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.

Nakamichi SR-3E

 Stasis Amplification
Audiophiles who hear the SR-3E are amazed at its effortlessly transparent sound. Music has more detail, more impact, more realism - especially when reproduced on "difficult" top-quality speakers. The reason is our "Stasis" power amplifier - the same concept used in the PA-7 and PA-5 Power Amplifiers.
STASIS is a radically different and superior design in which two amplifiers drive the speaker; a high-quality low-power amplifier and a "Current-Mirror Bootstrap" to supply muscle. The low-power amplifier can be designed for virtually perfect performance, "global" feedback isn't needed as in ordinary power amps. Removing the overall  feedback ensures uniform output impedance and inherent stability, and, since the amplifier is stable, there's no need to isolate it from the speaker with a coil as is usually done. This permits the amplifier to control the speaker more preciselly and realize its full potential. The current bootstrap provides tremendous peak-current reserves - up to 25 ampers into low-impedance loads.
