POWER:
Before you switch on the power, always set the VOLUME
control to 0 (minimum) to protect your speakers.
TONE CONTROLS:
After choosing the desired program source, adjust the VOL¬
UME. BALANCE and the GRAPHIC EQUALIZER controls as
follows:
1. Adjust the VOLUME control for the desired listening level.
2 Move the BALANCE control up or down to obtain the best
stereo effect in your listening area.
3. Use the five GRAPHIC EQUALIZER controls to adjust the
frequency response of your stereo system to match the
acoustic characteristics of the listening room.
With each of the five controls of the GRAPHIC EQUAL¬
IZER, it is possible to control a narrow, distinct section of
the audio band by up to ±10 dB. This corresponds to a
power increase of 10 times or a power decrease to 1/10.
The frequency bands, controlled by the five slide controls,
have been chosen to yield the maximum possible control
action within the audio spectrum.
50 Hz
The 50 Hz control is very useful for enhancing
low bass notes (as in organ music), or making
corrections when a deficiency in bass exists,
caused either by a listening room with poor
acoustic properties, or by a component of your
system (like a speaker, cartridge or record) with
a poor bass response.

frequencies.

The 1 kHz control is the presence control and
can be used to emphasize (bring out to the
front), or de-emphasize vocalists.
4.5 kHz
The 4.5 kHz control adds brilliance and clarity
to brass instruments and violins.
15 kHz
The 15 kHz control can be used to make up
for missing high frequencies absorbed by the
environment and to add a natural crispness to
music.
ANTENNA
The built-in high quality ferrite AM antenna and the supplied
FM indoor antenna can be used for the reception of local sta¬
tions. For reception within a steel-frame building, or if better
reception of weak stations is desired, place the unit near a
window and use a good FM outdoor antenna. For other
information, see the FM ANTENNA INFORMATION section
in this manual.
