my first transistor amp

soundNERD · 22nd May 2004, 01:04 PM

i want to build an amp that is actually a challenge. So, rather than a chipamp, i want to build it with transistors.

I have been looking around and found that the MJ15003 and MJ15004 are 20A transistors designed for high power audio. And, i have some of them.

Would this work, and would it be all i need? Also, can somebody help me with a schematic?

Sorry if any of the questions are stupid, im new to this type of amp.

Build either an Elliot P3A, or a Leach Low TIM amp. If it's your first time building with discrete parts, i'd recommend the P3A as it has a lower part count.

Thank you!

I'm going to take a look at those.
