and what the hell are your numbers worth when real life expeiance say otherwise?

It seems that I missed the bus for F5 turbo. Looks like an interesting project. Is it too late to design a F5 turbo board to offering free (just like JLH) now? Or sombody can give me the gerber for fabrication?

I received several demand on the enclosure for F5 and F5 turbo these days. Everybody is intended to a larger version of RE4015

hello i think you are here just in time maybe you want to sell outside a groupbuy to

This will allow V2 builder to use single box for stereo amp with continuous class A 50W / chan and V3 builder to use single box for 100W continuous class mono block. And some crazys can build up big cube monoblock using 2 boxes per channel for their seemingly obscene and illegal 200W continuous class A monoblock F5T. (where X being legal and acceptible )

Interesting project.

the RE4015 is originally designed for a 30W stereo class A. that means it's enough for 60W mono block. the width can't be modified but height and depth are variable. I think a 400x400x200 would be enough for a 100W mono block.

That would only be adding 50mm(2 inches) to the height. Not sure it would be enough.

If want to make your amp looks like a monster cost $5000 you may need this enclosure. size 480x230x440

Personally I don't like it's apperence although it's extremely well built. But we just manufacture per the customer's design. This modle is also allowed to be supplied to DIYers now.

then 250mm height? be care the depth is also extended to 400mm. original depth is 317mm.

Interesting.. although for now I fail to see the advantage over the hifi2000 enclosures (of course except Siliconray's active involvement and support here )

As the rest of my diy stuff is based on their enclosures, and they are based in Europe, I would prefer hifi2000, of course except Siliconray can provide additional benefits, e.g.
-customizing for this project
-cost benefits
-better heatsinking properties
-etc.
