Dear fellow Hi-Fi enthusiast,

The  new 

 

K1  CD-RECEIVER

  you

have  just  purchased  is  a  Hi-Fi  system  of  the
highest quality, designed and developed with
a  single  aim  as  top  priority:  to  meet  the
wishes of the audiophile music lover.

The machine's solid, well thought-out design,
and  its  synthesis  of  a  user-friendly  control
system  and  the  very  latest  technical  features
help to make this a piece of equipment which
will  satisfy  your  highest  demands  and  your
most  searching  requirements  for  a  period  of
many years.

All  the  materials  we  employ  are  subject  to
painstaking  quality  monitoring.  Our  produc-
tion areas are supervised by highly qualified,
expert staff, and all final production units are
checked  comprehensively  by  a  fully  auto-
mated, computer-controlled system to  ensure
uniformly  high  quality.  We  guarantee  that
our  products  meet  our  own  specifications  in
full.

At  all  stages  of  production  we  avoid  the  use
of substances which are environmentally  un-
sound  or  potentially  hazardous  to  health,
such  as  chlorine-based  cleaning  agents  and
CFCs.

We  also  aim  to  avoid  the  use  of  plastics  in
general, and PVC in particular, in the design
of our products. Instead we rely upon metals
and  other  non-hazardous  materials;  metal
components  are  ideal  for  recycling,  and  also
provide effective electrical screening.

The  robust  all-metal  cases  which  we  use  of-
fer a real and practical advantage, since they
exclude any possibility of external sources of
interference  affecting  the  quality  of  repro-
duction.

From the opposite point of view our products'
electro-magnetic  radiation  (electro-smog)  is
reduced  to  an  absolute  minimum  by  the  out-
standingly  effective  shielding  provided  by
the metal case.

We  would  like  to  take  this  opportunity  to
thank you for the faith you have shown in our
company  in  purchasing  this  product,  and
wish you many hours of enjoyment and sheer
listening  pleasure  with  your

RECEIVER
