Remark:
For
reproduction
through

loudspeakers,
as a consequence,
two
stereo
loudspeaker
enclosures
must
be con-
nected. In
case
of 'STEREO

reproduction
all
the
enclosures
connected
should
prefer-
ably
be of the
same
specification.
MFB-enclosures
These enclosures
should be connected
to the
special MFB-socket

For 'STEREO
2x2'
reproduction
MFB-enclo-
sures can be used in combination
with
conven-
tional
loudspeaker
enclosures,
in which case
the latter must
be
connected
to the sockets
@

Where the
two types of
enclosures
are used in
combination,
it is
preferable
to posi-
tion
the
MFB-enclosures
in
front of the
liste-
ner.
Note:
Provided
a
pair of conventional
enclo-
sures is connected
to the sockets

in addition be
connected

Where
MFB-enclosures

used,
the

cording to the
type

viz.:
In
the case of MFB's

In

Positioning
the
loudspeaker
enclosures
To
obtain the
optimum
stereo
effect,
a
certain
amount of care
must
be exercized
in position-
ing the
loudspeaker
enclosures.
Since
every
room
has its
own
acoustic
cha-
racteristics,
which
are
governed mainly by the
shape,
size and furnishings
of the
room,
it is
impossible
to state here just where
the
enclo-
sures
should
be
placed. The
best
positions can
be found only by trial and
error.
The following
notes
should
be
of
help
to you.
Try to keep
the distance
between
the
en-
closures about
the same as the
distance of each
to
the
listener.
Bass response
is accentuated
if the enclo-
sures are
situated
in corners
or on the
floor.
If
the response
then
is
not
desired,
try
to im-
prove matters
by
placing
the enclosures some-
what
higher,
and farther from the
corners.
Reproduction
of
treble
is adversely affected
if
the
enclosures
are
positioned
behind
furni-
ture,
curtains
etc.
Keep
the
loudspeaker
set-up as
symmetrical
as
possible. The
effect of
a
certain asymmetry
can be
offset
by
means
of
the stereo
balance
control.
Aerials
FM-aerial
Transmissions
from
nearby
FM-stations
can
be received
using
a
provisional
wire
aerial
(supplied),
which
should
be
connected
to
socket
i@).
For
best
results,
of
course,
particularly
in
the
case
of FM-stereo
reception,
an
external
aerial
(75 Ohm) should be
employed.
Connect this
aerial to
socket~.
AM-aerial
The built-in
ferrite
rod aerial
will provide
sa-
tisfactory
reception of
local
stations
with
strong
signals.
If reception
is too weak
an
AM-outdoor
aerial
can
be connected
to socket
@.
If
desired,
an earth
lead can be connected
to the other
pole of this
socket.
Headphones
Stereo
headphones,
impedance
8-600
Ohm,
can be
connected
to socket
@.
Connecting
the headphones
cuts off
the
loud-
speakers.
Remark:
Listenina
via
headphones
usually
asks for a higher setting of
volume
control
~
than
when
listening
via
the
loudspeakers.
Therefore
it is recommended
to set
this
con-
trol to a lower
setting
before
removing
the
headphones
plug.

A record player fitted with
a magneto-dynamic
pick-up
cartridge
can
be

for
this
effect.

General
notes to be observed
when tuning
to
FM-stations.
The reception
quality
of FM-stereo
broad-
casts dependsto a large
extent uponthestrength
of the signal
provided
by the
aerial.
If
a
strong
signal
is
being
received
and
control
@
is
switched
to the
'STEREO'
mode,
high
quality,
low noise, stereo
reception
will
result.
Stereo
indicator
will then
light
up.
If the
signal
is weak however the noise
level
will
increase
and may
spoil the programme
content.
At a
pre-determined
level
the
s
twill
automatically
switch to
the
'MONO'
mode.
The
noise
level
will then
be reduced but
the
ster
0
effect
will,
of
course,
be
lost.
This function
can
be
performed
manually
by
setting
switch
Q
2)
to the
'MONO'
mode.
In
addition,
the
rotary
part
of
the
control can
be
used to
gradually alter
the stereo
separation.
In
this
way
the
noise
level
can
be reduced to
an acceptable
level without
totally
losing
the
stereo
effect.
AFC (Automatic
Frequency
Control)
can
be
switched on
by pressing
key@.
Then,
with
AFC in
operation,
stable reception
is
automatically
assured.
Remark:
Preferably
do
not
use
AFC
while
tun-
ing.
Also
when,
using
AFC,
this would lead to
undesired
tuning
to a
stronger
neightbouring
station.
