A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Thank you for the help, How expensive will a good headphone amplifier be, do you know a good one?
I haven't needed to search for an amp myself since this is my only "good" pair of headphones, and they sound fine right out of my PC.
I looked into it, and I found this video from crinacle (well known audiophile in the headphone world) that discusses options that are in the ~$30 USD range that would definitely be loud enough. Namely, the JCALLY JM20 Max. In the video he does warn that this dac/amp could be too loud for some headphones, so maybe you could try the JCALLY JM6 Pro instead (~$15 USD). I would highly recommend watching his video to weigh your options.
