Audio frequency amplifiers are used to amplify signals in the range of human hearing that approximately 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Some Hi-Fi audio amplifiers extend this range up to around 100 kHz ranges while other audio amplifiers may restrict the high frequency limit to 15 kHz or less.

Which amplifier is used for audio frequency?
Ultrasonic amplifiers amplify the ultrasonic waves. These are in the frequency range of around 20 kHz up to about 100 kHz. They are used for specific purposes such as ultrasonic cleaning, ultrasound scanning, remote control systems etc. Each type will operate at narrow band of frequencies within the ultrasonic range.
How does audio amplifier work?
An amplifier takes an input signal from a source, such as a laptop, turntable or CD player, and creates a larger copy of the original signal before it's sent to the speakers. It gets the power to do this from your mains electricity, which is sent directly to the power supply within the amplifier.
Can amplifier increase frequency?
An RF amplifier amplifies signals in the radio frequency range of the electromagnetic spectrum, and is often used to increase the sensitivity of a receiver or the output power of a transmitter. An audio amplifier amplifies audio frequencies.
What are the types of amplifier according to frequency?
According to the Frequency Range | Classification of Amplifiers
- DC (Direct coupled) Amplifiers from zero frequency (dc) onwards.
- Audio Frequency Amplifiers 20 Hz to 20 KHz.
- Video Frequency Amplifiers up-to a few MHz.
- Radio Frequency (RF) Amplifiers from a few KHz to hundreds of MHz.
