How do guitarists produce distortion without pedals?

Most guitar amplifiers have distortion channels built-in. Typically a foot-switch is used to switch from "distortion" to "clean".


What is a class c amplifier?

A class A amplifier is an amplifier where the bias current in all amplifier stages, including the power amplifier, always exceeds the maximum output current. This leads to a very high energy consumption (and cooling might become a problem), but eliminates crossover distortions. Typical commercial amplifiers are what is called class A/B amplifiers, meaning, they would use a pretty high bias current to eliminate crossover distortions, but the bias current would still be less than the maximum output current to reduce the energy waste and cooling problems associated with pure class A amplifiers.


What are the key design parameters for audio amplifiers?

Frequency response, gain, noise, and distortion


What is meant by crossover distortion in power amplifiers?

Crossover distortion is a type of distortion which is caused by switching between devices driving a load, most often when the devices (such as a transistor) are matched. It is most commonly seen in complementary, or "push-pull", Class-B amplifier stages, although it is occasionally seen in other types of circuits as well


What is an AF amplifier?

AF means audio frequency. Audio Amplifiers can be subgrouped as voltage amplifiers (or pre-amplifiers) and power amplifiers. The voltage amplifier will raise the level of level of the output of a microphone from say 1 mV to 500mV or 1V. The power amplifier will be the interface between this and the load, which is a speaker. The resistance of the speaker is often 4 ohm or 8 ohm. You cannot have a speaker with 1k as resistance! As such to get say 8W output, an amplifier providing 8V will have to pump 1 amp into an 8 ohm speaker. Thus power amplifiers will have to drive a lot of current into the load. Voltage amplifiers cannot do this. A power amplifier sometimes just has unity voltage gain, but has ability to drive a lot of current into the load. Typical power amplifiers are operated in class B, where for 50% of the signal swing, one transistor provides current, and for the other 50%, the other transistor in a class B provides current into load. Class B amplifiers have cross over distortion, But this can be overcome by pre-biasing, or making the stage operate as class AB. The power amplifiers can also be used to power low resistance loads such as a step up transformer.


What does class D amplification mean?

Class-D amplification is where the amplifiers act as electronic switches.

Do professional power amplifiers work well in home audio?

It will if you have proffessioanal equipment to go with it ( speakers ) the amp has to be around the same wattage of the speaker or you will get distortion


What are the applications of class a power amplifier?

low power linear amplifiers


How can someone sell their Class D amplifiers?

Someone can sell their Class D amplifiers by putting a listing up on eBay or Amazon. Amazon is the best choice because your item will be more likely to sell.


What is the class of amplifier operation is used in almost all high-quality audio power amplifiers?

A: class a


Which class of amplifier have maximum distortion?

Class C since output cycle is less than 90 degrees for a full input. But it has highest power gain going upto 98%. And the exact term used for distortion is Total Harmonic Distortion since the distortion produced will be in multiples of the fundamental frequencies.
