A4 Power Amplifier
This is a 4 channel amplifier that uses LM4780s working in parallel mode. There are options for bi-amping or bridging. Each channel is rated at around 50 watts per channel, but bridged, it produces over 150 watts per channel.

Micro-Amp
A miniature amplifier with an outboard power supply which was built to compliment the Audax mini-monitors. The amplifier uses an LM4780 and incorporates an over-temperature trip. Output power is around 25 watts per channel.

Audax Monitors
This project came about when Maplin sold off their stocks of Audax drive units back in 2004. These speakers are made from layered birch ply, and feature a John "Zaph" Krutke crossover design.

GainClone Monoblocks
Impressed with the LM3875, I decided to build four mono-block amps. I never got around to building them in the end, but maybe the write-up of my experiments might be useful.

Hi-Fi Preamp
Designed to bring multichannel operation and microprocessor convenience to the hi-fi while maintaining high audio quality. This uses the PGA2310 to control the gain of 6 channels and was my first project to use a PIC.

NICAM Tuner
I built this back in 1991 when NICAM was an extremely expensive option on AV equipment. It was used in the same way as a modern "set top box", and features a Scart socket which could be used as an input or output.

GCSE Amplifier
A really old project, although not the first amplifier I built by any means! It's not pretty inside, but it worked well for many years.
