2x30 VAC of course, sorry... 🙂
ok, that sounds nice, AudioSan!
would 4ohm speakers be a Big Problem?
best regards,
Matthias

4ohm will not give you much class A power. then you are down to 20W class A. and about 170W class A/B. i would use a little bigger transformer for that. but it all depends on your volume🙂
Wow!! AudioSan brings in the heavy metal!! Wow, that's a lot of heatsinks.. You better upgrade your electrical connections to your house! 😎
😀

hehe😀 a 30A curcuit for the amp alone maybe🙂
i have 4 more of those sinks. and i acctualy need even 8 more😛

ZM. a question. i have pr now R5/6 at 1Kohm, and 7.1mA J-fets(i forgot to calculate a reise of the resistance)
i can solder in some 2.2Kohm resistors. or i have another set of 7.1mA J-fets i can solder in, to dobble up the J-fets. what would you do? i don't know if 2.2K will be enough for 7.1mA fets. but with dual 7.1mA fets, 1Kohm chould be enough? right?

considering that you're going to Turbo (driving 3 pairs ? yes ?) , I would toss another pair of small Toshiba critters in
in any case - metal film resistors are pennies each , so every time when you buy them , buy triple your needs ....... and not just values you need in a moment - then you'll have them when you need them
I'm hearing differences between resistors only in really low level circuits - for power stages you're always more than good with cheapest MF resistors
those already are of decent industrial quality , and that's serious thing

acctualy 4 pairs🙂 yes i know. i ordered dobble up of most. but ofcourse, not of the right ones for this case😀 i may find som others if i go thru my binds🙂
but for this case, i think i go with dual J-fets. that was my plan from the beginning becouse of the 4 pairs outputs. it can be a little on the limit for 1 pair of J-fets.
i use Dale CMF60 all the way on this ones. exept the 3W's ofcourse. and R2 (forgot to order 47.5Kohm resistors)😀

sounds great variac🙂 they will be used for the turbo v2🙂 or i might change the boards i have, for the new ones. and use the old ones for v2🙂
cap value?
AudioSan, what is the value of those 4 little blue things in your photo? 😀
Are you using a small mkp capacitor in parallel to your big cans?
Looking awesome, great job!!! 😎

Is there a rehab center for 'large capacitor' addicts? We should all spend time there!! 😛
I`m thinking 8 times 10,000uf is huge, but it is just small potatoes among the folks on this forum.. 😀

hehe😀 there is no cure for this😀 8x10.000 is about what i got pr ch in my standar F5🙂
in my aleph 2's i had 6x68.000uF😀

Heck, I am talking to a guy who is going to use (8) 22,000uf 35v on the DIY audio PSU board because they will fit! 30mm x 50mm Panasonic. Awesome!
And there are people who would consider that the minimum for a linestage... 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

6L6. some are crazy🙂 but on the other hand. it can not hurt🙂
i was thinking of using a 100.000uF cap bank for my CD player😀

I'm hoping to have a dedicated 30KW solar array and deep-cycle battery storage system dedicated to my audio system.
To listen to headphones. 🙂 😀 🙂 😀 🙂 😀

I hope to be getting my PCB and heatsinks in the next few days!
