In the state of North Carolina, every public high school student is required to complete a Graduation Project. In short, its an assignment made up of 1. An 8-10 page paper about whatever subject you choose. 2. A speech to be read aloud to a panel of judges. 3. a product (something tangible thats related to your topic.)
I had a sweet idea today. Why not do my project on audiophilia?!?! Well, not the "disorder" itself, but about the culture instead. I was thinking about a compare and contrast paper touching on the subject of iBuds vs HiFi. My plan is to discuss what makes something HiFi, what makes audiophiles spend a grand or so on a pair of headphones (vs a pair of 5 dollar non-name brand earbuds), and to make a headphone amp for my product.
What are your thoughts on this idea? I would be greatly appreciative if any one would drop comments with information on the subject. Also I have no idea what kind of amp I should make. Unfortunately, I wont be able to get any funds for this product from the state or my school, so I would like to keep it under 50 if I can.
