I have have very recently gotten intrested in making my self a speaker amp, one of the main reasons was that I didn't want to spend more than £100 on an amp. I am not to bothered how it looks. I don't want it to hiss but I am not an audiophile. I am a beginner so it needs to be fairly simple.

Hello TomJ.
Either you can use TDA2050 (search on that keyword, here at forum)
or some other Power Amp IC.
It is real simple. But can sound very good!

Or you can start learning the basic constructions
with Transistors.
A great learning place is Rod Elliot's Site:
ESP - Elliots Sound Projects
/halo - didn't know a thing when he started

Look at the GainClone thread. Especially the "Not Another GainClone" one. You'll find some design inspiration from Peter D. and some others. Schematics and mods suggestions are included throughout the thread.
It's probably the simplest Amp you'll find here and it sounds quite very nice
Don't forget to use a 2X24Volts transformer if you wish to get those 50Watts.
'Hope this helps !
