How to operate line straight switch
The·line·straight·switch·is·used·to·play·sound·with·the·short-
est·signaling·route·for·enhancing·the·purity·of·the·source·se-
lected·with·the·input·selector.·When·this·switch·is·set·to·on,·
the· balance· control,· tone· control,· subsonic,· monaural· and·
loudness·are·bypassed.
How to operate balance control
The· balance· control· allows· users· to· adjust· the· balance· of·
sound·volume·between·right·and·left·channels.·
When· the· balance· adjustment· is· not· required,· the· balance·
control·is·set·to·the·center·position.
When the line straight switch is set to on, the balance control
does not function.
How to operate the tone control
This·unit·has·the·tone·control·function·for·the·low-frequency·
and·high-frequency·ranges.·
The·low-frequency·range·type·works·in·the·300·Hz·or·lower.·
The·tone·control·is·set·to·flat·frequency·characteristic·at·the·
center· position.· Rotating· the· control· clockwise· causes· the·
low-frequency·range·to·be·enhanced,·and·rotating·the·con-
trol·counterclockwise·causes·the·low-frequency·range·to·be·
attenuated.·
The·high-frequency·range·type·works·in·the·3·kHz·or·higher.·
As·with·the·low-frequency·range·type,·the·tone·control·is·set·
to·flat·frequency·characteristic·at·the·center·position.·Rotating·
the·control·clockwise·causes·the·high–frequency·range·to·be·
enhanced,·and·rotating·the·control·counterclockwise·causes·
the·high-frequency·range·to·be·attenuated.·
For·both·the·low-frequency·and·high-frequency·ranges,·the·
right·and·left·channels·interlockingly·function.
When the line straight switch is set to on, the tone control does
not function.
