3 head stereo cassette deck as for which the super GX head raised sound quality, a mechanism, and functionality in the core at direct-current amplifier, Dolbey
C, the double capstan DD, the computer play, etc.
3 head system by a
super GX head original with an acknowledged Akai is carried in the head part.
The head gap of 4micro of recording and 1micro of playbacks is prepared, the
engine performance of a super GX head in which the low noise crystal ferrite
which is proud of high permeability and high saturation magnetic flux density
was used for head core material is employed efficiently, and many
characteristics are raised.
The device selected carefully is thrown in
and direct-current amplifier excellent in sound quality, the phase
characteristic, and a dynamic range is carried.
Especially reproduction
amplifier was considered as the first rank operation amplifier and SEPP
composition by dual FET and dual Tr, is carrying out direct coupling to a
playback head, and has prevented sound quality degradation by the intervention
of a condenser.
Moreover, it is considering that have adopted the high
slew-rate IC operational amplifier as recording amplifier, and a power-source
part also makes the BI-FET operational amplifier which was excellent in the
linearity at line amplifier }2 power-source system etc. as the amplifier
composition which thought the quality as important.
In addition to the
Dolbey B type, the Dolbey C type is carried as a noise reduction system.
By C type, it has a noise reduction effect of 20dB which becomes twice
[ about ] in a zone (1kHz - 10kHz) compared with B type, and hysteresis
noise is banished below to the audible level.
Moreover, the noise reduction effect can be checked
into a recording monitor character by adopting a double process system with the
Dolbey circuit only for encoding and decoding.
The closed loop double
capstan system of distributed resonance type is adopted as a mechanism part.
The wow and flutter characteristic is improved because a 2-set Mino capstan
and a pinch roller intercept the disturbance ingredient from a reel. Moreover,
since the tension in a loop ideal for the tape near a head starts, the
higher-harmonic-wave distortion accompanying a run is pressed down, and also it
has the features -- the always stabilized head touch is obtained.
The brushless coreless FG servo DD motor original with an Akai which can
acquire high rotation accuracy and the high torque is adopted as a capstan
drive.
Furthermore, the tape run engine performance is improved according to the
original tape guide system which extended the hold range of a tape, lost
sticking-by-pressure unevenness, and banished level fluctuation and azimuth gap, and the reeled live mechanism by a high torque direct-current motor.
The quick & quiet mechanism original with an Akai is carried.
This is a
system which controls a setup in each mode of operation by the microcomputer and
motor only for system control, and has realized the outstanding response of standup 0.2 second of play operation.
If direct lead in is carried and a
cassette half is set to a holder, loading will be automatically carried out only
by pushing the operation button of hope, and it will go into directed operation.
Moreover, the power ejection from which a mechanism is immediately released
only by pushing an eject button also in a play is carried.
The intensive display system by a large-sized integral-type FL tube is
carried so that the operation state of a deck may be known at a glance.
If the Lec
cancellation mechanism is carried and a switch is pushed, after stopping
recording, rewinding between music automatically and carrying out mute recording
of about 4 seconds, it will be in a recording standby state.
In addition,
the intro scan, and IPLS (automatic search) and a memory AutoPlay function are
carried.
The auto tape selector is carried, a tape position is
automatically detected only by carrying out tape loading, and bias and an
equalizer are set as a reference value.
After carrying out mute
recording of about 4 seconds by one-touch, the auto mute used as recording
standby is carried.
The MPX filter switch is carried and the 19kHz pilot
signal at the time of an air check is suppressed.
The timer start
mechanism is carried.
It can be operated from the place left with option
remote control.
