Features • Adoption of TAPE OUT selector and FUNCTION selector to enable listening to another source during air check or dubbing as well as recording and playback through equalizer or noise reduction system. • 40A HICC (high instantaneous current capability) to enable ample driving against fluctuation in dynamic impedance of speakers for clear controlled sound reproduction. • High-sensitivity amplifier especially designed for MC cartridge to enable use of low-impedance, low-sensitivity MC cartridge. • Adoption of power output transistor with sufficient margin even during high power operation. • Adoption of CAPACITANCE TRIM selector for selection of optimal load capacitance to maximize cartridge performance. • SUBSONIC FILTER for elimination of sound distortion caused by extremely low frequency component because of wide-band design laying stress on sound quality. • TONE DEFEAT switch to obtain flat frequency characteristic by single touch. • Functional face layout allowing easy operation by mainly adopting push-button switches. General Instructions Always use the correct AC voltage Always connect the AC cord to a household mains outlet. Do not connect the unit to an outlet supplying a higher voltage to prevent fire. Handle the AC cord carefully • Always hold the plug when disconnecting the AC cord from the outlet. Pulling at the cord may cause discontinuity. • If the unit is not used for a prolonged period, disconnect the plug from the outlet. • Do not place or drop a heavy material such as furniture on the cord. Otherwise the cord may be damaged to cause fire or shock hazard. Do not open the cabinet To prevent shock hazard or unexpected trouble, do not tamper with internal components for inspection or maintenance. Harman Kardon does not guarantee performance degradation resulting from any modification. When water or a metal piece enters the unit When water, a hair pin or wire accidentally enters the unit, immediately extract the AC plug from the outlet to prevent shock or trouble. ce6isa, Locations for Installation *Always disconnect the plug from the outlet before making connections with other components. Select a firm level base. Avoid the following locations: • Place exposed to excessive moisture • Place exposed to direct sunlight or near a heat source • Cold place such as near a cooling air outlet • Dusty place • Place exposed to excessive vibration • Poorly ventilated place 0 3.8 0 y When piling with other components, carefully plan so as to obtain good heat radiation from this unit. Use of a Harman Kardon audio rack is recommended. 3
