Hi M. Mile, I think you should put more transistors, because is always a chalenge to put them in PCB


If the PCB is going to be distributed by pdf image and then etched and drilled manually (as opposed to sharing gerbers), does it make any sense to use SOT-23 and SOD-123? That way you can put in more transistors :p and also you don't need to drill two hundred holes per channel by hand :(
 
Some questions

hi everyone, i'm completing my AX-14 with Mr. Prashant Pawar (Prasi) pcb and I have a couple of beginner questions.
The first is about how to measure the bias, it is correct to say that I have to measure the voltage between the two emitter of the transistor Q12 and Q14 and divide the value by 0.66, which is the value of the two resistors in series R25 and R27 from 0.33. This value must be around 40V if I want to get 60mA.
Also, in case of hum, if I put a jumper in the R23 position, is correct to consider C13 useless?
The other question is about the Speaker protection, I have seen the diagram of the DC6, but I would need it for a 35v power supply. I tried to understand the differences between the schemes of post n. 13346 and n. 11502 and for led resistance the value should be 3.1 k but i don't know which zener to use. The capacitors I think they will all have to be 50v, but I have no idea what other modifications in the components I will have to use. Last question is about Q1 and Q2: whats happens if they are not matched?

Thank you in advance for all the help you will give me,
best regards
