Commentary

This AV pre-main amplifier is compatible with not only audio but also video.

Taking over the design philosophy of the A-150D and A-120D, the audio and video systems are separated from the power transformer windings to reduce interference from the video signal to the audio signal.
In addition, a non-switching circuit typeII has been adopted to improve the drive capability when mounting a speaker and the low-load drive capability that can reproduce peaks of digital sources with sufficient space. Thermal distortion has been eliminated to realize low distortion.

Equipped with video input Line 5 and audio input Line 5 jacks.
In addition, surround processors can also be connected using the audio adapter connector.
Equipped with a video input terminal that can be connected to two monitor TVs.

It is equipped with functions such as dynamic expander and simulated stereo which changes monaural software into wide surround sound.

You can use the Video Signal Selector to mix sound and video from audio and visual sources in a flexible manner.

VTR dubbing editing is possible with the internal enhancer (3 positions) and recording monitor.
In addition, the recording selector function allows you to record on the back of your VTR while watching the source or TV.
