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.

Sony TC-270 reel-to-reel

The Sony Stereo Tape-recorder TC-270 is a complete stereo tape recorder. This compact, powerful stereo music system consists of an amplifier utilizing Sony silicon transistors, precision tape deck and high performance speaker systems.
The tape transport mechanism, including vibration-free motor, is designed to provide flutter-free, stable tape drive either in vertical or horizontal operation.tape modulation distortion noise is remarkably reduced by the scrape filter.
Other features are; automatic shut-off device, retractomatic pinch roller for easy tape threading, the professional recording techniques of Sound-to-Sound, built-in reel locks and many more.
