Portable Chipamp Stereo!
Tube amp, shmoob amp! This awesome amplifier delivers 4 x 68 watts of absolutely incredible sound using the LM3886 IC amplifier setup from Chipamp.com. But this is no wimpy home stereo...This amp is built in a steel enclosure box that can be taken outside and left in the rain! It's got filtered-air fan cooling and it uses house outlets for speaker connections and extension cords for speaker wire. Four JBL speakers hang from fold-up speaker stands (of my own design), to let folks hear the beauty of the chipamp and show them that they can make it too. I also have my harmon-kardon reciever that has the same chipamps in place of the junky factory amps. Now it's worth 450 bucks!
