13. Tone control for bass (BASS)
Controls the frequency characteristics in the low-frequency
range.
When this switch is set to the center position, flat frequency
characteristic is obtained. Rotating the switch clockwise
causes the low-frequency range to be enhanced, and rotat-
ing the switch counterclockwise causes the low-frequency
range to be attenuated.
When the line straight switch is set to on, this switch does
not function.
14. Speaker selector (SPEAKERS)
Selects either of 2 speaker systems, A or B, located at the
rear panel.
OFF: Activates only headphones. No sound is gener-
ated from any speakers.
A: Selects the A system speaker terminal.
B: Selects the B system speaker terminal.
A+B: Simultaneously activates both A and B system
speakers. When both speaker terminals are si-
multaneously used, select speakers with imped-
ance of 8 ohms or more because both output
terminals are connected in parallel.
15. Recording switch (REC OUT)
Sends recording signals to the recorder connected to this
unit.
OFF: Does not send recording signals to the recorder
output terminals on the rear panel.
When not using the recorder, set the recording
switch to this position.
ON: Selects an input source to be recorded with the
input selector and sends recording signals to the
recorder connected the recorder output terminals
of this unit.
16. Cartridge selector (CARTRIDGE)
Changes the gain level of the equalizer amplifier (amplifier
circuit required to play an analog record).
MC: Selects an MC (moving coil) type cartridge of low
output voltage.
Be aware that the sound volume becomes higher
and unbalanced sound without high frequencies
is generated owing to the impedance when “MC”
is selected during use of the MM type cartridge.
MM: Selects an MM (moving magnet) type cartridge of
high output voltage.
17. Monitor switch (MONITOR)
Toggles between use and nonuse of the monitor input ter-
minals (MONITOR) on the rear panel.
on : Enables to reproduce the data from the recorder.
off : Enables to reproduce the data from the source
selected with the input selector.
• Every pressing of this switch toggles the monitor on and
off.
The monitor indicator lights up when the monitor switch
is on.
