Note

When using the integrated amplifier’s remote controller to operate u-connected components, their display brightness can only be adjusted in 2 levels.

Using the Direct Function

By bypassing the tone control circuit, the Direct function uses the shortest path for enhanced sound quality. Although this function generally turns the display off, the integrated amplifier makes use of a display that doesn’t affect the sound quality. It is therefore possible to turn the display on while the Direct function is enabled. Also, since the left/right balance setting uses a system that doesn’t affect the sound quality, the balance can be adjusted even if the Direct function is enabled.

DIRECT switch DIRECT LED

1 Set the DIRECT switch to the ON position.

The information display goes off and the DIRECT LED lights.

Tip

To turn the information display on while the Direct function is enabled, press DIMMER on the remote controller.
