Suggested Reading and Advice

[Dave Frattaroli]

I'd like to get into amp building and was wondering if anyone here could suggest some reading material regarding the subject or electronics in general. Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks

Dave

Check out the links given at the diyaudio home page.
www.sound.au.com is probably the best place to start.
Also www.passdiy.com, and (I think) www.borbelyaudio.com.
Finally, hang out here a lot.

Just making sure you caught my edits too.

Douglas Self's website and books offer a good look at the "traditional" way to build power amps, line stages, etc.:

In case you have missed my rantings earlier this week, find "Troubleshooting Analog Circuits" by Bob Pease. He doesn't like subjective audio, but he is brilliant, and everyone here can learn something from it.

No, I don't get a commission. Or even a "thank you".

There was a previous thread about this that you should look up. Good reading.
