Nice job . I love my cMoy bass boost. I have to say it, but those Shures definitely will need that bass. I vote you get a really nice pair of headphones, too. Because now you have an excuse .

looks good! I would've painted the altoids tin, but thats just me. Good choice anyway, the wintergreen ones are the best for sure.

How'd you get that portable setup at 13? Come to think of it, when I was 13, I was poor and I didn't even like, or listen to music that much, much less care about SQ

Mouser.ca, though the PCB came from http://jseaber.com/cMoy/. Not sure about the wattage, but its enough to drive HD650s from an iPod.

Yeah, getting the shures-->making the amp-->getting headphones---->getting better amp--->getting better headphones and to quote from the headfi slogan "Sorry about your wallet".

I was bored, and my parents wanted me to do something educational and productive.

Bwahahahaha. I used a 10 dollar soldering iron from the source (or circuit city) and got one of these : Helping hands soldering toolIt's more important to just get really tiny solder, I used 0.8mm/0.032"

No. Usually I hold it though, and for storage in my bag and stuff I have a camera bag.
