TPA3250 anywhere?

Hi,


I was planning to build the nice little amplifier described by Glenn Zorpette at IEEE Spectrum (Full Page Reload), however as he and others have noted, the 3e-Audio amp module does not seem to be available any longer. I have looked briefly at the long thread on here about amps containing this IC and searched online, but I have seen very little that might work as a good replacement.


Does anyone have suitable ideas for substitution? I am handy with a soldering iron and reading schematics, but I'm not really up to designing things from scratch. And having a decent premade PCB is a must!


Thanks,


Phil

The 3eAudio 3251 boards are readily available, on AliExpress for example. The 3250 and 3251 chips are almost identical...
