  2. Digital room correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_room_correction

    Digital room correction may involve minimum phase algorithms, to maintain wavefront coherence over the intended frequency range.. The use of analog filters, such as equalizers, to normalize the frequency response of a playback system has a long history; however, analog filters are very limited in their ability to correct the distortion found in many rooms.

  3. Denon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denon

    Denon (株式会社デノン, Kabushiki Gaisha Denon) is a Japanese electronics company dealing with audio equipment. The Denon brand came from a merger of Denki Onkyo (not to be confused with the other Onkyo) and others in 1939, but it originally started as Nippon Chikuonki Shoukai in 1910 by Frederick Whitney Horn, an American entrepreneur.

  4. Radio receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_receiver

    An AV or Stereo receiver (in context often just called a receiver) is a component in a hi-fi or home theatre system combining a radio and audio amplifier in one unit that connects to the speakers and often to other input and output components (e.g. turntable, television, tape deck, and CD and DVD players)

  5. Radio receiver design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_receiver_design

    The reflex receiver was a design from the early 20th century which consists of a single-stage TRF receiver but which used the same amplifying tube to also amplify the audio signal after it had been detected. This was in an era where each tube was a major cost (and consumer of electrical power) so that a substantial increase in the number of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Derham

    In 1709 Derham published a more accurate measure of the speed of sound, at 1,072 Parisian feet per second. [6] Derham used a telescope from the tower of the church of St Laurence, Upminster , to observe the flash of a distant shotgun being fired, and then measured the time until he heard the gunshot with a half second pendulum.

  7. Reflex receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflex_receiver

    It functioned as a TRF receiver with one stage of RF and one stage of audio amplification. The radio frequency (RF) signal from the antenna passes through the bandpass filter C 1, L 1, L 2, C 2 and is applied to the grid of the directly heated triode, V 1. The capacitor C 6 bypasses the RF signal around the audio transformer winding T 2 which

    Also, there is no audio local oscillator; the injected video carrier serves that purpose. Analogue television receivers using system B and similar systems: 33.4 MHz for the aural and 38.9 MHz for the visual signal. (The discussion about the frequency conversion is the same as in system M.)

  9. Detector (radio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detector_(radio)

    A simple crystal radio with no tuned circuit can be used to listen to strong AM broadcast signals. An early form of envelope detector was the crystal detector, which was used in the crystal set radio receiver. A later version using a crystal diode is still used in crystal radio sets today.
