Never has
any receiver combined such exceptional high performance with so many
audiorefinemental a full 100W at 8 ohms over a frequency response from 10 to a
fantastic 100,000 Hz Advanced solid state circuitry with Field Effect
Transistor and Integrated Circuits and a 4-gang variable capacitor - for
significantly superior sensitivity and limiting. Two tuning meters, an
unusually wide range of inputs and outputs, precise tone controls and a host of
important innovations. Meticulously engineered. Stunningly styled. Truly one of
the finest audio components ever created.
Features
High-performance
FM Tuner
An FET
(Field-Effect Transistor) is used in the radio-frequency amplifier to attain a
high sensitivity and selectivity. Further, four ICs (Integrated Circuits) are
used for the intermediate frequency amplifier to eliminate interference and
noise.
Built-In Excellent FM MPX Circuit
This
switching circuit having excellent separation and frequency response is built
in for reproduction of reality music.
Built-In Highly-Sensitive Ferrite Antenna for
AM Radio Reception
The ferrite
antenna provides high-sensitivity reception of AM broadcast programs.
Special
Curcuitry for Versatility
The high
output given by strictly selected transistors, two sets of loudspeaker
terminals and phono terminals, and the provision for using a microphone make
Model SX-990 suitable for the professional use as well as the family use.
A variety of
Accessories
Accessories
include the program lamps that indicate the program being played, the tuning
meters vertically arranged for facilitating selection of an FM broadcast
program, the loudspeaker selector switch, tape monitor switch, etc, all for
enjoyable use of Model SX-990.
