FEATURES

1.

LOW

DISTORTION

POWER

AMPLIFIER

SECTION

The

power

amplifier

section

is

composed

of

a

current

mirror

load

differential

amplifier,

a

class-A

amplifier,

and

an

inverted

Darlington

type

pure

complementary

circuit.

The

first

stage

is

a

transistorized

differential

amplifier

to

which

a

current

mirror

circuit

is

loaded.

The

current

mirror

circuit

increases

the

gain

at

the

first

stage

and

assures

low

distortion

and

stability.

The

power

amplifier

stage

consists

of

an

inverted

Darlington

type

pure

complementary

circuit

to

improve

the

power

supply

efficiency

and

to

obtain

high

output

power.

If

DC

voltage

exceeding

specified

limit

is

developed

at

the

output

terminal,

the

protective

circuit

turns

off

the

relay

to

prevent

the

speakers

from

being

damaged.

This

circuit

also

functions

as

a

delay

start

circuit.

2.

SEPARATION

OF

LEFT

AND

RIGHT

CHANNELS

POWER

SUPPLY

This

power

supply

system

is

of

DPS

(dual

power

supply)

type

with

a

2-winding

transformer.

The

power

transformer

uses

a

large

sized

El

core

to

provide

excellent

regulation.

The

combination

of

this

transformer

and

a

large

filter

capacitor

forms

a

dual

power

supply

system

to

supply

power

to

L

and

R

channels

respectively.

This

power

supply

system

eliminates

dynamic

crosstalk

as

well

as

it

assures

reliable

operation

of

the

amplifier.

The

power

supply

unit

for

the

preamplifier

is

equipped

with

a

transistorized

power

voltage

regulator

to

improve

the

circuit

operation

stability

and

the

quality

of

sound.

3.

TONE

CONTROL

CIRCUIT

The

tone

control

circuit

has

FET

at

the

first

stage;

it

also

contains

dual

power

supply

unit,

2-stage

direct-coupled

flat

amplifier

and

bass/treble

control

circuit.

This

control

circuit

is

so

called

BAX

type

NF

control

circuit

that

assures

high

stability

and

low

distortion.

The

flat

amplifier

is

of

the

ICL

(input

capacitorless)

type

to

adjust

bass

and

treble

tones

up

to

±7.5

dB

at

about

1.5

dB

steps,

thus

enabling

fine

adjustment

of

tonal

quality.

4.

ICL

EQUALIZER

WITH

FET

CIRCUIT

This

circuit

is

a

simplified

ICL

circuit

consisting

of

FET

input

amplifier,

class-A

amplifier

and

pure

complementary

SEPP

amplifier.

The

use

of

newly

developed

super

low

noise

FET

and

cleverly

designed

circuit

reduces

the

impedance

of

the

entire

circuit

to

improve

S/N

ratio

to

86

dB

(2.5

mV

input,

IHF

A).

The

adoption

of

precision

resistors

and

film

capacitors

provides

RIAA

characteristic

with

error

of

±0.3

dB.

5.

SPECIAL

TAPE-THROUGH

CIRCUITRY

This

unit

has

facilities

for

simultaneous

recording

by

two

tape

decks

and

for

dubbing

from

deck

A

to

B.

In

addition,

Kenwood's

tape-through

circuitry

allows

you

to

dub

while

listening

to

a

different

program

source.

This

may

not

be

a

feature

you

will

use

every

day,

but

it

is

quite

practical

and

will

be

appreciated

when

the

occasion

arises.

6.

LARGE

POWER

METERS

VISUALLY

SHOW

OUTPUT

POWER

With

these

full-size

Power

meters

you

always

know

what

your

amplifier

is

doing.

You

can

visually

check

output

and

balance

channels.

A

refinement

for

audiophiles,

these

meters

are

large

and

illuminated

for

easy

reading.

Notice

that

sensitivity

is

adjustable

for

operation

at

both

high

and

low

levels

to

get

maximum

range

in

both

cases.

High:

0.1W

It

is

recommended

that

the

tips

are

soldered,

or

they

are

stranded

together

to

eliminate

any

possibility

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING

PRECAUTIONS

Do

not

use

volatile

liquid

such

alcohol,

thinner,

gasoline,

benzine,

etc.,

when

cleaning

the

unit

surface.

Use

silicon

cloth

or

soft

dry

cloth.

POWER

PLUG

•

Switch

off

the

unit

and

disconnect

the

power

plug

from

your

AC

outlet

immediately

if

the

abnormality

should

take

place.

•

When

you

connect

or

disconnect

the

power

plug

from

your

AC

outlet,

never

do

it

with

wet

hands

to

avoid

unexpected

accident

from

elec¬

tric

shock.

Besides,

do

it

by

holding

the

power

plug

itself,

not

the

power

cord.

•

It

is

desirable

to

disconnect

the

power

plug

from

your

AC

outlet

when

you

leave

your

house

for

a

long

time.

POWER

CORD

•

The

power

cord

must

not

be

pulled

strongly,

nor

bent

forcibly,

nor

scratched,

nor

extended

by

connecting

an

extra

cord.

This

will

damage

the

cord

and

be

a

cause

of

electric

shock

and

a

fire.

•

Do

not

put

a

heavy

thing

on

the

power

cord.

PREVENTION

OF

INTRUSION

OF

METALLIC

SUBSTANCE

IN

UNITS

The

case

top

is

provided

with

ventilation

holes.

Never

close

these

holes

with

ornamental

cloth,

etc.

Be

careful

not

to

put

a

coin,

hairpin,

needle,

etc.,

into

the

unit

through

the

holes.

Otherwise,

it

may

be

a

case

of

malfunction

and

electric

shock.

Such

trouble

is

often

caused

by

in¬

fants.

PREVENTION

OF

MODIFICATION

Each

unit

is

shipped

after

passing

careful

adjustments

to

the

optimum

operating

con¬

ditions.

The

unit

interior

must

not

be

modidified.

Some

parts

of

the

interior

are

applied

with

high

voltage.

Never

dismantle

the

case

and

touch

the

internal

parts.

Only

the

qualified

servicemen

are

in

charge

of

check-in

the

interiors.

PROTECTION

OF

SPEAKERS

SYSTEM

Lower

the

sound

volume

when

switching

the

amplifier

on

or

changing

over

the

program

source

to

another.

You

should

make

it

a

rule

to

move

the

volume

control

knob

to

a

low

sound

level

before

you

turn

the

POWER

switch

on.

Sudden

feeding

of

a

large

input

power

may

damage

the

speaker

systems.

If

you

keep

such

a

habit,

the

speaker

systems

can

be

protected

against

the

attack

of

violent

noise

occurring

when

a

stylus

is

put

on

a

disc

or

broadcasting

station

is

selected.

ACOUSTIC

FEEDBACK

Occasionally

a

disturbing

howling

sound

caused

by

acoustic

feedback,

may

be

heard.

This

is

generally

caused

by

the

relative

positions

of

the

turntable

and

speaker

enclosures.

The

sound

pressure

radiated

from

the

speaker

box

surrounds

and

vibrates

the

turntable.

This

vibration

is

picked

up

by

the

cartridge,

sent

to

the

unit

as

an

electrical

signal,

and

return¬

ed

to

the

speaker.

This

again

causes

the

speakers

to

radiate

vibration

which

induces

sympathetic

vibrations

in

the

turntable

and

cartridge.

Sym¬

pathetic

vibrations

are

reinforced

with

each

repeating

cycle

and

result

in

an

undesirable

sound

called

oscillation

or

“howling".

To

prevent

it,

keep

your

turntable

away

from

your

speakers.

Also

mounting

your

turntable

on

shock-absorbing

pads

may

help.
