Zvikamu zveaudio zvinogona kukamurwa kuita chikamu cheaudio source (signal source), chikamu chepower amplifier uye chikamu chespeaker kubva muhardware.

Kwakabva odhiyo: Kwakabva odhiyo ndiyo nzvimbo inobva odhiyo, uko kunobva ruzha rwekupedzisira rwemutauri. Manzwi anowanzo shandiswa ndeaya: maCD player, maLP vinyl player, madigital player, maradio tuners nezvimwe zvishandiso zvekutamba odhiyo. Midziyo iyi inoshandura kana kubvisa masaini eaudio mumidziyo yekuchengetera kana maredhiyo kuita masaini eanalog audio kuburikidza nekushandura digital-to-analog kana demodulation output.

Simba remagetsi: Simba remagetsi rinogona kukamurwa kuita chikamu chepamberi nechikamu chekumashure. Chikamu chepamberi chinogadzirisa chiratidzo kubva kunobva ruzha, kusanganisira asi kwete kungogumira pakuchinja kwekupinda, kuwedzera kwekutanga, kugadzirisa toni nezvimwe zvinhu. Chinangwa chayo chikuru ndechekuita kuti kupindira kwesimba remagetsi kubva kunobva ruzha uye kupindira kwesimba remagetsi kubva kuchikamu chekumashure kuenderane nekuderedza kukanganiswa, asi chikamu chepamberi hachisi chinhu chinodiwa zvachose. Chikamu chekumashure ndechekuwedzera simba resimba remagetsi kubva kuchikamu chepamberi kana kuti chikamu chenzwi kuti chifambise system yezwi kuti ibudise ruzha.

Sipika (spika): Zvishandiso zvedhiraivha zvesipika iyi itransducer yemagetsi-acoustic, uye zvikamu zvese zvekugadzirisa masaini zvinogadziriswa kuti zvisimudzirwe nesipika. Sipika yemagetsi inosimudzira simba inofambisa koni yepepa kana diaphragm kuburikidza nemagetsi, piezoelectric kana electrostatic effects kuti ifambise mhepo yakapoteredza kuti iite ruzha. Sipika ndiyo terminal yehurongwa hwese hweruzha.
