j,

The input has 4 wires, 2x115vac, blk/wht & brn/orn. Yeah...I don't want to buy new transformers. These probably cost as much or more than parts to stuff the boards. Thanks for the diagrams. I dig your new speaks too...kinda like gigantic onkens.

Hypothetically....

How many channels could be driven in a single chassis with proper cooling? ie as a HT amplifier? I have 2x 1000VA plitrons and don't mind using them. All they do now is hold down the floor in my workshop.

Could I build a six channel single chassis? or would it need to be 2 chassis of 3 channel amps to avoid being very large?

Thanks,

C

Jason: in reply to your question in the F4 thread about heatsink temps, I got mine up and running today and with the R-Theta group-buy heatsink (11x11x2.5), they get up to 45C, so if anything, they're on the big side ;)

Nothing near the 50-55C that Nelson says is ok.

BTW, Peter, please put me down for maybe 4 sets of amp boards :D - I'll email you separately since I know you don't normally operate as a group buy.

Thanks for the info, here at my heat sinks. I have 2 one per channel, i think they will work just perfectly.

I posted this in the F4 thread...

but it fell on deaf ears?

Questions Post #643

Where is Q8 and Q9? The channel scematic seems to jump from Q7 to Q10. Maybe I'm missing something.

Thanks,

Chris

p.s. I put together a BOM in excel for a single amp channel and a stereo ps running at 240vac (because of my traffo issue). I am perfectly willing to share it so that others can benefit, and also check it for accuracy. I can post it but I don't know if that goes against Nelson's rules of sharing. :D
