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.

Harman/Kardon hk670 receiver

 

Twin Powered DC coupled Ultrawideband AM/FM Stereo Receiver

 

Harman kardon engineering has one goal; to reproduce music in the home with uncompromising accuracy. Modern recordings rival the tonal balance, clarity and detail of the concert hall. A superior component must reproduce these characteristics faithfully.

It must deliver all the music.

The hk670 receiver is one of a new series from Harman Kardon designed, built, and tested with new understandings that go far beyond conventional ideas about distortion and the factors that make one component sound better than others. They are the most musically accurate receivers ever devised.

60 watts per channel

Ultrawideband design

Excellent pahse linearity

Superb transient response

Twin powered

Electronic circuit protection

DC coupled, low feedback power amplifier
