SPACE FIDELITY - THE MAIN BENEFITS

Captivatingly emotional sound

Space Fidelity creates a two-channel sound field throughout the listening space.
The entire room turns into a stereo chamber, filled to the brim with music.

Unique high-performance design ‘Plug and Play’ HiFi.

In the Grundig Space Fidelity system, all the functions of high-end HiFi are
packed into a single stand-alone unit with stunningly avant-garde styling.
The speakers are built-in, in the form of the Space Fidelity tube, so there are no
boxes to connect with unsightly cables.

The sound image is the same everywhere in the room.

With conventional stereo systems, you only hear stereo when you are inside an
area of a few square metres between and in front of the speakers.
Space Fidelity gives you a thrilling personal stereo experience everywhere you
go in the listening space.
Space fidelity’s stereo is not focused in the centre of the room at all. It follows
you around, like the eyes of the Mona Lisa. Wherever you go, you hear the
same unique live sound: Space Fidelity sound.

SPACE FIDELITY - THE BACKGROUND

Surround sound systems try to produce realistic 3-dimensional sound. But with
five speakers, it demands space, and is not always easy to fit into the room
decor. Because of this, various alternative solutions have appeared. All aim to
create a surround sound effect from a compact, easy-to-handle source.

These systems invariably use side lobing from speakers. The direct sound is
minimized, and surround sound is generated by reflections from the walls of the
listening space. This method can generate all-round sound, but cannot by its
nature reproduce clean stereo.

Space Fidelity is itself based on side-lobing. But it is not dependent on wall
reflections and therefore reproduces natural, true-to-life sound.

For a stereo channel, Space Fidelity produces a bi-polar energy field that
creates an air flow, equally powerfull in both directions, so, in effect, it creates
circular sound pressure fields.

Wherever you may be in the listening space, Space Fidelity gives a much
broader stereo sound sensation. Damping of the walls does not detract from the
live-performance quality of the sound, and in certain circumstances may indeed
improve it.

Space Fidelity’s acoustic tube creates precisely controlled acoustical coupling
between two conventional cone loudspeakers, one for each stereo channel, at
the opposite ends of the tube. 

Inside the tube, the nature and geometry of the damping material (a bundle of
very narrow evenly distributed channels) absorbs and controls, to avoid the
reflections. This mutual interaction achieves wide-ranging freedom from
reflections and good level response over the full frequency range.

As a result, the tube emits intrinsically synchronous wave fronts, with precise
phase relations. The sound is natural, three dimensional and still free of
blurring and loss of definition.

SETTING UP SPACE FIDELITY

Space Fidelity is very good-natured, and you can stand it almost anywhere to
enjoy superb sound. But if you want to feel the full force of this exciting system,
give it a little ‘breathing space’.
• Give it one-and-a-half to three metres of free space on both sides.
• Stand it off thirty centimetres from the wall.
• Then move back, sit back, and experience it. The most exciting sound you

ever heard.

MOUNTING THE WINGS ON SPACE FIDELITY

The wings are supplied with Space Fidelity
