About Tape Select Edit
By using this feature, you can record an
entire CD without any tracks being cut in
the middle and leaving as little blank tape
as possible.
The CD player divides the tracks between
sides A and B without changing their order.
Then it selects and displays the optimum
tape length for recording that CD.

About the Surround Effect
This special effect creates a feeling of
actually being at a concert hall or theater by
adding the reverberations of sounds
reflecting off of the walls of a hall to the
audio component travelling directly from
the instrument, etc., to the listener.

(for MHC-C9EX only)
About the Electrostatic Tweeter
This speaker has an extremely light
diaphragm inside, and uses electrostatic
force to drive it.
Because the diaphragm vibrates with a very
small amount of force, you can faithfully
reproduce the fine audio nuances of
instruments and vocals.
In addition, you can enjoy natural sound
with little distortion because the entire
surface vibrates as a unit.
About the Motional Feedback (MFB)
Woofer
This feature faithfully reproduces the
original sound by comparing the actual
speaker vibrations with the signal being
input to the amplifier and boosting the
sound where necessary.

distortion and power worthy of speakers i
four times larger.
Therefore, you can enjoy a broad range of |
music and full bass reproduction without j
