History
The first “chains” designed for the general public are the chains stereo, which developed with the birth of the Long-playing record 33 turns. The arrival of the Compact Disc or CD, the beginning of the Years 1980, mark the end of the discs vinyls at the same time as it makes it possible to manufacture less cumbersome hi-fi systems and of better quality in term of Signal-to-noise ratio. The appearance of novel methods of compression and coding, the marketing of new supports (Laserdisc, DVD, Minidisc, Super Audio CD) led the manufacturers to propose equipment adapted to these innovations.The hi-fi systems are presented then either in a compact way, only one case gathering all the elements except for the enclosures, or in the shape of separate elements which can be different marks.
In the Years 2000, the emergence of the numerical electronic gave place to new variations of the hi-fi system, in the shape of mini-chains equipped with connectors USB to connect a wandering MP3 or in the form of “stations of listening” intended for walkmans MP3. But these products all do not answer the very severe criteria of high fidelity.
Several manufacturers, like Cabasse, Focal or Triangle Industries, propose top-of-the-range equipment today to satisfy most demanding of the Audiophile S.
