A very simple power amplifier circuit built with 741, 2N3053, 2N4037, 2N3055 and MJ2955 which deliver up to 50W on a 8Ω speaker.
If you want to amplify lower frequencies increase the 4.7uF capacitor from the audio input or decrease it if you want to favour higher frequencies.
Use a 3A symmetric power supply for mono application and a 5A for stereo power amplifiers. Please take good precaution when use this audio amplifier : do not shortcircuit the output or not connect speakers ! Always check twice ! continue reading…
The LM386 circuit is a audio amplifier designed for use in low voltage consumer applications. The gain is internally set to 20 to keep external part count low, but the addition of an external resistor and capacitor between pins 1 and 8 will increase the gain to any value from 20 to 200.
