TA-5000
Commentary

A solid-state stereo receiver that consists of all transistors for both the pre-main tuner and the main tuner.

The complimentary service SEPP-OTL system is used without using an input transformer.
In addition, an EPC protection circuit is used to prevent damage to the power transistor due to shorting of the speaker circuit.

The tuner section uses a five train varicon with three FM-trains and two AM-trains.
In addition, the IF circuit design of 4-stage amplification and 2-stage limiter enables reception with less distortion even in low-power regions.

The automatic switching device between FM stereo and mono is purely electronic and automatically switched. The signal is received automatically by stereo broadcast transmission.

In addition to the AFC circuit and SCA filter circuit, auxiliary circuits such as FM muting circuit, FM stereo beacon, headphone jack and DIN connector are mounted.

An original inclined panel is adopted from the viewpoint of ergonomics.
