For Maximum Versatility
The
FM
tront
end
provides outstanding sensitivity
through
the
use
of
the
latest
space,age
high efficiency triodes
designed expressiy
for
use
in
the
VHF
band.
A
proven
time,switching
circuit,
renowned
for its
excellent
separation
and
lasting stability,
is
used
for
wide bandwidth stability featuring maximum
sep.
aration
at
all
times.
The
use
of
a
Schmidt
electronic
circuit
provides
reliable
automatic
switching
between stereo
and mono
operation.
This circuit
is
furthermore
coupled
to
a
stereo indicator lamp as
an
added
measure.
A
well-illuminated
and
easy'to-read
tuning
indicator helps greaily
to
simplify
the
tuning
in
of
the
weakest
signals.
For high
sensitivity
reception
of
AM
broadcasts,
a
well-designed AlVl
tuner
section using
a
precision 3-gang
tuning
capacitor
is
provided.
lt is
equipped
with
a
Loopstick
ferrite
antenna,
thus
eliminating
the
need
for
an
external
aeral
in
the
vicinity
of the
station.
The
final
stages use complimentary direct-coupled
circuits,
for
full
bandwidth
reproduction
at
low distortion
with
a
high
damping
factor.
Maximum
versatility
for
every conceivable
application
is
provided
by
a
range
of
inputs
that
include
two
pairs
of
low
level
inputs
providing equalization for
magnetic
type
pickups,
tape
head
inputs
providing equalization
for
both
711
and
3\
inches per
second
tape speeds,
and
u inpf
MON
ITOR
circuit
for
and added convenience
when using
a
tape
recorder.
LOGATION OF
REGEIVER
The
SX-10O0TA
is a
solid state transistorized
receiver.
There-
fore,
in
choosing
the
place
to
be
located,
the
following
points should
be
remined
in
mind.
OThe
location should
be
dry
and
free
of
dust,
and
also
well
ventilated.
Olt
should
not
be exposed
to
the
direct
ray of
the
sun.
NOTE: Transistors
are
susceptible
to
heat.
Therefore,
excep-
tional care should be taken
to
ensure
adequate
ventilation.
Never place
objects on
top
of
the receiver
nor place
it
in
crowded
corners where
there
is
no
circulation
of
air.
OThe
location should be
relatively close
to
a
power
ouilet,
and
also
conveniently
situated
for
antenna
and
ground
connec-
tion
s.
LC'GATION
OF LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEMS
OThe
loudspeaker systems
should be
placed anywhere
from
5
to 9
feet
apart.
0ptimum
stereo
effect
is
obtained
at
or
beyond
the
apex
of
an
equilateral
triangle formed
using
an
imaginary
line
connecting
the two
loudspeaker
systems
as
the
base.
If
the floor
surface
in front of the
loudspeaker
systems is
of
hardwood
or
of
concrete
that
reflects sound,
a
carpet
or
other
sound-absorbing material
should be laid
down
to
prevent bounce
of
sound.
ldeally,
the
areas
directly
opposite
the
loudspeaker
systems should also
be
of
sound-absorbing
materials
such
as
heavy
curtains
or
drapes.
