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.

Ruark Crusader II

More or less complete re-vamp of the original floor-standing Crusader, with a new tweeter and LE driver. Beautifully veneered ported (reflex) cabinet is heavily braced against panel resonances. The three drivers integrate nicely and the loudspeaker is relatively insensitive to room position. Particularly convincing in reproducing the human voice, with the bass not overly extended yet fast and facile. Admirable imaging and considerable depth of perspective.
