Mic Compressor

Below is a mic compressor circuit that uses transistors as active components. VR1 and VR 2 is used to control the tone from the microphone, while VR3 and VR4 strengthening works to control the audio signal in the compressor mic. C10 must be used in this circuit. The circuit I got from my local computer… Read More »

2 x 5W Stereo Audio Amplifier based TA7227 + Tone Control

The following circuit is a 5W stereo audio amplifier, built based on single amplifier IC TA7227. The TA7227 can be used for dual mode (stereo amp) and single mode (bridge connection/mono amp). This IC type featured some circuit protection: thermal protection, over voltage protection, current limitter and BTL DC short connection. The tone control circuit… Read More »

Hi-Fi Tone Control

This is a inexpensive high fidelity (hi-fi) tone control circuit designed just with two low cost transistors as the active components. The schematic is one channel (mono) tone control, build the similar circuit will make it become stereo channel. This Hi-Fi tone control circuit can be operated with wide range supply voltage, 12V – 24V… Read More »

Stereo Tone Control with LM1036

This is a stereo audio tone control circuit which build based on IC  LM1036. This circuit will controll bass/treble level tone, volume and balance between right channel and left channel (input 1 and 2 ). You may use this circuit for stereo applications such as car radio, TV and audio systems, mp3 player, dvd player,… Read More »

Pre-Amp + Tone Control with TDA1524A

This is a low noise and distortion pre-amplifier and tone control circuit in one module. Using a special IC TDA1524A, this simple circuit is easy to build and will drive most of power amplifier. Schematic diagram:
