Five-band equalizer with 5 harmonically related-control ranges

±10dB boost or cut at 60Hz, 240Hz, 1KHz, 4KHz, 16KHz.

explained.

When you look at this MCS Series. 75 Watt Receiver, you'll notice a graph-like display with tiny red lights.

That's what the graphic equalizer is. What it does is give you more control over the sound you hear than any other receiver available. Because each channel has five separate tone controls, designated by the five Hz and KHz numbers above. 60Hz is the frequency level for the bass. 240Hz for mid-bass. 1KHz for mid-range. 4KHz for mid-treble. 16KHz for treble.

And the figure ±10dB means that each of those controls has a range of plus or minus ten decibels.

All of which gives you about 300,000 tonal combinations to choose from. So you can adjust the tonal response of your stereo system to your listening environment, and adjust it more precisely than you'd be able to with any other receiver. You can even see what you're doing. LED readout shows you which frequency response you've established.

That's the kind of advanced technology that you get in the MCS Series 75 Watt Receiver. And there's more. Features like a multipath deviation meter that makes sure your FM antenna is positioned properly-for the cleanest signal. And our LED signal strength meter, that helps you tune in the strongest AM and FM signals.

If you want to hear more, listen to the sound of MCS. It says it all.
