Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Audio Electronics (But Were Afraid to Ask) May 30, 2012 12:45 60 Comments

Everything you always wanted to know about electronics

Thanks for all the awesome questions! Stay tuned for the podcast.

One of the biggest obstacles for entry into the DIY community is that most of us arrive here from a music, not electronics background. We've all been there: you're planning your next DIY project and the documentation casually tells you to "bias the transistor." In that moment, very few of us want to be the one to ask, "umm.... what's biasing?" Well, now is your chance to ask all of those audio electronics questions you never found the right moment to ask! On Saturday, 6/9/2012 I'll be recording a podcast with a real live EE who has volunteered to answer your questions. Please post your questions in the comments section by Friday, 6/8 and we'll try to answer as many of them as we can. No question is too dumb or too complex to ask.
