FEATURES

Unique modular turntable system

When you touch the OPEN/CLOSE key the turntable module will
smoothly slide out. Other audio components can be positioned on
top of the turntable cabinet.

Servo-controlled linear tracking tonearm

A linear tracking tonearm is designed to duplicate the movement of
the head which cuts the record master.

Compared with a pivoted tonearm, a linear tracking arm has a very
small tracking error (which means greatly reduced harmonic distorv
tion) and almost no pressure on the inside wall of the groove (which
means improved tracking ability and channel separation),

Programmed play

The HMS (Random Music Sensor), AMS (Automatic Music Sensor)
and skip function allow you to program record play as you like.
HMS: for p(aying the selections on one side of the record in a
desired sequence.

AMS: for starting record play from the desired selection.

Skip function: for skipping selections to the desired selection.

A microcomputer controls three motors

The movement of the turntable, the tonearm and the turntable
module is controlled by a microcomputer. When you press the
START/STOP key, the module will close, the turntable will rotate
and the tonearm will lower onto the record.

STEREO TURNTABLE SYSTEM

MODEL N0. PS-FL99

Fully automatic system

With the module closed, automatic record play and tonearm
up/down are operated by the "feather-touch function keys on the
front panel. The record size is automatically set by a photo-sensor
system. If no record is on the turntable, the tonearm will not des-
cend but will automatically return to the arm rest. A muting system
activates when the tonearm is lifted and deactivates after the
tonearm lowers onto a record so there is no need to turn the
amplifier volume down every time a stylus is placed on a record.

Linear torque BSL motor

Direct drive system with Sonys unique BSL (brushless and slot»
less) motor which has an extremely low noise level and whose
smoothness virtually eliminates wow and flutter, Its high torque assures
a quick start to 337, rpm after only a half revolution.

Synchronized operation with the Sony cassette decks

When the tonearm lowers onto the lead-in groove of a record, the
cassette deck stand-by mode is released and the record mode
assumed,

When play finishes. the cassette deck is automatically set first in
the record muting mode, then in the pause mode. This synchro-
nized operation is possible with Sony cassette decks equipped with
a four-pin remote control jack which is connected with the Sony
RM-65 synchro remote control unit.

Wireless remote control operation

Using the optional ST-V7/V7L system control tuner, various opera-
tions-power on/off, start/stop play, tonearm upldown-can be
remotely controlled.
