Hey,

in the near future I'll have to decide for a subject for a task for school. I thought it would be cool to build a (headphone) amplifier but I will have to design the circuit myself. Since I don't know anything at all about electronics and that kind of stuff I wondered if you could give me some advice as where to start?
I want to keep the budget below 60 euro and it must not be too difficult. I do have some soldering and other DIY skills to build the amp but my main problem is learning how to design it.

something like a cmoy?

maybe a basic power supply?

case work... should all keep you busy enough

This is as good a starting point as any for designing a headphone amplifier:

I didn't mean to build a excisting amp, I really have to design the circuit myself otherwise it'll be fraud and my project will be marked insufficient...

Seems like a good site to start in the world of amp building, thanks for the advice!

Looks like I'm not the only newbie on this area
