Small utility power amps

One of the things I'm often asked to do is to provide an additional set of speakers somewhere like a lobby, and it always causes me grief to find the right amplifier. A single channel amplifier. When I was younger I had a few old WEM 100w slaves, which were ideal for the task, but they went long ago, and I've nver really had a satisfactory substitute. But I've found my dream little amp, and thought I'd share in case someone else has the same frustration.

Full info here. It's little more than an LM3886 in a box.

 

Its about 36w into 8 ohm, and claimed 50w into 4 ohm. The only drawback is that the output comes on two wires, as it's designed to be mounted on the back of a control-1, but it's easy to add a speakon output socket. Input is balanced, which is much better than the old WEM slaves, yay.

 

Just a word of warning - if you do go drilling, which will invalidate your warranty, take the torrioidal out so you dont drill it...
