Is there a chip amp tha twill run @ 110v

[srinath]

I am looking to build something like a 2000 watt subwoofer amp pushing 2 15's in a home made cabinet.
The hardest part seems to be to find a transformer that will supply 2000w at the 40-60v the chip amp needs.
eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

I am wondering if there is a chip amp kit where I can use the 110 straight on.

I am using an equipment power/conditioner supply that currently is a 10000w capacity, and I may get a second one if its full to capacity as well as put fuses etc to prevent big blow up's with lightining strikes etc.

Thanks.
Srinath.

any discussion of direct power line use is Prohibited here - it is simply UNSAFE

get a transformer - then there are chip amps that can be paralleled and bridged for 200 W output

even then the highest supply V cheap option - the TDA7293 can only take 100 V between Vsupply pins

Antek has several 1500VA transformers in that voltage range and 1500w pre-made power supplies.
Antek - Your reliable source of transformers, power supplies, and more.

Good luck,

Not 200w, 2000w. I'll look at that tda 7293.
Cool.

2kW from a chipamp is impossible unless you run many of them in parallel - and even then that power will only be achievable on a very low impedance load (certainly lower than 2 ohms). You need a discrete design.

I think the only devices even close to being a "chipamp" that will get you to that power level would be something like the LME49830/LME49811/LME49810.

Why not a Cirrus PA52. It does 200 V with 40 A continous out (80 A peak). Could be a good candidate?

Yeah, that's practical. A chipamp made out of a >$800 power op-amp? And that would only be one channel!

Price was not part of the original question

Sounds like a job for a Class-D powerhouse to me, rather than a chipamp.
