Rewind Audio: July 2011

It's all In a Name: Introducing Rewind Audio!

Hey Friends and Fans,

We want to take a second to talk about how far we’ve come.

When Oscar and I first started our little shop, choosing a name was one of the hardest decisions. We had so many ideas but settling on one that we absolutely loved was more difficult than we ever imagined. Finally we decided on "Rewind the Recycled Electronics Store. " We felt that it best reflected our merchandise and our committed interest in creating a safer environment at the time. However, even though we've received positive feedback from friends and family on the title we still weren't satisfied with our store name.

The good news is this: We have boldly decided on a name change! We are now Rewind Audio. We feel this will make things simpler and tie everything together. It will no doubt probably make things confusing too, especially for our fans. In fact, because of this process we noticed we have close to 900 followers from Facebook, Twitter, Yelp, and our website and blog combined! Quite an accomplishment indeed -and we thank you all for making us what we are today!

With the rebirth of our shop, we are also creating a Youtube channel, a new Rewind Audio Twitter account and email subscription account which you can access at the new rewindaudio.com. And of course our new Facebook page which will always share the latest news and developments as they happen. We will be whole lot easier to locate as Rewind Audio. And your fingers will thank you, not having to type in so many words. (I know. You are so welcome!)

So wish us luck creating a newer, shinier, more tied together image of Rewind Audio’s awesome vintage gear and lifestyle! We couldn't do it without you, see you soon!

New Gear: SuperScope PSD220 Portable CD CD-R RW Player w/ Speaker

Music educators who have seen the new Superscope PSD230/220 CD players are buzzing with excitement. That's because these innovative products are ideal for music and dance practice, with controls so intuitive that even beginners can operate them.

For even more control during practice, a segment of a track can be selected and continually replayed until mastered. Step through an entire track or CD by making the endpoint of one loop the beginning point of the next one. In addition, a voice reduction system within the unit effectively reduces the lead vocals on many CDs, allowing a practicing musician to better hear the instrumentals or a vocalist to sing along as the new lead.

The PSD220 is specifically designed for those situations that require tempo change only, such as aerobics, dance, and instrument practice. Both PSD220 and PSD230 include many other professional features, such as analog and digital stereo outputs for connection to powered speakers or a recording device, 3-band EQ for tone balancing, CD-TEXT display, and 3-way power, as well as built-in speaker and headphone jack with volume control. Play compilations recorded on CD-R or CD-RW discs.

New Gear: Klipsch Synergy KSW 12 12" Powered Subwoofer Speaker

Complete a powerful home theater system with the deep, driving bass of the Klipsch KSW-12 powered subwoofer--perfect for combing with high-performance Klipsch Synergy Series surround sound configurations. It couples a 12-inch driver to the floor for optimal performance. This subwoofer's high-output, down-firing design "grips" the air and fills a room with low frequency energy that's heard and felt with undetectable distortion. The built-in discrete MOSFET amplifier and 12-inch fiber-composite woofer are as efficient as they are reliable. It provides 105 watts of FTC-rated continuous power, and it has a dynamic power rating of 440 watts. (Dynamic power indicates the actual power this amplifier will deliver to the woofer under normal operating conditions.)

The woofer is composed of a Santoprene rubber surround with a fiber composite cone which enables Klipsch subwoofers to deliver on their promise of extended bass response and maximum reliability. This subwoofer accepts LFE, line-level, and speaker level inputs, making it easy to add to the Quintet Microsystem, the Synergy System 6, or any other Klipsch inspired arrangement. The KSW-12's jet ash veneer vinyl finish creates a deceivingly subtle exterior for its earthshaking sound capabilities.
