<p>david i paid 30 for a four pack of the dano pedals , i used 2 so 15 for that , 1.50 for the amp circuit (salvation army kiddie tape deck) , 3 bucks for the delay time pot , the rest of the stuff i had salvaged so . . .19.50 ?</p>
<p>i actually got it working off one p.s. , but it hummed a little depending on where it sat , i could get it quiet by moving it , but . . i am going to try using a filter like in the craig anderton book soon . i will be sure to post up my results if it works well , i hate that problem !</p>
<p>wes , you aint seen nothin yet , wait a few videos till i post the metal amp , that one . . . you dont even want to know .</p>
<p> </p>
<p>i will look into that nxt , sounds crazy . the amp board for this one is a kiddie tape deck , happy joy brand (china) .</p>
<p> </p>
<p>i am thinking about slapping together a distortion circuit and messing with that . may end up adding it to the xam amp , which will be up next . but i also want to mess around with that slide synth circuit on a bread board . going to make one for a "special" friend . hopefully i will have these videos finished in a week . it takes forever with the editing . we have audio issues with our video editor ...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>thanks for watching and thats awesome you took the time to comment .</p>

Great amp, what parts have you used for the circuit boards? I have made 3 amps so far, getting better each time, and all have a diffrent sound/power. Got one small one with 2 x 4 ohm speakers wired in series to make them 8 ohm, plus a switch to switch to a single 8 ohm speaker, amazing the difference, and its portable runs off a 9v battery. The next was not bothering to work out ohmage etc. just build it and surprisingly turn out great, an old circuit from a subwoofer system, a subwoofer with…
Great amp, what parts have you used for the circuit boards? I have made 3 amps so far, getting better each time, and all have a diffrent sound/power. Got one small one with 2 x 4 ohm speakers wired in series to make them 8 ohm, plus a switch to switch to a single 8 ohm speaker, amazing the difference, and its portable runs off a 9v battery. The next was not bothering to work out ohmage etc. just build it and surprisingly turn out great, an old circuit from a subwoofer system, a subwoofer with filter, plus a flat nxt speaker I had from another old system I was going to throw away, but not portable runs off the mains. The third is very small 5x4x1 inch, just a small circuit board from some old player I had plus the insides of the other NXT flat speaker I was throwing out, thats why its 1 inch deep, the speaker is the wooden faceplate. Lookup NXT technology amazing, but has no Bass, and thats why amp number two has a subwoofer. David,
