well even when a 3O0Vo modulated input signal is
applied to the IC. S/N ratio and distortion factor
have also been improved by the incorporation
of a NFB circuit in the decoder amplifier. Distor-
tion has also been improved in the case of MONO
signals by connecting together the output circuits
of the L and R channels, and thus cancelling the
out-of-phase distortion components contained in
the L and R channel audio signals.
