Aiwa
AD-3600U
The
advantages of 3-head performance needn't represent an extravagance to your
system budget. Here's quality 3-head model with an impressive array of
convenient features.
New DX
record/Pb combination head
Designed for
the more rigid demands of metal tape, the new DX head consruction departs
radicaslly from traditional concepts. A combination of high-density sendust and
ultra-hard permalloy, it features a pressure-formed 6-layer laminated core
uniquely designed to resist uneven wear of the tape contact surfaces. Gap width
is set at 4 microns for the record head, 1 micron for playback, giving each the
ideal capability for wider frequency response. Naturally the AD-3600 features a
monitor facility for comparasion of input signalswith the just-completed
recording - a sureadvantage over 2-head models
New Auto
Demagnetizing System (A.D.M.S)
Mo more
awkward treatments with bulky head demagnetizers; the AD-3600 incorporates a
sophisticated circuit which effectively removes magnetic saturation in the
record/playback head each time the unit's power is turned on. ADMS ensures that
recordings need never be marred by high-frequency losses or noise generated by
a magnetized head. Completely safe, even with a cassette loaded in the unit.
Operation
time: approx. 1,5 seconds.
Dolby HX
(Headroom Extension) system
This new
system from Dolby laboratories is incorporated into the conventional noise
reduction circuit but has the separate role of improving high frequency
response of demanding program material. Dolby HX functions by altering the
deck's bias and equalization levels as needed to maintain linearity of the
signals. As it operates during recording only, playback can be made in the
ordinary Dolby-ON position, thus making tapes recorded with the HX system
completely compatible with decks not equipped with HX circuitry.
