Hello everyone!
My name is Adam and I am posting from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. I find myself here at DIYAudio in pursuit of a fairly specific goal, but already deeply appreciative for this forum, both for its depth as well as its organization and moderation. I have been involved in classic car modification and restoration for a good while now and have always preferred the format of these types of forums as opposed to something like a facebook group. So for that I thank everyone!
I have been an audio enthusiast of some sort or another for quite a while, but never went much further than building custom boxes or clever rigs using off the shelf components (here is a write up on a android head unit I cobbled together).
My current project is a bluetooth audio application, and is more involved than other projects I have undertaken in the past. In short I have a bluetooth module (an mh-m18 to be specific) wired up on perfboard with an isolating dc power supply, volume knob and switch which I would like to install in my vehicle. So far everything seems to have turned out well, except the output of the module is too low (not enough volume). I am looking for a simple way to cleanly boost the line level, keeping in mind I am working in a very tight space (about 25mmx100mmx8mm).
I know this is the introduction forum, so I will limit my tech discussion there and just ask where I should be starting on this site to chase this topic. I have done a good deal of searching/reading on the associated topics but as I am very new a lot is over my head. Any information is always appreciated and I always welcome questions about my project, experience or anything else relevant.
