VHS Hi-FI Stereo System/
MTS Broadcast
This VCR is equipped with the VHS Hi-Fi audio sound
system for recording and playback. The information
below gives a brief description of Hi-Fi audio and how to
record and play a tape in the Hi-Fi audio mode.
Playback with Hi-Fi Stereo Audio Sound
A stereo TV with AUDIO/VIDEO input jacks or a stereo
audio system is required for true stereo playback. To
experience the full and rich stereo sound available with
Hi-Fi recorded tapes, we recommend the connection of
this unit to a home stereo audio system.
