1. What is a power amplifier and how is it different from an audio amplifier?
A power amplifier is a type of audio amplifier designed to drive high-power loads such as speakers. It is capable of amplifying audio signals to a sufficient power output to drive speakers to produce greater volume.
-
2. What is the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of an audio amplifier?
Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is a measure of the ratio of the audio signal to the background noise, with higher values indicating less noise in the audio signal. A high SNR usually means clearer sound output.
-
3. Does the audio amplifier need to match the impedance of the speakers?
Yes, the output impedance of the audio amplifier should match the impedance of the speaker. Typically speakers have an impedance of 4Ω, 8Ω or 16Ω. Matching the impedance ensures that the amplifier delivers maximum power and the best sound quality from the speaker.
-
4. What should the frequency response range of an audio amplifier be?
The frequency response range of a good quality audio amplifier is usually between 20Hz and 20kHz, which is the typical frequency range that the human ear can hear. A wider frequency response ensures that the audio amplifier can accurately reproduce both low and high frequency details.
