Question about an audio amp

[thewise1]

I've been looking at this audio amp since the longhornengineer posted it and I have a couple questions. I don't know much about audio amps since I haven't had to work with one since it was prebuilt into the psone screen.

the chip itself

1. Where can I get speakers for it?
2. Where can I get a headphone jack for it? (I have an extra psone one but I might need a new one in the future)
3. Does the chip need a heatsink?

I can't really find the right parts on mouser.

If I can end up building it I'll put up a nice guide for it on here.

1. Suitable speakers are very hard to get new and on their own, you are better of buying a set of cheap pc speakers.

2. Take it out of something or buy one from somewhere like maplin or RS.

3 No.

I found some speakers on mouser, and someone told me I can get a headphone jack at radio shack. I'll just see how hot it gets, I do have a very small copper heatsink that will fit on it if I need one.

1. You can get speakers for cheap on Mouser.com

I think these will work

2. Headphone jack on Mouser.com

Out of stock for now put they will get more soon. This is the one I use.

3. Chip only needs a heatsink if you start sucking lots of wattage. Under 1watt (most portables) you won't need it.
