The

in

units
and
defines
the

0.775V
(1

at

to
be

When
the

sensitivity

button
is
set
to
OdB,
the
meters
will
indicate
—20dB
at
an
input
of
OdBm.
When
the
pushbutton
is
set
to
+20dB,
the
meters
will
indicate
OdB
at
an
input
of
OdBm.
For
VU

an
indication

indicates
a
signal
level

W
indication
When
this
unit
is
used
as
a
power
meter,
the
inner
(lower)
scale
of
the
meters
should
be
used.
The
W
scale
is
calibrated
in
output
values
at
a
pure
resistance
load
which
is
equivalent
to
nominal
resist-
ance.
When
the
meter
sensitivity
selection
pushbutton
is
set
to
the
OdB
position,
power
is
indicated
in
the
range
shown
(1mW
~1000W)
on
the
meters.
When
itis
set
to
+20dB,
the
actual
value
of
the
power
is
0.01
of
the
indicated
value
(thus,
a
range
of
0.01
mW
~
10W).
Impedance
correction
Because
the
values
indicated
on
the
meters
(when
they
are
used
as
power
meters)
are
different
depend-
ing
upon
the
impedance
of
the
speakers
used,
it
is
necessary
to
use
the
speaker
impedance
selector
(on
the
rear
panel)
to
make
the
impedance
correction.
If
the
speakers
to
be
used
have
an
impedance
of
8
ohms,
set
the
switch
to
the
8
position.
For
speakers
with
a
6-ohm
impedance
set
to
6,
and
for
a
4-ohm
impedance
set
to
49.
Note
that
meter
readings
will
be
incorrect
if
the
correct
setting
is
not
made
to
correspond
with
the
impedance
of
the
speakers.
Speaker
impedance
selector
If
the
speakers
have
an
impedance
different
from
any
of
those
indicated,
set
the
selector
to
the
closest
approximate
value.
Actual
output
is
then
calculated
in
the
following
way:
(Value
indicated
on
meters)
x
(Selector
set-
ting
+
Impedance
of
speakers
used).
If,
for
example,
the
selector
is
set
to
8
for
speak-
ers
of
16-ohm
impedance,
multiply
the
value
indi-
cated
on
the
meters
by
1/2
to
determine
the
actual
output.
When
the
Technics
models
SE-9060
Is
used
for
Balanced-Transformerless
operation,
set
the
speak-
er
impedance
selector
to
a
value
which
is
1/2
of
the
impedance
of
the
speakers
to
be
used.
If,
for
example,
the
speaker
impedance
is
82,
set
the
selector
to
the
“49”
position.

METER
RESPONSE
CHARACTERISTICS
FOR
VARIOUS
SIGNAL
WAVEFORMS
Because,
as
explained
previously,
the
response
characteristics
of
peak-level
meters
and
of
average
meters
are
different,
the
two
types
of
meters
would
indicate
two
completely
different
values
when
the
waveform
and
the
duration
are
different.
In
the
figures
below,
the
indicated
values
for
the
two
types
of
meters
are
shown.
The

the

are
