The High grade Micro Component Series
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.
Timer Operation
Prpasection
The clock function of the receiver can be used for timer playback and timer recording of source equipment
(CD player, cassette deck, MD recorder).

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.

7Amplifier unit that accomplishes high grade sound quality and low distortion
¶“Pure A” High Quality Mode at Low Volume
e
When listening with low volume close to the set or late at night, we recommend the “Pure A” operation mode. Then you
can enjoy smooth high-quality sound with little distortion. Please use the normal mode to listen at higher volumes.
7CD player unit that accomplishes improved sound quality and stability
¶Newly developed D.R.I.V.E. IC installed
A D.R.I.V.E. (Dynamic Resolution Incentive Vector Enhancement) IC that rapidly improves distortion at minute
levels is installed in the CD player in order to extract the maximum performance possible from the CD.

7Convenient easy to use operation
¶Easy Operation
When the High grade Micro component series is connected to the system control, input switching with the
input selector (TAPE, TUNER, CD, MD) of the R-SG7 will start playback by the selected unit. Reversely, when
playback is started from a unit, the input will be switched automatically to this unit.
¶CD TEXT compatibility
Disc title and track names recorded on the CD appear in the display of the MD player (DM-SG7: sold separately).
¶Convenient Edit Recording
fl
Basic
Time edit recording: Recording so that no track is interrupted within the specified time.
One-touch edit recording: When listening to a CD, either a single track or the entire CD can be recorded on tape
by one-touch operation.

¶Simple Timer Operation
t
The wake-up timer and the sleep timer can be set easily.
A daily program timer also can be reserved.

For reception of RDS stations, the RDS auto

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.
