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.

Sonab C500

 We were anxious to maintains the quality of our Sonab sound. It required a great deal of research and effort to do  this.  The result  is here, the Sonab C500 HiFi cassette deck.
The new Sonab C500 is constructed in such a way as to make it as simple as possible to handle, to play and above all to record.
 Recording as you may know is the function that requires knowledge as well as facilities. To help you as much as possible we have equipped the Sonab C500 with Dolby B-System noise reduction. Tape selector for standard and chrome tapes, which changes both bias, and equalisataion, quasipeak value recording level meters, mixing facilities between left and right channels plus centre microphone, memory rewind and built in amplifier for headphones, which enables you to monitor the recording at a level acceptable to you.
