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.

Castle Isis loudspeakers

In this digital, computer age loudspeakers are often seen as poor relations of the electronics in a hi-fi or home cinema system. As electro-acoustic devices they are often, incorrectly thought of, as "old" technology - one design indistinguishable from another. You couldn't be more wrong.

 

The Castle Isis sets new performance standards for a speaker of its compact dimensions thanks to the use of castle designed and developed advanced technology drive units. Smooth high frequency detail is delivered by our 25 mm polyamide dome tweeter. Its shallow horn loading ensures good treble dispersion on and off-axis for a wide listening area.

The 130 mm mid/bass driver is built into a strudy die-cast chassis with a lightweight injection moulded plastic cone. A high temperature Kapton voice coil former is used to allow the driver to produce high levels of clean, undistorted sound. A simple crossover, employing audiophile quality components, integrates these exceptional drivers without sacrificing transparency or "slam"

The Castle Isis cabinet is pleasingly proportionated with a front-facing reflex port that suits it equally to bookshelf or stand use.
