Welcome to ESP, the home of DIY audio and electronics articles, and PCBs for popular projects. Electronics is a wonderful hobby, and with DIY there is a huge scope to get the best performance for less money than otherwise. DIY is fun and educational, and by building your own audio equipment, you get to learn electronics as well as build equipment that may cost a great deal more in the shops. ESP is committed to providing high quality projects that are known to work, printed circuit boards (PCBs) for the most popular projects, and to assist you if necessary to complete or debug your project. There is a very wide range of power amplifiers, preamps, guitar/ bass amplifiers, studio equipment, effects, and other projects to build, including loudspeakers, subwoofers, and many others. Purchase PCBs to gain access to even more information. sound-au™ is a trade mark of Elliott Sound Products, and represents the site's primary focus (sound) and where I'm located (au - Australia).
