For home use I've started using my guitar through my desktop PC using a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2. I have it hooked up to a decent pair of passive speakers, but my volume is very limited. I'm guessing a pair of powered/active monitors would solve this problem. However, is it feasible to build a small amp to put between the interface and the speakers so I can increase the volume? If so, does anyone know of a reliable resource/plans etc.
I have some electronics background and access to component parts so building one wouldn't be too much of a stretch.
I guess i'm just putting the feelers out for any pitfalls, and things I should look out for. The internet is also awash with plans for small amps, but I've seen capacitors blow, so am wary of just grabbing any old plans.
