Ok, here's the setup:
I have a dvd player that is playing a cd indoors. I also have 2 speakers wired going outside. Problem is the speakers are near a roadway and cars passing by make it too low to hear. If I turn up the volume so the outside speakers are audible, the indoor speaker volume becomes too loud.
What I need now is how to make an amp for the speakers outside. <U> It does not have to be anything complicated.</U> They just need to be boosted about 10-20 decibles louder than the indoor speakers. Sound quality is a distance second as traffic outside causes enough noises for me to not care. This should be for a pair of 2.5" - 3" speakers.
I tried yahoo but there are too many hits and all of them are trying to sell me something. I want to be able to go to radio shack and buy bread board and some small components to make this. I remember doing this a looooooooong time ago (about 14-16 years ago) and that knowledge I had is also long gone. I'm good with soldering so that's not a problem. Athlon XP trace soldering are a cinch!
Thanks for any help you can offer!
