Headphones
•
Be sure that your headphones have a 3.5 mm (1/8”)
diameter plug and are between 16 ohms and 50 ohms
impedance. Recommended impedance is 32 ohms.
•
When listening with headphones privately, press the
POWER switch of the power amplifier to turn it off. Adjust
the VOLUME control for desired volume.
Internal care
•
Dirty heads, capstans and pinch rollers can cause poor
sound and tape jams. Clean these parts with a
commercially available head/pinch roller cleaning tape.
•
After long use, the deck’s heads and capstans may
become magnetized, causing poor sound. Demagnetize
these parts once every 30 hours of playing/recording time
by using a commercial tape head demagnetizer. Read the
demagnetizer’s instructions carefully before use.
External care
•
Periodically clean the surfaces of this system, especially
the top panel of the power amplifier to prevent the
ventilation holes from being blocked with dust etc.
•
Do not use chemically treated cleaning cloths or other
chemicals. (See “Precautions”.)
