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.

Luxman T-12 tuner

The Accutouch system seizes the exact tuning point including that at the RF stage and offers total, stable reception even against ambient fluctuation.
In this system, the accurate center tuning point is detected by means of a control voltage at the quartz circuit, which activates a mechanical lock function. As the tuning knob is gradually turned to locate the FM station, a positive lock occurs for about 1 second at the exact tune-in point inclusive of the RF stage.
Generally speaking, a quartz-locked FM tuner has the advantage of offering very stable reception against ambient fluctuation such as temperature, etc. But this system functions to control only the local oscillator, and does not extend to the RF stage. Moreover, depending onn the method of tuning operation, tuning error is triggered at a max. 100 kHz, so that various characteristics are deteriorated (such as distortion, separation, rejection etc.) in other words, only our "Accutouch" makes it possible to make the most of the quartz lock system to prevent possible tuning error. When the power is turned off with the Quartz Lock on, the proper receiving condition is automatically obtained the next time power is turned on.

IF Bandwidth Selector
If the IF stage a 2-step bandwidth selectoris provided. In the "wide" position, 2 pairs of LC block filter are combined providing exceptionally good phase characteristics, and realizing ultra low distortion. Conversely in the "narrow" position a combination of block and ceramic ffilters achieves high selectivity.
The IF filters adopted here have excellent group-delay characteristics, however, to make the ultra low distortion tuner perfect, even small deviation of the components used should be controlled. Therefore to solve this, a phase compensation circuit is provided in the IF stage, and the units are checked one by one to realize excellent distortion characteristics.

Sonic Excellence
In the front end an exclusive FM 5-gang variable capacitor is used to make the most of the various superb characteristics in the IF  and following stages. Also high selectivity in each RF amp circuit ensures satisfactory interference rejection. In the detector circuit, a new quadrature IC and a special detector transformer are adopted to realize a low-distortion characteristic through wide bandwidth and high Signal-to-Noise ratio. Distortion at the detector stage has been suppressed down to a level below that of most test equipment. Thus no more than 0,02% distortion is realized for a deviation of ±50 kHz, or no more than 0,05% even through ±100 kHz.
A pilot signal cancellor circuit is arranged in the multiplex stage to improve frequency response and phase characteristics.
