Omni-Radial
Sound Field Speaker System
New
breakthroughs in 4-channel stereo sound have created a demand for a new kind of
speaker system, and now Sansui is pround to introduce a system that takes
4-channel to its thrilling sound pinnacle. The SF-2 Omni-Radial Sound Field
Speaker System is not just another
omnidirectional speaker, but a completely new concept in sound-in-the-round,
for it employs speakers facing both upwards and downwards sound in a full 360
degrees.
This 2-way
3-speaker system produces a vibrant and reverberant 4-channel sound field, for
it has been designed to accurately reflect the very important, but often
ignored, "indirect" sound waves of music reproduction. And these
indirect waves are the vital element of the live concert hall sound field, the
authentic "live" sound effect that so many speaker systems promise
but so few deliver. With the SF-2, sound waves emanate with fine time
differences and reach out to each corner of your listening room. No longer are
these "indirect" waves overwhelmed and dissipated by the more
"direct" soundwaves, thus leading to the harsh masking effect of
sound reproduction. The SF-2 delivers greater sound reflection, in fact an
ambience effect that adds depth and liveliness to your music - and comes very
close to actually recreating the warmth and presence of the acoustically
perfect concert hall. Four-channel sound reproduction is improved, for the
unique top and bottom speaker arrangement does stereo wonders to bring out the
best in the indirect sound of the recording.
In addition,
sound diffusuion is extended in the SF-2 by the use of a new porous foam
acoustic diffuser placed behind the Kumiko fretwork grille, a device which also
helps to attain ideal dispersion of sound in the very high frequency range.
Beautifully designed and finished, the SF-2 cabinet is made of solid natural
wood and hard chipboard, specially treated to resist heat or stains. The system
is actually an expensive piece of fine furniture - and looks it. From the most respected name in stereo
Sansui.
