They're in the mail.


... and thanks Hugh. Hope that you and your family enjoy the Christmas holidays too !

any suggestion for q14-q16 n-mos;( mouser part number is out of stock)

 

[Bigun]

You want to choose a n-type FET with same footprint, good for 150V, at least 30A, low (10’s mOhm) on resistance and a good Safe Operating Range. A quick look suggests IXFP110N15T2


IXFP110N15T2 IXYS | Mouser Greece

Thanks Bigun for quick reply.

Hi Bigun,

I finally started working again on my projects. I took a long break and sold many other projects that were piling... The usual DIYer...

Speaker protections are both working but I'm planing to get them off-board with a separate supply as I always do.

Amps are working perfectly. I truly love the bass from this amplifier, very hard to believe until you hear it! Solid, in control of the speaker, I mean just perfect!

Now, to find a suitable chassis!

Ciao!
Do

Hi Bigun,

although I have (made) so many amps already I would like to make a TGM8 too!
How can I buy a set of pcbs from you? Are there still some available?

all the best
Klaus (aka lohk)

 

[Bigun]

Do, glad tohear you are enjoying the amps!

Klaus, I believe there is still another set of pcb’s left over. Check for a PM.

 

[Bigun]

5/ ‘lohk’ - last pair (from batch of 10), paid, will mail out at end of the week

I received a nice card or two in the mail today. It seems Canada post has come good for outgoing mail too. A very nice and compact seasonal presentation, thanks Gareth. Now all that's needed is a few more parts... always not enough parts or the wrong size

 

[Bigun]

Glad to hear the boards arrived safely - enjoy!

Hi Bigun,

I’m also interested in making a build, but if I read the above right All pcb-sets are gone for this time around, right?

Best,
Mikael

 

[Bigun]

all gone.

I can order more if there’s interest.

 

[maust]

Great! Let’s see if some more interest emerges.

Got a nice letter the other day - while I was at work at the university. Since it was a red colored one, my wife thought it might be a love letter. And she did not write it.
I told her later that she was only partly right, and should not be too worried. But, yes, it is complicated.

(thanks Gareth, for these nice, slightly demanding project!)
