First off - sorry if this is in the wrong place... Debated between amps and here - but I thought this would probabaly be best...
Anyways - so I'm building Guzzler's USB DAC - and now I just found out that it's output is a line out, not a headphone out
Anyways - so I would like to build a simple headphone amp. But just because I like to make things complicated, I'd like to have it run off the USB power supply, the same supply the USB DAC will be running off of. Guzzler said this would be a problem - that I would need an AC coupled design... Not that I know what that is
Anyways - so I should mention my capabilities I guess - I'm a second year EE student and have a large amount of experience with digital circuits - but next to none with analog audio circuits
Guzzler's USB DAC is my first diy audio project. I can solder anything you put in front of me. I can have any dual sided board milled for me (one of the nice things about being a student and having the right connections).
So - does anybody have any suggestions? I'd prefer not to spend over $50 or so on it...
