Hi everyone,
I have just finished my Aleph 5 monoblocks. It seem to be ok but comparing to my Musical Fidelity MA65 Aleph's sounstage is flat. Not much of details and musicality. Better bass but this is not the most important for me.
Does any one have the idea how to solve this problem. Will appreciate any help.

And where are the pics???
Btw some info on the speakers used may be important, are they a "difficult load".
The break in experience is very commonly reported, althoughJaskier said:Meaby it needs some time to "break in"
I suspect that it's often the user's ears that are breaking in,
not the equipment .

I see pics now (nice)
Still I don't understand. I allways read that the strength of Alephs is the soundstage en musicality and not the bass (at least with lower impedance speakers and low bias). Sometimes they say that the sound a bit sweet.
Here it seems the other way round?

Ok here is what i do to solve my problems:
1. I will have even more perfectly mached fets IRF 240
2. I wil place output fets as close as possible to the PCP on a good qality OFC cables
3. I will change 0.47R resistors for better ones
4. I will paint the chasis ... this will improove most
and of course as soon as I have pisitive results I will post it
P.S. I found out when dimounting PCB that one if 1 ohm resistors in current source is not soldered properly ... grrrr :-( meaby this was the main reason ? Anyway thaks for interest and advise
P.S. The chasis is outstanding not only "nice" ;-)

Yes ... blue led ... this will solve my problems !!!
