Hello All
I am building a combined ARC5 receiver power supply and audio amplifier.
I would like to know more about the audio output from an un-modified ARC-5 family receiver.
What is the intended output impedance? 600 Ohms?
What is the audio output power/ I know a ARC5 receiver can drive an 8 Ohm speaker with low to moderate volume if a matching transformer is used. I think this means the audio power output is something like 50 mW or lower.
What is the audio voltage when operating into its intended ( headphone?) load.
I need this information in order to properly terminate the receiver audio out line and to set the gain of the audio amplifier i am adding to drive a conventional speaker.
I do not have a functional receiver to test, that is why i am building the power supply.
Thank you for your assistance....bruce kj3z
