A quality amp for a newb's home listening

TheYurry · 25th April 2011, 11:28 PM

Hi all
I have a power supply (+-16,5 2A toroid) salvaged from a burnout 50W amp and I'd like to build a decent sounding AB class power amp. Do you have any recommendations? I am planning to add a few other widgets to it later like an analog VU meter I've got lying around. Maybe a preamp for an electric guitar. Equalizer, or a little mixer would be nice.
I plan on taking the schematics for the little "accessories" from circuitdiagram.net. And for the amp I was thinking about 2.1 configuration but I guess the supply won't handle that. So just a stereo amp... But I'd like to build the amp on a more proven design, something that wouldn't disappoint my light audiophilic mania

.

P.S. I am quite a newb to this kind of stuff so I'd like to learn something in the process and that's probably the main reason for doing it.

Thanks
TheYurry
