FOREWORD GENERAL For optimum performance and enjoyment from your Model 2230 Stereo Receiver, please study these instructions carefully. Installation and operation are not complicated, but its flexibility and features deserve your becoming familiar with its controls and connections. This manual is divided into two parts. The first covers installation and operation in simple, non-technical language.
Figure 1. Rear Panel Connection Facilities and Adjustments PREPARATION FOR USE REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS All s,gnal connections to the Model 2230, with the exception of the FM antenna and loudspeakers, should be made with shielded audio cables. Figure 1 shows the location of input and output jacks on the rear panel. These jacks are for "permanent" connections. Front panel jacks and their use will be discussed later. The rear panel signal connections are arranged in stereo pairs.
REPEAT WIRI NG AS FOR SYSTEM 1 Figure 2. Loudspeaker System Connections AUXILIARY LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEMS High level AUX input jacks are for miscellaneous sources such as extra tape players with selfcontained playback preamplifiers, phono cartridges with RIAA-equalized high-level output, additional tuners and/or receivers, TV sound outputs, and other external components.
(Note: Close inspection of standard zipcord will reveal some form of coding on the insulation, e.g., ridge or groove on one edge, one of the wires may be "silver" while the other is bare copper.) Coded wires help insure identical connections for each channel. For each channel, the coded wire can be connected between the "common" terminal of your loudspeaker and the GROUND terminal of the amplifier channel.
CONNECTION TO AC OUTLET With the front panel power pushswitch "out," plug the Iine cord into an electrical outlet supplying the proper voltage. CAUTION: DO NOT PLUG YOUR MODEL 2230 INTO A DC OUTLET. SINCE SERIOUS DAMAGE WILL OCCUR. CONVENIENCE Figure 4. AM Ferrite-rod Antenna ANTENNA ATTENUATOR The ANTENNA ATTENUATOR can be switched into or out of the antenna circuit.

LEFT CHANNEL COMMON RIGHT CHANNEL Figure 6. Stereophone Plug STEREOPHONES This jack accepts the standard 3-conductor phone plug used on standard stereo headphones (see Figure 6). It is internally connected to the power ampl ifier section through isolation resistors to provide adequate sound level with popular low impedance headphones as well as with high impedance ones. Two or more sets of headphones may be used with the aid of "Y" connectors.

generated by a local oscillator. This mixer converts the carrier frequency to the 10.7M Hz intermediate frequency. Careful attention to its thermal and electrical characteristics has minimized drift, thus obviating the necessity for AFC. The 10.7MHz converted signal is then fed to a phaselinear ceramic IF filter, followed by an IC limiter. It is then, in turn, processed through an FM discriminator. The output of the FM discriminator is fed to a buffer amplifier which then drives the demodulator.
selectively to the desired source. TAPE SIGNALS With the exception of tape input, all high-level inputs are fed directly to the selector switch. Tape input is routed through the front panel dubbing IN jack to a section of the TAPE MONITOR switch. The dubbing IN jack is a three-conductor stereo jack which has two built-in switches, one for each channel. Normally, these switches are closed, allowing the tape input signals from the TAPE IN jack on the rear panel to be fed to the TAPE MONITOR switch.
