5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent and useful book for the beginner., 26 Dec 1998
By A Customer
As a novice in the field of sound reinforcement, I found this book invaluable. It clearly explained the how and why of working with audio equipment, discussed the mysteries of studio equipment specifications, and worked through sample installations and the pros and cons of equipment types. Each chapter held new and useful information, from discussions of the different types of "db"s to the delightful chapter on how to select and solder audio cables. I can't recommend this book too highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the faint hearted, 25 Feb 2004
This book is great for the "intermediate" sound engineer. It contains alot of quite technical language so is not for the beginner but once you have the basic technical knowledge its a fantastic tool, especially for trouble shooting and general research.
