Special features
MONITOR
The
TAPE2/MONITOR
jacks of this unit accept the connec-
tion of a cassette deck, graphic equalizer, surround proces-
sor, etc. When a 3-head cassette deck is connected to the
TAPE2/MONITOR
jacks, it is possible to monitor the sound
which has just been recorded during recording.
@
Station preset
This unit incorporates a function for storing received stations
in preset memory with a simple operation. It is very conve-
nient to preset the stations you like. The preset stations can
be recalled also very easily.
$
RDS (Radio Data System) tuner
#
The receiver is equipped with a RDS tuner that provides several
convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto Memory to automati-
cally preset up to 30 stations including RDS broadcasting
different programs and ordinary FM stations; station name
display to show you the name of the current broadcast station;
and PTY Search to let you tune stations by program type.
PTY (Program TYpe) search
Lets you tune stations by specifying the type of program
you want to hear.
EON (Enhanced Other Networks) reservation
The EON function lets you monitor information on other
stations so you can receive traffic or news programs as
soon as they are broadcast, even they are broadcast on a
station different from the one you are currently listening
to. When the broadcast ends, the receiver returns to the
original station. When listening to
KENWOOD
source
components connected with system control cords, the
input selector on the receiver automatically switches to
the tuner when a program you desire is broadcast.
Remote controllable audio function
By connecting
KENWOOD
source components such as a
cassette deck and CD player through system control connec-
tion, the basic operations of these components can be con-
trolled from the remote control unit provided with this unit. A
single remote control unit can control the entire audio system
easily.
New “TRAIT“ transistor
The new developed
“TRAIT”
transistor with extremely supe-
rior temperature characteristics is used in this amplifier‘s
amplification circuit. Through the use of this transistor, distor-
tion generated because of temperature change is kept to a
minimum resulting in
“pure”
sound reproduction.
