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.

Pioneer SX-990 Receiver


AM/FM Multiplex Stereo Receiver
 Never has any receiver combined such exceptional high performance with so many audiorefinemental a full 100W at 8 ohms over a frequency response from 10 to a fantastic 100,000 Hz Advanced solid state circuitry with Field Effect Transistor and Integrated Circuits and a 4-gang variable capacitor - for significantly superior sensitivity and limiting. Two tuning meters, an unusually wide range of inputs and outputs, precise tone controls and a host of important innovations. Meticulously engineered. Stunningly styled. Truly one of the finest audio components ever created.
Features
High-performance FM Tuner
An FET (Field-Effect Transistor) is used in the radio-frequency amplifier to attain a high sensitivity and selectivity. Further, four ICs (Integrated Circuits) are used for the intermediate frequency amplifier to eliminate interference and noise.

 Built-In Excellent FM MPX Circuit
This switching circuit having excellent separation and frequency response is built in for reproduction of reality music.

 Built-In Highly-Sensitive Ferrite Antenna for AM Radio Reception
The ferrite antenna provides high-sensitivity reception of AM broadcast programs.

Special Curcuitry for Versatility
The high output given by strictly selected transistors, two sets of loudspeaker terminals and phono terminals, and the provision for using a microphone make Model SX-990 suitable for the professional use as well as the family use.

A variety of Accessories
Accessories include the program lamps that indicate the program being played, the tuning meters vertically arranged for facilitating selection of an FM broadcast program, the loudspeaker selector switch, tape monitor switch, etc, all for enjoyable use of Model SX-990.
