Re: What i build when i'm not doing power supplies...

Amp's still doing fine if anyone was wondering.

Nice! I'm still using mine as well. All thanks to you, though . Your thread has been a great inspiration and always will be .

However, i feel i shouldn't be offered the option to push close to 2W/ch into my own ears, especially if i'm pissed off and (ever so slightly ) drunk.

2W? Per channel? HOLY SHIT!
2W/ch is quite enough to make even regular bookshelf speakers go plenty loud. I just can't image this with head phones. I bet it will make your ear bleed. Unless you're directing it all in the very low sub-bass range, where the human hearing drops off.

Old sound guys never die- they just become amplitude and bandwidth limited.

The only thing i'll have to change is that cheap pot i used for volume - it's started to crackle when i turn it.

If you look at the graph in the datasheet, that's about what it resolves to with +/-12v supplies and 16 ohm load... and yeah, it's stupid loud. Fortunately, i listened to hip-hop. My hearing's still fine, and my 'phones didn't quit either (using the same ones right now), but they did make my ears feel nice and warm... Not something i'd want to do again very soon though.

EPIC... That's one to remember.
