Here is a great use for the single rail SLB: the LuFo SE Class A amp.

LuFo Amp - 39w SE Class A from 28v Rail

I measure under 1mV rms for the output at 28v and 3A.

What is the price for a SLB for the LuFo Amp - 39w SE Class A from 28v Rail?

It’s in my shop - link in my signature.

There are two versions. V1 has minor error (can be fixed by using flag heatsink vs PCB mounted heatsink for the TO126 BJT - does not affect performance) and v2 which is final good version. Both are nice 2mm thick, 2oz copper and ENIG finish.

Tungsten Audio just completed his PSU upgrade to the DIY Sony VFET amp. What a super build and great idea to put dual SLBs in their own chassis!

Apparently, the improvement in sound quality is superb:

A new batch of SLB DR's just arrived - so if anyone has been waiting for them to come in, you can place your orders now. These are in white solder mask with ENIG. 2mm thock boards and 2oz cipper.

Hi X, you need to update the stock level on the Etsy store - it still shows out-of-stock when trying to order.
Just a heads-up. I am not going to order any at this stage.

Thank you. Sorry about that!

I just checked. The standard green ones are out of stock, true. But the white DR ones are available. I just removed the green out of stock from the listing. - Thanks for letting me know.
