Hi Kristinn, In the strictess sense of the word a sound board is a transducer--it can not *add* energy. In an audio ampliphier a small signal is used to control a larger one and energy is *added*. A sound board takes a large signal from the string, absorbs some of it (heat, friction, impedance mismatch, etc.) and then transmits the remainder of the signal to the air. I do agree we can hear it better than a string. *grin* At 12:52 AM 01/25/2001 +0000, you wrote: >Hi Tony, > >Since it started oscillating and moving air. > > >Best regards > >Kristinn > > > > >At 09:26 25.1.2001 +0930, you wrote: >>Hi Del, >> >>since when has a soundboard been an amplifier ? >> >>Tony Caught >> >>- > > > Regards, Don Rose, B.Mus., A.M.U.S., A.MUS., R.M.T., R.P.T.
