Very quietly.

Yesterday:

Unanimous praise for our
Cross-Field technique

Tandberg has long been famous for
its CrossiField Recording technique.
CrossField extends trequen
response and makes it possib e to
record at slower speeds with mini-
mum distortion. More important. it
dramatically improves signalsto-

noise ratio. In fact, Tandberg pedonn

ance at 3% ips matches other
machines at 7V2 ips I Heres what the
experts said shortly after we intro
duced our 9000X Cross-Field stereo
tape deck:

STEREO REVIEW found the signal/
noise measurements ".. equivalent
to the best figures we have ever
obtained on a consumer tape
machine. (August. 1973)

HIGH FIDELITY said. ..the
Tandberg already gives you the extra
10 dB of S/N claimed by the Dolby-5"
process. . . Performance . . . without
Dolby is similar to that of most

decks with Dolby. (October. 1973l

Today:

Weve added Dolby' to Cross-Field.

Enter the 9200XD. We call it The
Super Silencer

The X stands for Cross-Field. the
D for built~in Dolb circuits. The
9000X gave a 65 d weighted signal/
noise ratio at 7% ips and 3% THD
with UD/ SD tape: Good- but not
good enough for our steely-eyed
Norwegian engineers. Now the new
top-ofatherline QZOOXD gives a
guaranteed minimum 73 dB signal
tornoise mtio under the same
conditions. Thats Super Silence.

Tomorrow:

You must hear the 9200XD for
yourself.

STEREO REVIEW called the 9000X
, the current state of the art for
consumer tape recorders" But that
was before they heard the new
9200XD. It's the best recorder we've

ever made.

Were our only competitors.
