Outdoor Antenna Grounding
--
lf
an ouiside antenna b
connected to the receiver,
be sure the antenna system
b
grounded
so as to
provide
some
protection
against
voltage
surges and built-up
static charges. Section 810 of the Natbnal
Electrical
Code,
ANSI/NFPA
No. 70-1990,
provides
inlormatbn
with
respect
to
proper grounding
of
the mast
and supportirg
structure,
grounding
ol the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge
unit, size of
grounding
conductors, location
of antenna-discharge
unit, connection to
grounding
electrodes, and requirements for
the
grounding
electrode. See figure below.

Placement
of speaker systems
The
illustration
below is an
example
when
enjoying Dolby Pro-Logic
Surround-sound.
The listening
position
at
which
the effect
is
the
greatest
is a
posi-
lion slightly to
the
rear
of a center
position
of
five-speaker
systems.
However
the
position
should be adlusted to
your personal
preference,
because
the eflect varies to some degree
depending
upon the type ol music
and the
music
source.

o
Even if the amplifier to be used has an
output
power
rating lo*er
than that ol the speaker syslem, the amplifier ou$rt may
become distorted.
This
"clipping"
distortion creates an ex-
cessive
input level which
can damage the speaker slts{em.
This
type ol distortion also occurs, if the input signal to the amplifier
is
too
large
(For
example, when
excessive equalizatiqr
is used.).
.
Keep the
speakers
away from sources of heat, high
humidity
and
direct sunlight.
The
sound reproduced
by a speaker is easily influenced by
such
lactors
as
room
acoustics
and the system's location in the room
Before finally
deciding where
the speakers are to be
placed,
please
read
the lollowing information
carelully.
oThe
bass
sound will be increased if
lhe speakers are
placed
on
the floor
or close to a wall
due to the
reflection
of sound.
It is therefore
possible
to adjust
the bass sound to some extent by
adjusting
the speaker's
distance
from
the
wall
and/or floor.
.
Undesirable resonance
or sound
reflection
will occur i, the
speakers face
a hard wall or window.
Curtains or similar
materials can
be used to
prevent
these reflections.
.To
prevent
possible
acoustic feedback
the speaker system
should be
kept
away
from
the turntable. Feedback
(howling)
can
result
from vibrations from
the speakers.

About
the
Dolby noise-reduction system
The Dolby noise-reduction syslem is a system designed to effec­tively
reduce
the annoying
high{requency
"hissing"
noise typically
heard from tapes if this syslern
is not used. During recording, the
system
functions
to
increase the level of the
high{requency
part
of
the sound, and then, during
playoack,
that same
portion
is weaken-
ed and returned to the
previous
level.
This
unit
includes
two
types ol Dolby
noise-reduction
systems,
the
Dolby B NB-type
and C
NB-type,
Dolby B-type noise-reduction
Dolby
C-type
noise-reduction
Noise is reduced to about one-third.
Use this system when
playing
back
tapes
recorded
by the
Dolby-B
noise-reduction
system,
such as
prerecorded
music tapes, etc.
Noise is reduced
to about onelenth,
Use this system for the
recording
and
playtack
of
sound sources
that have a wide dynamic
range
and
good
tone
quality,
such
as FM
broadcasts
of
live
performances,
etc., and
lor

Dolby HX-Pro headroom
extension system
(Only
for
RS-TR311)
By functioning to improve the
maximum
ouFut
level
of the tape's
high{requency range,
this system
permits
recordings
without a
drop of the level of the sound source's
high-frequency
range.
ln ad-
dition, by using the system
in
parallel
with this unit's
noise-reduc-
tion
system,
recording and
playback
with a
greatly
exlended
dynamic range is
possible.

with

These
statements
are used

sounds can be clarified,

This control can be used to
reinforce the sounds of
male vocals,
etc.
F

Mid-range
This control can
be used to add clear
presence
and
realism to
female vocals, etc
Examples
of applications
By using the seven band-level controls, various corrections
of the
sound
field and tone
quality
are
possible.
For
creation
of a sound field in the listening
foom.
Correcting
room acoustics
Each
room has its
own
particular
effects on
frequency
characteristics.
These effects are determined by a
number
of conditions, such as
room
size,
furnishings, etc.
The 7 separate divisions of the band
level
control
on thls unit
make it
possible
to selectively correct only
the frequency
ranges necessary to suit the conditions of each
listening

to correct the

Cutting the
noise
from
live
recording tapes
Live tapes recorded outdoors
generally
contain
popping
noises
caused by wind and various other
noises
from the sur-
rounding
area. ln order to effectively eliminate wind noise,
cut bass
sounds below 63
Hz and raise the level
of sounds
in
the 400 Hz range Then
control sounds
made by birds, etc.,
with a 6 3 kHz adjustment.
For
creation ol unique,

per-
sonalized

Producing
clear vocals
For female
vocals, raise the level
of
the I kHz-2
5 kHz
range
by 2-4
dB
To rectify
omission, raise the level of the
6.3 kHz vicinity
slightly.
Male vocals
can be improved by raising the level of the 400
