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.

Musical Fidelity X-AS100 power amp


Musical Fidelity X-AS100 Power Amplifier.

Used properly and carefully, it should give you many years of outstanding musical reproduction.

Aesthetically and electronically the X-AS100 matches perfectly with the X-P100 Preamplifier, X-RAY CD player and X-PLORA tuner. Together, they form one of the finest hi-fi systems available.

The X-AS100 has been designed to be switched on continuously. The PSU should be positioned as far away from the X-AS100 as possible. We suggest that the PSU is placed on the floor near the mains outlet.

Dust regularly with a soft duster or soft brush but be careful when using cleaning or polishing agents - they may harm the surface finish

 

Connections

The X-AS100 is a stereo amplifier which can if required be mono for use in passive bi-amping systems.

The X-AS100 can be used with a preamplifier or any line level source which has a volume control. We highly recommend the matching X-P100 or Nu-Vista Preamps available from Musical Fidelity as an excellent choice.
