speakers to compensate for sound imbalance caused from
speaker location or listening room conditions.
■
Adjusting the BASS and TREBLE
controls

■
Using the CD DIRECT AMP switch
You can enjoy the purest possible CD sound from your CD
player by setting this switch so that the indicator
illuminates. By doing so, CD’s input signals are sent to the
built-in special amplifier for CD directly bypassing the
INPUT
selector,
BASS
,
TREBLE
,
BALANCE
and
LOUDNESS
controls, and then sent to the power amplifier.
This signal routing reproduces the purest CD sound
eliminating any alterations to the CD signals.
Note
If both
CD DIRECT AMP
and
PURE DIRECT
switches are on,
only the
CD DIRECT AMP
switch will function.
