POWER switch/indicator (POWER)

Press this switch to switch ON the power. The indicator will
illuminate while the power is ON.
Press the switch again to switch OFF the power.
Note the following cautions.

Before switching ON the power, be sure to set the volume
control of the pre-amplifier to the lowest setting in order to
avoid damage to the speakers.

The speaker-protection circuit functions to mute speaker
sound reproduction for a few seconds after the power is
switched ON.

SPEAKERS switches

Because one or two speaker systems can be connected to this
unit, these switches allow you to select speaker system A or B,
or both at once.

Input level controls (LEVEL)

These controls adjust the level of signals input to this unit.
Normally set these controls to the “10” (maximum) position,
and adjust the whole sound output level with the VOLUME
control of the pre-amplifier. However, if your speakers’
permissible music input power is not high enough or sounds
from the speakers are distorted, turn these controls
counterclockwise to decrease the level.

FRONT PANEL

STANDBY mode (For Europe model only)
If the REMOTE CONTROL (PRE AMP) connector on the rear
panel of this unit is connected to the corresponding connector
of the pre-amplifier (CX-1 or CX-2), by turning the power off
with the POWER switch of the pre-amplifier, this unit is
switched to the STANDBY mode. (In this mode, the indicator
over the POWER switch is half illuminated.)

Note
To turn the power off completely, disconnect the AC
power plug from the wall outlet.
