ACTIVE SERVO TECHNOLOGY

    A["High-amplitude bass sound"] --> B["Cabinet Port"]
    B --> C["Air woofer (Helmholtz resonator)"]
    C --> D["Active Servo Processing Amplifier"]
    D --> E["Signals"]
    B --> F["Signals of low amplitude"]
    F --> G["Negative-impedance output drive"]

The theory of the Active Servo Technology is based upon two major factors, the Helmholtz resonator and negative-impedance drive. Active Servo Processing speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an "air woofer", which is a small port or opening in the speaker's cabinet. This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system. Thus, signals of low amplitude within the cabinet can, according to the Helmholtz resonance theory, be output from this opening as waves of great amplitude if the design is such that the size of the opening and the volume of the cabinet are in the correct proportion to satisfy a certain ratio. In order to accomplish this, moreover, the amplitudes within the cabinet must be both precise and of sufficient power because these amplitudes must overcome the "load" presented by the air that exists within the cabinet.

Thus it is this problem that is resolved through the employment of a design in which the amplifier functions to supply the signals. If the electrical resistance of the voice coil is reduced to zero, the movement of the speaker unit would become linear with respect to signal voltage, and, to accomplish this, a special negative-impedance output-drive amplifier for subtracting output impedance of the amplifier is used.

By employing negative-impedance drive circuits, the amplifier is able to generate precise, low-amplitude low-frequency waves with superior damping characteristics, and these waves are then radiated from the cabinet opening as high-amplitude signals. The system can, therefore, by employing the negative-impedance output drive amplifier and a speaker cabinet with the Helmholtz resonator, reproduce an extremely wide range of frequencies with amazing sound quality and less distortion.

The features described above are combined to be the fundamental structure of the Active Servo Technology.

2 Select the reception band [FM or AM (MW or LW)] by pressing the BAND button while watching the display.
3 Press the AUTO/MAN'L button so that "AUTO TUNING" appears on the display. (In this mode, stations are received in stereo or monaural automatically.)
4 Press the TUNING UP button to tune to a higher frequency, or press the TUNING DOWN button to tune to a lower frequency.
5 If the station where tuning search stopped is not the desired one, follow step 4 again.
* If the tuning search does not stop at the desired station, change to the Manual tuning method as described below.
* STEREO indicator will illuminate when an FM stereo broadcast with sufficient signal strength is received.

Manual tuning

1 Follow steps 1 and 2 of the Automatic tuning method.
2 Press the AUTO/MAN'L button so that "AUTO TUNING" disappears from the display. (In this mode, stations are received in monaural.)
3 Press and hold the TUNING UP button to tune to a higher frequency, or press and hold the TUNING DOWN button to tune to a lower frequency. Release it just before reaching the desired frequency, and then press it repeatedly until the desired frequency appears.

Note

If you tune to an FM station manually, it is received in monaural automatically to increase the signal quality.

Preset tuning

This unit can store station frequencies selected by tuning operation. With this function, you can select any desired station by only calling the corresponding preset station number. Up to 40 stations (8 stations x 5 areas) can be stored.

To store stations

(Example: To store a station to A1)

1 Tune to a desired station. (Refer to the previous page for tuning procedure.)
2 Press the MEMORY button. * The MEMORY indicator will flash for about 5 seconds.
3 Select a desired area (A - E) by pressing the A/B/C/D/E button while watching the display, before the MEMORY indicator goes out. (In this case, select area A)
4 Select a preset station number by pressing the TUNER PRESET DOWN or UP button repeatedly before the MEMORY indicator goes out. (In this case, select "1".)

5 Within about 5 seconds, press the MEMORY button again.

* In the same way, program other stations to A2, A3 ... A8.
* You can program more stations to the preset station numbers on other areas in the same way by selecting other areas in step 2.

To recall a preset station

1 Select the area of preset station numbers by pressing the A/B/C/D/E button.
2 Select the desired preset station number by pressing the TUNER PRESET DOWN or UP button repeatedly.

Notes

• A new setting can be programmed in place of the former one.
• For presets the setting of the AUTO/MAN'L button is stored along with the station frequency.

For easier operation

By using the preset station number buttons and the A,B,C,D,E selector buttons on the remote control transmitter, a preset station number and an area can be selected directly.

Automatic preset tuning

You can also make use of an automatic preset tuning function. By this function, this unit performs automatic tuning and stores stations with strong signals sequentially. Up to 40 stations are stored automatically in the same way as in the manual preset tuning method on the previous page.

1 Select the tuner so that "TUNER" appears on the display by pressing the INPUT selector or button.
2 Press and hold the AUTO MEMORY button for about 2 seconds. * The MEMORY and AUTO TUNING indicators will flash.

This unit performs automatic tuning and received stations are programmed to A1, A2 ... A8 sequentially.

After the automatic preset tuning is completed

The display shows the frequencies of the first preset station (stored to A1).

Check the contents and the number of preset stations by following the procedure of the section "To recall a preset station" on the previous page.

To recall a preset station

Simply follow the procedure of the section "To recall a preset station" on the previous page.

Notes

• The automatic preset tuning search will be performed through all frequencies until 40 stations are stored. If the number of received stations is less than 40, the search will stop after searching through all frequencies.
• With this function, only stations with sufficient signal strength are stored automatically. If the station you want to program is weak in signal strength, tune to it in monaural manually and program it by following the procedure of the section "To store stations" on the previous page.
• You can replace a preset station by another FM or AM (MW or LW) station manually by simply following the procedure of the section "To store stations" on the previous page.

Fundamental rules of internal automatic preset tuning operation

Basically, FM stations are programmed onto area A, B and C, and AM stations are programmed onto area D and E (MW stations are onto D and LW stations are onto E) in that order automatically.

* If, for example, the number of received FM stations is not enough to fill up three areas (A, B and C), AM (MW or LW) stations are programmed closely from the preceding empty areas. In such a case, AM (MW) stations are programmed from area B or C (and LW stations are from area C or D.)
* Moreover, one area is programmed with stations of the same band only. If, for example, the last FM station is programmed to B4, B5–B8 will be programmed with no station, and AM (MW) stations are programmed from area C.

Memory back-up

The memory back-up circuit prevents the programmed data from being lost even if the AC supply lead is disconnected from the AC outlet or the power is cut due to temporary power failure. If, however, the power is cut for more than one week, the memory may be erased. If so, it can be re-programmed by simply following the Preset tuning steps.

TAPE DECK OPERATION

Dolby B and C Type Noise Reduction

With cassette tapes, the most noticeable form of noise is high frequency hiss. To reduce this hiss noise, this unit has been equipped with a newly developed Dolby C noise reduction system in addition to its conventional Dolby B NR. Either type of noise reduction may be selected with the switch provided. Dolby B NR has a noise reduction effect of about 10 dB in the high frequency range. The corresponding figure with Dolby C NR is about 20 dB, but this is over the entire range where the human ear is most sensitive to noise (2 kHz to 8 kHz). Also, Dolby C NR has the same noise reduction effect at both high and low signal levels. In addition, Dolby C NR improves the tape's MOL (Maximum Output Level). Dolby noise reduction is a 2 part process that acts both on recording and playback; be sure that the noise reduction button is set to the same position on record and play. * Noise in the source material cannot be reduced with the Dolby NR system.

• When headphones are connected, the speakers are defeated automatically. Adjust the VOLUME control for desired volume.

MAINTENANCE

Internal care

• Dirty heads, capstans and pinch rollers can cause poor sound and tape jams.
  Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with commercially available head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol, or with a commercially available cleaning tape.
• After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become magnetized, causing poor sound. Demagnetize these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial tape head demagnetizer. Read the demagnetizer's instructions carefully before use.

External care

• Periodically clean the surfaces of this system, especially the top panel of the receiver to prevent the ventilation holes from being blocked with dust etc.
• Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other chemicals. (See "Precautions".)
