■ The KRC-999II incorporates Dolby NR B/C types and the dbx NR system.
Dolby B type NR system
In general, Dolby NR refers to the B type noise reduction system. By encoding and decoding
the higher frequency components of a small signal, the noise level can be reduced by a max­
imum of 10 dB.
Dolby C type NR system
The dynamic range is expanded by 10 dB compared with the B type noise reduction system.
The anti-saturation circuit encodes and decodes higher level signals by a maximum of 3 dB
to reduce distortion when the input signal level is high,
dbx NR system
Higher level signals are reduced in level below the saturation level of the tape before being
recorded, while tower level signals are boosted in level above the tape hiss noise level before
being recorded. When these recorded signals are reproduced, higher level signals are played
back without distortion and lower level signals are reproduced without being masked by hiss
noise.
