anyways ,now that is settled
we can get back to
NERUDAS AMP , yaaaay !
OK dude ,so don't sweat the casing either
truth is , a larger case is way easier to work with and you can go smaller once you hone your skills
in fact , damn near every amp I have made is in the Radio Shack 5X5X1 (approx)
it allows enough space for a 1/4 inch jack , a nice big knob and all the switching I need
of course I have also finally done a "tin amp" , just could not resist
and some have gone micro amp (not for me)
so what I am saying is , don't sweat the details
just do it !
*****EDIT*****
BTW folks-Radio Shack in thier infinate wisdom has been gradually discontinuing thier line of project boxes , get 'em before they are gone ,I am stocking up myself
