Need mini-amp for iPad/drums
 
So I'm trying to learn drums again (lol) and i got sticks and a practice pad but there is music i need to practice with.

So i need to interface an ipad to a pair of 600ohm akg monitors

Obviously i need power but i need something small like a box of altoids

Possible?

Sorry i'm out of touch with these ancient technologies lol

drums! :D

jeezus! $350 for the ipad! :eek:

yeah im not ready for that yet. i *could* use that as a zoom recorder substitute though... maybe. or maybe i'll just get a zoom recorder-- which i need for a diff project

was just looking for a portable/DIY headphone amp of some sort (w/ mini jack connector) and wondered if anyone had direct xp with it

something like... $25 lololol

and yeah, those are my headphones! work great on ye olde stereo, because they *do* need an amp, just wanted something cheep & pocketable

hm... now that im sober i should google it myself :D

eta: i think i found sumpn: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/pro-a...F-adType%5EPLA

did you check the last one? cop/paste that sucka. There's a used one for $150(+shipping)

!@#$%! 04.14.2017 01:44 PM

$150 lol no

$25 is the budget cap

i might order the stuff i added or i might DIY on an altoids box

i found it built!

https://www.amazon.com/Audiophile-he.../dp/B00GPV7AH4

but diy sounds more fun, hm....

eta: hm the spec of that is up to 300ohm lol. but it should still work just not too loud

maybe i'll just sit by my stereo and wifi the music to it ha ha haha

Zoom recorders are dope. I had an H1, then decided to upgrade to an H4n, but decided I preferred the sound of the H1. True story. Don't steal it to make a movie.

If you don't have great soldering skills, I can tell you what looks easy in theory is a headache in practice.

!@#$%! 04.14.2017 01:56 PM

i hear that...

thanks!

!@#$%! 04.14.2017 02:56 PM

this is more than i want to pay but looks good enough for other uses maybe (e.g. editing on laptop)

EVOLghost 04.14.2017 05:16 PM

Yo. That alto is one looks dope as hell!

!@#$%! 04.14.2017 07:34 PM
