raid517 Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 Hi I need help to design and build a small portable audio amplifier for use with an iPod and high quality headphones. The problem is the amp I need is not just any portable amp - what I need a portable amp with some fairly new and unique customisations.The problem is I am not an expert in building high quality audio equipment. So I have come to this forum in the ardent hope that I can find someone who is able to help.At the very least I would like to commission someone to build this amp for me. I can give them very exact specifications and the amp should be relatively easy to build - since it uses a lot of pre-existing technology. This could and might only be the full extent of any relationship. Further if the Amp should prove innovative enough and if I can come up with a convincing and exiting enough design for it, I might like to take a crack at marketing the amp to a large manufacturer. But that is neither here nor there for the moment. I don't want to scare anyone off by making them feel that I am enticing them into some kind of business deal. All I need right now is for someone to help me actually build the amp - and then if they are interested perhaps we might talk about the possibility of taking the design further in a more formal way. (If they are not interested in taking it further, I might opt to try to do so myself).Is there anyone on these forums who feels they are suitably qualified to help? To be absolutely clear - all I need is someone who is highly skilled and who is capable of making the kind of high quality tobacco tin type amps I have read about frequently on several audio emthusiasts forums in the past and - who has good medium to advanced electronics electronic engineering skills and who also has the capability of producing really very high quality work. I am preferably looking for someone to assist me in the UK - but anywhere in Europe, or the world is perfectly OK too.Any assistance anyone can offer would be very much appreciated.GJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Hi Raid,Welcome to our forum. ;DAren't you from another web forum?Another headphones amp. Made with a lot of pre-existing technology.You say it has some fairly new and unique customisations and is innovative. That's what all maketing people say, it is even written on the can of soup I ate for lunch!The many "tobacco tin" Headbanger amps work fine and are popular.Sorry, your secrets aren't exciting enough for me to want to build yours. ::) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
