Mitsubishi (Diatone in Japan) has put big audio performance into a series of precise little audio components - microcomponents. Stereo components that are compact, but can hardly be called compacts. They have the same high-performance characteristics as full size components. The Micro FM tuner is using a quartz-PLL synthesizer tuning system that has absolutely no drift. The Micro Cassette Deck has a Dual Capstan Drive mechanism mounted in a precise die-cast chassis, 2 head configuration, separate Bias and EQ settings, Feather Touch Logic Control and Dolby noise reduction system. For power, the Micro power-amplifier was unbeatable at this size. The little "direct coupled" powerhouse puts out 70 watts per channel. Total harmonic distortion is only 0.01% for 30 watts per channel. The Micro Preamp is made to complement the power amplifier and faithfully conduct any signal source that goes through it. It has a built-in moving-coil head amplifier and a signal-to-noise ratio of 77dB and 0.005% THD. The final touch was to finish them with Champagne Gold faceplates. The MITSUBISHI micro 01 (DIATONE µ in Japan) cosnsists of  M-F01 tuner, M-P01 pre-amp, M-A01 power-amp and M-T01 cassette deck.
