Realistic Specification of Amplifier Output

Authors: Johnson, J. H.

AES Convention 56 · Paper 1201 · March 1977

Abstract

The specification of power amplifier output capability, seemingly a simple matter, has in practice been subject to confusion. An effort is made to clarify this matter. Following review of relevant theoretical relationships, the behavior of amplifiers under actual, non-ideal conditions of use, is discussed. Some suggestions for a rationalized specification are given.
