siAISOOA DIRECT COUPLING PREAMPLIFIER SECTION So that its dynamic range is very wide,.the equalizer circuit of the SA-500A uses two-stage direct coupling negative feedback circuit with low-noise silicon transistors. For professional tone control, the unit off ers click-stop-type individual bass and treble controls that allow you to increase or decrease the audio signal delivered to the amplifier in measured steps. Thus, signals delivered from the unit sound the way you want them to. POWER AMPLIFIER SECTION The power amplifier section of the SA-500A is equipped with quasi-complimentary single ended push-pull circuit to ensure distortion-free sound reproduction and a wide frequency response. Music power output of the unit is 44 watts (measured at 4 ohms), more than you'll ever need to fill your music room with spectacular solid sound. The SA-500A can handle up to two different pairs of speaker systems, either separately or simultaneously, giving you the extra versatility of playing a small set of speakers in a room adjacent to your regular music listening room. The unit also lets you easily compare one set of speakers with another, or lets you select the appropriate speaker unit when systems are placed in dif-ferent rooms. TWO PHONOINPUTS The SA-5004 is equipped with all necessary input terminals to allow you to build a perfect components system. lt has two sets of phono input terminals in addition to a tuner and an auxiliary terminal. You may, if you wish, connect two turntables simultaneously. Or you may also use the jacks provided to compare two different cartridges or turntables. TWO TAPE DECK TERMINALS The SA-500A has two pairs of TAPE REC and MONITOR terminals so that you may operate two tape decks simulta- neously, choosing frorn an open-reel deck, a cassette deck or an B-track cartridge tape deck. This feature permits easy tape-to-tape dupl icati ng.
