What is stereo?




There are now two system of high fidelity, monophonic (monaural) and stereophonic. Monophonic is a system that starts from one microphone and is fed through a single high fidelity set. Stereophonic is a double system. Two separate microphones are placed at different sides of the orchestra and two different systems are used to keep the two signals or channels separated. Two separate speakers are used, placed on different sides of you room. Stereo is much like 3-D photography, two slightly different sound reach your ears giving you a new dimension in sound.

Sansui AU-7500 (1972)

Solid State Integrated Amplifier

This professional stereo component, an integrated amplifier with unusually wide power bandwidth, says a lot about the way Japan's foremost audio only specialist meets the demanding requirements of the stereo world today. A perfect power match for the TU-7500 stereo tuner, the AU-7500 represents a significant milestone in Sansui's pursuit of excelence. Not only are these two products the most advanced of any 2-channel products ever made by Sansui, they also represent the pinnacle of the company's up-to-the-minute knowledge of audio acoustics and electronics.

The AU-7500 boasts such performance characteristics as total harmonic distortion and intermodulation distortion which has been limited to below 0,1% throughout the audio spectrum and well beyond. With its super-wide power bandwidth of 5 - 40,000 Hz, you can achieve RMS power of 43 watts into 8 ohms, along with total harmonic distortion of only 0,1%. Inside the AU-7500 are a PNP-NPN-PNP heterojunction three stage direct coupled equalizer amplifier with an input capacity of no less than 300 mV RMS resulting in such a wide dynamic range. There are also low noise PNP transistor tone control circuits and a direct coupled DCL pure complementary power amplifier employing two 6,800 μF jumbo power supply capacitors. Finally this professional amplifier is blessed with a variety of convenience features, including a 4-channel adaptor switch, the ability to connect up to three tape decks, and provisions for tape-to-tape dubbing. And in terms of tonal quality, the AU-7500 quite simply has no equal.
