Honey Badger with friends. Lcduino with d1 attenuator and d2 selector and Muffsy pp3 phono stage with external psu.
Does that "sexy" Badger stay cool with a 2U extrusion ? Math says you
have @ .5C/W .... should be 20C above ambient.
My bigger one (5 pair) is 3 U @ <.4C/W , does 20C.
Great badger print on that amp - very distinctive.

It's a 3u chassis. It stays pretty cool. I run the bias at 50mv between tp1 and tp2. Here's a photo from some stress testing today playing around 110db for one hour it runs around 25 C above ambient. It usually stays around 45 C with room temp round 23-25c.
I have temperature switches on the heat sinks that shut off the amplifier if the temp exceeds 75c, they haven't tripped so far. 🙂
Glad to hear that you like the Badger print. I'm considering to add a power indicator led where the eyes should be.

So you case is just a bit wider than mine - why I confused your 3U's.😱
You are at >110ma per device x 6 , I do 70ma X 10. Same wattage +3U ,
same basic thermal behavior ( I get to 55C with heavy use).
PS-I doubt either you or I could get >70C without a "party" environment at
over 40C ambient. 😀

My Amp - I just fitted the front panel this weekend after it arrived from a company in Germany that cuts and engraves this stuff.
Hi Bonsai
What is the name of this german company and could you tell me about the price ?
in MP if you want
Thank you very much
Hi all just completed a kit put together by Sonny, his TSSA V1.8. Great quality components and sounds fantastic🙂.
I built the box my self (yes I know it shows😉) out of copper I had lying around. Added some LED's set in epoxy resin and a magic eye VU with a gate to close if too bright.

Thanks fredex.... sumptin a little different.
Dark Crystal smartx21, hmmm never seen it maybe I should for inspiration for my next build.
Heres some quick photos of some previous builds, headphone amps, headphones a PSU & phonostage

It Front Panel Express.
It was about 100 Euros IIRC. But the shipping to Japan where I was living at the time was about the same.
Just google it.
