A low-level AM transmitter performs amplitude modulation early in the transmitter circuit, near the oscillator and buffer amplifier stages, where power levels are low. A high-level AM transmitter performs amplitude modulation in the final power amplifier stage, where higher power levels allow for greater transmission efficiency but limit the modulation to AM. Both approaches have advantages - low-level transmitters can produce different modulation types but are less efficient, while high-level transmitters are more efficient but restricted to AM modulation. The document discusses the components, signal paths, and operation of both low-level and high-level AM transmitter circuits.

This document discusses three key factors in selecting an appropriate amplifier power for loudspeakers: 1) A loudspeaker's power handling rating indicates its limit before damage, but does not correspond to the optimal amplifier size. 2) The appropriate amplifier size depends on required sound levels and audio signal types. As a rule of thumb, twice the loudspeaker's power rating allows reproduction of peaks. 3) Preventing loudspeaker damage depends more on proper system operation than on amplifier sizing alone.
