I've misplaced the manual to an AIWA NSX-5777 music centre.

What is the purpose of the Line Out sockets, is Line Out an
unamplified signal as opposed to the various speaker outputs which I
assume are amplified.




Line Out is a signal at line level which is *unaffected* by the amplifier's
Tone, Volume, Balance &c. controls and is used to feed a 'Slave Amplifier'
or active subwoofer as in page 6 of this .pdf manual for the currently
available Acoustic Solutions SP101 amplifier:


So the line out could actually go to some battery operated computer
type speakers.

There's a couple of other sockets I'm not too sure about;

below is a link to an image of the sockets,

What are the MD sockets for.

Mini Disc, maybe? If they are, then they are standard Line In
connections.
