Operations
Before operation
1. Ensure that the connections are correctly performed.
(Normal playback cannot be achieved with wrong con-
nections of R and L.)
2. When the power is toggled between on and off or the in-
put selector is changed over, set the volume control to the
minimum position in advance.
Playback procedure
1. Press the operation switch to turn on the switch after
ensuring that the volume control is set to the minimum
position.
2. Select a source to be reproduced with the input selector.
3. Adjust the sound level with the volume control.
4. Operate the line straight switch, balance control, tone
control, and the like according to the source to be played
back.
How to operate line straight switch
(LINE STRAIGHT)
The line straight switch is used to play sound with the shortest
signaling route for enhancing the purity of the source selected
with the input selector. When this switch is set to on, the
tone control and balance control are bypassed. When the line
straight switch is set to on, the tone control (BASS, TREBLE)
and balance control (BALANCE) cannot be adjusted.
How to operate balance control
(BALANCE)
The balance control allows users to adjust the balance of
sound volume between right and left channels.
When the balance adjustment is not required, the balance
control is set to the center position.
When the line straight switch (LINE STRAIGHT) is set to on,
the right and left sound volumes cannot be changed even if
the balance control (BALANCE) is operated.
How to operate tone control
(BASS, TREBLE)
This unit has the tone control function for the low-frequency
and high frequency ranges.
The low-frequency tone control (BASS) is a function to adjust
the tone range lower than the selected one with the selector
switch (FREQUENCY/Hz for low-frequency).
The tone control is set to flat frequency characteristics at
the center position. Rotating the control clockwise makes
the low-frequency range enhanced, and rotating the control
counterclockwise makes the low-frequency range attenuated.
The high-frequency tone control (TREBLE) is a function to
adjust the tone range higher than the selected one with the
selector switch (FREQUENCY/Hz for high-frequency).
The tone control is set to flat frequency characteristics at
the center position. Rotating the control clockwise makes
the high–frequency range enhanced, and rotating the
control counterclockwise makes the high-frequency range
attenuated.
For both the low-frequency and high-frequency ranges, the
right and left channels interlockingly function.
When the line straight switch (LINE STRAIGHT) is set to on,
the bass and treble levels are not changed even if the tone
control is operated.
