2. Constant-voltage speaker system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Constant-voltage_speaker_system

   Constant-voltage speaker systems are also commonly referred to as 25-, 70-, 70.7-, 100 or 210-volt speaker systems; distributed speaker systems; or high-impedance speaker systems. In Canada and the US, they are most commonly referred to as 70-volt speakers. In Europe, the 100 V system is the most widespread, with amplifier and speaker products ...

3. Damping factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping_factor

   The loudspeaker's nominal load impedance (input impedance) of is usually around 4 to 8 Ω, although other impedance speakers are available, sometimes dropping as low as 1 Ω or 2 Ω. However, the impedance rating of a loudspeaker is simply a number that indicates the nominal minimum impedance of that loudspeaker over a representative portion of ...

4. Audio power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

   A speaker with a higher impedance may have lower measured sensitivity and thus appear to be less efficient than a speaker with a lower impedance even though their efficiencies are actually similar. Speaker efficiency is a metric that only measures the actual percentage of electrical power that the speaker converts to acoustic power and is ...

5. Powered speakers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powered_speakers

   An active full-range loudspeaker. Powered speakers, also known as self-powered speakers and active speakers, are loudspeakers that have built-in amplifiers.Powered speakers are used in a range of settings, including in sound reinforcement systems (used at live music concerts), both for the main speakers facing the audience and the monitor speakers facing the performers; by DJs performing at ...

6. Thiele/Small parameters - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiele/Small_parameters

   The auditory threshold is taken to be 10 –12 W/m 2 (which corresponds to a pressure level of 20×10 −6 Pa). Therefore a speaker with 100% efficiency would produce an SPL equal to 10log(0.159155/10 –12), which is 112.02 dB. The SPL at 1 metre for an input of 1 watt is then: dB (1 watt) = 112.02 + 10·log()

7. L pad - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L_pad

   The L pad attenuates the signal by having two separate rheostats connected in an "L" configuration (hence the name). One rheostat is connected in series with the loudspeaker and, as the resistance of this rheostat increases, less power is coupled into the loudspeaker and the loudness of sound produced by the loudspeaker decreases.

8. Speaker wire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speaker_wire

   A speaker wire's impedance takes into account the wire's resistance, the wire's path, and the dielectric properties of local insulators. The latter two factors also determine the wire's frequency response. The lower the impedance of the speaker, the greater a significance the speaker wire's resistance will have. Where large buildings have long ...

9. Electrodynamic speaker driver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodynamic_speaker_driver

   All speaker drivers have a means of electrically inducing back-and-forth motion. Typically there is a tightly wound coil of insulated wire (known as a voice coil) attached to the neck of the driver's cone. In a ribbon speaker, the voice coil may be printed or bonded onto a sheet of very thin paper, aluminum, fiberglass or plastic.
