In parts one and two, I made a case for the idea that real power handling was intimately tied to the nature of the signal, as well as the electromechanical parameters of the speaker under test. We ...

Impedance is complicated and frequently misunderstood. A speaker designer doesn't "choose" speaker impedance. The overall impedance is dictated by the number of drivers and crossovers. It is an ...

I've got a cheap little Onkyo 509 hooked up to a pair of Polk Monitor 50s and a powered subwoofer. After running this setup for a year and a half, my cheap little Onkyo started going into protection ...

Impedance is measured using a variety of techniques. A particular technique is selected according to the test frequency, the impedance parameter to be measured and the preferred display parameters.
