Download or read book Linear Audio written by Jan Didden Editor and published by Linear Audio. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear Audio Vol 0 is our first printed bookzine dedicated to technical audio and perception. This first issue has more than 12 insightful articles by an international team of authors: Solid State: Nelson Pass comes up with a tribute to the single ended triode power amp by replacing hollow state with silicon carbide in The Arch Nemesis*, while Douglas Self cuts through the confusion and handwringing by showing how Inclusive Compensation can be successfully applied. Joachim Gerhard goes Down the Rabbit Hole to get the lowest MC-preamp noise this side of liquid helium cooling*. Tube technology: Air Polisois extends his DC-coupling and Common Transformer developments in the deceptively simple Mini-Simplex, while Stuart Yaniger gives you the definite deal on The Truth about the Humble Cathodyne. Meanwhile, Frank Blohbaum shows you A New Low-Noise Circuit Approach for Pentodes with his BestPenthode circuits. Loudspeakers and perception: Jean-Claude Gaertner embarked on a wide-ranging project for an active 4-way, DSP driven, remotely controlled system Project21. The first part describes the satellites. Siegfried Linkwitz contributes his landmark paper on STEREO - From live to recorded and reproduced - What does it take? - this should be the basis for many a discussion of what is and what is not possibly in stereo, and why. Test Equipment: Bob Cordell developed his Distortion Magnifier, a simple add-on to any distortion measurement setup increasing the resolution by 20 or even 40dB*. Book reviews: Andy Bryner reviews Douglas Self's latest opus Small Signal Audio Design and likes what he reads, while Bob Cordell's Audio Power Amplifier Design is waiting in the wings to be revealed. Tips & Tricks: If, like Ed Simon, you have more ic's and transistor types than you can keep track off, you'll love his IC holder notebook. Musings: Rene Wouda asks "Do you remember your first single?" . A bit tongue-in-cheek but thoughtful nevertheless.

Download or read book Small Signal Audio Design written by Douglas Self and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-04-17 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small Signal Audio Design is a highly practical handbook providing an extensive repertoire of circuits that can be assembled to make almost any type of audio system. The publication of Electronics for Vinyl has freed up space for new material, (though this book still contains a lot on moving-magnet and moving-coil electronics) and this fully revised third edition offers wholly new chapters on tape machines, guitar electronics, and variable-gain amplifiers, plus much more. A major theme is the use of inexpensive and readily available parts to obtain state-of-the-art performance for noise, distortion, crosstalk, frequency response accuracy and other parameters. Virtually every page reveals nuggets of specialized knowledge not found anywhere else. For example, you can improve the offness of a fader simply by adding a resistor in the right place- if you know the right place. Essential points of theory that bear on practical audio performance are lucidly and thoroughly explained, with the mathematics kept to an absolute minimum. Self’s background in design for manufacture ensures he keeps a wary eye on the cost of things. This book features the engaging prose style familiar to readers of his other books. You will learn why mercury-filled cables are not a good idea, the pitfalls of plating gold on copper, and what quotes from Star Trek have to do with PCB design. Learn how to: make amplifiers with apparently impossibly low noise design discrete circuitry that can handle enormous signals with vanishingly low distortion use humble low-gain transistors to make an amplifier with an input impedance of more than 50 megohms transform the performance of low-cost-opamps build active filters with very low noise and distortion make incredibly accurate volume controls make a huge variety of audio equalisers make magnetic cartridge preamplifiers that have noise so low it is limited by basic physics, by using load synthesis sum, switch, clip, compress, and route audio signals be confident that phase perception is not an issue This expanded and updated third edition contains extensive new material on optimising RIAA equalisation, electronics for ribbon microphones, summation of noise sources, defining system frequency response, loudness controls, and much more. Including all the crucial theory, but with minimal mathematics, Small Signal Audio Design is the must-have companion for anyone studying, researching, or working in audio engineering and audio electronics.
