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.

Lyngdorf DP-1 loudspeakers

The naked truth

The DP-1 is yet another boundary breaker from Lyngdorf. We have solved the problem of cabinet induced distortion by simply removing the cabinet!

DP-1 is an open dipolar design that radiates sound both forwards and backwards. In this way we obtain a perfect sound radiation pattern and avoid all cabinet-induced coloration of the upper bass and midrange.

Thanks to highly advanced drivers and the absence of a box the DP-1 has a remarkably airy, neutral and extremely detailed music quality. It combines pure sound as known from the very best electrostatic speakers with the power capability of dynamic speakers. The result is the very best from both worlds – a truly brilliant solution!

The stylish speaker has been designed for frequencies above 300 Hz and for cooperation with a BassDirect speaker like BW-1 or the larger W-210 from Lyngdorf. Of course it performs the best in a complete Lyngdorf system where all acoustical parameters are under full control.

 


The extraordinary drivers are specially customized for the Damping Factor-1. the ScanSpeak tweeter has a 1" textile dome which has been coated several times to achieve the exact desired combination of dynamic linearity and resonance damping. The ingenious magnet structure practically eliminates electrical phase shifts and distortion. The result is an incredibly smooth, linear, dynamic and amazingly transparent sound.

The 6,5" Seas woofer is extremely advanced; both the diaphragm and the chassis are made of magnesium. This ensures a minimum of break-up in the cone and a completely nonmagnetic chassis that concentrates the force of the magnet around the voice coil. The unit has a solid metal center plug instead of a traditional dust cap. That makes the cone lighter and faster and eliminates unwanted air pressure behind the cap. Furthermore it provides extra cooling for the voice coil which increases power handling and sonic stability at high volume levels.

The front baffle of the Damping Factor-1 is made of seven layers of MDF board glued together to shape the solid 55 mm thick profile that provides optimum acoustic properties for the drivers. It has a beautiful piano finish comprising of no less than 10 layers of lacquer, each hand polished to a deep, black, glossy shine.
