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.

Royd Minstrel


The Minstrel fulfils that essential requirement - it allows you to enjoy your music to the full. Available in a stylish range of finishes, The Minstrel provides high quality listening at a realistic price.
The Minstrel is a versatile loudspeaker which may b eused on shelves, wall mounted or floorstanding, for which a base complete with spikes is available.
Designed for use with a very wide range of amplification, it is equally at home with a digital or analogue source.

The Minstrel is also unfussy as to its placement in the listening room and is therefore the ideal answer to accoustically difficult locations.
The new side ported reflex design allows for the sdjustment of bass response by choosing to have the ports face each other or a side wall.
The Minstrel benefits from Royd's ongoing research and development program and builds on the technical advances incorporated  in the acclaimed Royd Abbot. In addition to the use of mass damping and resistive bracing.

The Minstrel includes an innovative diaphragm construction for the bass unit, which has been developed with the use of the latest techniques of computer impulse analysis. This has resulted in the speaker capturing the full range and power of bass in recorded music without sacrificing any of the clarity and detail contained in the mid range.
These technical advances are clearly audible in the quality of the sound production of The Minstrel, making it an excellent choice for all high fidelity home entertainment systems.
