Timbre - the quality of a sound related to its harmonic
structure. Timbre is what gives a voice or instrument its
sonic signature — why a trumpet and a saxophone sound
different when they play the same note.
Three-way - a type of speaker system composed of three
ranges of speakers, specifically a woofer, midrange, and tweeter.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) - the percentage,
in relation to a pure input signal, of harmonically derived
frequencies introduced in the sound reproducing circuitry
and hi-fi equipment (including speakers).
Transient Response - the ability of a speaker to respond
to any sudden change in the signal without blurring (smearing)
the sound. A speaker that can react quickly to rapid changes
in sound has “good transient response”.
Treble (highs) - the upper end of the audio spectrum
reproduced by tweeters, usually 3-4kHz and up.
Tweeter - a speaker designed to reproduce the high
or treble range of the sound spectrum.
Two-way - a type of speaker system composed of two
ranges of speakers, usually a woofer and tweeter.
