Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but I did a search on where to start and drew a blank
Due to unforeseen circumstances, ill health and a relationship breakdown, I find myself unable to work for 6 months and the need to move from a house to a flat.
This means I need to downsize my system and also leaves me with a lot of time on my hands. Therefore I need a new hobby and I thought I would kill 2 birds with one stone and start looking at DIY HiFi.
I have a couple of confessions I need to make:
- I have no electronics experience. I consider myself vaguely intelligent and able to follow (relatively simple) instructions
- I like Naim Audio - there I've said it, but I'm not evangelical. Things can be improved upon
I would like to start a project with an old CB pre-amp/power supply/power amp and mod them over a period of weeks in a bid to help me convalesce, and keep me sane. At the same time I could downsize my system but still keep an active interest in the hifi hobby.
Any ideas where to start? Websites, books etc. What Naim items should I be on the look out for? I'm not looking to spend lots of money, or make a profit but just keep my mind, and to a lesser extent my body, ticking over whilst I recover.
