i'm not too big on combos so i can't vouch for the amp in most of the budget ones
i can solder, no problem
reee
shorten links
tpa6120, it'll be great
you are right sorry, i was doing it in a hurry
do be aware it probably won't come with schematic though
so you basically just have to know how to make an amp anyway
good point
not a bad deal for $18
cheaper than you could reasonably buy the components for just one finished amp on digikey or whatever
shit those heat sinks would run you like $2 a pop easy if not more
that pot's $2 in quantities of 1
also i'm not sure how assembled it comes, do be aware the tpa6120 is a small surfacemount part
so get your drag soldering tip ready
and it might even come in the QFN package, and if so get your hot air station / reflow oven ready
i do have all that
only a true wizard can hand solder qfn packages
thing's 4mmx4mmx0.5mm, not exactly gonna do that with a spool of solder hot air station or no
need paste and stencil
Would the Behringer UMC22 be a good interface to go with a NW/BM-800? I'm looking into moving away from my gaming headset, but I also don't want to blow the bank, and I hear USB mics can be a pain
hopefully they used the 20SOP version
i have anything i could ever need where i work
that one you can reasonably do with a steady hand and a drag tip
huh
my pc is having a hard time driving these
my phone can do it fine
@Raggle Fraggle anything with 15v-48v phantom power is fine
also behringer is a good brand
from tests we've seen that's all that's necessary to power it without quality drop off
like, it's not super extra pro tier but it's gonna be better than 99% of twitch streamers have as a given
I don't think you even need an audio interface personally if you're only using it for gaming, but that's just me and my experiences
i think it'd be worth it if you're trying to do twitch or youtube, but
honestly, it would mostly be used for chatting on Discord/in-game stuff, and *maybe* some amateur commentaries/goofing off; I just would rather have something of better quality than my HyperX Stinger's headset mic
how much of a maybe is this?
because yeah it's valuable for videos and streams
because you can adjust levels really easily with a spare hand
