Thank you for purchasing the High grade Micro component series.  
This system is available in various configuration according to your preferences.  
The system configuration is up to you, but as the following convenient system operations can be  
executed by connecting the various units to the system control, the respective units should be pur-  
chased as required.  
Remote Control  
The remote control supplied with the receiver can be used for basic operation of the source units (CD  
player, cassette deck, MD recorder).  
Automatic Operation  
When playback is started on the playback source unit, the input selector on the amp tuner will  
automatically be set to input for that source unit. Also, when source input is selected on the amp tuner,  
playback of the input source unit will be started automatically.  
Synchronized Recording  
With recording from CD or MD, it is possible to start synchronized recording by the recording unit (MD  
recorder or cassette deck). (Recording from one MD recorder onto another one is not possible.)  
There are also other convenient functions like one-touch edit recording for CD and MD etc.

About the Instruction Manual  
While some models of the High grade Micro component series have an instruction manual explaining  
the system operation for R-SG7 (receiver), DP-SG7 (CD player), and X-SG7 (cassette deck), other mod-  
els have only an operation manual for that model itself. This is done so that the system operation can  
be done easily even when optional equipment is purchased at a later date. Please read the required  
sections according to the components you purchased.  
With the High grade Micro component series, the system explanations show only the connection method  
for the DM-SG7 (MD recorder). Please refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the DM-SG7 for the  
detailed operation.

(EON reservation)  
To be able to listen to the desired information at any time  
By using the EON function, which manages the information of other stations, listening to desired information like  
traffic information or news etc. can be reserved even when it is not being transmitted at the present. When  
listening to a station with the “EON” display lit and another station of the same network starts to broadcast an  
information program for which a reservation has been made, then that station will be selected automatically.  
When the desired information program ends, return is made to the original program.  
For reception of RDS stations, the RDS auto presetting function must be used to preset the stations.  
Set the reception band to FM.  
Select the desired information.

Listening with High Sound Quality  
R-SG7/DP-SG7/X-SG7 (EN)

CAUTION  
When pure A mode is selected, a certain amount of  
power is used even when no music source is played

What is Pure A?  
The amplifier section amplifies the voltage and current of the input signal from the CD etc. and sends the output to the  
speakers. In order to suppress the distortion occurring with this amplification, amplifiers with class A operation or class AB  
operationalwayshavecurrentflowingthroughthecircuitsforcurrentamplification.Thisiscalledtheidlingcircuit.Especially  
an amplifier with class A operation has a high idling current in comparison to an amplifier with class AB operation, which  
is used by many units. As the result, class A operation has distortion suppressed to a minimum, and smooth playback with  
high quality is possible. However, as a certain amount of power is consumed even when no music source is played, the  
temperature of the amplifier section will become comparatively high. Thus a high-class amplifier with a large-capacity  
power supply is required to enjoy the sound quality of class A operation.  
Kwldgections  
The amplifier of this unit normally operates in class AB operation, but as the high sound quality of class A operation can  
be enjoyed easily, a class A operation mode for listening at low volume (pure A) has been provided. Please enjoy the pure  
A sound quality when listening at low volume close to the set, late at night, etc.
