The TX- DS898 provides a number of listening modes perfect for listening to the radio and getting the most out of your audio system. Also, by presetting radio stations that you listen to frequently, you can select

them easily by pressing the CH button on the remote controller.

station noise may be heard, but the sound will

 

not cut in and out as it would if stereo was

 

selected.
