On the extreme left, "sparky", to the right of him is Papa Pass. I'm in the yellow T-shirt.
Of course you need a "land yacht" for decor

Looks very well set-up. Yes Mark I recognise you even from a distance ;-)
If we do it this side of the pond we'd have to do it indoors.
I was thinking of a (technical) school - they would have the space and facilities and stuff. Hmm.

My hat off again for a very generous NP!

Excuse my previous post. Just noticed the 'store' - will keep an eye out for the Amp Camp Amp pcb.

That’s me and my daughter in #58 of this string. We loved amp camp! We arrived as complete beginners, learned from a great team of experienced people, and walked away with a pair of amps and the sure understanding that we are, in fact, complete beginners. Now we are looking for recommendations for a beginner-level set of speakers to build for my daughter’s dorm room. The room has painted concrete walls and ceiling. It measures 18'1" long by 11'4" wide with a 57"x57" window centered in the rear wall. The floor is covered with very low pile carpet. Furniture includes two beds, two desks, and all the stuff of two sophomore college soccer players. This turns out to be a lot of stuff. And, it is most often distributed around the room in a fashion which exemplifies the concept of entropy. A plan of the room can be found at:

She and her roommate listen to a wide range of music including rock, hip-hop, country and show tunes. We would like a design that: 1) takes advantage of the Amp Camp amps. 2) fits in her crowded dorm room. And, 3) can be mocked up at home and shipped in parts to school for final assembly with simple tools.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

and it is for use with the camp amp?
maybe some "smal" fullrange horns or transmissionline and a sub?

soldersucker · 7th July 2012, 01:48 AM

Yes, were looking for something that pairs well with the camp amp.

I sent the Amp Camp Amp article to a friend interested in building their first DIY project.
He's interested in building it. Keep us up to date on boards. Thanks.

Just to clarify one thing:
Does this amp not need psu caps betixt it and the 'walwart'?
Cant wait for the boards, any knowledge as to when?

mindutis · 7th July 2012, 11:21 AM

As about boards...

Do i see a connection between one of the pins of P1 to the minus pin of output cap?

cochleus · 7th July 2012, 02:10 PM

Yes I see that. P1 should connect on other side of R3/R4 according to schem.
