497.0. "Small amp wanted for Amiga" by AMULET::HALVERSON (GARFIELD) Mon May 11 1987 14:04

    Has anyone bought or made a small amplifier to power a small pair
    of speakers for the AMIGA?  I would like to buy a small set of speakers
    so that i could get full advantage of the stereo without hooking
    the system up to my main stereo system.  The lowest price at Radio
    Slop was $29 and that was a unit that put out only 1.5 watts.  If
    anyone could supply me with a parts list and sources I would even
    build one myself.

    Make sure you get a pair of shielded speakers. I can't get my Radio
    Schlacks within 5 feet of my sony...
    
    
497.2Me too!KIRK::KYZIVATPaul KyzivatFri May 15 1987 22:399
I have been looking (not too actively) for the same thing, but haven't found 
anything that suited me.  The Memory Location has a pair of powered speakers
for sale at $99.  (Or did a couple of months ago.)  Sony is reputed to have 
have shielded powered speakers, but I have yet to locate anyplace which claims 
to know about them.

Please post here if you find anything decent.

    The new DAK catalog has a pair of powered speakers made by Universal.
    I don't remember the price or specs.  I'll post the info here tomorrow.

497.4Shielded SONY SpeakersNAC::KOPPLowell KoppMon May 18 1987 17:254
   YOU-DO-IT Electronics in Waltham, has (had?) the shielded Sonys at
    $99 a pair. I bought them, and have them sitting on either side
    of my monitor, with no problems. Nice to have stereo sound ...
    
497.5please say moreKIRK::KYZIVATPaul KyzivatMon May 18 1987 21:2015
re: .4

Can you say a little about features, etc.?

1) Do they have a volume control?  
   If so, one for pair or one/speaker?

2) How do they sound?  

3) Do you feel they are a good value?

4) What is the exact model number.  With that, I might
   consider mailordering them for a better price.
