150W MOSFET Amplifier with IRFP250x2

Hello Mile,
I'm an new hobbiest, and started an subwoofer amplifier which is simple and choosen making D14 from post #31 Sch and Post#34 Wiring Daig and PCB. (Selecting this amp cause its an autobais)
My PCB is ready for further. Here i have some queries as follows.
1. C4, C12, C11 polarity is reverse - Schematic or PCB-Post #34.
2. R3 - 1K Missing from part list. Plz correct me.
3. R18, R19 - 82R instead of 220R - is it ok.
4. R17 - 330R instead of 220R.
5. May you suggest any PSU and Protect for this amp.

Thx & Rgds, Anjan
 
Hi Mr.Miles..
I'm so interest about kelvin amp.but any problem for me about some part like the transistor
in my place is so hard to find it.I need your suggesting..can I replace MJE340/MJE350 with BD139/BD140 and BDW83D/BDW84D with 2SC5200/2SA1943? thank
Best Regard

With +/-40V dc rail you can use BD139/140 instead MJE340/350 and TIP142/147 or similar darlington transistors, 2SA1943/2SC5200 can't be use it's not darlingtons.
 
Hi..Mr.Miles
I was tried build the kelvin amp and I follow your advice for the part where I can substitute.MJE340/350 instead BD139/140,MPSA13 instead BC517 and the final trans.I use TIP142/147,and the result have a problem.the out put current is 6 volt more and sound come hum.what is a wrong there? I made PCB with transfer toner and I was checked for the polarity
is correctly.thank for the answer

Post pictures and don't forget to connect input gnd to psu gnd with separate wire.
 
I was build like this,and I put the gnd from psu directly for input and output.I tested with 12V,than I checked the output current come 6,13 volt dc.please tell me if any mistake with this picture.
one more I have finished build AX11,when I test with 12v it is no problem,and sound is good enough I checked dc current from the output is come 0,03mv.but when I connected with 30v,one resistor with value 47R is burning.I used 47R / 1/2 W.Should I use up 1watt?the resistor is burning from positive rail.thank for all.
Best Regard

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
 
D14 Subamp

For all aplication especialy for subwoofer I recomend you Kelvin amplifier without VI limiter. You also need active X-over for subwoofer.

Thank you Mile and all DIY contributors,

Sound is fantastic. F100 is on the way.

Need Advice from Mr. Mile.

For Hifi Home listening what do you advice, AX14 / B80 /AX11.
Not concern abt power but good sonic.
Regards

Ask for schematic difference

Mr. Mile, in your schematic use final NPN transistor only, how to change for use PNP only, i have a lot off PNP trans with no pair.

second, why in your schematic use 2pc 5w resistor, but in pcb use one only???
