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.

Kenwood engineers have again advanced the art of cassette deck design with the remerkable KX-2060, a superbly engineered deck with performance characteristics equal to the best available today. The KX-2060 incorporates many advanced design features such as the ability to record and playback every kind of tape - including the latest high-output metal tape. A three-position tape equalization selector and a variable fine-bias adjustor using two oscillators, plus calibratable double Dolby noise reduction circuitry, ensure that every tape will perform to its limits. Moreover, the 3-head design offers important advantages both in optimum sound quality and monitoring convenience. The extraordinary electro-magnetic performance of the KX-2060 is fully complemented by mechanical excellence. A new constant tension tape transport, and Kenwood's own rugged two-belt drive system, all ensure that nothing stands in the way of the highest quality recording and playback of tapes. The KX-2060 is also very easy to operate, and features electronic push button controls and advanced fluorescent peak level meters. Its carefully laid out front panel is designed to match equivalent Kenwood amplifiers and tuners.
