ANNOUNCING 'THE FIRST RECEIVER IN THE WORLD WITH AN FM/AM DIGITAL SYNTHESIZER.THE TOSHIBA 7150. Toshiba introduces the first receiver in the world with FM/ AM frequency-synthesized digital tuning. Until now, this technology was available only in the most costly separate FM tuners. Now it's incorporated into the 7150, an extraordinarily high-powered, low distortion, state-of-the-art receiver. With a suggested retail price of only $995.00. The 7150's tuner employs a quartz crystal oscillator, which automatically locks into the center of any station's frequency- as precisely as the station's own transmitter. Drift is eliminated. So is the inaccuracy of hand-setting a conventional center-tuning meter. Stations are selected merely by pushing the auto-scan button, which scans the full range of the FM or AM hand, then automatically reverses. Twelve stations, six FM and six AM, can be preselected and locked into the receiver's memory for instant push-button recall. Bright green LED numerals instantly display all frequencies as they are tuned, expect to find in a top-of-the-line receiver. The specs are, simply, spectacular. The 7150 delivers a minimum of 150 watts per channel into 8 ohms, 20 to 20,000 Hz, with no more than 0.05% THD. WE'VE ELIMINATED THE MOST PRIMITIVE ELEMENT OF FM/AM TUNING.THE HAND. --- Toshiba’s new digital read-out. Conventional center-tuning meter. Of course, the frequency-synthesized tuner would be of little use if the rest of the receiver didn't measure up. It does. The 7150 also features separate transformers for class A and class B amplifier sections. Separate left and right power sup plies, with a toroidal transformer. Plus a built-in FM Dolby" circuit, with an air-check switch for meter calibration. The 7150 also has LED signal level indicators. Left and right power meters. Three-way speaker selection. And much more: every important feature you would Frequency response, sep- .ration and all the rest of the figures are just as impressive. The 7150 looks spectacular, too. Speaker selection, balance, bass, treble, and high and low filter controls are all hidden behind the dashpot loaded cover. This gives the 7150 a sleek, streamlined appearance that sets it apart from all other receivers. Altogether, the Toshiba 7150 adds up to the most advanced electronic design. So it produces the kind of clear, open sound that will satisfy the most demanding audio purists. Which is exactly what you'd expect from Toshiba, a company that demands of itself the most exacting standards for technology and innovation.
