OPERATING THE AMPLIFIER
VOLUME CONTROL
The machine features a digital volume con-
trol system. Every time you press a
button, the volume is …
… increased (right-hand button)
or
… reduced (left-hand button) by 1.25 dB.
The current volume level is shown briefly on
the screen as a numeric value (0 … 63), e.g.:
'VOLUME 32'
The enormously wide range of volume levels
(0 … 78.75 dB) available, combined with the
perfect channel matching, provide ultra-fine,
highly accurate volume control.
SELECTING THE SOURCE DEVICE
The term source device means any compo-
nent of a Hi-Fi system which supplies a
sound signal, such as tuner, CD player, cas-
sette deck etc.
The term auditioning device means the ma-
chine which you are actually listening to.
In addition to the integral auditioning sources
TUNER
and
CD
you can also select up to
two external auditioning sources:
TV
and
TAPE
.
Press the
button briefly to change
the auditioning device.
•
The current auditioning source (e.g.
Tuner) is now shown on the screen:
'TUNER'
.
•
Pressing the
button repeatedly
cycles through all the auditioning sources
on the screen.
•
Release the button to select the source you
wish to listen to, and after one second the
screen shows the standard machine-
specific display for the chosen source unit.
As a basic rule you can only make a tape re-
cording from the source device which is cur-
rently selected as the auditioning source.
This signal is available at the output sockets
marked
TAPE-OU
T.
To switch between the auditioning source
and the recording machine (i.e. for tape
monitoring) press the
button.
•
Pressing the button repeatedly causes the
screen to alternate between the auditioning
source, e.g.
'TUNER'
and the recording
machine
'TAPE'
. When set to
monitor
mode
, the screen also shows the
symbol.
•
About a second after the selected source
device appears, the screen shows the stan-
dard machine-specific display for that
auditioning source.
