Ok its time to start putting this thing back together. The first question has to do with the mating of the thermal switch that protects the amp from overheating. Does it need some thermal grease between it and the heat sink?
Also I have a pic of the transistors mounted to the sink, do the thermal pads look to small? Or should they be fine?
Thanks in advance. Mike

You could use one of the nice thermal pads.
Otherwise thermal grease would be fine.
It is quite common in benchtop power supplies to have that.
Those thermal pads are just fine, My F4 thermal pads are a perfect fit almost and they work great.
