Introducing the Optimus STAV-3580

Your Optimus STAV-3580 Digital Synthesized A/V Surround Receiver is the per- fect control center for your audio/video system. It combines 110 watts-per-chan- nel of clean power with modern styling and provides connections for one tape deck, one audio/video source, one more tape deck or audio/video playback source, a turntable, a CD player, and a video monitor.

Your receiver also has special sound options. Dolby Pro-Logic Surround Sound delivers movie theater sound for audio/video programs (especially those encoded with Dolby Surround Sound signals). Dolby 3CH Logic provides a wider sound field than ordinary playback. Studio Effect simulates the ambiance of a recording studio, adding extra richness to your music. Simulated Surround gives you a surround-sound effect even when you listen to monaural sources.

Additional features include:

Digital-Synthesized Tuner Precisely tunes to AM and FM stations.

Multi-Jog Tuning Offers you a simple tuning method for either memorized stations or the entire frequency range.

Automatic Tuning Searches for the next available AM/FM station.

30 Memory Locations Let you store and recall the frequencies for up to 30 AM/FM stations.

Subwoofer Output Lets you easily connect an amplified subwoofer that delivers the very low fre- quency bass sounds, bringing out the richness and depth of music plus the full impact of motion-picture special effects for sound you can actually feel.

Super Bass Creates a richer, fuller sound by enhancing the audio program’s bass.

Tape Monitoring Lets you listen to the actual recording as you record, if your tape deck has a tape-monitoring feature.

Built-In Protection Circuits Turn off the receiver to help avoid power surge or short circuit damage.

Remote Control Lets you use a single remote control for the receiver and other compatible com- ponents connected to the receiver.

Display Blanking Lets you turn off the display so the light does not disturb you in low-light situa- tions.
