This list contains items that I used in this course. You probably already have most of these items, and you can always substitute some of them with items that you do have, or others that you think might work better.
For example, you may choose to substitute the 3.5mm audio jacks for banana plugs instead if you already have banana plugs in your drawers. They might actually work better!
Much of what I used, I did because I happened to have them already in my drawers.
Go to the course parts and tools page to see a detailed list.
