The high quality of digital sound is now the norm. The future of personal audio must meet the above criteria and more. That’s why Sony has created the MiniDisc, a revolutionary evolution in the field of digital audio based on an advanced miniature optical disc. The MD offers consumers the quick random access, durability and high sound quality of optical media, as well as superb compactness, shock- resistant portability and recordability. In short, the MD format has been created to meet the needs of personal music entertainment in the future. Based on a dazzling array of new technologies, the MiniDisc offers a new lifestyle in personal audio enjoyment. The Features 1. The MiniDisc System 1.1. The Features With the MiniDisc, Sony has created a revolutionary optical disc. It offers all the features that music fans have been waiting for. Quick Random Access The MiniDisc offers quick random access to the music selection or phrase of your choice; something only a disc is capable of. Total Durability The MiniDisc can never stretch, break or tangle like cassette tapes. Since the free floating optical pick-up never touches the surface, scratches are impossible. Superb Compactness The MiniDisc itself is only approximately 64 mm in diameter, and the cartridge is 72 x 68 x 5 mm. And because the MiniDisc is smaller, so is the MiniDisc player. Shock-Resistant Portability The MiniDisc is resistant against shocks and vibrations. New technology, using an advanced semiconductor memory, provides almost total shock resistance so there is no skipping and jitter even while jogging or driving. Easy to Handle The disc is protected in a cartridge. It is easy to handle and the ideal sound carrier for mobile use. Unsurpassed Digital Sound The MiniDisc is based on the same noiseless and distortion-free digital recording technology as the compact disc. So whether you are recording your own or listening to prerecorded music, you have the optimum in audio quality wherever you go. Recordable Disc 4 Track Recording: “A disc which records” is every music fan’s dream come true. The MiniDisc offers about 74 minutes digital recording on one tiny disc. 2 DADC AUSTRIA What it is and How it works 1.2. What it is and How it Works is special. Prerecorded music packages require a label, featuring the artist’s picture or other infor- mation – for it is the artwork that most often Two Kinds of MiniDiscs are Available: captures the buyer’s eye. Therefore the top face Premastered MiniDiscs for of the cartridge is left completely free for the Music Software label. A window for the laser beam to read the disc is only necessary on the bottom face. Premastered MiniDiscs are used most commonly for music and are sold in record stores just the Recordable MiniDiscs same as compact cassettes and CDs are. Magneto-optical (MO) technology forms the heart MiniDiscs, just like CDs, are manufactured in of the recordable MiniDisc technology. Not only large volumes by high-speed injection molders, are MO discs durable enough to withstand being and the music signals are recorded during repli- rerecorded about 1 million times, they also have a cation in the form of pits. life expectancy approaching that of CDs.

Active versus Passive – the Situation In any hifi-system, the loudspeakers are the pivotal component concerning sound quality. That is not to say that the other components do not matter. Nevertheless, it is indisputable that the loudspeaker is decisive for the sound of a hifi-system. It is – besides the acoustical properties of the listening room and the recording itself – the core of any music reproduction. The history of loudspeaker development has produced a great variety of very different systems and designs. The circuit technology of the frequency-separating filter that separates the audio signal into different frequency ranges is determining the design of a loudspeaker. In this respect we distinguish between active and passive systems. Usually, this is a topic that is often underestimated in its importance for sound quality. Active-passive is much more than just a technical negligibility: In fact, the impact of the dividing network on the overall sound of a loudspeaker is substantial. Active or passive – which system is preferable? Considering the aspects mentioned before, it may become a little more comprehensive why the very question comes up over and over again in the hifi-world. For decades it has been spooking as a debate on principles in the journals and magazines and for some time, now, in the web forums.

Digital offers great benefits to all of us, and makes our lives easier and better. Such benefits would have been impossible using analog technology. Who would go back to the world of cassette tapes, for example, after experiencing the ease of access and clean sound quality of a CD? Until recently, analog sound systems have been the standard for sound reinforcement and PA applications. However, recent technological advances have brought the benefits of digital audio to the live sound arena. Digital audio is superior
