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.

Audio Note P2 SE power amplifier


The P2 SE is a pure Class A, single-ended amplifier. Its development is the result of Audio Notes ongoing research to find ways to make better audio products. A side from the six key features on which the design is based, atechnique called "Comparison by Contrast" is used to ensure that the product is developed with the most important specification of sound quality as the overriding factor.
The P2 SE design is derived from the Audi Note 's key technological features originally embraced by the On Gaku and kegon amplifiers.
These features include:
Pure Class A operation
Zero negative feedback
Single-ended output stage
Valve rectification
Directly heated, triode output stage.

Pure Single-ended operation.
The P2 SE is a single ended amplifier. This means that the complete music wave form reproduced by the amplifier is preserved as one "whole". Consequently, a true single-ended amplifier must be pure class A and operates in a coherent and natural way.
This produces significant sonic advantage compared to convetional push-pull amplifers since push-pull amplifers demand that a new "mirror" image wave form be created for the topology to work. Creating this perfect mirror image of the original wave form is rather a tall order and far from the only problem associated with push-pull amplifiers.

The stage uses one 6SL7 dual triode per channel. These tubes are connected in a SRPP method and this stage generates most of the required gain.
Since the amplifier is single-ended, no complex phase splitting circuitry is required and the signal from the 6SL7 tubes can be coupled to the output stage. Here, Audio Note aluminium foil, paper in oil capacitors are used instead of the inferior quality film types used so commonly in the audio industry.
The final output trasformers (one of the most critical components in a vacum tube amplifer) are of custom Audio Note design and provide previously unavailable performance characteristics. These transformers use massive cores to reduce saturation effects. This allows the P2 SE to produce impressively extended and controlled bass performance.

Specifications:
Maximum Output:  18 Watts RMS per channel into 4 or 8 Ω loads
Tube Compliment:  4 x 6L6 / 5881;  2 x 6SL7
Input Impedance:  100 k Ω

Technics SB-T40 loudspeakers


Flatter Your Ears
But it takes more than an inventive new enclosure to build a speaker for the future - after all, it's what's inside the box which ultimately determines what comes out. And that's where Technics engineers really concentrated their efforts. The result is the honeycomb disc driver.

Why Flat is Better
The tradiional speaker driver is shaped like a cone - and it sufers from an inherent form of distortion called the cavity effect. All cone drivers are prone to the cavity effect, which results from sound waves colliding with each other as they emanate from the diaphragm surface. The resulting standing wave distortion caauses peaks and dips in the frequency response and degrades sound quality. The only way to defeat the cavity effect is to eliminate the cavity - that is, to construct a flat diaphragm. Which brings us to the Technics honeycombdisc. Not only is it flat but it is also axially symmetric - it is equally rigid at all points and in all directions. And it featurs nodal drive, which substantially eliminates partial vibrations and assures a wide range of pistonic diaphragm motion.
The Technics honeycomb features an ideal combination of rigidity and flexibility. It is fast enough to respond to delicate nuances in the high range, yet strong enough to avoid partial vibration.
Plus, the flat driver means inherent phase linearity, since all the acoustic centers are aligned in the same plane. Once, we had to stagger the drivers to achieve phase linearity. But with today's honeycomb disc technology, the drivers can be mounted on the same baffle without sacrificing linearity.

Theory into Praactice- Honeycomb Drivers
Woofer
The SB-T40 features a 22 cm (9"woofer} low frequency driver. The woofer are powered by large magnets with high output and use voice coil designed for linear response.
A carefully formulated polyamide adhesive secures the voice coil and the polyimide film bobbin is fiber reinforced - together, they can withstand extreme temperatures of 250°C. the result is excellent power handling characteristics.
Midrange
Efficiency and smooth response -  thes are the desired traits of a midrange driver. Technics uses the same heat-resistant materials that the woofer features in the midrange, to improve power handling. The cloth edge construction ensures wide, smooth response, while narrow magnetic gaps in the voice coil yield highly efficient operation.
Tweeter
If a tweeter can maintain response all the way up to 35 kHz, you can believe that high range response is outstanding. Technics uses a magnetic fluid in the circuit gap and a precision acoustic equalizer to achieve this remarkable upper frequency limit - thay also contribute to good heat dispersion, high power handling, and a stable stereo image not limited by "beaming".

Thermal Relay Protection
It's not easy to overload the SB-T40 - but protection is essential, particulrly if the amp or source material creates or exhibits distortion. Under these adverse conditions, overheating could conceivably damage the speaker. So,Technics included a thermal relay protection circuit, which cuts power at the input terminals if an abnormal temperature rise does occur. It is easily resettable using a front panel button, and an LED illuminates to confirm the protection circuit;s operation.

Computer designed high density particle board enclosure

Technics SB-T20 speakers


There are two major categories of speaker design - bookshelf speakers and floor standing speakers. Floor standing models generally provide deeper bass, because the floor itself augmentes the output of the driver. In addition, the increased volume of the speaker box means more air in the enclosure and, consequently, greater compliance. Compliance is an expression of the amount of energy required to move the woofer; in floor standing models, it is quite high and more bass energy is produced. Floor standing speakers also tend to improve high frequency response, because they are usually designed with the tweeter at eye level. This localized tweeter placement, while nothing more than a basic construction technique, dramatically improves the frequency balance in the high range.
If all these advantages are inherent in floor standing speakers, why do speaker manufacturers bother to build bookshelf models? Mostly, for practical reasons - size, space, price and convenience are the most important consideratiions. Bookshelf speakers, as the name implies, can be placed on a shelf. They can also be placed on the floor of course, but for quality reproduction, the added expense of a speaker stand is normally necessary. Bookshelf spaekers are usually smaller than the floor standing variety, less expensive, and much easier to handle. In short, for many listeners, the sonic advantages of floor standing speakers are not worth the added hassle and inconvenience.

The new technics SB-T20 speakers offer the best of both worlds. They are floor standing speakers, but in a sleek, trimmed down package. And their prices are in line with equivalent bookshelf models. With the additional enclosure volume and ear-level high frequency drivers, they deliver sound which is on a par with fine floor standing models. Yet, their futuristic, pillar-like design takes up less space in your listening room or your dance floor. Plus, they are lightweight and easily movable. Technics reputation for innovative design can only be enhanced by our new SB-T20 bass reflex speakers.

PSB Targa loudspeakers

PSB Speakers
The latest group of PSB Speakers to enter the market is one impressive family: Targa, Avante, Passif I and Passif II adapt some of the most innovative design features in the industry. All four models of this matched family are two-way systems, reducing the problems associated with a second cross-over in the critical midrange, where the ear hears most accurately. PSB's  tweeters and long-throw woofers are matched in critically tuned and damped enclosures, keeping distortion to a minimum.
Targa
If your room and budget are relatively small, the Targa is the speaker for you. Engineered for modest systems, the Targa will deliver the PSB family sound in a smaller environment. Because of the smaller dome tweeter size, no phase plug is required in the Targa (but essential in the 1" dome). You will notice good bass response and smooth, natural highs, thanks to PSB's exclusive low diffraction baffle.
Even though the Targa's price is amall, it's sound and quality are not compromised.
