Harmonic distortion is a type of distortion that occurs in audio amplifiers when the output signal contains additional frequency components that are not present in the input signal. These additional frequency components, called harmonics, are multiples of the fundamental frequency of the input signal and can cause the output signal to deviate from the original waveform. Harmonic distortion can be caused by a variety of factors, including the nonlinear behavior of the amplifier itself, the load being driven by the amplifier, and the presence of noise or other interference in the system. Harmonic distortion can cause the sound produced by the amplifier to be harsh or unpleasant, and it can also affect the accuracy and fidelity of the reproduced audio.
