NOTE: We made this video to help beginners get a better understanding of speakers and audio. You might find this video redundant and useless if you already know the basics of audio. If this sounds like you, please move on and watch some of the more complex videos on this channel.

So, you just found out that an amplifier needs to be connected to your speaker to hear the sound, but how does it all work? Is the amplifier a necessary component to your audio system?

Watch and find out as we dig in deeper into the world of amplifiers. In this video, we discuss:

How an amplifier is actually a circuit board.
How an amplifier changes the signal from a power supply to allow you to hear sound from your speakers.
Are all amplifiers created equally or is there a difference in quality?
How the amplifier works to make the speaker louder.
How many amplifiers can a surround receiver have?
How the receiver numbering system works.
