Do you have a part number?
I'd like to get the datasheet to check lead diameter and spacings.
Jacco,

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Hi,
I was thinking of individual sinks, TO-220 style. Fastening to board would not be necessary, I'll cut the sinks down to size and stick them on with thermal tape. The resistors dissipated about 2W each in the original F5 with 24V rails, IINM.
Those were 50 ohm, with 24V rails.
Methinks that with 220 ohms and 35V rails would result in even less dissipation so not sure heatsinks are needed. The resistors are rated to 2.25W in free air last I remember.

Andy,
What is the diameter of the caps? What cap have you designed for?
I will take 2 power supply boards, also.

My guess would be enough for at least 200 amplifiers. Let's face it, there hasn't been a high-power PapaDIY amp in quite some time, this design will probably interest new people to the church of DIY Pass amps purely because of the power.
And don't forget the choir as well, we will all want one.
Anyway, put me down for a stereo pair of amp boards and a PSU board.

Could you double row each rail? Also, if you use 30mm diameter, we would have more options. Or make provision for either 25mm or 30mm where the 30mm overlapped the 25mm rings, but use less 30mm caps. Something like this:
Mouser Part #: 667-ECO-S1HP153DA
Manufacturer Part #:
ECO-S1HP153DA
Manufacturer:
Panasonic Electronic Components
Description: Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors - Snap In 15000UF 50V ELECT TSUP

I'd try doubling up the capacitors (4 caps wide). I'm thinking it will be easier for most people to deal with a power supply board that is 6" wide than one that is 10" long. A shorter board would definitely leave more room for transformers.
I too like the suggestion of leaving space for 30mm diameter caps if possible.
OK, I'll have a go at doubling up caps and providing for 30mm option.
In the meantime, main board modified to allow for TO-220 power resistors.
