Description: An Fm radio is tuned to a vacant channel, so that only white noise is heard. The output of the radio is then connected to an amplifier which in turn is connected to two speakers. With the speakers connected in phase they are positioned facing each other and close together. When the cable polarity of one speaker is reversed, the speakers are no longer in phase the sound level is dramatically reduced. |

| Copyright © 2000 | Instructions:The output of an FM radio tuned to a vacant channel and is connected to the AUX input or our Realistic amplifier. Two speakers are connected to the amplifier's 8 ohm output making sure that the polarity is the same for both speakers. It is best to adjust the volume using only the Master Volume control on the amplifier. The radio's volume and the AUX and Equalizer slider controls sould be at maximum. With the radio already tuned to a vacant channel, the instructor adjusts the volume to an appropriate level. The speakers, which are initially facing the class, are then turned towards each othe and put very close together. The sound from the speakers is then put out of phase switching the polarity of the cables connected to one speaker. Dramatically the sound is reduced. While still out of phase the instructor should gradually rotate the speakers towards the class. A sound similar to the roar of a jet engine can be heard as first higher frequencies (shorter wavelengths) and then lower ones escape cancellation. | |||
