Hi all let me introduce myself first, my name is Ray and im from Jakarta , Indonesia.
Im studying electrical engineering 4th semester right now :) and i have some interest in (car) audio especially amplifier.
and recently, i take a look an "art" from one of this website member. Mr. David Lumanauw. It's a "beautiful" car amplifier (a handmade SS 4 x 200 W Amps) with a beautiful sound too (i hear it through a 3 way visaton's ribbon tweeters and titanium midrange plus scan speak's 4531 midbasses). hahaha as an electrical engineering student im totally jealous :o :o .
So i decided to make myself an amplifier. but i need some opinion from seniors here...
what type of amps that can make a good start for me?
is it chip amps using LM 3886 (im very interested in carlosfm designs) or should i go with solid state?or is it other type of amps?
im sorry for my bad english and im sorry for my stupid questions.
im waiting for the replies :)
thanks all :) |

Hi Ray and welcome to the forums. I can't help you with the amp but I'm wondering if you might want to post this in amplifiers as well so more people will see it.

Welcome Ray,
A chip amp would be a perfect place for you to start, Just my opinion... low cost, a little math, some hard thinking, heat sinks & mechanical work,and some good experience with wire and a hot iron.
:D |
