500W PA amplifier with Limiter

hello everyone pls help me for XLR input with stereo bridge switch

This is simple XLR input circuit.
I suggest to use 2 way x-over with XLR input, and 3 position switch to select input mode (subwoofer, satelite or full range)
Regards

Clip LED light 10V before amp clip, that give visualable time light.
How do you know whether a 1us clip or a 100us clip or a 10ms clip gives a visual warning?
I don't know.
Maybe a prolonged series of 100us clips are visible, again I don't know.

I suspect some form of peak hold is required to show fast transient clipping. I seriously doubt that short clips will be visible without a peak hold facility.

For comparison purposes, a half wave of 20kHz is only 25us duration.
If only the top half of that half sinewave triggers the LED into conduction, then that gives rise to a 12us clip indication. Can we see that?
 
reactive impedance filters back through the stages.
If a 12device output stage is required to provide sufficient SOAR then the driver/s must also be designed to survive that reactive loading.
1pr of cold To220 are unlikely to have adequate SOAR to drive that many hot outputs.
 
i am falling asleep ..................................😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
here is a sneak peek of the updated pcb still a lot of work to do will update tomorrow ....................and pcb size finalized 300mm X 68 mm..... max can be a bit less......

Hi Mr. Mile

i have built B500 in bridge mode, i use 1800va transformer ,rail voltage 63+/- vdc(45ct45) . caps 6 x 10.000/100vdc. are those caps enaugh for this ?

Stringent SOA needs in Class-AB are met with relaxed ones in Class-H.

For example, 1kW @ 2Ohms in Class-AB using 5200/1943 requires atleast 9-10Pairs with rails around +/-90V whereas only 5Pairs will do the job in Class-H if rails are split in say +/-55 & +/-95.

In a Class- AB reactive loading we have high dissipation because output device has considerable VCE + Ic across it hence heating very much, Whereas in Class-H, this VCE is quite less across the device for same output load, hence less heat and more headroom.
