The Model 88CD's third speaker (its subwoofer) is the foundation of its superb sound. It reproduces the musically important deep bass content that is normally associated with component stereo systems. The Model 88CD's main stereo speakers provide remarkable musical transparency. Three amplifier channels power the speakers, allowing the system to fill even large rooms with dynamic, accurate, distortion-free music. To enhance stereo reproduction, the Model 88CD offers a ``Wide'' mode. This precise sound processor increases the apparent width and depth of the stereo soundstage.

Naum Gabo, Model for 'Rotating Fountain', 1925, reassembled 1986, metal and plastic, 44.0 x 40.0 x 40.0 cm, Tate Gallery, London. This model was enlarged into a full-scale fountain, presumably with curved, rotating arms. Originally sited in a Dresden garden, it is now destroyed. See Constructivism, fountain, and kinetic.

Complementing its clear FM-Stereo and AM radio performance, the Model 88CD's Compact Disc player incorporates Random and Repeat modes, plus ``elapsed time'' display. Two AUX inputs connect to other sound sources. One is user- selectable from the front panel (for TV audio or personal music players). The other provides a constant mix with the main three inputs (useful for personal computers.)

Model-driven system development has long been used in the development of complex hardware systems. It is becoming more prevalent in complex software or combined hardware and software systems development as methodologies and tools become available that can manipulate software models from very abstract concepts through refinement and testing. The MoDELS series of conferences is the premier venue for the exchange of innovative technical ideas and experiences relating to model-driven approaches in the development of software-based systems.

The Model 88CD's solid construction features a multi-chamber acoustic system, plus acoustically transparent front grilles. The palm-sized infrared remote controller works from any point in a room. The Model 88CD is available in two handsome, durable finishes -- Ivory or Slate.
