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.

QUAD 303 (1969)

The Quad 303 power amplifier is intended for normal domestic use with loudspeakers of moderate efficiency, but is also used by broadcasting and recording studios, groups and discotheques world wide, who appreciate its excellent performance and dependability.

The outstanding performance of the Quad 303 is largely due to the unique output circuit developed by Quad.

The Quad 303 is normally used with the Quad control unit, but can readily accommodate other signal sources. Since it has no controls it can be mounted out of sight in a well ventilated cabinet.

The amplifier won a Council of Industrial Design Award in 1969

The circuit employs symmetrical triples, greatly reducing distortion and rendering the quiescent current independent of output transistor temperature.

This development enables the designers to reduce distortion to any desired degree without sacrificing stability, and to maintain this excellence under all dynamic conditions.

To put this in perspective, the lowest theoretical distortion present on the very best tape and disc will still be some hundred times greater than that of the Quad 303.

Such a level is, of course, completaly inaudible no matter how refined the test.

The use of triples, permits simple and effective control of the output current and since the voltage is also controlled, the output transistors are completely protected and must always operate within their ratings with the obvious advantages of greatly improved reliability under all conditions, without the use of elaborate and expensive circuitry.

The amplifier cannot be upset even when overdriven by an asymmetrical signal or by shorting or disconnecting the loudspeakers.

The chassis and covers of the Quad equipment are in die cast aluminium and sheet steel finished in stove-enamelled

metallic beige and brown with off-white and marigold push buttons and control panels. The control unit, top left, and

the tuner, lower left, can be positioned together or separately. The amplifier, above, has no controls, and can

therefore be housed out of sight in a cabinet or cupboard, heat dissipation being greatly assisted by the aluminium

fins at the rear.
