http://ruggedcircuits.com/html/ancp01.html Haven't destroyed it yet, but this is good to know!

Use a sledgehammer, fire a bullet at it, throw it into a pool....thats not what were talking about. Were going to show you how to electrically destroy your Arduino, though many of you seem to already know how to do that through unfortunate experience. You know what we mean....that funny smell, th…

Electrical engineers, especially the ones who design recording equipment, can prove that these is no difference in tube or transistor sound. They do this by showing the latest specification sheets and quoting electronic figures which are visually quite impressive. It is true, according to the parame...

Do you really need an anechoic chamber to measure loudspeakers? No. You just need a big enough room, and the ability to ignore the earliest reflections (it's called sample windowing.) Suspending a speaker 20 feet in the air in a field will let you measure down to 100Hz without any issues!

Ever wonder why sound recording engineers call 400Hz the 'boxy' range?

Sound travels at about 1000ft/s; so, you'd need a box about 2.5 feet long by 2.5 feet wide to get a resonance at 400Hz. Try sticking your head in a box the next time you're listening to some music: I promise it will sound awful!
