Measurements - Clearly Explained


Hi Everyone,

I found a page which explain amplifier measurements which I think many would find useful on the SoundStage web site:

http://www.soundstage.com/measurements/test_amplifiers.htm

They seem to be suffering from bad links. If you get directed to "SoundstageMagazine.com" just remove the "Magazine" part.

One thing a lot of people have questions about are the impedance of "real-world" loudspeakers. This I found at the Stereophile site, here:

Of course, this is 1 specific speaker load, but it does represent the challenges posed by many 2-way, dynamic loudspeakers.

Best,

E

I would like to add that measurements and amplifier measurement tools are needed to design amplifiers. They are not needed for buying amplifiers, since they tell you nothing how an amp will sound. Remember, most amplifier designers do the final voicing of there amps by ear, not measurements
