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.

PSB Targa loudspeakers

PSB Speakers
The latest group of PSB Speakers to enter the market is one impressive family: Targa, Avante, Passif I and Passif II adapt some of the most innovative design features in the industry. All four models of this matched family are two-way systems, reducing the problems associated with a second cross-over in the critical midrange, where the ear hears most accurately. PSB's  tweeters and long-throw woofers are matched in critically tuned and damped enclosures, keeping distortion to a minimum.
Targa
If your room and budget are relatively small, the Targa is the speaker for you. Engineered for modest systems, the Targa will deliver the PSB family sound in a smaller environment. Because of the smaller dome tweeter size, no phase plug is required in the Targa (but essential in the 1" dome). You will notice good bass response and smooth, natural highs, thanks to PSB's exclusive low diffraction baffle.
Even though the Targa's price is amall, it's sound and quality are not compromised.
