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.

Klipsch Quartet

 Destined to become yet another classic bearing the Klipsch name, the new Klipsch Quartet embodies time-tested design principles and dawing technology to give you a speaker system of the highest sonic integrity.
The Quartet's new hybrid tractrix midrange horn is uncanny in its ability to deliver the countless inner details of complex musical pasages. Designed with computer-modeling techniques, the Quartet woofer is voice-coil-vented to increase power handling and bass output while decreasing distortion.
The classically-styled cabinet of the Quartet is hand-finished in your choice of genuine wood veneers to give you a system as beautiful as the music it reproduces. The Quartet reflects your good taste in music and the art. Of its reproduction.
The Quartet also takes advantage of the Tractrix midrange horn and recreates music with stunning clarity. Features include:
A high frequency horn/driver assembly - provides sparkling detail to your favorite music.
The new Tractrix midrange horn - uncanny in its ability to isolate and deliver  the countless inner details of complex musical passages.
The 12" passive radiator and 10" active woofer - this rear-mounted passive radiator, coupled with a new vented voice-coil woofer, helps create exceptionally clean, tight bass response.
 A - This Klipsch-designed high frequency horn/driver assembly assists the Quartet in providing sparkling detail to your music. The stereo image is so clear and sharply focused, you'll feel as if you can touch the music while it is touching you.
B -  A tractrix hybrid design, the midrange horn of the Quartet delivers exceptionally smooth polar coverage in both horizontal and vertical planes to give you a stereo image now of greater width, depth, and stability. This unique horn is uncanny in its ability to isolare and deliver the countless inner details of the most complex musical passages.
C - The Quartet's powerful, well-extended bass is due in part to this rear-mounted sub-bass radiator. Measuring 12" (305 mm) in diameter, the sub-bass radiator operates on acoustic pressure generated by the woofer for greater bass output and extension.
D - using computer-modeling techniques , Klipsch engineers developed a new voice-coil-vented woofer for exceptionally clean, tight bass, and unparalleled reliability. The new woofer also provides higher output and, with the new sub-bass radiator, lowers distortion.
E - The Quartet's cabinet provides immediate evidence of construction quality. This cabinet is meticulously crafted from your choice of genuine wood veneers. Each pair is matched for color and grain structure of the wood. One tiny flaw and the entire pair is destroyed.
F - Yet another example of efficient design principles at Klipsch, the input panel of the Quartet is built in conjunction with the crossover network of the system. Thus, incoming electrical information is immediately sent to the proper driver without undue and unnecessary wiring.
G - A built-in riser base lifts the Quartet to the proper height for the optimum stereo effect, yet keeps the system coupled to the floor for maximum bass response.
