This epoch-making SRS 3D (Sound Retrieval System 3 Dimen-
sion) system produces a three dimensional sound stage fram
normal steree signals. It greatly improves the perceived width
and depth of the sound stage, as well as sound imaging, while
expanding the listening area. ~( 12)
MURU OIE DOCS OL oe 3552 turret antec Meee, This unit incorporates a function for storing received stations in
preset memory with a simple operation. It is very convenient ta
preset the stations you like. The preset stations can be recalled
also very easily. — (6)
Speaker System et cnesntue we Setting the Speaker impedance Selector to match the impedance
of your speakers allows you to fake full advantage of your
speaker's performance characteristics by driving them under the
best possible conditions.
We've also included 2 sets of speaker terminals so you can
connect twe different sounding speaker systems, or use two sets
of speakers at once (only when both sets of speakers have an
impedance of 8 ohins or more). (5)
TAPE.2 (MONITOR) ...... PT er en The TAPE 2 (MONITOR) jacks of this unit accept the connection
of a cassette deck, graphic equalizer, surround processar, etc.
Wen a 3-head cassette deck is connected to the TAPE 2 (fMONI-
TOR) jacks, it is possible to monitor the sound which has just
been recorded during recording. (13)
Remote controllable audio function. By connecting KENWOOD source components such as a cassette
deck and CD player through system control connection, the basic
operations of these components can be controlled from the
remote contra{ unit provided with this unit. A single remote

The FM DE-EMPHASIS / CHANNEL SPACE switch on the rear panel
is Set to the correct setting that prevails in the area to which the
unit is shipped. However, if the FM DE-EMPHASIS / CHANNEL
SPACE setting is not matched to the aréa where the unit is to be
used; for instance, when you moved from area 1 to area 2 or vice
versa, desired reception of AM / FM broadcasts is not expected. In
this case, change the FM DE-EMPHASIS / CHANNEL SPACE set-
ting in accordance with the area corresponding to the table. The FM
DE-EMPHASIS is switched_over at the same time.
e When changing the setting of the FM DE-EMPHASIS / CHANNEL
SPACE switch, first disconnect the power cord of the amplifier,
then reset the channel space switch, connect the power cord
again, and turn the power on.

-€ the basis of the human listening patterns. This permits real
depth and a wide sound stage which is considered difficuit to
achieve with conventional 2 channel stereo. The “SRS” effect
can be obtained from any stereo source i.e.; CD, Tape, Stereo
