  2. Line level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_level

    The impedance of a line input is typically around 10 kΩ. When driven by a line output's usual low impedance of 100 to 600 ohms, this forms a "bridging" connection in which most of the voltage generated by the source (the output) is dropped across the load (the input), and minimal current flows due to the load's relatively high impedance.

  3. Smith chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_chart

    Using the Smith chart, the normalised impedance may be obtained with appreciable accuracy by plotting the point representing the reflection coefficient treating the Smith chart as a polar diagram and then reading its value directly using the characteristic Smith chart scaling. This technique is a graphical alternative to substituting the values ...

  4. Electrical characteristics of dynamic loudspeakers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_characteristics...

    The amplifier damping factor, which is the ratio of the nominal load impedance (driver voice coil) to amplifier output impedance, is adequate in either case for well-designed solid state amplifiers. Tube amplifiers have sufficiently higher output impedances that they normally included multi-tap output transformers to better match to the driver ...

  5. KEF - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KEF

    KEF was the first loudspeaker manufacturer to deploy such materials in Hi-Fi speakers. MAT is a maze-like structure where each of the intricate channels absorbs a specific frequency. Sitting behind the tweeter, it absorbs unwanted sound radiating from the rear of the driver, reducing distortion and preventing audio distraction.

  6. Characteristic impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_impedance

    The input impedance of an infinite line is equal to the characteristic impedance since the transmitted wave is never reflected back from the end. Equivalently: The characteristic impedance of a line is that impedance which, when terminating an arbitrary length of line at its output, produces an input impedance of equal value. This is so because ...

  7. Damping factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping_factor

    The loudspeaker's nominal load impedance (input impedance) of is usually around 4 to 8 Ω, although other impedance speakers are available, sometimes dropping as low as 1 Ω or 2 Ω. However, the impedance rating of a loudspeaker is simply a number that indicates the nominal minimum impedance of that loudspeaker over a representative portion of ...

  8. 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. The ideal speaker wire has no resistance ...

  9. Immittance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immittance

    In electronics, an immittance Smith chart can be created by overlaying both the impedance and admittance grids, which is useful for cascading series-connected with parallel-connected electric circuits. This allows for the visualization of changes in impedance or admittance in the system caused by components of either the series or parallel circuit.
