• Stations can be selected by genre and region.
• Up to 56 Internet radio stations can be preset.
• MP3 format Internet radio programs can be listened to.
• Your favorite radio stations can be registered by accessing the exclusive DENON Internet radio URL using a computer’s browser. (The AV
amplifier automatically downloads the registration settings (approximately once every other day).) (This is managed separately for each unit, so
a MAC address or e-mail address must be registered.) (See page 115)
