Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.
This manual is immaculate in it's accuracy. Everything is written very clearly and easy to understand. Written by a professional who wants to convey a clear and easy to understand message!!

Digital filter
Word sync
Press to turn the filter on and off. The indicator lights when the filter is on.
Press WORD SYNC to show current Word sync status. Further presses change Word sync status. < Make a connection to the WORD SYNC terminal before selecting W_OUT or WORD IN.
ON Upconverts the signal up to 8x before D/A conversion. This setting produces a crisp sound with a solid feel. OFF Does not upconvert the signal. This setting produces a rich and natural sound.
W_OUT
The D-03 generates the master clock. The indicator lights. For details on how to change the frequency of the output word clock, see the instructions on page 13.
WORD IN
The D-03 now operates according to the externally input clock. The WORD SYNC OUT terminal outputs the clock signal input to the WORD SYNC IN terminal. Selecting WORD IN causes the indicator to blink while the unit searches for an external clock signal. The indicator stops blinking when the unit detects and locks to the external clock signal. The D-03 is now ready for playback synced to the external clock signal. < The D-03 can handle clock signals up to 196 kHz and switches automatically to accommodate signal input. < The word clock input frequency range is set to a narrow precision range of ±5 ppm to optimize use of the G-0s and other high-precision clocks. This may prevent synchronization to devices whose output precision is outside this range.
WORD OFF
Word sync is not used. The indicator is not on.
