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.

Tandberg TR-1040 receiver

The FM Receiver

The FM receiver has MOSFET transistors giving good reception for weak and strong stations. Extra linear phase response and high selectivity with 4-pole ceramic filters. A good performance is obtained from the integrated IF amplifier and detector. The FM stereo decoder has integrated circuits that include a phase-locked-loop oscillator giving good channel separation over the complete frequency range. The stereo decoder has automatic or manual change-over between mono and stereo. Active filters remove the stereo systems pilot tone and auxiliary carrier wave. Precise tuning is easy with the two large tuning meters, a big advantage, especially with stereo transmissions. The FM receiver is equipped with a muting circuit that removes inter-station noise.

 

Power amplifier

The amplifier has been designed to handle extremely heavy loads. Automatic protection circuits keep watch over it constantly. tR-1040 has a direct coupled, short-circuit proof output stage. Complementary output transistors give very low distortion. An electronic controlled relay protects the loudspeakers from accidental d.c. damage. Automatic thermal protection disconnects the amplifiers if they are overheated (from bad ventilation) and connects them again immediately the temperature has fallen.

 

Pre-amplifier

The pre-amplifier is designed for a transcription unit or record player with a magnetic pick-up. All the inputs are adjustable. Three effective filters (1 Low and 2 High) attenuate disturbing noise from program sources. An extra refinement is the separate bass and treble controls for each channel which permits equalization for bass and treble differences resulting from asymmetrical positioning of loudspeakers.
