If you google "Headphone amplifier kit" you will find plenty of kits- some with suitable boxes included or as options, but first you need to set some specifications for your needs. What is you intended use, and what will be your input sources? Headphones come in a variety of impedances, fr...

Unfortunately Ikea has discontinued those massive beech countertops that were perfect for workbenches..... There are some 38mm - presumably oak...

These should do... must be available from most US electric suppliers... maybe even your local electrician..

One of the problems in speaker design, is that you can make almost all the wrongs there are, but unless you make a dead electrical short there will always be sound. If it sounds good is another story. MDF is commonly used in most commercial designs from cheap to very expensive, although some audioph...

One can use linear pots with resistors between one or both outer lugs to modify the taper, but it requires some calculations and experimenting....
An Excel sheeet with 10% stepping of the linear value and the parallelled resistors will give a indication of the curve.....

why, - when you already have the soprano sax basically in the same tonal range as the B clarinet?

Google for suppliers of Jun-Air compressors..... probably pricey also in the US, but quiet, quiet......

That will work, of course, and is commonly used in stomp boxes, but the OP suggests using both tip and ring as signal...

Just a suggestion - I'd leave the 'ring' open, - not Connected. If someone by accident inserted a mono Jack into the socket, it would short circuit the signal.

I'm in... Merry X-mas...

The wide-ish stuff is 0.954" or 24.23mm - could someone at 3M just make up their mind here?? This dimension was obviously decided upon by committee. It's not 1" - can't offend the metric (most of the) world It's not 24 or 25mm - can't offend the 'Mericans It's not even a reasonable number...

These are known as engineering unit. Capacitance is measured in Farads, a unit way too large for practical use. Thus 1 uF ( microfarad) = 1000 nF = 1.000.000 pF. 1 mF=1.000 uF, although older components were sometimes marked 1mF=1uF, for lack of a proper micro-sign.... For signal applications, polye...

Hi guys..... I think this is somewhat cultural dependant. Worker titles have long traditions in Norway, for those that have a trade and skills to match. The norwegian term 'fagarbeider', which more or less translates to 'skilled worker', implies that you have a certain education and a certificate to...

Hi folks.... I work for a company with international clients and visitors. For the n'th time in my 38 year career with this company, there is a profile change again, involving logos etc etc , and this time also the name of the main company. We are a rather diverse bunch of people, about 60 in total,...

Well, - I'm afraid that the field in a solder gun is not that well contained, as the tip is part of the secondary coil, with a fairly heft current,
That's how it works, OTOH - I don't think that it will do any harm for the few seconds that is needed

For this kind of soldering , a 25W iron is way too small...... I'd say 75-100 would do, even a simple cheap one...
Regular electronic solder also works......

Thanks a lot!!

Bob.. could you please show the innards of the box...... front and back if possible..... My main reason, is that the numbers you guys quote often mean nothing over here, and if I could get the parts at all, they would be a LOT more expensice than you pay over there... Pictures do tell so much more o...

Hi guys.... I think the idea about resonances in hardwood cabs is as close as we can get, but still the energy needs to come from somewhere. If a resonance is excited, it will steal energy from the main output, making the frequency response even more uneven than the most popular guitar speakers are ...

Real NOS SIemens, Mullard, Philips. Minwatt, - 12AX7, - AT7, ECC etc sometimes fetch hilarious prices, as the HiEnd crowd lends their
Golden Ear evaluations... 100$ each or more is not uncommon.... Octal power tubes are even worse......
