SONY TA 8650 (1973) | V-Fet Power

 

Does it pay to buy an amplifier this good?...was asking Sony in 1973. Sony research took the art of amplification a giant step forward... First, Sony developed an entirely new, high-power transistor, the Vertical FET (V-FET). Unlike any conventional bipolar transistor or the regular FET used in FM tuners, this semi-conductor has all the characteristics of the classic triode vacuum tube, assuring a high current utilization ratio and uniform thermal flow for exceptionally stable operation under varying conditions. 

Second, Sony used its new V-FET technology to build an amplifier which meets exceptional needs: great power delivered with the smooth "open" sound, long thought the exclusive attribute of vacuum tubes. At the same time all the proven benefits of advanced solid state, particularly high stability and reliability have been retained. Result: The Sony TA 8650, a truly magnificent integrated amplifier which gives 80+80 watts of musical sound so "real" it lives. The fidelity is unsurpassed with distortion levels so low they're nearly unmeasurable! Pre-amp: 0.03% THD at rated output; Power amplifier: 0.05% or less @ 1kHz, @ 1W: 0.1% or less, 20Hz-20kHz @ rated output, Frequency response curves for high level inputs are ruler flat (+0,-2dB) from 10Hz to 100kHz. Phono equalization is also unusually impressive, corresponding to the RIAA curve 0.2dB. Yet these ultra specifications alone can't indicate the unit's unexcelled performance under musical conditions, with transient and phase response never attained in normal solid state construction. 

Now, great power and superb, natural fidelity come in a package along with literally dozens of application and facility features, typical of Sony design ingenuity. To list a few: high quality professional LED clipping level indicator to show overload, complete FET protection circuits which prevent circuitry or speaker damage, complex professional controls designed for utmost accuracy and precision, including instant 20dB muting volume control, and level control memory. Tape monitor and dubbing facilities are thoroughly professional and very comprehensive, as are the rear panel connection facilities.

Sonab C-500 (1975) | iF Design Award

 

The Swedish Sonab C-500 stereo cassette deck was introduced in 1975 but it was actually manufactured in Japan to Sonab specifications. The Sonab C-500s unique styling was created by Swedish designer Clas-Göran Wanning and in 1976 was awarded the prestigious "iF Design Award". The Sonab C-500 is constructed in such a way as to make it as simple as possible to handle, to play and above all to record. Recording as you may know is the function that requires knowledge as well as facilities. To help you as much as possible Sonab has equipped the C-500 with Dolby B-system noise reduction. There is tape selector for standard and chrome tapes, which changes both bias and equalisation, quasipeak value recording level meters, mixing facilities between left and right channels plus centre microphone, memory rewind and built in amplifier for headphones, which enables you to monitor the recording at a level acceptable to you. The deck was factory optimized for BASF LH or Maxell UD normal tape (depending on the market it was sold) and TDK Krom-O2 for chrome tape position. The deck is equipped with both DIN-standard and RCA in/out sockets, Dolby record level adjustment for STD and Chrome (independent L+R adjustment) and playback level. The VU meters have a very unique design but they are in fact normal needle type level meters with the "0" level highlighted. On the other hand the three microphone input at the front will give us a hint as to who was the manufacturer. The Sonab C 500 is actually based on the Nakamichi 500 in a simplified version with a price less than half the the RRP of the Nakamichi.

Victor TD-550 (1972) | 3 motor auto reverse tape deck

 

3 motor auto reverse. A real tape deck! Although it is not as convenient as a cassette tape, the joy of operating the machine and the psychology of tape fans are what make the open reel type so appealing. The mechanism must also be able to fully respond to that. The TD-550 model released in 1972 is a three-motor auto-reverse tape deck for advanced tape enthusiasts. The 3 motors include an optimal 6-pole eddy current motor for winding, and a 4-8-pole hysteresis synchronous motor for the capstan, ensuring accurate and stable rotation. Operation is via full-scale all-electronic piano push buttons, and all operations can be performed with the lightest touch of your fingertips, giving the feeling of a professional machine. The drive system is center capstan type. The four heads are arranged symmetrically on the left and right, so the auto reverse function ensures that recording and playback are performed under the same conditions both ways. Other features include a convenient pause button for recording, an electromagnetic brake mechanism that does not put strain on the tape, sound-on-sound, and a well-equipped amplifier section, so you can enjoy authentic tape play with high-quality sound.

KYOCERA PL-910 (1984) | Ceramic Compound Resin

 

The PL-910 turntable was the ultimate expression of Kyocera's anti-resonance fine ceramics technology. The PL-910 is not only the top of the Kyocera turntable line; it will stand in audio history as one of the finest turntables ever built. It incorporates the most up-to-date technology and materials to accomplish the age-old goal of all turntable designers: rotational stability and resonance-free performance. Consideration has been given to every last detail in the manufacture of this masterpiece, down to the actual construction materials themselves. The platter, for example, has been manufactured of Fine Ceramics to be precise, alumina-ceramics-proven to possess hardness qualities close to those of diamond-and vibration-attenuating characteristics far superior to conventional materials such as ordinary aluminum. This Fine Ceramics platter is placed in full planar contact with an aluminum sub-platter of a different resonance frequency, thereby dramatically reducing unwanted resonances. Fine ceramics is used further in the platter spindle and the thrust bearings of the spindle. These extremely hard thrust bearings are capable of supporting the heavy platter without excessive wear, creating an ultra precise pivot point for extremely smooth rotation. The base chassis of the PL-910 is made of Ceramic Compound Resin (CCR) to isolate the turntable itself from external vibration (mechanical and acoustical feedback). The "howling" normally experienced in the presence of loud signals from large loudspeakers is unheard of in the PL-910. Although the PL-910 is equipped with a heavily damped, powerful DC-servo brushless motor (Matsushita DAX-10A1PM), the actual drive system is via belt to remove any last possible doubt concerning rotational stability. Ceramic Compound Resin (CCR) base chassis successfully isolates external vibration. A high-purity alumina-ceramics platter mounted in full planar contact with an aluminum sub-platter with different resonance characteristics creates an effective resonance barrier Dual-suspension system separates the turntable and tonearm from the sub-chassis to isolate any possible externa sources of vibration. DC-servo brushless motor belt-drive system. Heavily-damped motor avoids the creation of internal vibrations. Self-illuminated strobe with on/off switch. 4mm-thick transparent acrylic cover. Four types of optional arm bases to mount most high quality separate tonearms.

Victor AX-S5 (1992) | Advanced Super-A

 

Power and Dynamics. Sound quality and outstanding reliability - these are the groundbreaking results of many years of experience in audio technology. The AX-X5 also guarantees amplifier technology of the highest standard, which is particularly evident in the precise reproduction of quiet musical passages. Because the susceptibility of the audio signal to interference is particularly high at low levels. That's why Victor has developed a high-precision differential amplifier that eliminates all types of interference such as common-mode noise or mains hum. Crosstalk effects are reduced to a minimum by short signal paths in conjunction with relay-controlled program source selection and a separate design of the power stages. And selected components ensure maximum operational reliability and long-term quality. Sold on the International market as AX-A662BK this is a convincing realization of the JVC philosophy: a digitally compatible amplifier that reproduces the subtlest nuances with pure sound while offering large power and dynamic reserves. Hermetically sealed relays and selected components for the best possible fidelity. The Advanced Super-A circuit, a JVC-specific contribution to audio technology, delivers the sound quality of conventional Class-A amplifiers, known for their low distortion across a wide frequency range. Instead of electronic switches, relays are responsible for switching operations to further reduce noise and shorten the cable paths to a minimum, because every centimeter of transmission path results in signal loss. The inputs have been equipped with buffer stages to ensure effective decoupling of the input stage and higher transmission fidelity. The high-precision differential amplifier delivers a wide dynamic range, more precise sound resolution, and greater sound presence.

PIONEER CT-770 (1980) | All Day Compo

 

The CT-770 is a stereo cassette deck equipped with ribbon sendust head and an Auto BLE system. This head is made by laminating 11 sheets of ribbon sendust thinned to a thickness of 50 microns, which suppresses the occurrence of eddy current loss, which is a problem with metal heads, and improves high-frequency characteristics. In addition, it is a combination type that allows the optimum gap width to be set for each recording head and playback head, and also prevents azimuth deviation. It is equipped with an Auto BLE system that allows recording adjustment to match the tape characteristics. The Auto BLE system enables optimal recording by adjusting the recording bias, recording level (tape sensitivity), and recording equalizer to the tape characteristics used by the built-in microprocessor's 4-bit arithmetic processing. When the tape is set and the Auto BLE button is pressed, adjustment is completed in 10 seconds, and the tape is automatically rewound to the start position and enters recording standby mode. The mechanism uses a closed-loop dual capstan system, which improves head contact by always keeping the tape tension constant, and suppresses dropouts, level fluctuations, modulation noise, and flutter components. The mechanism uses an electronically controlled DC torque motor with a built-in generator and a DC high torque motor to ensure high stability. In addition, a dedicated electronic servo motor is used for the head base drive, and the head base moves up and down extremely quietly, reducing damage to the head. In addition, the ejection also uses a motor drive method that utilizes the rotational force of this motor. The display section uses a centralized display board, and the tape running status, level meter, tape type, and Dolby NR system ON/OFF are displayed by LEDs. It is equipped with a two-color LED level meter with excellent response speed. It is also worth to be noted that there was another, completely different CT-770 for the international market in 1986. Something that is not the first time in the history of Pioneer.

TEAC CD-5 (1994)

 

A shape that makes a statement, an innovative vibration control structure that brings out the best in music. Vibrations and resonance caused by the "bonnet" greatly diminish the nuances of the sound recorded on the disc. A vibration control structure with high rigidity and high mass is adopted to eliminate adverse effects due to vibration and resonance. For the CD-5, a steel damper material with a thickness of 1.6 mm and a weight of 1.1 kg is rigidly fixed to the top plate, and a steel damper material with a thickness of 1.2 mm is also used for the bottom plate. By making the upper and lower sides of the casing highly rigid and heavy, a stronger structure is achieved. In addition, the front panel is made of 5 mm thick solid aluminum, and by placing only the minimum necessary keys, the opening is reduced and the influence of sound pressure is reduced. The D/A conversion section uses the Philips D/A converter bit stream "SAA7350" and has a 1-bit 4-DAC configuration, thereby eliminating non-linear distortion and 0 cross distortion in principle. The digital filter uses a 20-bit 8-times oversampling digital filter.

Main features of the CD-5

High rigidity, high mass structure with heavy steel damper material on the top and bottom of the case and 5mm thick solid aluminum on the front panel

Conical bottom with pinpoint grounding to minimize unnecessary vibrations

Victor ZD-V919 (1993) | 20bit Digital Recording Master

 

The ZD-V919 introduced by Victor in 1993 was a DCC (Philips standard Digital Compact Cassette) recorder that could also playback your old Compact Cassette collection (both Dolby B and C encoded cassettes). Equipped with 20-bit high-precision signal processing, Victor DCC can now express even the nuances of minute signals. The original PASC-LSI with 24-bit internal calculations and a new PASC-LSI with 24-bit internal calculations was developed to fully utilize the capabilities unique to DCC. It can handle not only the 16-bit recorded CDs, but also 20-bit music signals with ease. It reproduces the nuances and reverberations of music beautifully. Compared to the 16-bit precision of CD and DAT signals, the V919's digital signal processing circuit has succeeded in achieving a dynamic range of 20-bit precision. Furthermore, to make the most of this capability, the D/A conversion section has been made as precise as possible. The D/A converter uses the well-established 1-bit DD converter. The 4th-order noise shaver and PEM circuit achieve ideal conversion characteristics. In addition, the 20-bit digital audio interface, new DD converter and 18-bit input digital filter provide the digital quality that only DCC can provide. This achieves the ultimate in high quality sound. The display on the deck itself shows up to 12 characters of music information from DCC music software (up to 40 characters with the scroll function). Album titles, track titles, and even artist names are displayed in sequence with one touch. In addition, the total track number and total tape time are also displayed. When searching for a song you want to listen to, you can select the song while checking the song title, providing an unprecedented operating feeling. The ZD-v919 is equipped with three optical input terminals that serve as the input center for digital sources.
