POWER ON/OFF

When turned on, the TLP 1 will have all of the same settings it had when it was last turned
off, except for Volume, which comes on at -30 dB.

3.2

MASTER CONTROL KNOB

Besides being a Volume Control, the MASTER CONTROL KNOB also operates other functions, including
adjustment of Bass / Treble / Balance, FM•AM tuning, Input Level, and Display Brightness selection.

Mute:
When MUTE is pressed, the audio output is silenced. Press MUTE again, or rotate the Master
Control Knob to adjust the volume, and sound will return.

SOURCE SELECTION

The TLP 1 accommodates up to five external sources plus the built-in FM • AM stereo tuner. The main path
selection is completely independent from the record path selection.

Main Path:
To make a source selection, simply press the corresponding button.

Record Path:
To make a selection for the Record outputs, press Record, then
press a source button within 3 seconds – the red indicator will
remain lit for the duration of the selection period.

Adjust Input Levels:
You can match main path input levels to each other to prevent large changes in volume as you change from
one source to another. Press and hold the source button of the input you want to adjust, and when ‘Lvl +0.0’
appears on the display, adjust using the Master Control Knob before the main display returns.

Before making input level adjustments, have all connected source components playing similar music
material. Also, make sure that all four tuner banks are tuned to a station (see below). Then, as you switch
through each source, you will hear that component play. This allows for easy comparative level adjustments.

Note: The selected tuner bank immediately changes when pressing FM•AM. To adjust AM input level,

select FM-3 first, then press and hold FM•AM and the band will automatically change to AM.

Knob to find a station.
