Those heat pipes are ridiculous, but in the good way!

just hacked this one together. Enclosures are manufactured by Hammond (g-something, 14 ?)

I had 4 gc channels lying around and my gf needs a new amp. Standard stuff with black gate 1000uF, BG-N 4,7uF input, welwyn rc5 & caddock resistors. mur860 bridges and wima small bypass caps pn the ps board.

karma: no they don't get hot at all. I'm running on a pretty low voltage though. These cases are pretty thin, ~2mm. I think.

I compared them with a gaincard and well, the gaincard is way better. Mostly soundstage related. I just included a zobel, some small psu decoupling and i put a small film cap across the inputs to prevent rf making it into the amp.

Have to do the test again!
