While the MAIN IN function is on, the A-9755’s tone
controls have no effect.
Setting the PURE DIRECT Function
The [PURE DIRECT] button turns the
PURE DIRECT function on and off.
When the PURE DIRECT function is
off, the tone controls can be used to
adjust the sound, and the PURE DIRECT indicator goes
off.
When the PURE DIRECT function is on, the tone con-
trols are bypassed, so you can enjoy a pure sound. The
PURE DIRECT indicator lights up.
Adjusting the Bass
The BASS control adjusts bass
sounds. Turn it up to make them
louder. Turn it down to make them
quieter. Normally, it should be set
midway.
Adjusting the Treble
The TREBLE control adjusts treble
sounds. Turn it up to make them
louder. Turn it down to make them
quieter. Normally, it should be set
midway.
By pressing the [LOUDNESS] button,
both treble and bass are reinforced
when the volume is turned down low.
Use this button according to the music
source and according to the listening area. Its purpose is
to enrich the natural sound effects of both the treble and
bass.
The indicator lights up when the LOUDNESS function
is on.
• When using the A-9755 as a power amplifier (MAIN
IN function), the Loudness control doesn’t work.
• When the PURE DIRECT function is on, the Loud-
ness control is disabled.
