Special features
Room Equalizer feature
This model is equipped with Room Equalizer, which automatically creates your best listening environment
according to your room, speakers position, etc. In addition to technical knowledge, generally, a great deal of
time and work are spent finding the best listening position such as changing speakers or furniture position
while listening to the sound. This function enables you to simply create it in a short time without laborious
settings.
Digital Sound Equalizer feature
This model is equipped with Digital Sound Equalizer by Digital Sound Processing, which makes more detailed
sound adjustments possible.
Playback capability of CD-R and CD-RW discs
This model can playback music data recorded in CD-R (Compact Disc Recordable) and CD-RW (Compact Disc
Rewritable).
However, some CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be playable on the CD player depending on the recording
characteristics of the recording equipment (including the pick-up), properties of the CD-R or CD-RW in use, its
recording condition and so on. Also note that a CD-R or CD-RW disc which has not been finalized cannot be
played back.
Versatile timer features
÷ Timer playback :
Two timer programs (PROG 1, PROG 2) are available for timer playback (AI timer playback). (With the AI
timer playback, the playback volume increases gradually after the start of timer playback.)
÷ Sleep timer :
This timer turns the unit off automatically when the set time has elapsed. It is convenient for example,
falling asleep while listening to music in the night time, etc.
RDS (Radio Data System) tuner
This model is equipped with an RDS tuner that provides several convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto
Memory, to automatically preset up to 40 RDS stations broadcasting different programs; station name
display, to show you the name of the current broadcast station; and PTY search to let you tune stations by
program type.
PTY (Program Type) search
Tune the stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear.

Super bass range (band 1: 63Hz)
When this control is moved up, the sound from bass
instruments such as a bass guitar becomes deep an
stable. When the super bass sound is boomy, move
this control down.
Bass range (band 2: 160Hz)
Usually, the listening room resonance frequency is
in this range. To eliminate bass resonance, move
this control down.
Mid bass range (band 3: 400Hz)
This range is the basis of music, whether the sound
is rich or not, depends on this range. When the playback sound is not so good, moving this control up
slightly makes the sound sonorous.
Mid range (band 4: 1kHz)
When this control is moved up or down, the baritone
or soprano voice is emphasized/de-emphasized. This
range is related to the "presence" of music.
Mid-high range (band 5: 2.5kHz)
This range is related to stimulus and metallic sound.
When this range is well compensated, vivid sound
can be obtained.
High range (band 6: 6.3kHz)
This frequency range is related to hardness of the
sound. When this control is moved up, strings or
brass instruments, such as flutes or piccolos, are
emphasized. When the control is moved down, the
sound will be more soothing.
Super high range (band 7: 16kHz)
This frequency range is related to the width and details of the music. When this control is moved up,
super high frequency instruments, such as triangles
or cymbals, are emphasized, resulting in wide
sound and echoes.
