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!!
Great site, I always find all the manuals I need and i can't find anywhere else. PDF for the Sony PCM 3348 is complete and scan is good quality. Thank you!

Note: 1 through 6 below are referenced to Channel 1. The other 3 Channels are identical. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. LINE INPUT 1/4" (6.3mm) jack for a mono signal line level input CHANNEL VOLUME CONTROL Adjusts the channel output level TREBLE CONTROL Adjusts the amount of treble in the signal with cut/boost range of -/+15 dB BASS CONTROL Adjusts the amount of bass in the signal with cut/boost range of -/+ 15 dB MIC INPUT Balanced XLR input jack [Pin 1 = Ground, Pin 2 = Hot (+), Pin 3 Cold (-)]. ECHO LEVEL CONTROL Controls the amount of echo/reverb in the channel signal MASTER VOLUME CONTROL Adjusts the level of the master signal. If the Send/Return effects loop is connected to an external effects device, that unit's level controls will determine the final volume [see also RETURN JACK (15) below] POWER SWITCH Turns the unit ON or OFF. Always turn level controls down before turning on the unit. POWER ON LED INDICATOR Indicates when the amplifier is ON. CD/ TAPE VOLUME CONTROL Adjusts the level of the signal input to the stereo CD/TAPE RCA jacks (17) in the output master signal. ECHO VOLUME CONTROL Adjusts the level of the digital echo effects volume in the output master signal. DEPTH CONTROL Adjusts the amount of depth in the echo signal. Turning this control clockwise changes the echo/reverb effect in a manner similar to increasing the size of a room in which you are getting natural echo/reverb. Experiment to find desired effect. REPEAT CONTROL Adjusts the length and number of repeats in the echo signal. At "0" you will get a single echo with depth determined by the setting of the Depth control (12). As you adjust the control clockwise toward "10", you will get an increasing number of repeats for a longer time and also the interval between repeats will widen. Experiment to find desired effect.
