Audio Amplifiers
Sort of a basic electronics project. Lots written on the subject. Plus if I get decent at it, I can build speakers, which are always fun.

There are also some IC's that do analog to pwm (or voltage to pwm). That would be a good base for a class d amp.
There are some 555 amps, that could be fun: http://www.circuitdiagram.org/555-audio-amplifier.html
