Hi, this is Bill Sikkens host of User

Friendly 2.0 Saturdays here

2

00:00:03,083 --> 00:00:06,083

on The Answer

with this week's Tech Wednesday.

3

00:00:06,291 --> 00:00:09,833

Stereo and audio technology

have come a very long way

4

00:00:09,833 --> 00:00:13,875

since this all started out

almost 100 years ago now with vacuum tube

5

00:00:13,875 --> 00:00:17,458

radios and eventually stereos

and quadraphonic sound.

6

00:00:17,458 --> 00:00:20,208

And, you know, lead up to what

we have today.

7

00:00:20,208 --> 00:00:22,666

A lot of us with smart

speakers have stepped back from stereo

8

00:00:22,666 --> 00:00:24,416

and have gone back to mono.

9

00:00:24,416 --> 00:00:26,500

But what is the technology

out there like today?

10

00:00:26,500 --> 00:00:29,000

Can you still buy a boombox?

Would you still want to?

11

00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,250

Does everybody just use smart speakers,

or do they even still have modern versions

12

00:00:33,250 --> 00:00:34,250

of the stereo equipment

13

00:00:34,250 --> 00:00:37,625

that we used to have back in the 90s

and other times like that

14

00:00:38,250 --> 00:00:40,333

this week on user Friendly 2.0,

we're going to be talking

15

00:00:40,333 --> 00:00:44,125

about stereo equipment,

where it has been, where it's going

16

00:00:44,375 --> 00:00:47,875

and what we have today, and there are ways

to still get stereo sound

17

00:00:47,875 --> 00:00:49,208

and some of these other technologies

18

00:00:49,208 --> 00:00:53,041

using your Bluetooth smart speaker,

just a matter of setting it up properly.

19

00:00:53,416 --> 00:00:56,208

So check it out

this Saturday here on User Friendly 2.0,

00:00:56,208 --> 00:00:59,666
