Audio Solutions

    Hi Guys

    Just curious what everyone's audio solutions are for custom builds? Computer speakers are of course an easy option but curious about a small set of car type speakers and more specifically the amp used to power them.

    Any tips or tricks would be appreciated.

    I've used computer speakers in the past, I had one machine that needed better sound, so I ended up using car speakers, a sub, and a lepai amp.
    Most of the time I'll use a class D amp like this one:
    50W amp
    You can get smaller, cheaper, less powerful ones depending on your specific need as well. I've got a 3W one on order for an ultra-mini build.

    Ah cool, thanks very much for the info.

    Out of interest @pilesofspam I assume this is wire up to the GPIO of the Pi and doesn't need a separate power supply?
