Amplifier help

Former Member

Hello guys, as a electronics hobbist I ran accros this Atari Punk Console thing and I made it, made it again better and better, but the problem remians how will i make my 8Ω 1W speaker to play louder, so while searching I found this How to Select the Best Audio Amplifier for Your Design - Tutorial - Maxim but I still can't figure out which one should I pick, it is just some square waves right....If it is possible gimmie a piece of advice :>

  • You know the TLA (Three Letter Acronym) TMI for Too Much Information - here on E14 we need to use NMI (Need More Information) about a hundred times a  day.

     

    So

    Πέτρος Ξανθάκος,

     

    NMI !!!!

     

    How much power are you putting into your speaker now - if you don't know then tell us how you are driving it. If you want more noise are you willing to put more than 1W into the speaker - could you fit  abetter speaker, what power supplies are available, etc etc.

     

    In case you just want to jump in and try something, without worrying too much about what the problem really is in the first place, you could just use one of these:

    Adafruit Stereo 3.7W Class D Audio Amplifier - Pimoroni

     

    There are loads of similar things on the web.
