HiFi Magazin 18. 1985/2.


    

    Our English Synopsis

 1. Audio Culture

    (Editorial Notes)
    This is the world of extra options. It is scary to figure out how much
    money  can  be  spent  on  how many gadgets, such as turntable stands,
    record  fasteners,  speaker  stands,  special cables. In real terms do
    these auxiliary goods improve sound quality? In our opinion and scanty
    experience  yes.  As  much  as dress, jewelry, makeup can do to turn a
    homely woman to a pretty one and the latter into a beauty.

 2. Soundservice

    Space  for  those  desiring  to  inquire,  needing  advice, wishing to
    comment or argue or even to advertize.

 3. Well Cut Records

    In the complicated process of record manufacturing, disc cutting takes
    a  central  place.  To  illustrate  it,  we  are pleased to publish an
    article written by a cutting engineer. The author attempts to focus on
    those  recording faults which could jeopardize succesfull disc cutting
    as  well  as on problems relating to the cutting that can be perceived
    during manufacturing and on the finished product.

11. Output Power Capability Of Commercial Audio Power Amplifiers

    A  study creating quite a splash recently in the audio world. With the
    approval of the authors (Mamoru Sekiya and Matti Otala) we are pleased
    to publish it. The paper focuses on parameters-effects of complex load
    on  the  amplifier  output-previously neglected by amplifier designers
    even though these parameters correlate with sound quality to a greater
    extent than some traditional criteria.
