I have with me, a couple of old philips stereo speakers that came with an old telivision. After getting a new TV(which does not have a built in amp), these speakers have become useless so I'm wondering if there was a way to use them with my cell phone\computer\musical keyboard using an amplifier.
I have attached a couple of pics i took of the speakers and the only specs given on them (they came in the same box as the TV with no separate manual or rating sheet)
I just need circuit that has a 3.5 mm(or similar) jack on one side and gives the stereo output with these speakers.
The speakers look like small rear surround sound speakers that use low power and have no bass frequencies and no high frequencies.
there are hundreds of stereo amplifier ICs available. I guess 4W per channel should not destroy those tiny speakers.
wouldn't a LM380 work? (and i have my own qq, would hooking up the outputs of 2 386 amplifiers increase the output power if one is an inverting amplifier?) Or... if you really want to have fun you can use an LM3886 and watch your speakers catch fire. (don't do that it's dangerous)
Not if the speaker is 8 ohms.
The datasheet shows that it runs out of output current driving 8 ohms with a supply that is more than 9V so a bridged amplifier that has double the output current will just make more heat instead of more output power.
The "10W" Mini-Amplifier is a joke.
With a brand new 9V alkaline battery its output into an 8 ohm speaker is only 0.9W at clipping, not 10W.
Its output is 10W into 1.6 ohms when its supply is 15V.
well, I am just now trying to learn circuits and electronics and searching for items that might help me build what I'm looking for i found that site..
