Sansui SE-300 - Specifications

Operating
Procedures
——-
Operation of amplifier or receiver connected
Set the input selector or tape monitor switch to ‘“‘ON”’ corresponding
to the tape terminals to which connection has been made on the SE-300
and corresponding to the amplifier or receiver used.
Playing a program source with added equalizer
effects
This unit can be used to achieve subtle frequency compensation which
is not possible using the tone controls or filters of amplifier.
You can not only compensate for fluctuations in the frequency response
produced by the shape of the listening room and cut out the undesira-
ble frequencies but also color the sound of the program source as desired.
In other words, this unit gives you complete contro! over the sound.
1. Switch on the unit’s power.
2. Set the EQUALIZER switch to the ON position.
3. When listening to a disk or a radio broadcast:
Select the program source with the amplifiers function selector, and
operate the turntable or tuner.
Set the INPUT switch to the SOURCE Position
When listening to a tape:
Operation differs according to how the cassette deck is connected.

back
a
tape in a ‘cassette deck connected to the unit's TAPE PLAY
terminals.
When playing back a tape in a cassette deck connected to the TAPE
PLAY terminals of the amplifier or receiver, set to ’‘ON” the tape
monitor or input selector switch of the amplifier or receiver accord-
ing to the terminats used.
* When no component has been connected to the unit’s TAPE PLAY
terminals, no sound will be heard when the unit’s TAPE switch of
the INPUT switch is pressed.
4. Adjust the volume of sound with the amplifier’s volume control.
5. Play the music and adjust the equalizer controls to achieve equaliz-
ing. When they are slid above the center ‘’O dB" position, the level
near the indicated frequency is increased; when they are slid below
the position, the level is reduced.
6. The equalizing effect can be checked momentarily by setting the
EQUALIZER switch to the OFF and ON positions.
* When the EQUALIZER switch is at the OFF position, the sound qual-
ity cannot be compensated for even when the equalizer controls are
operated.
Recording a program source with added equalizer
effects
With this function, you can perform equalization of record or radio broad-
cast sounds, and record the results on the tape deck connected to the
unit. In accordance with your own preference and purpose, you can
make the sounds you like, thus producing tapes for headphone stereos,
car audios, etc.
1. Set the EQUALIZER switch to the ON positions.
2. Set the INPUT switch to the SOURCE Position
3. Use the amplifier’s function selector to select the program source
you wish to record, and operate the tuner or turntabie as appropriate.
4. Operate the equalizer controls tu compensate the program source
sounds as desired.
5. Set the cassette deck in the recording mode to begin the recording.
Dubbing a tape with added equalizer effects
By using a double-cassette deck or 2 cassette decks, equalizing can be
done on an already recorded tape and dubbed onto another tape (tape
copying).
When a double-cassette deck is used. :
1. Set the INPUT switch to the SOURCE position and set the
EQUALIZER switch to ON (().
2. Play the tape back on deck ‘‘a’’, and add the desired equalizing onto
the playback sound.
3. Press the REC switch on deck ‘’b”’ and start recording.
¢ When dubbing with equalizing, do not press the Dubbing switch.
When 2 cassette decks are used.
1. Set: the. INPUT switch to the SOURCE position and set the
EQUALIZER switch to ON (f).
2. Play the tape back on a deck connected to an amplifier and add the
desired equalizing.
3. Perform recording by operating the deck connected to the unit.
¢ When 2 cassette decks are used, sounds with equalizing cannot be
