Using Your New Kenwood Audio-Video
Receiver
Welcome to the Users' Guide for your new Kenwood Audio-Video Receiver.
The VR-5900 connects all your current audio and video components. It
allows you to control them all with Kenwood's remarkable PowerTouch
III touch screen remote--a graphical user interface without having to use
your TV!
The VR-5900 adds dual-zone/dual-source operation, letting you play two
different A/V sources independently in two different rooms! For a match
made in "dual-zone heaven," add Kenwood's dual-transport CD-2280M,
or CD-3280M 200-Disc CD Changer to the VR-5900.
