Amplifiers and other Gear Create Noise?

Music has been integral to human culture from time immemorial. Historically, mechanical amplification's first use was the Edison phonograph in 1857-1877. Siemens, in 1877, was awarded the first loudspeaker patent; an argument for the telephone predating this is viable.  


The first public use of electrified loudspeakers, courtesy of the vacuum tube, was in 1912 at a Chicago water carnival. Magnavox was born.  


In 1915, Bell Labs employees Harold Arnold & E.C. Wente were developing an amplified phonograph system with the following requirements:

  • Tube amplification.
  • Balanced armature speaker and driver
  • Microphone to match the first two requirements.


This Bell Labs creation fueled the flame for amplified sound and music, including tube amplifiers, preamplifiers, realistic-sounding speakers, and the condenser microphone.  


By the 1920s, the world was smitten with amplified sound and music. The global demand for amplification was enormous, spurring innovation with radio, public address, dance halls, and theaters. The quest for high fidelity was born. Scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs around the globe leaped at the opportunity this emerging market created.


 With this public demand arises more technical issues, including viable transatlantic telephone lines. This is where the technology race for discernable amplified sounds began.

Problem Statement

Modern audio sources face a common challenge: delivering music to the listener in its purest form. The transmission lines, also known as cables or conductors, have limitations that can be easily described. For instance, copper conductors have a slower velocity than silver, and the diameter and surface area of the conductor can limit current. However, this only describes the capability of the bare wire. The dielectric, shielding, and bundling can negatively affect the music as readily as the noisy 21st-century environment. 


The question is:

How can we utilize the conductor to its fullest potential, minimizing distortion created by amplification? 


The solution is discovered by examining behaviors and tendencies at the highest frequency down to the electron level as individual points and groups.

Resolution

High-tech cabling allows the unimpeded flow of electrons. It also ensures the electron flow is free from coupling effects, velocity changes, “Speed Bumps” from material imperfections, and frequency-based impediments created by joins of dissimilar metals. 


Differentiating between free random electrons and "herding" anomalies along the signal path is critical for retaining musical content.
