Pick-up Nad C556 Many of the world's most ardent music lovers believe that the 33 1/3 RPM Long Playing vinyl record remains the most musically communicative playback medium. NAD has a long history of producing some of the best value-for-money turntables and phono stages. The PP 2i is a legendary budget phono preamp, while the PP 3i takes the superb performance of the PP 2i and adds a simple way to convert your LPs into CDs using your computer and the internet to automate the 'CD mastering' process.

The result is a turntable that easily outperforms others at twice the modest asking price of the C 556. The secret to a good sounding turntable is to make a rock solid mechanical connection between the platter and the pickup stylus. Any play or vibration will either add resonant colouration (making the smack of a snare drum sound like a thud) or subtract the fine detail that is the primary benefit of well-played vinyl. To achieve this goal we use special materials and techniques. The three mechanisms that make up a turntable are the platter that supports and spins the record; the tone arm, which allows the stylus to accurately track the record; and the cartridge, which transforms the vibrations in the record groove into the electrical signals that are sent to your preamplifier. The platter of the C 556 uses a special

Descriere produsComentarii (0) Mini sistem Tangent Alio Fm/CD/Dock Share your personality When out and about, listening to your music on your iPod, iPhone, or other MP3 player is a personal experience. In fact, the whole concept, dating back to a portable cassette player, is based on individuality and personality. Today, more and more people have uncovered the pleasure in sharing their own personality with others, using their individual music player as a common source. And the new Tangent ALIO music system makes it a lot easier to do so. The single-speaker variant features many of the same sources as the Tangent ALIO stereo, but its smaller dimensions let it be placed flexibly, slipping onto a bookshelf or nightstand with ease. But don’t be fooled by its modest dimensions. The ALIO single-speaker provides sound performances that are normally reserved for much larger radios. The single 3.5” speaker unit located at the top of the solid cabinet makes it possible. This sound centre offers a simple solution to spreading your music. Simply connect your iPod or iPhone via the built-in dock on the top, and you’re in business. Certified as a “Made for iPhone” product, the Tangent ALIO seamlessly recognises your Apple product, and begins playback through its powerful built-in speaker. If that wasn’t enough for you, Tangent ALIO is loaded with additional features. The loud-ness and equalizer pre-sets can be employed as you wish, adjusting the soundscape to fit your personal preferences.
