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.

TEAC A-7030


Teac A-7030U Stereo Tape Deck.
An all-solid-state. Single-direction, 2-track record/playback7erase, plus ¼-track playback stereo tape deck. The A-7030 is designed for the demanding professional or the discriminating
audiophile. This superb deck has a capacity up to the 10½" NAB reel size and operates at 15 or 7½ ips, with performance comparable to that of the finest professional sound studio equipment.
Wow and flutter are an exceptionally low 0,05%, frequency response is 30 to 20,000 Hz and the
signal-to-noise ratio is a high 58 dB. The unique TEAC Proline ™ hyperbolic heads, a massive inertial flywheel for tape travel stabilization and the rugged, precise TEAC 3-motor transport ensure the utmost in sound quality. Operation is fast and always under your control with our symmetrical touchbutton control system and solenoid/reley actuators. The A-7030 includes

instant off-the-tape monitoring, mic-line mixing, pushbutton high speeed cueing and automatic rewind and shut-off. Options such as a full remote control and floor-standing wooden console make it even more versatile.
