Stereo Action was a revolutionary concept of stereo recording in which instruments, singers, whole sections, and even full orchestras were placed into movement so that the listener had, quite literally, music that his eyes could follow.
Stereo Action is a conscious and deliberate effort to set music in motion by utilizing actual movement of instruments and sounds from one speaker to the other, and even, at times, suspending an instrument or sound between speakers. It is a pioneering concept in stereo listening, and resulted from years of extensive experiments and remarkable technical break-throughs by the RCA Victor corps of engineers.
