To truly enjoy this hobby, I need to learn electronics. Any book recs?


I am at square zero in terms of understanding this stuff, and I am tired of navigating by Braille.

I want to find a class or a book that can give me at least the basics of how these circuits work to produce sound.

I would appreciate any suggestions of books, channels or classes that can help.

Try 'The art of electronics' by Horowitz and Hill.  It's a classic work that covers a lot of ground.

Also I recommend 'tube cad journal' on the net by John Broskie, this is proper electronics but not mired in jargon and maths.

Elliot Sound Products web pages are excellent.

John Linsley-Hood wrote for a number of magazines and published books on schematics for audio components, including:

  • The Art of Linear Electronics (Oxford, Butterworth-Heinemann, 1993)
  • Audio Electronics (Oxford, Newnes, 1995)
  • Valve and Transistor Audio Amplifiers (Oxford, Newnes, 1997)
