Okay, well, worked on the thing for a while. Not going too badly, considering that the jumpers were my first soldering project ever. The first two took a while, then started to get the hang of it. Only burned myself occaisionally.
So anyway, I think I need some clarification before I screw things up. All I've done so far is the power supply. Take a look at my progress. Okay, I know I'm not getting any style points, but will it work? (By the way, tangent, the link you provide to the "power supply schematic" is broken.)
Anyway, after reading though tangent and cmoy's articles a few times, I'm still confused about how to set up the LED. If anyone can post some pics, I'd appreciate it. (I haven't decided what kind of case I'm putting it in yet, but probably a mint tin.) Do I need an LED cover thing an some insulated wires here that I'm missing? And, tangent, do you have your amp hooked up to dual 9V batteries in the photos, or is there another wire I'm missing?
Also, I'm going to be using this amp with low-impedance cans, Grado SR-80 and Sony MDR-V6, primarily. Any extra resistors you suggest I throw in or anything?
Okay, I'll have more questions as I get to the components that are actually difficult to install, I'm sure. Having fun so far, thanks everyone for the help.
