∫ Features of this unit
This unit offers the following features:
Full-digital amplifier with a high-precision jitter reduction c ircuit and PWM conversion circuit
This unit is a full-digital amplifier. Its specially-designed j itter reduction circuit and high-precision PWM conversion circu it eliminate 
distortion, noise, and jitter.
LAPC (Load Adaptive Phase Calibration)
Adaptive processing of speaker impedance flattens frequency amplitude and phase characteristics. The result is the reproductio n 
of sound with rich spatial expression.
High-speed and lower noise linear power supply
The combination of a large-current Schottky-barrier diode, a re ctifier circuit with a large storage capacitor, and a stabilized power 
supply circuit achieves remarkably superior power supply that i s both low-noise and plentiful.
∫Recommended devices
We recommend using Technics devices (optional) for superior aud io quality.

Getting started
≥Turn off all equipment before connection and read the appropria te operating instructions.
≥ Do not connect the AC power supply cord until all other connect ions are complete.
≥ Insert the plugs of the cables to be connected all the way in.
≥ Do not bend cables at sharp angles.
1Turn the knobs to loosen them, and insert the core wires into the holes.
2Tighten the knobs.
	
≥ When the connections are completed, pull the speaker cables lig htly to check that they are connected firmly.
≥ Be careful not to cross (short-circuit) or reverse the polarity  of the speaker wires as doing so may damage the 
amplifier.
≥ Wire the polarity ( r/s ) of the terminals correctly. Not doing so may adversely affect  stereo effects or cause 
malfunction.
≥ For details, refer to the operating instructions of the speaker s.
