Well I started building amps when I was 12 yo, and I am 74 yo now. And while I do give them a personal touch now and then, I would not claim I am designing them, it would be euphemistic. Everything that can be designed has been designed, and when something new turns up it's usually the semi manufactures or professional designers that have thought it up. Actually this amp your at now, the Wolverine, is very close to some Harman Kardon designs. ostripper was always open about getting his inspiration from there. And if that's not enough it's also a perfect example of a blameless design as published by Douglas Self in his book.
At the moment I am working on a design for a housekeeping circuit around an ATmega processor, you find it a few pages back in this thread. I be interested to learn about your designs, and am also still looking forward to the answer on my question from #3745.
