Howdy,
I've been working on an AMP 4 and finally got it set up, but my output relay keeps tripping when input1 reaches a certain volume level; whenever the speaker needs a particularly high current level for a given note the relay cuts the signal out. I am not listening to the speakers all that loudly, and this ONLY happens on Output1; Output 2 works just fine at the same volume (in fact, output 2 has full volume range).
I'm not sure what to do at this point? I know the Tripath 2050 has overcurrent, over/under-voltage, and over-temperature protection - it's not over-temperature since it cuts out before the chip even has a chance to get hot. I've checked my 9V and 5V supplies and both are fine; I'm running the amp using a 22V transformer, and I do have a wire connected for R100.
Any help is very much appreciated, I tried asking the originator of the design at 41hz, and got a reply that the fellow no longer answers support questions and to ask the public if I had any questions... Guess I should have gotten a different kind of amp.
Thanks folks!
