    It uses numbers to show volume level and abbreviations to help you through mode selections. My only real complaint is the lack of Bluetooth connectivity; you can't use this as a speaker to stream ...

  3. Noise figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_figure

    The noise power from a simple load is equal to kTB, where k is the Boltzmann constant, T is the absolute temperature of the load (for example a resistor), and B is the measurement bandwidth. This makes the noise figure a useful figure of merit for terrestrial systems, where the antenna effective temperature is usually near the standard 290 K ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_artifact

    Statistically, images have more low-frequency than high-frequency content, so it is the low-frequency content that remains after quantization, which results in blurry, low-resolution blocks. In the most extreme case only the DC-coefficient, that is the coefficient which represents the average color of a block, is retained, and the transform ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-noise_block_downconverter

    The low-noise quality of an LNB is expressed as the noise figure (or sometimes noise temperature). This is the signal-to-noise ratio at the input divided by the signal-to-noise ratio at the output. It is typically expressed as a decibels (dB) value. The ideal LNB, effectively a perfect amplifier, would have a noise figure of 0 dB and would not ...

    For example, if your current TV is sitting on a stand, you'll need to make sure it's large enough — and solid enough to support the weight. (As noted above, an 85-inch TV can tip the scales at ...

  7. Noise reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction

    Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from a signal. Noise reduction techniques exist for audio and images. Noise reduction algorithms may distort the signal to some degree. Noise rejection is the ability of a circuit to isolate an undesired signal component from the desired signal component, as with common-mode rejection ratio.

  8. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    It is often possible to reduce the noise by controlling the environment. Internal electronic noise of measurement systems can be reduced through the use of low-noise amplifiers. When the characteristics of the noise are known and are different from the signal, it is possible to use a filter to reduce the noise.

  9. Listener fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Listener_fatigue

    Symptoms include tiredness, discomfort, pain, and loss of sensitivity. Listener fatigue is not a clinically recognized state, but is a term used by many professionals. The cause for listener fatigue is still not yet fully understood it is thought to be an extension of the quantifiable psychological perception of sound. Common groups at risk of ...
