I've started reading through all the DIY threads recently, and the success stories of various first-timers have inspired me to take on a project myself. Well, I'm thinking about it anyway.
I read through Tangent's tutorial and many of his other articles and links, and the whole thing doesn't really seem that complicated. I don't even have any cans that actually need an amp, but damn it, it just looks like fun to build these things!
So then I started thinking. I don't even think I've ever picked up a soldering iron before. I've definitely never done anything positive in my messings-around with various electronics components. My familiarity with with ohms, amps, and volts stems entirely from high school physics classes. Hmm.
Do you really think it's possible for someone with basically no electronics expertise to attempt a project like Tangent's CMoy pocket amp without incurring any major damage to self or surroundings?
Let me know what you think. If I decide to give it a try, I expect lots of help -- I'll be sure to post hi-res pics of my fried components for all to ogle at.
Anyway.
