It seems like invention of the computer and digital possibilities they came with a changed just about everything especially in the home entertainment world. Music systems resembled furniture, whereas now exceptional audio files come from devices smaller than our hand. Listening to them still requires a sound producing element and M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 speakers provide an excellent output.

While the basic parts and operation of amplifiers has not changed since then the materials and the ability to control them has improved. The receivers, eight track players, reel to reel and other devices were bulky and looked like aircraft modules. That was actually intentional as an intentional style point; having a massive stereo systems meant it had to be good.

Commonly people listen to their music with earphones, tiny speaker buds that produce sound in a more than satisfactory manner. When a pair of 10 dollar earphones produces adequate sound, one might reasonable wonder what the purpose of spending more for sound systems really is. The answer is the tone and feel of the sound, which is affected by the quality of the wave creation.

The human ear functions by way of the membrane known as the eardrum. When air is moved in waves it causes the membrane to vibrate, and this vibration is interpreted by the brain as sound. Amplifiers of any type function by recreating recorded waves which vibrate and activate the eardrum physically. The key to good sound then is the ability to produce waves that activate the tympanic membrane as natural sound does.

Amplifiers for build with different sized vibrating cones so that the frequencies can be produced most efficiently. Woofers have larger cones and I used to create longer frequencies while tweeters are smaller and vibrate faster for shorter frequencies and to ensure the entire spectrum is covered a mid-range cone focuses on the middle frequencies.

The way sound is produced is the same even for tiny amplifiers like earphones, but the tiny oscillating membranes can not reproduce the entire range of sound. It is not true that the larger the amplifier the better the music, but being large enough to cover the audible range of the human ear is important. Beyond the desktop size speakers, however, the only advantage is not better quality, but greater volume.

When it comes to deciding which amplifiers are best for the computer desktop in your home, it depends on your usage. If you are a part time disk jockey or intend to record, you will want a high quality system. For the money, a set of M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 speakers provide professional level quality a reasonable price.
