    Semi portable headphone AM for PC use.

    Just wanted to report back. My Mouser Box showed up with the rest of the stuff to make my Recharging CMoy BB. It took me about an hour to re-check my parts list and get it all soldered up. This was my first time soldering a PCB, second time soldering so there was a bit of a "learning curve". The...

    Quote: yea, I figured finding replacments was what was needed. But as this is the first project of this caliber its a little difficult tracking down what will work. Most of the stuff on Tangentsoft is WAY over my head, but I'm learning.   Another update. JDSLabs, Digikey and the privet...

    Semi portable headphone AM for PC use.

    Thought I would post back on progress. I have been making a (sad) attempt to track down all the parts for my PEMITAv2 project. A good portion of the stuff listed on Tangentsoft.net are no longer offered for sale. I have been almost raging to try find everything and lastnight I decided "Screw IT"...

    "His and Her's" earbuds help.

    Quote: Your not late at all, I'm looking up review's of them now, but I'm not sure I like that price tag on buds. Quote: IEM's are more what I'm looking at. But if price's right bud's are not out of the question.

    "His and Her's" earbuds help.

    Well I wanted to thank you all very much. I have just placed an order for some new phones. Hers: Black Skull Candy Ink'd(no mic). She tried a friends and liked them a lot. His: undecided. Her Clip+ power's the Ink'd SC's well, and have enough bass for her.   I'm still browsing my...

    "His and Her's" earbuds help.

    Quote: ok, I'm kind of digging the RE-0's for myself, would they do better with a small amp? or would the little clip be enough. Quote: the review's seem great, but the color's uck! and the flat cord seems weird for my over the ear taste's. I'll see if I cannot find some locally to...

    "His and Her's" earbuds help.

    I need some decent cheap earbuds to replace our old ones. We are still using the Stock Earbuds that came with our galaxy tab's(7.0+) for our MP3 players and when we travel. We both think they sound alright but she's sick of them and I hated the way they fit.. I just cannot get a seal with them...

    Review by 'SoundOfKhaos' on item 'Monoprice MHP-839'

    For the price these are perfect headphones, all of the cons are very easy to over look at $20+ Shipping. I think everyone should have a pair, even non audiophiles! They would make perfect back up or travel cans.   The fit is alright, the top of the headband is a little hard after long use...

    Quote:   What do those magic words translate too? I have not yet built a Pimeta, so I don't understand how that translate's to this.   do you mean to replicate the "trickle charger" part of the pimeta on a bread board or similar? Sorry for the silly questions :(

    DIY USB Charger (Can even charge an iPad)

    Silly question probably but: if a recharable battery was used would you have to remove the batteries to charge it?

    Ok, so from the sound of it, the PIMETA v2 would be great! the first thing I want to sort out is the power supply. So here is what I have figured out so far, please interject if I'm going in the wrong direction. Keep in mind this is my first headphone amp of any kind ever.     So I'm reading...

    Sweet thanks. I have read his guide a few times. I'm going to read over it and start making up a parts list. I'm sure that I will have some silly questions here and there but it seems to be straight forward enough. Thanks for the luck, I just might need it!

      Hey guys, been a member for a while. I have been looking to get into DIY audio for a while now. I thought my first project would be a CMOY. After tossing the idea around I decided that a CMOY, while cheap and some what easy to build would be impractical for my uses.      I want a semi...
