Commentary

FM/AM multi-stereo tri-amplifier capable of receiving FM multi-stereo.

The power amplifier section uses a push-pull circuit using 6BQ5.
In addition, the preamplifier section is fully DC ignited, and there is no hum sound even when playing a record.
The FM tuner uses a 3-row varicon, and by adopting a circuit such as a double limiter, stability and high sensitivity are achieved.

A high-frequency amplifier circuit with a 3-channel varicon is used for Nakanami broadcasting.
Equipped with ferrite bar antenna.

It is equipped with a noise filter so that even when the noise of the FM stereo broadcast transmission comes in, it can receive sound with reduced noise.

Equipped with FM stereo indicator.

It is equipped with functions such as loudness control, tape monitor circuit and tone control.
