F5 Point to Point Power Supply Schematic

bassnkeys · 22nd February 2012, 02:23 AM

I'd like to point to point wire my F5 power supply... Can anyone supply a schematic for one? One you've actually used?
Thanks so much,
DB

is this a standar F5? how many caps are you planning on? is it dual mono supply or one supply for 2ch.?

It is a standard F5... I would like to go dual mono on the supply.
Thanks,
DB
P.S.

Why not the one from the F-5 service manual?

oh

you can use this one. insted of 2.2mH coils, you can use resistors.
0.2ohm 25W power resistors, or pack of 4 1ohm 5W in parallel.
and you can get away with 6x10.000uF 35V caps.
and a 2x18V 200VA-300VA transformer pr PSU.

ALEPH 3 POWER SUPPLY

I don't know about a F5 service manual... I'm building the amp up point to point from the schematic in Pass's article.
The F3 supply looks solid.

its aleph3

but yes it is

i use the same with a more beefy cap bank on my aleph2's. and it works wonderfull

also doing the same for my F5 right now. but that ones are on PCB's.

If I use the 6 cap scheme where should I locate the resistors/chokes? After the first pair?
Thanks.

AudioSan · 03:19 AM

after the first pair or sec pair. its up to you

some says after first pair is the best.
others says it does not matter.

oh. forgot one thing. 2.2Kohm 5W resistors in parallel with the 4.7uF caps(2.2-4.7uF is good).
that is to bleed down the cap bank after powering down.
