About the Instruction Manual

While some models of the High grade Micro component series have an instruction manual explaining

the system operation for R-SG7 (receiver), DP-SG7 (CD player), and X-SG7 (cassette deck), other mod-

els have only an operation manual for that model itself. This is done so that the system operation can

be done easily even when optional equipment is purchased at a later date. Please read the required

sections according to the components you purchased.

With the High grade Micro component series, the system explanations show only the connection method

for the DM-SG7 (MD recorder). Please refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the DM-SG7 for the

detailed operation.

What is Pure A?

The amplifier section amplifies the voltage and current of the input signal from the CD etc. and sends the output to the

speakers. In order to suppress the distortion occurring with this amplification, amplifiers with class A operation or class AB

operationalwayshavecurrentflowingthroughthecircuitsforcurrentamplification.Thisiscalledtheidlingcircuit.Especially

an amplifier with class A operation has a high idling current in comparison to an amplifier with class AB operation, which

is used by many units. As the result, class A operation has distortion suppressed to a minimum, and smooth playback with

high quality is possible. However, as a certain amount of power is consumed even when no music source is played, the

temperature of the amplifier section will become comparatively high. Thus a high-class amplifier with a large-capacity

power supply is required to enjoy the sound quality of class A operation.

Kwldgections

The amplifier of this unit normally operates in class AB operation, but as the high sound quality of class A operation can

be enjoyed easily, a class A operation mode for listening at low volume (pure A) has been provided. Please enjoy the pure
