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.

JVC JA-S44 amplifier

 

Features:

DC Power Amplifier in ICL Construction

45 Watts per Channel, Minimum RMS, both channels driven, into 8 ohms, from 20 Hz to 20 kHz with no more than 0,02% T.H.D.

S.E.A. Stereo Graphic Equalizer

Direct Readout Twin Power Meters

JVC Triple Power Protection

Twin Power Meters

 

Convenience and musical accuracy are the key features of this medium-priced, high-performance amplifier. With the JVC S.E.A. Graphic Equalizer built in, you can reproduce every sound equally. With its DC Power Amplifier, direct readout twin power meters and dependable power supply, the JA-S44 from JVC puts you Closer to the Musical Truth for less money than you'd expect. That's realJVC value. Its matchingtuner is the JVC JT-V22

S.E.A. Stereo Graphic Equalizer

JVC's S.E.A. Graphic Equalizer is in wide use because of its truly wide versatility. A live "tone-zone" S.E.A. such as on the JA_S44, permits a total of 371,293 possble tonal combinations. It helps you eliminate peaks and dips in the frequency responses of your cartridge, speakers or room acoustics; you hear the flattest - and most accurate - response in your room at your favorite listening position.

Covering up to ±12 dB in 2 dB increments the five "tone-zone" controls have center frequencies of 40 Hz; 250 Hz; 1 kHz; 5 kHz and 15 kHz. Thus you can adjust one segment of the frequency range without affecting others - which is a capability that ordinary bass/treble control cannot duplicate. To assure low distortion and wide dynamic range, we've employed, in stead of bulky hum-picking coils, what we call a "Semiconductor Inductor (L)". For further stability and reliability we built the S.E.A. circuit around ICs.

S.E.A. recording facilty. By operating the S.E.A. REC switch on the front panel, you can equalize frequency response as you make a recording on tape decks connected to the JA-S44

DC Power Amplifier

The power amplifier on side the JA-S44 has the capability to amplify DC or zero Hz information.
