My roommate is a computer engineering major and he has a class project involving fabrication/design. We thought designing an amp would be a good idea to complete the project and get an amp out of it at the same time! However, we don't know which one we should build. Perhaps you can help... here is what we would like to have:
- good power for Sennheiser HD600 (me) and Sennheiser 497 (him)
- small enough to fit into Altoids or Penguin container (seen this before, we both love the concept)
- powered by a wall-wart and/or battery
- crossfeed optional
- project requires (2) IC's
Which DIY amp would fit us best? After reading some stuff on this forum a lot of folks say that using good components makes the unit sound better, but my roommate, who is going to be assembling it, says that the components are all the same and it will be just as good to go to Radio Shack. Whats the best solution?
Thanks in advance,
