SONY LISSA (2000)

The SONY LISSA was a very unique hi-fi stereo system that was introduced in the year 2000. It was so unique that the concept was never further developed, remaining a one off concept. The LISSA was a set of Hi-Fi components that was based on the i.LINK interconnect standard, known as IEEE 1394 or FireWire, that was developed as a cooperation between Sony, Panasonic and Apple. Since the first Apple desktop computer was named Lisa (1983), Sony decided to use the name LISSA for this system even though their name adopted for this communication system was:...i.LINK. Basically the SONY LISSA system consists of the following components (all remote controlled): CDP-LSA1 CD player, MDS-LSA1 MiniDisc recorder, STR-LSA1 reciever and SDP-LSA10 DVD/SACD player that are connected with each other using nothing but this i.LINK/IEEE1395/Firewire digital audio-data connector. It was only the STR-LSA1 50W/ch receiver that had an aditonal stereo analog input. As matching loudspeakers the SS-LA500ED were one of the standard acesoires. Standard dimension of a unit: 430x315x70mm (WxHxD).
