Need an Idea for new project

Nates · 5th August 2004, 02:31 PM

I'm looking to start a new project (I've now built a couple of really small boring amps at home). I would like my new amp to have 2 channels and run at around 50-75WRMS. The speakers they will be powering are going to probably be a mid priced kit set ($2-300) I'm looking for general simplicity and solid quality. If anyone has any links or search headers that I should try I welcome them. I was going to build a leach but I decided that it is probably going to be way overkill for my current needs (small living room). I'm not great at schematics yet either so any artwork for boards, stuffing diagrams, pics, etc. are greatly appreciated. I did some searches, however if I missed any important but obvious posts I appologize and hope for a reply pointing me in the right direction.

design your own.... check out circuit topologies that work, and create your own circuit

Check out a cross reference guide so you will know the specs of the transistors so you can choose the right types. Once you get the diff. and VAS stages, the rest is pretty straight forward.

always rember... current sources and current mirror type circuits are your friend.

Don't think I'm quite at that level yet. I'm looking for a tried and true design, I was looking at the P3A but I don't want to have to wait for shipping from Australia.
