Be careful with those sinks. I dont know if you isolated them from the amp chip. With LM3886 I know that the metal tab of the amp chip is good to keep isolated. The reason why is that if you somehow touch the chassis or sink with ground you will zap that chip. I dont think the chassis is isolated from the sinks. Definitely keep sinks away from ground.

Good point.
In my build the tabs of the TDA2050's are insulated from the heatsinks.

This is my tda2050 stereo amp :D

I like the sound and it has been working so fine since 3 months ago.

TPA6120

Just finished my headamp based on Texas Instruments TPA 6120. I'm quite happy with the design, the only thing I would suggest to the designer is to use 10M tantals in stabilizers ground path for better noise rejection and reverse diodes to protect the stabilizers. Since I didn't do any measuring, it is just my suggestion I don't know how much better the S/N would be. The sound is really nice, pure and clear.
