| 11. | The damping factor of solid state amplifiers is generally very large and ideal for damping the speakers.
|
| 12. | However, most of these will be improved by lowering output impedance and hence improving damping factor.
|
| 13. | Therefore the choice of different loudspeakers will lead to different damping factors when coupled with the same amplifier.
|
| 14. | With a single pole filter, it is not possible to control the loop frequency and damping factor independently.
|
| 15. | However, some speakers require an amplifier with a low damping factor to reproduce rich, full-bodied sound.
|
| 16. | A properly adjusted damping factor can control this free vibration of the moving structures and improve the sound of the driver.
|
| 17. | Ideally, the natural frequency should be high and the damping factor should be near 0.707 ( critical damping ).
|
| 18. | Typical modern solid-state amplifiers with negative feedback tend to have high damping factors, above 50 and sometimes above 150.
|
| 19. | I need this to figure out its damping factor . Preceding talk ) 03 : 14, 26 November 2012 ( UTC)
|
| 20. | However, the damping factor at any particular frequency will vary, since driver voice coils are complex impedances whose values vary with frequency.
