Those headphones were used when they went to space back in the 60's. They used the long cable to connect the space ship with the control center after it launched.
I like that Soviet electronics has always had detailed instructions (manual). Sometimes there were electronic circuits that could be used for repairs. There were tables with the amplitude-frequency characteristic (AFC)(АЧХ) of audio equipment. Now it is difficult to find a detailed description of the characteristics if it is cheap electronics.
I prefer this, gives the device a longer life span. In today's market things aren't made to last longer because that's how they get you to buy more shit that's cheaply made and hard to fix
My dad used to own a vinyl player with a built-in amp from the 70s. Videoton or some similar brand. That sucker had a bedsheet-sized wiring diagram and datasheet for its major components.
TBF that was the case with all electronics at one point. My old bang & olufsen record player has the full circuit diagram and other stuff in a little pocket on the inside. B&O would never give you that stuff these days.

Because it was a different culture. Imagine that I will tell you all the stuffing of the iPhone and how it works. so that you can fix it yourself, which will encourage you to learn new skills, because it is extremely not difficult.. A huge number of engineers and it fell in love with their professions in childhood, reassembling it as a designer. It depends on how the whole world goes to the point that you don't even know how your application works, or the device scares you. This means that everything depends on the honesty of company managers. They can even stuff a bomb and no one except amateur specialists will know it.
I don't want any more Stalins, but Soviet engineering was so cool and honestly inspirational. Out-of-the-box thinking was common, repair and learning encouraged. Meanwhile Apple would send armed thugs to burn down your house for opening your own iPhone if they could get away with it.
All old electronics were like that around the world. Computers in the 80s like the IBM PC and Commodore 64 came with full service manuals or schematics (respectively).
From a Russian friend of mine "It's not TAC, but TDS (Telephones Dynamic Stereophonic) and the box is from another model. But those are legit Soviet-made headphones made for home use."
Also 'Handwritten notes'...I'm not Russian, don't speak Russian but that's clearly the warranty card because in that split second he showed the page, it read something with 'Garantia...' at the beginning.
As others have also noted, there is one thing that is very cool about the old Soviet tech - it came with a proper instruction manual that often even included complete wiring schematics and repair instructions. I still have couple of Game&Watch clones ("Elektronika") with complete PCB schematics printed in their instruction booklets.
Which makes sense given how expensive and in some cases how long it took for you to get it. The idea kinda was "hey if it's broken you fix it cause you're not buying a new one"

The ТДС-16 are actually a very interesting pair, still very desirable in Russian audiophile community. There's people who mod the hell out of them and seem to be getting a very solid sound. The reason being their orthodynamic construction (aka isodynamic), a technology not seen much nowadays. Diagram at 5:45 explains very well how they work: a very thin 10um membrane has an electromagnetic coil evenly distributed across its surface. The coil is formed by pattern-etching a thin layer of metal deposition. Then the membrane is sandwiched between two perforated magnets. Very light weight of the membrane in this construction is supposedly very good for accurately reproducing high frequencies, and the uniformity of magnetic field should be good for bass. The most common mod appears to be to stuff some cotton or fabric into the casing to dampen the sound and make them sound less tinny.

My grandfather was a musician and he had various Soviet audio devices. And once he gave me huge and super uncomfortable Soviet headphones, I already forgot the name.

In Soviet radioengineering teminology, headphones were literally called HEAD PHONES (ГОЛОВНЫЕ ТЕЛЕФОНЫ), while now they are called Наушники which means something like Earflaps.
Translation: I don't know how, but Soviet headphones turn typical American jazz into typical Soviet jazz. There's definitely some kind of magic involved here.
"Orthodontic stereofOnterian" is a jumbled mistranslation of what should be "Orthodynamic Stereophones" Orthodynamic is an old term for Planar Magnetic drivers, essentially.

My Dad can speak Polish (my Dads side of the family is Polish, he was born in Australia and so was I) and somehow my Dad said that Polish is a very simple language even though it really doesn't seem that way. The only things i've picked up from him (and of course my Babcia and Ciocia arguing) is a few swear words they yell out in Polish. All in all, the only thing I can really say i've learnt about speaking Polish is that swearing in Polish is addictive (to me at least).

Basically a proof that a product has passed quality control, as products that failed the tests wouldn’t be allowed to be sold.

I actually like the sound of the new Russian headphones, whilst the HD600 have a much fuller sound and bass, I found the highs to be a bit mushy, I preferred the open airiness of the Russian ones, just a bit more bass and would be spot on for me. 🙂
With all my respect to HD600, they were designed to please the users. And TDS 16 were designed to comply with all audio standards, and like any monitor headphones, they will please the professionals. And they are orthodynamic, which means they have extremally smooth frequency response. Three stamps mean that in case headphones are damaged you could got them fixed three times free of charge.
Yes. Not only smooth frequency response but also crisp transients etc. Reasonable comment without stupid jokes and other idiocy. Also these headphones require a good amplifier. I do not remember exactly, but it needs some proper output impedance or something like that. And this guy in the video used some external soundcard which is not made to drive isodynamic speakers

@@kjullthedemon As a carrier, I will say: Russian is too simple and twofold at the same time. If we talk about pronunciation - everything is simple and without surprises. Meaning of words.... We can have one word with multiple meanings (for example, like your "red" or "blue" - we have two different colors, and you just have "red"); wordplay is a different story. About grammar and completely silent - it is lighter than yours, but any "but" - tin. Overall, Russian is something between Spanish and German. But given the literary past - and a rather sublime language..... If it's not all about foul language) All in all, success. It will be better to teach by talking to the carrier. So quickly you will begin to realize all sorts of illogicalities and communicate not with your tongue and ears, but with your soul. Especially when the brick falls on the leg :)

The "tac" on those headphones actually is read like "tds" and stands for "dynamic stereo headphones". Also, to help you with the sides - П is for right (Правый) and Λ is for left (Левый)

Nice video) Really Russian language isn't so difficult. ) For example ПРАВЫЙ ( П) is mean "Right", ЛЕВЫЙ (Л) - "Left" . In the USSR, people were more careful about technology, because it was expensive. Therefore, in the package with the instructions there are 3 warranty cards for repairing headphones. All the best to you from RF.
7:03 the funniest part about those headphones that they called "telephone" or "head telephone". It's funny because no one calls headphones like that in Russian (headphones are "on-ears" in literal translation). Apparently these headphones are so old that the name is a literal translation of the word "head phone".
@@CaptainReynolds-flyinspace Потому что когда копировали технологию, скопировали и название, бегло проведя его по словарю вместо того, чтобы придумывать собственное. А "наушники" это уже устоявшееся сленговое название.
"head telephone" - this is what they say only at the department of sound engineering in some universities, where one of the elderly teachers with a Soviet education remained) "головные телефоны" - так говорят только на кафедре звукорежиссуры в некоторых вузах, где остался кто-то из преподавателей преклонного возраста с советским образованием) Да и не то чтобы говорят, скорее требуют так писать в курсовых и дипломных работах, но это не обязательное условие, разумеется.
@@terra__ maybe the second variant would be more accurate (or maybe "on-ear-ies"), I don't know how best to translate this. This word ("Naushniki" - "na" is "on", "ush[i]" is "ear[s]") has a "-ik" suffix at the end (upd. "-n" also a suffix), which I think indicates that it is "something that which is worn on the something (ears on this case)". The last "i" indicates plural. One earpiece will simply be "Naushnik".
I’m going to try very hard to remember this in case I encounter any Polish or Russian (?) headphones in the wild. Or on the internet, which I already have once.

I immediately put them on the shelf and forgot. And then, somehow it happened that my Razor headphones broke, I remembered those that had a big jack, I cut them through the adapter, and damn it, the razor didn’t have such a clear sound, it was some kind of ancient magic . Moreover, I could even hear from which side the opponents were moving, as in modern gaming headphones. Then someone threw these headphones out of their parents like trash. It's a pity.

I actually like the sound of the new Russian headphones, whilst the HD600 have a much fuller sound and bass, I found the highs to be a bit mushy, I preferred the open airiness of the Russian ones, just a bit more bass and would be spot on for me. 🙂
With all my respect to HD600, they were designed to please the users. And TDS 16 were designed to comply with all audio standards, and like any monitor headphones, they will please the professionals. And they are orthodynamic, which means they have extremally smooth frequency response. Three stamps mean that in case headphones are damaged you could got them fixed three times free of charge.
Yes. Not only smooth frequency response but also crisp transients etc. Reasonable comment without stupid jokes and other idiocy. Also these headphones require a good amplifier.

We can have one word with multiple meanings (for example, like your "red" or "blue" - we have two different colors, and you just have "red"); wordplay is a different story. About grammar and completely silent - it is lighter than yours, but any "but" - tin.
Overall, Russian is something between Spanish and German. But given the literary past - and a rather sublime language..... If it's not all about foul language)
All in all, success. It will be better to teach by talking to the carrier. So quickly you will begin to realize all sorts of illogicalities and communicate not with your tongue and ears, but with your soul. Especially when the brick falls on the leg :)

"головные телефоны" - так говорят только на кафедре звукорежиссуры в некоторых вузах, где остался кто-то из преподавателей преклонного возраста с советским образованием) Да и не то чтобы говорят, скорее требуют так писать в курсовых и дипломных работах, но это не обязательное условие, разумеется.
"on-ears" or "on-ears-ies"? if you have only one earbud left its "on-ear-y" I think? :))
"on-ear-ing" smh
@@terra__ maybe the second variant would be more accurate (or maybe "on-ear-ies"), I don't know how best to translate this. This word ("Naushniki" - "na" is "on", "ush[i]" is "ear[s]") has a "-ik" suffix at the end (upd. "-n" also a suffix), which I think indicates that it is "something that which is worn on the something (ears on this case)". The last "i" indicates plural. One earpiece will simply be "Naushnik".
I love hearing him pronounce the Russian letters and hearing him say “TAC - 6” instead of “TDS - 6”

Dank: "ТДС" = "Tac"
