Pictures of your diy Pass amplifier

[ticktock]

Alright, you don't have to repost all the photos again!

That's why I confined myself to these two.

Thank you for the positive feedback. This is my first amp and I am trying to build it as thorough as possible. The powder coating is done by a small company in town and I am really satisfied with the result. It's not too glossy because the powder is the same that is used on heavy industry equipment.

By the way the pics that I added here are really bad. I'm gonna take some new.

I've been getting comments that my heatsinks are too small

Nah - they will be fine.

Looks lovely but I've been getting comments that my heatsinks are too small and they dwarf yours.

Heatsink envy....

I used the same heat sinks for my F5 build. They are just enough. Not really much headroom to play with bias (my room T is 18-19C, bias ~1.2A).

Make sure you have good vent holes in the cover/bottom plate - it really makes a difference.

Alex.

Great! As long as it doesn't breathe fire.

No flames - yet.

So Happy to see you made it to the completion. LOOKS GREAT!!!

Yeah K&D! I have built many Pass amps but not Aleph 4 that you owned and raved about. So how do you compare the F5 with Aleph 4? (I think it will depend on the speaker for sure).

How about changing your bleeder to higher wattage?

Do you experience humming?

All I can say is that you guys do nicer wiring than me.

It controls the JC-2 preamp also in Class A but housing still not ready, nothing is booming ...

Is a dual mono V2 with 2 PSU and 2 Trasformers 600VA. Here some pictures during the building. I hope you enjoy the pictures as I enjoy the sound

Enrico, did you build a regular F5 before you made this one. If you did, can you describe the difference in sound between the two?

Your build is top shelf.
