Best Answer

you overdrive it by clipping it, by having the input signal being to strong. anything above -0db on the amp is clipping, so be careful.

What is the advantage of a bidirectional cable amplifier over a unidirectional cable amplifier?

A biderectional cable amplifier with a bypass is excellent for use with digital TV, because it amplifies the return signal. Using a unidirectional cable amplifier can result in some channels that do not work because the return signal is not amplified.


What advantage does the class B amplifier have over the class A amplifier?

The main advantage is lower power dissipation as the amplifier is not conducting half the time, however the resulting disadvantage is that it is nonlinear unless the more complex push-pull amplifier design is used (requiring about twice as many components).


Can you connect a normal bass speaker to a system that has an active sub out put?

An output for an active sub-bass unit is a line level signal, typically around a volt or so. It won't drive a speaker directly so an active sub incorporates and amplifier to drive the loudspeaker. The way to use a passive bass speaker is to take the sub output into another amplifier and use one channel of the amplifier to drive the passive speaker. It's an easy solution if there happens to be a spare amplifier at hand. If it will involve the purchase of a new amplifier, it may prove more cost effective to buy an active sub-bass unit instead. However, passive bass drivers tend to be used in higher quality systems so it might offer a great quality sound with a good amplifier.


When a PNP transistor is connected in a circuit it can be used as a power amplifier because?

A PNP transistor has no advantage or disadvantage over an NPN transistor in its ability as an amplifier. Rather, the current-handling capacities of the transistor determine if it's usable as an amplifier.


My TV has an eight in audio out Can I use 2 converters a male banana to female quarter in and male quarter in to female eighth to connect the tv to the wall inputs?

The 1/8th inch jack connector in a television supplies a line level output suitable to drive headphones or an input to an amplifier. The level won't drive speakers without an additional amplifier so it should not be connected to speaker connections. If an amplifier is available, use a lead with a 1/8th inch jack to RCA connectors and feed the signal to the amplifier. Then take the speaker outputs from the amplifier into the wall connectors that run to the speakers.


Do you connect speakers to receiver or amplifier?

Depends on what your definition of "receiver" is, but most of the time - to the amplifier. Consider: if the receiver is some form of a device that receives some signal, and then decodes it to audio, then the receiver will hook into the amplifier, which in turn will drive the speakers (so the speakers go to the amplifier) if, on the other hand, the receiver is a part of a wireless connection between the amplifier and speaker, then it really serves the role of a cable, so in essence you're again connecting the speakers to an amplifier (only using the receiver as an intermediary) You would have to specify your case.
