Precautions
Installation place
Install this unit in a location where good ventilation and heat
radiation are assured. Especially, installation of this unit where
direct sunlight is present, where the temperature rises exces-
sively high such as close to a heater, or where it is humid
or dusty may cause a malfunction even if heat is efficiently
released. Therefore, do not install this unit in such places.
Ventilation holes
The ventilation holes of this product must not be blocked
because this unit is a vacuum tube amplifier and generates
considerable heat. If the amplifier is installed on a rack or the
like, secure ample space for cooling and leave the door open.
Do not pile up other things on the amplifier and never put
articles on it. Failure to observe this may cause a malfunction.
Note:
For heat dispersal, do not install this equipment in a confined
space such as a book case or similar unit.
* Note
* *
*
The sound is not generated shortly after
the power supply is turned on.
This amplifier is equipped with a time muting circuit in order
to separate the output circuit. Therefore, no sound will be
generated shortly after the power supply is turned on.
If the volume control is set to a high sound level before the
time muting circuit is canceled, a large sound is suddenly
generated. Please be advised that the volume control shall be
set to a low level at first and adjusted after the sound comes
out of the speakers.
Batteries
Warning:
Batteries used for the remote control shall not be exposed
to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
Repair and adjustment
When repairs and adjustments are needed, please consult
with the dealer where you bought the unit.
Cleaning
For cleaning, use a piece of soft cloth to wipe the unit such as
cleaning cloth. When the dirt is hard to remove, use a small
amount of neutral detergent to wipe, and then wipe the unit
with dry cloth. Do not use a solvent like benzine or thinner
because such a substance can damage the exterior.

This indicator blinks during the muting time immediately
after turning on the power and at activating the mute func-
tion using the main unit or remote control.
14. Balance control (BALANCE)
Adjusts the balance of sound volume between right and left
channels. Rotating the control counterclockwise gradually
cuts the volume of the right channel, rotating the control
clockwise gradually cuts the volume of the left channel. This
knob shall be set to the center position under normal condi-
tions, and rotated to make adjustment if necessary.
15. Mute button (MUTE)
Temporarily mutes the sound. Pressing this button activates
the mute function and blinks the sound volume indicator
resulting in no sound generated. Pressing this button again
to cancel the mute function allows sound to be generated.
9. Input selector
Selects an input device from the devices such as a CD
player, an SACD player, and a tuner connected to each
input terminal.
This selector has five positions consisting of PHONO, LINE-1,
LINE-2, LINE-3, and BAL LINE that correspond to each input
terminal on the rear panel. To select an input source, set the
selector to the position of the input source to be played back.
10. Pilot light

low output voltage.
MM: Selects the MM (moving magnet) type cartridge
of high output voltage.
17. Tone control for treble (TREBLE)
Controls the frequency characteristics of the high-fre-
quency range. When this switch is set in the center posi-
tion, flat frequency characteristics is obtained. Rotating the
knob clockwise makes the high frequency range enhanced,
and rotating the knob counterclockwise makes the high fre-
quency range attenuated.
18. Tone control for bass (BASS)
Controls the frequency characteristics of the low-frequency
range. When this knob is set to the center position, flat fre-
quency characteristic is obtained. Rotating the knob clock-
wise makes the low frequency range enhanced, and rotat-
ing the knob counterclockwise makes the low frequency

SACD player, a tuner, or other such input devices and any
of LINE-1, LINE-2, LINE-3, and BAL LINE input terminals of
this unit with 2 (R and L) pin-plug cables or balanced cables.
How to connect analog record player
Connect between the output terminals of an analog player
and the PHONO terminals of this unit with 2 (R and L) pin-
plug cables.
For some types of players, the ground wire from the phono
motor or the tone arm should be connected to the ground
terminal of this unit.
The phono equalizer section of this unit supports both the
MM (moving magnet) type cartridge and MC (moving coil)
type cartridge. Select the position of the cartridge selector
(CARTRIDGE) according to the type of the cartridge to be

– HIGH LOW
The output from an analog record player equipped with a
phono equalizer or from an independent phono equalizer
shall be connected to the line input terminals of this unit.
* During playback using an analog player, hum noises (boon
noise) may be generated regardless of the sound of the
record.
Most of the time, the noise gets mixed from the tone arm
section of the analog player. Check the installed position of
the analog player and rearrange the cabling route if required.
Extra caution is required for the MC cartridge, since the out-
put voltage is low.
* If the sound of the analog player is distorted, it is likely that
the appropriate stylus pressure is not applied to the car-
tridge.
Make adjustment referring to the operating instructions of
the analog player and the cartridge.
If the player is equipped with an anti-skating function, its
adjustment is also required.
* The sound may distorted due to dust adhered to the stylus.
In such a case, clean the stylus carefully with an available
cleaner.

How to connect recorder
1. Connection to MONITOR terminal (playback)
Connect between the line output terminals (LINE OUT) of a
recorder and the MONITOR terminals of this unit with pinplug
cables in consideration of L and R. When the MONITOR
switch on the front panel is turned on, the playback of the
recorder is possible.
2. Connection to REC OUT terminal (recording)
When the sound source from various input devices con-
nected to the PHONO, LINE, or other terminals of this unit
is played back, the signals are provided to the REC OUT
terminal.
Connection between the REC OUT terminal of this unit and
the line input terminals (LINE IN) of the recorder with pinplug
cables is required for recording on the recorder. After the
connection, you can enjoy listening to the sound from the
speaker system and record the sound at the same time.
These output signals for recording are not affected by the
control functions such as the volume control and tone con-
trol functions.
How to connect a power amplifier
Connect between the input terminal of an output device such
as a power amplifier and a line output terminals(either LINE-1
or LINE-2) of this unit with a pin-plug cable.
At this moment, exercise extra care not to conduct wrong
connection between the right and left channels. If the right
and left channels are connected reversely, the localization of
sound images is deteriorated, thus failing in normal stereo
playback.
If the grounding of the pin-plug cables is inadequately con-
nected, noises including hum may be generated, resulting in
an adverse S/N ratio. Surely insert the connection plug.
When the input source to be recorded needs not to be
changed, be careful not to operate the input selector espe-
cially during recording with use of the recorder connected
to the REC OUT terminal.
Do not insert short pin plugs into the REC OUT terminal.
No sound will be generated.
Be aware that the playback sound volume may become
lower or no sound may be generated if a CD recorder, a
tape recorder, or other recorders are connected, which
extremely decrease the impedances of their line input ter-
minals or cause short circuits on their line input terminals
when the power is turned off.
11
Page 14
Operations
Before operation
1. Ensure that the connections are correctly performed.
(Normal playback cannot be achieved with wrong connec-
tions of R and L.)
2. When the power is toggled between on and off or the
input selector is changed over, set the volume control to
the minimum position in advance.
Playback procedure
1. Press the operation switch to turn on the switch after
ensuring that the volume control is set to the minimum
position.
2. Select a source to be reproduced with the input selector
or monitor switch.
3. Adjust the sound level with the volume control.
4. Operate the tone defeat switch, balance control, or tone
control according to the source to be played back.
How to operate tone defeat switch
(TONE DEFEAT)
The tone defeat switch is used to play back with the shortest
signaling route to prioritize the purity of the source selected
with the input selector. When this switch is set to on, the
bass and treble levels are not changed even if the tone con-
trol (BASS and TREBLE) is operated.
How to operate tone control
(TONE CONTROL)
This unit has the tone control function for the low-frequency
and high-frequency ranges.
The low-frequency tone control is a function to adjust the
tone range lower than the selected one with the selector
switch (FREQUENCY/Hz for low-frequency).
The tone control is set to flat frequency characteristics at
the center position. Rotating the control clockwise makes
the low-frequency range enhanced, and rotating the control
counterclockwise makes the low-frequency range attenu-
ated.
The high-frequency tone control is a function to adjust the
tone range higher than the selected one with the selector
switch (FREQUENCY/Hz for high-frequency).
The tone control is set to flat frequency characteristics at
the center position. Rotating the control clockwise makes
the high-frequency range enhanced, and rotating the control
counterclockwise makes the high-frequency range attenu-
ated.
For both the low-frequency and high-frequency ranges, the
right and left channels interlockingly function.
When the tone defeat switch is set to on, the bass and
treble levels are not changed even if the tone control is
operated.
How to operate balance control
(BALANCE)
The balance control allows users to adjust the balance of
sound volume between right and left channels.
When balance adjustment is not required, the balance control
is set to the center position.
How to record a source
1. Select a source to be recorded with the input selector.
2. Play the source to be recorded and set the recorder to the
recording state.
Operation of the tone control or balance control does not
affect the recording signals.
