Be careful with this chip though. It seems to oscillate very easily. I have made an amplifier with this one using the TIP142/147 darlingtons as driver. They didn't seem to be too happy with clipping though, but I have a feeling that has something to do with the fact I didn't put protection diodes on the drivers...
Take a look at my schematic. I also have the pcb's for that one.

Haven't got a clue. I gave up working on this project because I assumed it was limited to using darlingtons. Besides I don't like the tda7250 at all. It produced quite a lot of hum with me, and with this sort of ic's.. where do you begin looking eh?
I'm going to take my chanches with the TDA7293 wich seems to be a lot easier and compact...

That TDA7250 thing doesn't really make sense to me. With +/-45V supply rails ypu can add as much output devices as you want, the 4 ohm power won't increase.
The only chance to get reasonable more power ist to use the both amplifiers in bridge mode.
I haven't read the specs of the TDA, nor have I looked at the DPW666 solution, but I would say that a good discrete front end won't make such a big amplifier much more expensive.
So why stick to that limited driver chip?

with TIP142/147 u can max get 80W x 2 in 8 ohm in
bridge u can 250W in to 8 ohm...
with MJ11015/6 u can get 400W
bridge u can 250W in to 8 ohm...
with MJ11015/6 u can get 400W
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Dj, I think you make a mistake here.
It's not because the specs of a transistor are higher that you will have more power in the same circuit.
Tip142: 100V/10A/125W
MJ11015: 120V/30A/200W
These specs only give you the maximum ratings of the transistors.
Substituting the TIP's with the MJ's will do nothing. Unless you change the whole circuit.

With the shown schematic but TIP's instead of MJ's i have a problem.
At +/- 38 V and RL=4 ohm. when i turn on the volume over a certain point the amp shuts down and when i lower the volume the amp waits a few secs and then turns on again.
What is the problem ?
Can be that the speakers can't take the load and the amp knows that and is shutting himself off for protection ?
Thanks again for help.
P.S. Great pictures of 7250 amps.
