Hi,
I'm gutting an old iMac to make a 5k retina display. The panel driver board I plan to use has an amp but at 2x3W it's too little for the existing speakers. From what I've gathered the original iMac logic board had 2 2x10w amplifiers to drive the 4 different speakers (2 tweeters, 2 woofers). So, I'm planning to take the audio from the headphone output of the JRY board and then use an amplifier. I also would need a DSP to compensate for the frequency response characteristics of the system and handle the crossover.
Any good recommendation for a small class D amp that can manage this? It needs to fit within the imac enclosure so can't be too big
I will have an ESP32 in that case to manage other things (a temperature and light sensor, the fans speed etc..). I'm planning to try and design my own esp32 board for that (I'm very much a beginner but I believe in learning by doing )
Bonus point if that amp + dsp can be controllable somehow by the ESP32 board I have (by i2c?)
