0
HDAM®SA3 Module
This unit includes the HDAM®SA3 which had been developed for highend models. The HDAM®SA3 is incorporated into many components, such as the current feedback power amplifier.
Settings
Short-power-line layout
0
For strong momentary current supply, a short power-line layout unifies the power circuit and output stage of the power amplifier section. This layout allows connecting the large-current lines via the shortest route while to arranging the left and right channels symmetrically.
CD direct buffer amplifier
0
An input buffer amplifier exclusive for CD is mounted near the CD input jacks. This is a high-speed buffer amplifier made with discrete components, which avoids interference between right and left channels and can send the signals to the pre-amplifier with very high fidelity.
Block condenser of large capacity
0
The unit is equipped with a newly developed 15000 μF large capacity condenser that incorporates the concepts of high-end devices into the power amplifier power circuit.

Connecting a playback device

You can connect turntables, tuners, CD players and network audio players to this unit. This unit is compatible with turntables equipped with a moving magnet (MM) phono cartridge. When you connect to a turntable with a low output moving coil (MC) cartridge, use a commercially available MC head amp or a step-up transformer. If you set this unit’s input source to “PHONO” and you accidentally increase the volume without having a turntable connected, you may hear a hum noise from the speakers.

NOTE
The earth terminal (SIGNAL GND) of this unit is not for safety grounding purposes. If this terminal is connected when there is a lot of noise, the noise can be reduced. Note that depending on the turntable, connecting the ground line may have the reverse effect of increasing noise. In this case, it is not necessary to connect the ground line.

Explanation of terms

Speaker impedance
This is an AC resistance value, indicated in Ω (Ohms). Greater power can be obtained when this value is smaller.
Source direct
Playback with higher fidelity to the source becomes possible, as input audio signals are output by bypassing the audio quality-control circuits (BASS/TREBLE/BALANCE).
Protection circuit
This is a function to prevent damage to devices within the power supply when an abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage occurs or over temperature for any reason.
If a malfunction occurs in this unit, the power indicator blinks red and the unit switches to standby mode.
