I had some questions regarding the parts becuase I wanted to make sure I get the right stuff before I go ahead and order them. The amp will be used for AKG K701's. These are the parts Ive selected so far but please feel free to let me know if I should change them to something else. I want the best sound out of this and the K701 but I don't want to pay hundereds for it. I want to stay pretty close to the standard recommendations but whatever is the BEST POSSIBLE CHOICE, please let me know what to get because I have no clue how electronics work .
For the M3:
1. Trimpots - not sure which ones to get.
2. Resistors - Vishay RN55D
3. Caps - for the electrolytics I've chosen Panasonic FC and for the film, BC MKP.
4. OPamps - AD8065AR as per recommendations.
5. Heatsinks - 1.5". Do I need to get the mounting kits?
6. I wanted to have 2 inputs so what other stuff to I have to get other than a selector swtich? And what kind of selector swtich do I need?
7. Case - Par-Metal 12x8x2.
8. Hook-up wire - how much (length wise) is need?
9. Any other things I missed out?
For the STEPS:
1. I've gotten pretty much everything figured out except the resistors. The recommended values are not listed so can you please let me know which values I need for R1, R2, R3, and R4. Concerning the R4 value, I don't know what the VOUT will be. Sorry Im really electronic illterate but Im just starting out in this hobby.
2. I also dont know if i need 15VA or 25VA tranformer. Does it have anything to do with R4 value?
3. This is a stupid question but if i get a IEC inlet with a fuse holder in it, do also need a on-board fuse on the STEPS?
Thanx for all your help guys. I truly appreaciate it.
