OPERATING PROCEDURE
Every control on this receiver serves ci
specific useful function and is
important for the
proper
operation of your stereo system.
We
recommend
that you read the following section carefully so you
may
take full advantage of the performance capabilities of your receiver.
VOLUME CONTROL
The VOLUME control adjusts the signal level of any program material con
nected to your stereo receiver. It is a two section control which simultaneously
adjusts both channels, and its close tracking specifications insure that the relative
volume level of each channel will be identical.
BALANCE CONTROL
The nature of stereo reproduction is such that it requires two identical
channels to attain the highest degree of faithfulness and spatial distribution.
Any variation in the efficiency of one channel as compared to the other will
disturb this relationship. Since there may be slight differences between the two
speakers, the tape heads, etc., your receiver includes a control to balance one
channel against the other. Sufficient range is covered by this control to permit
rebalancing of the overall system even in cases where major unbalance exists.
This control may be set anywhere within its range to attain system balance. It
does not necessarily have to be set in the exact vertical position.
When the BALANCE control is properly set, the apparent sound source will
lie in a broad area between the two speakers. When the BALANCE control is
rotated to the right the sound will move to the right and when the control is
rotated to the left, the sound will move to the left.
BASS AND TREBLE CONTROLS
The BASS and TREBLE controls on your receiver provide the full range
of tonal adjustment necessary for stereo high fidelity listening. The tone control
range is considerable and can adequately adjust the low and high frequencies
in accordance with your listening preference, speaker characteristics and room
acoustics.
You may adjust both the BASS and TREBLE for each channel simultaneously
or individually. The outer knob adjusts the LEFT channel and the inner knob
adjust the RIGHT channel. In order to adjust both channels turn either knob. In
order to adjust one channel only simply hold one knob while adjusting the other.
MODE SWITCH
The MODE switch selects between stereophonic and monophonic operation
depending upon the program source. The switch has five positions as follows:
1) REV......................... To reverse left and right channels for your listening
preference
2) STEREO ............... Normal stereo operation
3) L & R...................... Combined left plus right channels
4) L .................. .......... Left channel signal to L & R channel
51 R ......................... . Right channel signal to L & R channel
FUNCTION SWITCH
The FUNCTION switch has six positions and is used to select the desired
type of program source.
1 ) PHONO 1 (with RIAA equalization)
2) PHONO 2 (with RIAA equalization)
3) AM
4) FM
5) AUX 1
6) AUX 2
There are eleven remaining
switches on the front
panel of
your
receiver.
The switches used are all of the PUSH/PUSH type; that is push in to
activate
the circuit and push again to
release
or de-activate the circuit. In describing
these switches we will consider the
“
IN” position to be “ON” and the
“OUT” position to be “OFF”.
POWER SWITCH
The POWER switch performs the function as its name denotes. It supplies
power to the receiver and to the switched AC convenience outlet. When the
switch is ON, function indicator lights will be illuminated.
If the function switch is in either the AM or FM position, the dial scale and
tuning meters will also be illuminated.
