Introducing the Optimus STAV-3680
Your Optimus STAV-3680 Audio/Video Receiver is the perfect control center for
your audio/video system. It combines 500 watts total Pro Logic Surround Sound
power with five equal-power discrete amplifiers and provides connections for
one tape deck, one VCR, two more tape decks or audio/video playback
sources, a turntable, a CD player, and a video monitor.
Your receiver also has special sound options. Dolby Pro Logic ‘ Surround Sound
delivers movie theater sound for audio/video programs (especially those en-
coded with Dolby Surround Sound signals).
Dolby 3CH Logic provides a wider
sound field than ordinary playback. Studio Effect simulates the ambiance of a
recording studio, adding extra richness to your music. 5-D Theater provides
clear dynamic sound effects by sending audio signals to the rear channel to
simulate stereo sounds.
Additional features include:
Digital-Synthesized Tuner Precisely tunes to AM and FM stations.
Multi-Jog Tuning Offers you a simple tuning method for either memorized stations or the entire
frequency range.
30 Memory Locations Let you store and recall the frequencies for up to 30 AM/FM stations.
Subwoofer Output Lets you easily connect an amplified subwoofer that delivers the very low fre-
quency bass sounds, bringing out the richness and depth of music plus the full
impact of motion-picture special effects for sound you can actually feel.
Tape Monitoring Lets you listen to the actual recording as you record, if your tape deck has a
tape-monitoring feature.
Built-In Protection Circuits Automatically turn off the receiver to help avoid power surges or short circuit
damage.
Remote Control Lets you use a single remote control for the receiver and other compatible com-
ponents connected to the receiver.
Note: The remote control requires two AA batteries (not supplied).
.
We recommend you record the receiver’s serial number here. The serial number is on
the receiver’s back panel.
