Adjusting the BASS and TREBLE
controls
Adjusting the BALANCE control Selecting the SPEAKER system
Adjust the balance of the output volume to the left and right
speakers to compensate for sound imbalance caused from
speaker location or listening room conditions.
Because one or two speaker systems can be connected to this
unit, the SPEAKERS switches allow you to select speaker
system A or B, or both at once.
BASS : Turn this clockwise to increase (or counter-
clockwise to decrease) the low frequency
response.
TREBLE : Turn this clockwise to increase (or counter-
clockwise to decrease) the high frequency
response.
Adjusting the continuously variable

sensitivity to high and low-frequency ranges at low volume.
This control is adjustable to retain full tonal range at any
volume level.

Using the PURE DIRECT switch
You can enjoy the purest possible sound from your audio
sources by setting this switch so that the indicator illuminates.
By doing so, the audio signals bypass the BASS, TREBLE,
BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls, thus eliminating any
alteration to the audio signals.
You can enjoy the purest possible CD sound from your CD
player by setting this switch so that the indicator illuminates.
By doing so, CD’s input signals are sent to the built-in special
amplifier for CD directly bypassing the INPUT selector, BASS,
TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls, and then sent
to the power amplifier. This signal routing reproduces the
purest CD sound eliminating any alterations to the CD signals.
