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 KD-95 cassette tape deck

The best of JVC's new lineup of high-performance cassette decks, the KD-95 features nearly all the JVC exclusives introduced on preceding pages. Its electronics and mechanism are truly sophisticated and provide the widest dynamic range, lowest distortion and least noise yet achieved in a stereo cassette configuration. Its outstanding specifications are ample evidence of a JVC engineering triumph.

 

Mechanical Accuracy

The JVC KD-95 employs two motors - a precision frequency-generator (FG) servomotor for capstan drive and a DC motor for reel drive, all operations are undertaken electronically by the JVC developed TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) IC which activates three electromagnetic plungers; a light touch of any control button allows you to move from one mode to another without having to go through Stop. Also, the deck's large flywheel - 80 mm in diameter - is coupled to the capstan to help reduce wow and flutter. And finally, a professional touch has been added to the KD-95; its head assembly has screws which allow the user to adjust the head azimuth, height and tilt.

 


Sophisticated Electronics

We used the best of JVC electronics technology in designing our top-of-the-line KD-95. first, its recording amp is formed of the 2-stage direct-coupled NPN configuration featuring high linearity. Second, its equalized circuit is of the DC feedback type for excellent transient characteristics and unmuddiet lows. Third, convenient Recording Equalizer and 400 Hz Signal Oscillator circuits are included.

 


Recording Conveniences

Inn JVC's "Real Time" pause mechanism, the heads are in contact with the tape even in the pause mode. The Timer Standby facility inside the KD-95 permits repeated, interrupted record and play - a feature rarely found on cassette decks. Also offered are two recording circuits, one for Mic/DIN input and the other for Line input, which allow you to mix microphone sounds with other sources. Plus a pair of rack-mounting brackets, which is a standard accessory in every KD-95.
