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.

Onkyo TA-RW66


The TA-RW66 is a highly versatile double cassette deck with auto reverse, automatic tape selection and Onkyo's superbly engineered soft touch mechanism. Along with these single deck features the system offers a choice of dubbing at regular or high speed. So wheter you're recording from a broadcast, compact disc or other source, this double cassette system makes your recording foolproof and easy.

Two cassette transport and auto reverse.
The TA-RW66 is two cassette deck in one unit that allows you to enjoy all the recording and playback features of a single stereo cassette tape deck with the added convenience of a second tape transport system that makes dubbing and other tape editing tasks a breeze. Tape-1 has both recording and playback capabilities. Tape-2 is for playback only with auto reverse so the listener can set  the controls for playback of one side both sides of a tape

High and Normall Speed Dubbing
To save time, the TA-RW66 has a high speed dubbing function that cuts waiting time in half. When copying both sides of a C-60 cassette, for example, only 30 minutes is needed. A dubbing selection switch allows you to choose between normal or high sped dubbing.

Unitized Die-Cast Head Mount
Many audiophiles feel auto-reverse decks are inferior to uni-directional decks because of the small difference in sound quality between the forward and rverse tape transport directions. Whit the TA-RW66, however, this is no longer a problem. Onkyo guarantees virtually identical frequency response and other specifications in both directions by mounting the rec/pb and erase heads on a precision-made die-cast block with dual azimuth adjustment.

Automatic Tape Selection
With the automatic tape selection ystem in Cassette 2, the deck itself automatically detects the type of tape inserted and adjust the bias current accordingly. So guesswork and the chance of forgetting to adjust the bias setting and spoiling your recording are eliminated. Of course, Cassette 1 has  its own tape selector to allow dubbing of two different types of tape.
