Hello,
Firstly I'll try to describe the situation:)
I am not diy'er and my soldering skills aren't great (shame),
I actually asked a fellow audiophile (actually thanks to Ali - thank you sir) I've found someone who can solder for me.
I am sound engineer and since I've found info about LDR att. I decided I would like to try it,
Long story short - a friend is building for me LDR, but with few extra addons which will be perfect solution for my studio
Those addons are extra 2 selectable inputs and 1 extra out (default for subwoofer).
I thought that it would be great idea to fit into this set up a diy class A HP amp.
The gentleman who's building this (possibly a member of this forum) has knowledge about super hifi tube HP amps, but I need sth. not so expensive (up to 100,- pounds), little (so I can fit it inside LDR box) and solid state,
now getting to the point :)
I did some research in area of diy HP class A (solid state), but becasue I am not electronic, neither I know diy 'jargon', it just made my head to throbble:scratch:
After some analysis (time and money are important too) I got to the conclusion that this :
http://rockgrotto.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=m&action=display&thread=5958
could be great option
You could purchase all elements and PCB from ebay seller, it's relatively very cheap, and apparently produces great sound ( this is very important to me)
Anyway thos diy'ers mention that this construction has some issues, and needs to be improved...:( - and explanation in in ancient egyptian language for me:scratch:
I am asking here all diy'ers who has experience with building headphone amp,
class A (solid state) to advice /support me
I am after as much transparent sound as it possible - the unit will be for critical listening, that's the reason I am not after tubes (besides the costs and size of tube pcb) but solid state
PS . sorry for my 'englishhzz' - it's not my first language
thank you in advance and wish everyone great weekend!
