Details of a homemade iPod Hi-Fi system:
After pricing everything out, I decided to build a single mono channel to see how it sounded. $100 for the amp, $100 for the speaker parts, $100 for wood (real oak, just couldn't use that compressed saw dust stuff). I ordered the parts and went to work. After about two weeks of working in the evenings this is what I came up with.
... Even though it is monaural, the sound is unbelievable. I thought about building the second channel, but so far I'm happy with this.The speaker is a Dayton III design:
The Dayton III is a 2-way, dual woofer loudspeaker using the Dayton 6-1/2" paper cone woofer and 1-1/8" silk dome tweeter. These drivers have been the subject of a lot of discussion on the Parts Express Tech Talk board because they are among the "best bang for the buck" in low price loudspeaker drivers. This woofer is able to produce exceptionally low bass for a given box size and the tweeter produces clean, clear highs. When you hear these speakers you won't believe that the total cost for drivers and crossover components is under $150/PAIR!

The New York Times has a roundup of three vacuum tube amplifiers for the iPod:
BOTH the Cocoon and the Fatman come with a pair of white cotton gloves, to be worn to protect the high-gloss metal surfaces from fingerprints during handling. To assemble and try out both machines, I donned a set of the gloves, as did a friend who helped me.
