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.

Lowther PM6, PM4, PM2


For the finest sound in the world.
Basically , Lowther design has remained constant from the start since these units function on natural sonic principles which cannot be bettered. But through research, new materials and remarkably improved engineering techniques, Lowther drive units provide fantastically good performance whatever the sound source. These units are intended for use in internal folded-horn cabinets, the designs of which make electrical cross-over systems unnecessary.
Abridged technical specifications of Lowther Drive Units PM6, PM4 AND PM2 are given overleaf.
