2. List of resistors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_resistors

   The aluminum-cased types are designed to be attached to a heat sink to dissipate the heat; the rated power is dependent on being used with a suitable heat sink, e.g., a 50 W power rated resistor overheats at a fraction of the power dissipation if not used with a heat sink. Large wirewound resistors may be rated for 1,000 watts or more.

3. Audio power amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power_amplifier

   Audio stereo power amplifier made by McIntosh The internal view of a Mission Cyrus One hi-fi integrated audio amplifier (1984) [1]. An audio power amplifier (or power amp) amplifies low-power electronic audio signals, such as the signal from a radio receiver or an electric guitar pickup, to a level that is high enough for driving loudspeakers or headphones.

4. Power amplifier classes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_amplifier_classes

   In electronics, power amplifier classes are letter symbols applied to different power amplifier types. The class gives a broad indication of an amplifier 's characteristics and performance. The first three classes are related to the time period that the active amplifier device is passing current, expressed as a fraction of the period of a ...

5. Audio power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

   For most audio applications more power is needed at low frequencies. This requires a high-power amplifier for low frequencies (e.g., 200 watts for 20–200 Hz band), lower power amplifier for the midrange (e.g., 50 watts for 200 to 1000 Hz), and even less the high end (e.g. 5 watts for 1000–20000 Hz).

6. Amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier

   An amplifier that is said to have a gain of 20 dB might have a voltage gain of 20 dB and an available power gain of much more than 20 dB (power ratio of 100)—yet actually deliver a much lower power gain if, for example, the input is from a 600 Ω microphone and the output connects to a 47 kΩ input socket for a power amplifier. In general ...

7. Home audio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_audio

   AV receiver: Also known as a home theater receiver, connects to a TV and decodes multiple audio channels to power a multi-speaker surround sound system. Preamplifier: It takes the weak audio signal from the source component and sends a stronger signal to the amplifier. Controls and selects audio sources, adjusts volume, and may offer tone ...

8. Sound reinforcement system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_reinforcement_system

   All loudspeakers, including headphones, require power amplification. Most professional audio power amplifiers also provide protection from clipping typically as some form of limiting. A power amplifier pushed into clipping can damage loudspeakers. Amplifiers also typically provide protection against short circuits across the output and overheating.

9. Home theater in a box - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_theater_in_a_box

   A home theater in a box (HTIB) is an integrated home theater package which "bundles" together a combination DVD or Blu-ray player, a multi-channel amplifier (which includes a surround sound decoder, a radio tuner, and other features), speaker wires, connection cables, a remote control, a set of five or more surround sound speakers (or more ...
