  4. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    The measure of the low frequency (many tens of Hz) noise contributed by the turntable of an analogue playback system. It is caused by imperfect bearings, uneven motor windings, vibrations in driving bands in some turntables, room vibrations (e.g., from traffic) that is transmitted by the turntable mounting and so to the phono cartridge.

  5. Dolby noise-reduction system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_noise-reduction_system

    The signal-to-noise ratio is simply how large the music signal is compared to the low level of tape noise with no signal. When the music is loud, the low background hiss level is not noticeable, but when the music is soft or in silence, most or all of what can be heard is the noise. If the recording level is adjusted so that the music is always ...

  6. Dynamic range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range

    Vinyl microgroove phonograph records typically yield 55-65 dB, though the first play of the higher-fidelity outer rings can achieve a dynamic range of 70 dB. [25] German magnetic tape in 1941 was reported to have had a dynamic range of 60 dB, [26] though modern-day restoration experts of such tapes note 45-50 dB as the observed dynamic range. [27]

  7. Infrasound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrasound

    In music, acoustic waveguide methods, such as a large pipe organ or, for reproduction, exotic loudspeaker designs such as transmission line, rotary woofer, or traditional subwoofer designs can produce low-frequency sounds, including near-infrasound. Subwoofers designed to produce infrasound are capable of sound reproduction an octave or more ...
