In addition to powering the amp, it can be rigged up as a USB power charger, and also power a cpu fan which cools the TDA1554 chip.

-	The amplifier parts were mounted in a clementine box which can be seen in the pics.  The clementine box was eventually velcro'd inside a decorative box from Hobby Lobby which has a pair of JBL car stereo speakers mounted in both sides. The speakers were JBL procured from a pawn shop. At the top of the box is a sheet metal control panel which accesses 4 USB charging ports, the mp3 player/radio and a big on/off switch for power.	+	The amplifier parts were mounted in a clementine box which can be seen in the pics.  The clementine box was eventually velcro'd inside a decorative box from Hobby Lobby which has a pair of pawn shop JBL car stereo speakers mounted in both sides.
