0 Emphasis indicator (0)
tltuminates when a disc recorded with pre-emphasis is
played.
In order to further improve the S/N ratio of compact discs,
some discs include a degree of pre-emphasis in the
high-frequency range. If a disc with pre-emphasis is
inserted into this unit. the emphasis indicator on the display
panel illuminates.
This indicates the recording characteristics of the compact
disc being played. If a disc with pre-emphasis is played
without any compensation, the high-frequency range will be
unnaturally strong. Therefore, a corresponding amount of
de-emphasis is needed to obtain the proper response. The
de-emphasis circuitry of this unit is automatically activated
when a disc having pre-emphasis is played. Some discs are
made without pre-emphasis.
Note:
When listening to music with stereo headphones, avoid
listening for prolonged periods of time. Hearing expefis
advise against continuous extended play.
