If I understand you right, you want to get 12 volts out from something that has a 9-volt power supply. That's not an amplifier. Amplifiers produce output voltages no higher than the power supply voltage. What you want is to convert the DC into AC, run it through a transformer or a diode-capacitor voltage multiplier, and filter it back to get smooth DC again. That kind of circuit is called a DC-to-DC converter. -- :- Michael A.
