[sdiy] Book Recommendations

I would also encourage you to become a member of the Audio Engineering Society (AES)

Once you become a member, all journal articles and conference papers are free to
download as PDFs.

Once you are a member, I would recommend reading all of Bill Whitlock's papers and video
presentations (which are available at the AES website) concerning proper grounding and
high performance audio interfaces and interconnects. Everyone needs to understand
what balanced audio really is (and it isn't two signals 180 degrees out of phase)

Cheers,

Jeff

I highly recommend the revised hardcover edition of the following by Thomas Frederiksen:

Intuitive Operational Amplifiers: From Basics to Useful Applications (McGraw-Hill series in intuitive IC electronics)

Thomas worked by Bob Pease at National Semiconductor and designed the LM324 and the LM3900.
