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.

Thiel CS2.3 loudspeakers

 

The Thiel CS2.3 reflects our highest standards for sonic reproduction, regardless of price or class.

 

The 3-way CS2.3 incorporates many of the advanced driver, enclosure, and crossover design principles used in larger and more expensive Thiel models, but does so at a lower price and in a moderately sized cabinet. The CS2.3 employs a 1-inch metal dome tweeter coaxially mounted with a 3.5-inch midrange driver, and an 8-inch metal diaphragm woofer, with a passive radiator. Thiel’s unique  Coherent Source design provides greater realism The CS2.3’s outstanding performance is achieved in part by Thiel’s Coherent Source design technology which preserves the music’s time and phase information for much greater realism. Phase correct crossover design and time correct driver mounting provide natural three-dimensional imaging and greater clarity. The CS2.3’s high performance also results from our extremely thorough engineering, rugged construction, and use of unusually high quality components.

 

Features

A 3-inch thick baffle, 1-inch thick cabinet walls, and internal bracing greatly increase cabinet stiffness. By reducing unwanted vibration, both clarity and imaging performance are improved.

The baffle’s rounded edges contribute to very open sound by significantly reducing edge diffraction.

Thiel-designed and built drivers incorporate several innovative design techniques to reduce diaphragm resonances, increase output levels, and lower distortion.
