I’m trying to bone up on basic electronics, specifically audio amplifiers, and I understand how the power supply operates, but do not understand what kind of ‘power’ (i.e. dc, ac, alternating dc, etc) comes out of the amplifiers output stage to the speakers...
A buddy of mine says ‘alternating current’ but since the output stage gets its power from the power supply (VDC) what is the source of the alternating current??....and IF this is correct, why does the power supply bother to provide dc only to the output stage?
My thinking is that what actually feeds the speakers is a form of alternating DC current from the output stage, but need ‘basic clarification’ only, thanks
