Both modern and vintage instruments, analog and digital, are covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe application side of this unique manual is focused on how to measure various parameters of hi-fi and guitar amplifiers, preamplifiers and crossovers, such as power consumption, gain, input sensitivity, output power, harmonic and intermodulation distortion, signal-to-noise ratio, crosstalk, input and output impedance, damping factor, frequency range and amplitude characteristic, internal AC \u0026amp; DC voltages and waveforms, phono stage equalization accuracy and even some speaker measurements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis one-of-a-kind, large format (A4 size) practical manual is richly and professionally illustrated with more than 130 photographs and 250 illustrations, measurement setups, circuit diagrams, graphs and tables.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderstanding test \u0026amp; measurement methods and the functionality of test instruments is a very useful skill. This book is a treasure-trove of practical information for DIY enthusiasts, amplifier builders and anyone who wants to learn how to test audio equipment. Instruments, test methods and principles are explained in a simple and straightforward way. The emphasis is not on theory, but on hands-on, practical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho will benefit from this unique book?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDIY constructors and amplifier builders who want to test the audio gear they've built and check its performance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eaudiophiles interested in the technical side of audio and the testing aspect of hi-fi equipment\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eguitar players who like modifying, repairing or building their own amps and speaker boxes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eelectricians, electrical or instrumentation technicians with interest in audio measurements\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eelectronic engineers and electrical engineering students\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ecollectors, buyers and sellers of vintage test instruments, who want to learn about their operating principles and features\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONTENTS (Chapter titles): \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eTEST INSTRUMENTS, ERRORS, LIMITATIONS \u0026amp; SAFETY ISSUES\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSIGNAL SOURCES, TRACERS, POWER SUPPLIES AND FILTERS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMULTIMETERS - TYPES, OPERATING PRINCIPLES AND FUNCTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOSCILLOSCOPES - HOW THEY WORK \u0026amp; HOW TO USE THEM\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTESTING PASSIVE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS (RESISTORS, CAPACITORS \u0026amp; INDUCTORS)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTESTING AUDIO AMPLIFIERS AND PREAMPLIFIERS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDISTORTION MEASUREMENTS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTRANSFORMER TESTS \u0026amp; MEASUREMENTS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLOUDSPEAKER TESTS \u0026amp; MEASUREMENTS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTRANSISTOR TESTERS AND CURVE TRACERS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTESTING VACUUM TUBES (VALVES)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 172\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 11.69 x 8.27 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 17, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44433923866726,"sku":"9780980622393","price":149.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/KzhwMUFsOEQyMlFRTFF5VEc0YXAvUT09.webp?v=1770407435","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/audio-tests-measurements-how-to-test-electronic-components-audiophile-guitar-amplifiers-and-loudspeakers-using-modern-and-vintage-test-instrumen-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
