Introducing the Optimus STAV-3790
Your Optimus STAV-3790 Audio/Video Receiver operates as the perfect
control center for your audio/video system. It combines 100 watts-per-
channel of clean power with modern styling. It provides connections for
one tape deck, one VCR, two audio/video sources, an additional tape
deck or audio source, a CD player, and a video monitor.
Your receiver also has special sound options. Dolby Digital produces the
digitally-processed true lifelike sound in every channel including sub-
woofer. Dolby Pro Logic
®
Surround Sound delivers movie theater sound
for audio/video programs (especially those encoded with Dolby Sur-
round Sound signals). DSP Effects creates a listening environment that
simulates a concert hall, jazz club, theater, or a dance hall.
In addition, you can connect a multi-channel decoder or DVD player
with 5.1-channel output so that all five channels and subwoofer have
independent signals.
Additional features include:
Digital-Synthesized Tuner Precisely tunes to AM and FM stations.
30 Memory Locations Let you store and recall the frequencies for up to 30 AM/FM stations.
Midnight Listening Mode Lets you enjoy the quality surround sound even at low volumes without
disturbing others.
Optical Digital Output Lets you directly output the digital source signals to a digital recording
device, such as MD, DAT, or CD-R.
Automatic Tuning Searches for the next available AM/FM station.
Tape Monitoring Lets you listen to the actual recording as you record, if your tape deck
has a tape-monitoring feature.
Built-In Protection Circuits Automatically turn off the receiver to help avoid power surges or short
circuit damage.
Remote Control Lets you use a single remote control for the receiver and other compati-
ble components connected to the receiver.
Note: The remote control requires two AA batteries (not supplied).
We recommend you record the receiver’s serial number here. The number is on the re-
ceiver’s back panel.
