Faust2D.

Glad to see old style p2p amp, which is very rare in these days.
Oh... you said your friend made it for you?
He must be very knowledgable person with great amount of love in him.
You must be a lucky guy. It is not easy to have an amp like that.
I couild give out amps that made with PCB, but I ain't gonna give out my handcrafted p2p amp to anyone else even if a person is willing to pay 10 times price for that, unless I really value him as he deserves something like that.

Thanks Seaside! I like this amp a lot. P2p with JFET transistors was a hard thing to do as far as I know It's a pure class A design with local feedback only. Works great with my speakers as well as with my headphones, but I use another amp for headphones most of the time since this amp was made for my speaker rig and the headphones part is kinda a bonus.

My first DIY amp, an Altoid CMOY. It was my first time soldering too. Things didn't go to bad until I tried to put it in the case. I couldn't get the volume pot in the right position. After a couple minutes, I forced it in, but in doing so, something shorted. Check several points, but I couldn't find the source. I had to yank the whole thing back out. Turns out it was the black wire on the back; one of the ends came loose. All in all, it's nice to see it working.

Well, it looks better than my first try... user18, don't believe these guys when they say solder fumes are addictive. I've been building for two years now and I can stop any time I want to...

Yes, I agree! Most people take the easy way out and only put one battery in. It takes some special skill and determination to get two 9V's in a CMoy mint tin. It will sound better that way for most applications and will power a top-of-the-line Sennheiser fairly well. Good job!
