About Stereo

When we speak of modern-day electronics, the stereos hold a special place in homes, cars, and any commercial setting. These electronic devices are based on the special phenomenon of stereophonic sound that is used to reproduce a multi-directional audible perspective. And an important part of these systems is the stands.

Modern-day stereo sound systems can be divided into two forms. The first one is a natural or true stereo that captures live sounds with any natural reverberation or ambience present with an array of microphones. The pan-pot or artificial stereo, on the other hand, channels mono sounds with multiple loudspeakers. In technical usage, true stereo means sound recording and reproduction using stereographic projection. With the increasing trends of live performances, these stands are becoming a more and more important part of a DJ set. For the same reason, they come in a wide range of styles, materials and sizes.
