Technics SA-404 receiver

With all the receivers to choose from,how do you make the right choice? By comparing power, performance and price. It's the only meaningful way to tell how much receiver you're getting for your money.

So compare.

As you can see, Technics gives you a lot. A lot of power and a lot of performance at a avery good price. That's because our receivers have the technology you need. Like hefty transformers and big power capacitors to punch out deep bass notes with authority. Like a dynamic headroom of 1,4 dB which means 38% extra power (above RMS) on sudden musical transients.

Our phono sections are just a s impressive. All have a very high Signal-to-Noise Ratio, which means that even quiet musical passages come through clearly.

Yet each can handle the high voltages generated by today's best records.

And when it comes to FM, all Technics rceivers include MOS FET's for high sensitivity and low noise. "Flat Group Delay" IF stages for clean signal processing. And phase-locked-loop circuitry for accurate stereo imagimg.

With the SA-404 and SA-505, you also get 10 LED peak-power indicators. And Acoustic Control that gives you more control over both the bass and treble frequencies than is possible with conventional tone controls.

Mission 70 loudspeakers

The Mission 70's innovative design results in a unique wide bandwidth system, free of unwanted resonances, distortions, frequency response anomalies, and colorations - remarkable for a loudspeaker in its size and price category.

The 70 is designed wiat an unusual cabinet construction. The drive units are mounted on Mission rigid particle baffle board while the carcass consists of a sandwich construction to distribute and dampen enclosure resonances. Carefully optimised drive units ensure the smooth bass performance essential in high quality system. The driver geometry is inverted in Mission's novel style. This combines with elegantly simple crossover networks to enhance phase coherence and produce an astonishing three - dimensional stereo stage.

Technically the frequency response is unusually smooth and well balanced. Whereas the competition has an irregular response often as poor ±5 dB the 70 measures flat to within ±2 dB. When measured off axis it exhibits no mid-band cancellations. The modulus of impedance is very smooth, remaining above 6 Ω and with minimal electrical phase angles.

The ensures that the speaker presents an easy load to amplifiers. Harmonic distortions are minimised even at low frequencies, and sensitivity high sound pressure levels even with modest amplifiers.

Cyrus Tuner mkI

The advent of digitally synthesised tuners has substantially improved the reception quality of FM broadcasts. A few problems however continue to persist in the design of most Fm tuners. The most serious of these problems we consider to be sibilance in high frequencies and poor low-frequency performance. It is common knowledge that the low-frequency performance of tuners lacks authority, control, definition, and articulation - especially when compared to the latest generation CD players.

The objectives of Cyrus Electronics have been to produce an outstanding tuner where the FM section does not suffer the nagging problem of "spitting" sibilance, and to give bass notes their rightful and necessary musical weight, tempo, and authority. The Cyrus Tuner is manufactured in a case of identical dimensions and appearance to the rest of the Cyrus range, and will suit the requirements of the perfectionist audiophile who owns either a Cyrus One or a Cyrus Two.

The design is based on microprocessor controlled digital frequency synthesised tuning,, and provides 19 FM and 9 MW preset with C-MOS memory back-up. The unit provides variable speed up/down scanning, automatic search, as well as manual tuning. Automatic FM mute is provided to eliminate irritating interstation noise. Quartz-locked tuning system is adopted for ultimate tuning accuracy and minimal frequency drift. An informative Fluorescent Tube Display electronically generates digital frequency readout, "Tuning " indication, "Stereo" reception and, when selected, preset channel number. For finest reception quality under adverse signal conditions the Cyrus Tuner has FET front-ends (dual-gate with automatic gain control on FM). The FM mixer oscillator is buffered to ensure high immunity to interference, and Ceramic filters are incorporated for high selectivity on both AM and FM wavebands. The Cyrus Tuner offers "Sliding Stereo" decoder maintaining full channel separation on strong signals, and changing gradually to mono for fullest noise suppression on weak signals. PLL decoder circuitry produces a stable audio signal with optimum channel separation, and an SISC filter cuts out interference on stereo broadcasts.

Cyrus One amplifier

The Cyrus One is based on a revolutionary circuit design philosophy, details of which are beyond the scope of this blog and in any case well guarded secrets. The design is then implemented with careful attention to circuit topology in order to minimise the number of components in the signal path and reduce their harmful effects. This 'straight-line" design is then manufactured to the very highest standards using components and materials beyond the reach of most competition. The power transistors, for example, are military grade, ultra-fast and very linear devices especially manufactured for Cyrus Electronics. The driver transistors are equally products of a British military semiconductor manufacturer. World class german produced passive components have been selected including extravagant polypropylene capacitors, polystyrene capacitors, and metal film resistors. The casing for the amplifier is precision injection moulded from a "non-magnetic", "non-electroconductive" metal substitute produced by Space Division of American General Electric.

All spurious and harmful stages, such as tone-controls and filters, headphone and loudspeaker switching, protection circuits and balance controls have been eliminated to make the amplifier a "straight-line", no compromise, state-of-the-art. Design. The quality control standards are amongst the highest in the industry where every amplifier is tested along nearly 100 parameters on the most sophisticated hewlett-packard CAD-CAM systems available. The result is an extraordinary achievement called the Cyrus One integrated amplifier, elegant in appearance, without gimmicks, and capable of producing a breathtaking and spectacular sound stage when used with quality ancillary equipment.
