Hi, new bod here, thought I'd post here instead of in Introductions, as I'm interested to see whether anyone else has had experience of the modules supplied by Prism Audio
http://www.prismaudio.co.uk/Prism_frameset.htm
I've recently completed a dual mono amp based on their LA100B modules, and apart from some mechanical noise from one of the toroids, I'm extremely happy with the result. By the way, it's the first amp I've built, probably won't be the last, and no, I don't have any commercial interest!

Pics as promised

Front, back and insides, which seems to be the convention!

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Any observations? Like 'why are the power supply caps different!'
Long story...
 
I also have a class D...here is one picture.

The amplifier you see atop is a Symassym.

My class D is nice..i like it..but has absolutelly no sound stage.

Sonics comes from the speakers...separations is absurd, enormous.

And i have problems to find deepness on instruments...very strange that..sound comes from the speakers and finish!

150 Watts RMS each channel too...over 4 ohms too.

regards,

Carlos

Some details...
this is not a class D, it's AB, 100w per channel in to 4ohms.

The reason the caps appear to be different is because I'd originally planned to power both power modules with one power supply, and ordered parts accordingly.
Then I thought, why compromise? and ordered a second set of parts. Dunno why they look different, they're all 50v 4700uf and the same make???

Yes, Carlos, the amps are fully encapsulated, but I'll confess they were bought like that, not my work!
