The audio amplifier is at the heart of audio design. Its performance determines largely the performance of any audio system. John Linsley Hood is widely regarded as the finest audio designer around, and pioneered design in the post-valve era. His mastery of audio technology extends from valves to the latest techniques. This is John Linsley Hood's greatest work yet, describing the milestones that have marked the development of audio amplifiers since the earliest days to the latest systems. Including classic amps with valves at their heart and exciting new designs using the latest components, this book is the complete world guide to audio amp design. John Linsley Hood is responsible for numerous amplifier designs that have led the way to better sound, and has also kept up a commentary on developments in audio in magazines such as The Gramophone, Electronics in Action and Electronics and Wireless World. He is also the author of The Art of Linear Electronics and Audio Electronics published by Newnes.

Audio IC Users Handbook

A vast range of audio and audio-associated ICs are readily available for use by design engineers and technicians. This handbook is a comprehensive guide to the most popular and useful of these devices, including about 370 circuits with diagrams. It deals with ICs such as low frequency linear amplifiers, dual pre-amplifiers, audio power amplifiers, charge coupled device delay lines, bar-graph display drivers, and power supply regulators. It shows how to use these devices in circuits ranging from simple signal conditioners and filters to complex graphic equalisers, stereo amplifier systems, and echo/reverb delay line systems. Not only does this Handbook contain a huge collection of circuits using state-of-the-art and readily available ICs, but also it gives a thorough grounding in theoretical information relating to the various aspects of modern audio systems and to various dedicated types of audio ICs. Newnes Circuits Manuals and User's Handbooks by Ray Marston cover a wide range of electronics subjects in an easy-to-read and non-mathematical manner, presenting the reader with many practical applications and circuits. They are specifically written for the practising design engineer, technician, and the experimenter, as well as the electronics students and amateur. The ICs and other devices used in the practical circuits are modestly priced and readily available types, with universally recognised type numbers. Ray Marston has proved, through hundreds of circuits articles and books, that he is one of the leading circuit designers and writers in the world. He has written extensively for Popular Electronics, Electronics Now, Electronics and Beyond, Electronics World, Electronics Today International and Electronics Australia, amongst others. Other books by Ray Marston from Newnes include:Modern CMOS Circuits ManualPower Control Circuits ManualModern TTL Circuits ManualElectronic Alarm Circuits ManualOptoelectronics Circuits ManualInstrumentation and Test Gear Circuits ManualDiode, Transistor and FET Circuits ManualTimer/Generator Circuits ManualElectronic Circuits Pocket Library in 3 volumes:Linear IC Pocket Book (Vol 1)Passive and Discrete Circuits Pocket Book (Vol 2)Digital Logic IC Pocket Book (Vol 3)

High Performance Audio Power Amplifiers

Power amplifiers and their performance lie at the heart of audio engineering and provide some challenging problems for the engineer. Ben Duncan's experience, as an audio consultant, analog electronics designer and author, give him an unique insight into this difficult but rewarding field. Linking analog electronics, acoustics, heat and music technology; high-end hi-fi and professional PA and recording studio use; theory, modelling and real-world practice; design and repair; the old and the new, the mainstream and the specialised, this comprehensive guide to power amps is a core reference for anyone in the industry, and any interested onlookers. Ben Duncan is well known to many users of audio power amplifiers around the world, both professional and domestic, through his articles, reviews and research papers on music technology in the UK and US press, and through his part in creating several notable professional power amplifiers. Since 1977, he has been involved in the design of over 70 innovative, high-end audio products used by recording and broadcast studios, on stages, in clubs and by the most critical domestic listeners - as well as creating bespoke equipment for top musicians. Born in London, he has travelled widely but has lived mainly in Lincolnshire, home of his family for over 150 years. He is twice co-author of the book Rock Hardware in which he has chronicled the history of rock'n'roll PA. Reprinted with corrections September 1997

Each of the projects in this collection of data files provides a 'building block' which constructors can use to experiment with components and use as a starting point for further development. This book will thus provide a toolkit for building audio systems and circuits based on readily available components using straightforward techniques.Maplin staff are experienced providers of project ideas with useful features and many applications. Each of the circuits in this book are based around readily available chips, and provide an excellent way to become familiar with the characteristics of the chip as well as providing construction details for useful projects. Each includes pinouts and pin designations, output waveforms, parts lists, circuit diagrams, PCB layouts and photographs of the boards. The projects described in this book are based on those appearing in the popular Data Files feature in Electronics, the Maplin Magazine.
