hi to all, i have been a long time audio fanatic with a fairly large collection of speakers, amps, subs, and all sorts that are forever getting me into trouble with my wife. i have a lot of ideas that are floating around which normally involve recycling some of the gear i have laying about, but i think i have lots to learn about modding.
i have been a member here for a little while, and im taking my first step by looking for advice, and hopefully some expertise. where do i start in the learning chain of electronics, and is it possible for a novice to learn.

probably a huge step to start with, but i have a kenwood krv9080 which has loads of power, but i want to build a power amp using this as a base.

Good : usually is the preamp section that is not adequate; also the electronic input selector is not very good . Less is better
