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.

Toshiba PC-3060 cassette deck


Stereo cassette deck with Dolby B
The beginning of the range of Toshiba front-loaders and endowed with featuress which demonstrate very through thinking.
At its very popular price, the PC-3060 has exceptionally low wow-and-flutter. It has an auto-stop mechanism to protect both deck and tape from strain, a timer switch setting for automatically recording programmes while you are away.
The PC-3060 gives you full control of bias and equalization settings, so the best combination for all the latest high performance tapes can always be found - whether normal, chromium dioxide or ferrichrome.
The smooth and positive pianotype control levers are a joy to use and are indicative of the PC-3060's precise engineering. Cue/review plus auto-play facilities are combined on the play/rewind and fast forward controls. Stop and Eject functions are combined, so that the cassette is only ejected (and the compartment cover opened) after tape transport has stopped.
