ANXIETY
(Continued from [>afte 17)
AM/FM/FM stereo receiver, a pair of
speakers, an 8-track cartridge tape
player or a cassette recorder/plaver,
with a record player as the crowning
glorv sitting on tt>p And all this Is ar
ranged in and on some kind of
cabinet, sometimes described as
nouveau fruit box.
Usually made by no-name-brand
manufacturers, the best you can say of
this setup is that it supplies sound The
speakers are usually fixed in position
although some now permit the s(>eak
ers to be separated No specs are
supplied for compact systems, which is
probable just as well Bui the arrange
mem does have its advantages It is die
lowest cost system and comes pre
connected All vou need do is to put
die AC plug into the nearest outlet So
it is aggravation free until you've lis
tened to ii for a while it does not
permit svstem expansion nor does it
lend itself to ufigrading
The opposite approach is buying
each hi, ft component individually and
that could mean two or more speak
ers possibly including a subwoofer, a
power amplifier a pre amplifier, a
tuner a cassette deck or an open reel
deck (or both), an equalizer, and one
or more record plavers The record
plaver itself mav also be subdivided
into separate components such as a
tone arm, a phono cartridge a stylus,
and the record player mechanism Hut
you can also start with |ust a receiver
and a pair of speakers The receiver is
an integrated tuner, pre and power
amplifier
The technique of buying individual
components can be the most aggravat
mg. requires some undestanding of
the electronic vocabulary used in spec
sheets demands tfiat you select com
ponents, possibly from different manu
facturers tfiat will work well together,
and ls hv tar the most expensive way
to go it also means the responsibility
for interconnecting the individual
units is yours. But if you’ve done some
reading about hi/fi, this arrangement
can supple sound you will find incom
parable If space is a problem vou can
get micro components that work |ust
as well as larger ones
One advantage of the component
system is tfiat it lends iLself to the addi
lion of more units as your budget
permits, or replacing them based on
advances in hi/fi technology
Whether vou can add or modify the
system depends on your original pur
chase Buying hi/fi components means
keeping an eye on the future, buying
units that have enough inputs to per
mil their easy inclusion in the system
The quality of what you buy now will
determine the quality of subsequent
add-ons No hi/fi can do any better
than the lowest quality component in
the system Add-ons can increase the
flexibility of a system, but not its
overall sound quality
There are alternative approaches,
for these two, the compact and the
component, are extremes Some hi/fi
dealers sometimes advertise complete
packaged systems The bait in this case
is that the cost of such a system is at a
price that is lower than the sum cost of
the individual components f urther,
those that are selected by the dealer
will probable work well together, re
lieving you of the need to make
numerous buving decisioas The profv
lem here is tfiat the com|xinents mat
not be quite what vou would have
wanted, or they mat consist of stock
the dealer has been unable to move
on a single component basis They
mat also consist of outdated models
So this arrangement ls somewhere be
tween the two extremes of compact
and individual component selection.
Anotlier approach is to hut a aim
pleie system offered by a mariulac
turer This is a takeoff on the total svs
tern merchandising technique used bv
dealers ls more expensive than the
dealer offering but is less expensive
and time consuming than shopping for
vour own components The total cost
is often but not always less titan the
sum cost of the individual compo
nents And if you select a known,
name brand manufacturer you can be
surt- the components will be designed
10 work well together And sometimes
die manufacturer or his dealers will
supplv a free caster mounted rack,
complete with a glass door tfiat will
house all the components f urther
you will receive a set of cables for in
terconnections
Such an arrangement may or mat
IKK include the sjieakers These should
be separated bv a distance of about H
leet or more Vou mat have room for
free standing floor s|>t-akers or you
mat need bookshelf types
Still another hi/fi arrangement, rela
lively new is the portable made up of
micro-sized units which tan do double
duty by working in as well as oul
doors These generally have two
speakers, one on each side, attached
by clips Tfir speakers, can Ik- removed
and separated so as to supple full
stereo effect
These Happy Mew Year
bubbles (/rum champagne,
we like to think) were
wrought by Jeff Devins of
Honolulu, Hawaii, attending
the University of Hawaii. He
earns thirty whole dollars.
Other artistic types can also
earn big bucks; Just sub
