DIRECT button/indicator
Use this button when you do not wish to pass the output from
input terminal equipment through the various frequency
adjusting circuits (BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE, LOUDNESS).
On
: The indicator lights: The signals passing through the
input terminals are reproduced without passing through
the various frequency adjusting circuits. This results in
flat, pure sound which is a more faithful reproduction of
the input source.
Off
: The indicator goes off: The signal passes through the
various frequency adjusting circuits.

SB MODE button/indicator
The SB mode is a special mode in which the amplifier does not
accept remote control (But all of the facilities can be controled
by manual as same as SB mode OFF.). Fix the VOLUME
control near the center position. In this mode, the set can be
used as a power amplifier which amplifies the LINE/SUR-
ROUND BACK input (the function name is LINE/SB) with a
input sensitivity of 1 V.
For example, when the set is combined with one of Pioneer’s
Surround Back compatible receiver, the set can be used as
the Surround Back amplifier (For details, please refer to the
instruction manual of the receiver.)
