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.

Harman/Kardon hk680i receiver

The hk680i, with 60 watts per channel, is the first Harman Kardon receiver ever with the advanced technology of digital quartz-locked tuning. That means the tuner section automatically locks into the exact dead center of the broadcast signal every time. And stays there drift-free.

The 680i also features a memory system that allows you to store up to 6 AM and 6 FM stations, and recall them at the touch of a button. And tuning couldn't be easier. You can tune up or down manually by pressing one of the tuning buttons, or you can let the receiver scan automatically for you.

Each time the scanner reaches a station, it will stop and allow the station to play for several seconds. It will continue scanning and playing until you find the station you want and defeat the scanning system.

In addition, the 680i gives you other convenience features. Like tape copy and tape monitoring capabilities for two decks. Tone defeat. Subsonic and high filters. Muting defeat and more.

The hk680i. It brings the accuracy of digital technology to an affordable receiver.
