you
want to listen through your stereo headphones.
NOTE:
Set the speaker selector to OFF when alent only with

@ BASS AND TREBLE CONTROLS
- Use these
controls
to adjust the bass and the
treble. If you set the tone switch to ON and turn
the bass control to right from its center position,
you will be able to emphasize the sound in the
low-frequency
range.
Conversely,
turning
the
bass control to the left from the center position,
you will attenuate the sound.
You
can
use the treble
control
to adjust the
sound in the high-frequency range.
@ TONE SWITCH
Set this switch to ON when adjusting the bass and
treble
controls.
When
set
to
OFF,
the
tone
control
circuits
are
disengaged
and
frequency
response
is flat. This function is convenient for
checking
phono
cartridge
and
speaker
tone
quality and listening room acoustics.
BALANCE CONTROL
Use this control to balance the volume of the left
and right channels. First, however, set the mode
selector to mono
(L+R, L, or R), and adjust so
that the sound appears to come from somewhere
exactly between the two speakers. If the sound
appears to be louder on the right, it means that
the volume of the right channel is higher. Turn
the balance control to the left and adjust.
Conversely, if the sound appears to be louder on
the
left, it means
that the volume
of the left
channel
is higher.
Therefore,
turn
the balance
control to the right and adjust. After adjusting,
return the mode selector to STEREO.
@ LOUDNESS SWITCH
When listening to a performance with the volume
control turned down, set this switch to ON and
the bass and treble will be accentuated.
When the volume is low, the human ear finds it
harder to hear the bass and treble than when the
yolume
is high.
The
loudness
switch
is thus
designed to compensate
for this deficiency. By
setting it to ON, the bass and treble come through
much
more
strongly and the sound
takes on a
punch
even
when
the volume
control
is turned
down.
