2. Speaker wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaker_wire

   Speaker wire is a passive electrical component described by its electrical impedance, Z.The impedance can be broken up into three properties which determine its performance: the real part of the impedance, or the resistance, and the imaginary component of the impedance: capacitance or inductance.

3. Bi-wiring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bi-wiring

   Amplifier and loudspeaker with two elements and crossover networks. Top: normal connection. Bottom: bi-wiring. Loudspeaker bi-wired using banana plugs. Bi-wiring is a means of connecting a loudspeaker to an audio amplifier, primarily used in hi-fi systems. Normally, there is one pair of connectors on a loudspeaker and a single cable (two ...

4. Impedance matching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching

   This is related to transmission-line theory. Matching also enables the telephone hybrid coil (2- to 4-wire conversion) to operate correctly. As the signals are sent and received on the same two-wire circuit to the central office (or exchange), cancellation is necessary at the telephone earpiece so excessive sidetone is not heard. All devices ...

5. Covert listening device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covert_listening_device

   A covert listening device, more commonly known as a bug or a wire, is usually a combination of a miniature radio transmitter with a microphone. The use of bugs, called bugging, or wiretapping is a common technique in surveillance , espionage and police investigations.

6. Balanced audio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_audio

   The two wires form a circuit that can carry an audio signal. The term balanced comes from the method of balancing the impedance of each wire in the circuit; the line and all circuits directly connected to it (such as the driver and receiver) must have identical impedances with respect to some reference point. This means that much of the ...

7. Public address system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_address_system

   At the transmission end, a PSTN Telephone, mobile phone, VOIP phone or any other communication device that can access and make audio calls to a GSM based mobile SIM card can communicate with it. At the receiving end, a GSM transceiver receives these network transmissions and reproduce the analogue audio signal via a Power Amplifier and speaker.

8. Phone connector (audio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phone_connector_(audio)

   Phone plug mated in a phone socket. The plug's grooved tip is held firmly by the socket's spring tip contact. When not mated, this spring instead connects to the flat switch contact for detecting a plug. TS and TRS plugs of different sizes. A phone connector is a family of cylindrically-shaped electrical connectors primarily for analog audio ...

9. Repeater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeater

   For example, when a telephone call passes through a wire telephone line, some of the power in the electric current which represents the audio signal is dissipated as heat in the resistance of the copper wire. The longer the wire, the more power is lost, and the smaller the amplitude of the signal at the far end. So with a long enough wire the ...
