SETTING POWER ECONOMIZING MODE

Setting this unit to power economizing mode reduces power consumption as foiiows.
• When the power is turned off, ali the display lights turn off, and only the indicator on the POWER button lights. However, if the clock is not set, the game Demo (page 8), will begin when the power is turned off.
• If CD or tape does not play for 10 minutes or if there is no audio input from any connected external equipment for 10 minutes when VIDEO/AUX or PHONO is selected as the source, the power shuts off.
• The display brightens only when operating the unit. When the unit has not been used for 10 seconds, the brightness level switches to the mode previously selected in “DIM MODE”. (Page
6)
(If the display brightness level is set to “DIM-OFF”, the brightness does not change. When the level is “DIMMER 3”, the button lamps are also turned off.)

4-CHANNEL MULTI-AMPLIFIER SYSTEM

To provide reinforcement for the ultra-low frequencies, in addition to the Left/Right 2-channel amplifier used to reproduce mid-to-
high-range frequencies, this system incorporates a second L/R 2-channel amplifier just for reproduction of ultra-low frequencies — making it, in effect, a 4-amplifier system. By utilizing discrete amplifiers for mid to-high-frequencies and low frequencies, high­quality sonic reproduction that is virtually free from distorfion can be realized. This Multi Amplifier System, which utilizes independent circuitry for the different frequency ranges, enables superb sonic reproduction free from distortion.

BUILT-IN SUBWOOFER SYSTEM

The built-in subwoofer system has a separate subwoofer cavity area that is part of the loudspeaker cabinet structure, which acts as a sonic filter to cut distortion components. (In the Multi Amplifier System, the ultra-low frequency signals transmitted from their own independent amplifier are reproduced in this area.) This separate construction gives a clear, rich definition to bass reproduction and it can realize clear, well-defined mid-to-high frequency signals. And AlWA’s built-in subwoofer system incorporates a subwoofer capable of powerful, satisfying bass performance with true stereo separation.
