Hi, These little amps are IMHO one of the best things I have ever cooked up. The project on building your own was just posted this week on diyaudioprojects.com
The response figures is typical of all the Oddwatts. I take special care to be sure they go past both ends of the audio band. I have a number of things I want out of each design (power amp, preamp, phono stage etc) Low noise, I want -90db all the time. Wide bandwidth 10HZ to 25K typically although several go way past that on the top end. Low distortion, 1% or less at typical use levels and 2% max at whatever I rate the full power - even if it can do more. Simplicity whenever possible, no frills, no extra complications. Low or no negative feedback. Low cost to duplicate when possible as well although this is not always possible as I use whatever components I feel do the job the best. Not always the most costly. A good example is the use of solid state power supplies. I can make them really clean and they are IMHO more cost effective than tube PS.
