REC SELECTOR switch /indicator(For TAPE 1/CD-
R/MD terminals)
This switch is used to select the recording source compo-
nent. The signal from the selected component is output at
the TAPE1/CD-R/MD jacks for recording. To select a record-
ing source component, press the REC SELECTOR switch so
that the indicator of the desired source component lights
up. When this switch is set to [TUNER] or [CD], the signal
from the selected component can be recorded regardless
of the input selector switch and TAPE2 MONITOR button
settings.
CD
:
To record from the equipment connected to the
CD terminals.
TUNER
:
To record from the equipment connected to the
TUNER terminals.
SOURCE :
To record from the equipment selected by the
INPUT SELECTOR knob.
OFF
:
In this position, nothing from the REC terminals
of TAPE 1/CD-R/MD is output. Set to this posi-
tion when not recording; the cassette deck will
be disconnected, improving sound quality.
NOTE:
The function selected using the INPUT SELECTOR knob will
be recorded irrespective of the position of the REC SELEC-
TOR switch (TAPE 2 MONITOR terminals).

BALANCE control
Should normally be left in the center position. Adjust the
balance if the sound is louder from one of the speakers. If
the right side is louder, turn toward the L (left) position and
if the left side is louder, turn toward the R (right) position.
NOTE:
This control does not operate at DIRECT ON mode.

DIRECT/SB MODE button/indicator
Press and hold the button for more than 3 seconds to switch
SB mode ON. (Volume indicator goes out)
Press and hold the button for more than 3 seconds again to
switch SB mode OFF. (Volume indicator lights)
[DIRECT]
Use this button when you do not wish to pass the output
from input terminal equipment through the various fre-
quency adjusting circuits (BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE, LOUD-
NESS).
On
:
The indicator lights. The signals input 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 out. The signal passes through
the various frequency adjusting circuits.
[SB MODE]
The SB mode is a special mode in which the amplifier does
not accept remote control except power ON/OFF (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/SURROUND 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.)
