However, the 8ohm impedance is lower than typical earbuds (24ohm), and also I can't find headphone jack power specs for my computer (Macbook Air 2010) or phone (Nexus S), so I'm worried I'll blow out my speaker sample. I found this amplifier that's for 8ohm speakers, but it outputs up to 20W! I could turn it to its lowest setting but I'm worried that in tweaking the volume I'd accidentally exceed the speaker's rating just by the error of my hand's motor control abilities. Could I use that amp plus a current limiter, or will its digital electronics become under-currented? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003P534SW Alternatively, if I can find a "powered / active speaker" product such as for desktop computers which happens to have a 0.3W, 8ohm coil internally, I could just swap out the coil. Know any? Last resort would be to breadboard an amplifier circuit myself based on an 8ohm-load, 0.3W amplifier IC like the LM4864MM, but that's extra work just for a throwaway test circuit. What is the laziest way to safely accomplish this test? Ps: the pdf of LM4864http://www.kynix.com/Detail/864172/LM4864MMX%2FNOPB.html |
