I decided to make this circuit so that I could listen to faint noises. It is a simple two-stage transistor amplifier design. The circuit was designed to use the input from a dynamic microphone but I am sure that with some modifications it would be possible to use an electret microphone. The 2N3053 transistors used [...]

A microphone amplifier that may be used with either Electret Condenser Microphone (ECM) inserts or dynamic inserts, made with discrete components.
Both transistors should be low noise types. In the original circuit, I used BC650C which is an ultra low noise device. These transistors are now hard to find but BC549C or BC109C are a good [...]

High headroom input circuitry
9V Battery powered
This circuit is mainly intended to provide common home stereo amplifiers with a microphone input. The battery supply is a good compromise: in this manner the input circuit is free from mains low frequency hum pick-up and connection to the amplifier is more simple, due to the absence of mains [...]
