The supply voltage is 120 volt AC (for UL and C.S.A. Models) (use 220/240 volt AC for European
and Australian Models), from a regulated power supply. The Power Source must insulated from
other equipment connected to antenna or output. The room temperature is 25 degrees C.
Nominal Specs represent the design specs; all units should be able to approximate these - some
will exceed and some may drop slightly below these specs.
Limit Specs represent the absolute worst condition which still might be considered acceptable; in
no case should a unit perform to less than within any Limit Specs.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROTECTIVE CIRCUIT
lf speaker terminals are shorted, or Load impedance of one channel (Left or Right) comes less
than 4 ohms, excessively high current flows from Emitter to Collector of TR 313 (or TR 314) and
a high voltage appears across R 323 (or R3241.
This high voltage goes to Gate of SCR D315 after being rectified by D 308 (or D 309). When the
voltage between Cathode and Gate increases to about 0.7 V, SCR D315 will be turned on.
Voltageat Pin No. 15on PowerSupply Board goesto -1 V to 0V, PRE AMP and TONE circuits
will stop functioning and thus protect MAIN Amp.
lf this should occur, the amplifier will automatically shut down and output will drop to zero. Turn
the receiver off to reset the protective circuit.
When the problem is corrected, turn the receiver on again.
