Read posts #443, #452 and in post #405 you have some voltage test points,hi apexaudio
greetings can you give some tips where likely problems
can occur some voltage test points
1 checking pcb once again for wrong polarity ofcomponents and shorts
thanking you

then i cant use triacs on my amp...![]()
Then use a relay. If the amp is sufficiently big that an ice cube won't handle the current, then get one of the big ones they use for A/C compressors. You can get those with 24VDC coils.

red wire 94 volts positive
brown wire 70 volts positive
green 0
blue wire 70 volts negative
black wire 94 volts negative
will send high resolution picture of pcb both rails supply drop to 16 volts approx
short suspected

Input GND missing! Amplifier can't work without connect input GND. I can't see wire jumper (red line on component layout) on botom side of pcb, somethimes I forget connect that wire.hi apexaudio

greetings thanks for your reply connection should be made to input gnd by seperate wire to pin next to input in is that correct
1 for pcb protect circuit for heat sensor transistor can mje340 be used instead of bd241

That's correct,hi apexaudio

TIP31 can be used instead BD241, any NPN transistor can be used as thermal diode sensor but then reff voltage on comparators must be calibrate, becouse different 'Vbe on' for different transistor.

greetings thanks for your thought first hclass trying to get used to
how it works gut feeling will be a great amplifier such a nice feeling to know
so many helpful people around makes me feel good

Hi Apex
does your Class H Stepdriver working with +/- 70 and +/- 130 V DC ?
have SMPS from another Class H amp with this output Voltage

Yes it's work.Hi Apex

This is simple amplifier, and there must be simple mistake on your amp, I hope you fix it soon,hi eesbibol

are you building h900?ok then...
now, i got the point...
im very sorry for asking too many questions...
im just 21 and im not an electronic engineer...
but i build my own amps for quite sometime...
thank you for the advice sir...
and i hope for more of your advice soon... 🙂
here is one of my DIY amps...
did you manage to get IR2117?
APEXNo if you add more output devices.
how about adding power trannies?let say 7 pairs
should .33R increase value

im planning to build b500 like yours...
I don't want to diyers be afraid with "monster" amplifier useing six or seven pairs of output transistors, I use minimum on small pcb, you can add more outputs on larger pcb if you want. I see many amplifier with simple VAS simpler than my in "100w Ultimate Fidelity Amp" with seven pairs of outputs on large pcb called "monster" that's "fatamorgana" for my opinion.APEX

are you in favor or not to 7 pair output?
in this picture 2 pcb top & bottom share 1 heatsink?

I mean, some amplifiers just look like "monster", and for a real are very simple, and not much powerfull as they designers say.what do you mean by fata morgana?

Yes I favor to use 7 pairs, but only on B500 and H900.
Amplifier on picture use 2 pcbs on 1 heatsink with 2 fans, work on 0,+/-55VDC,+/-110VDC, 2500w transformer. Heatsink is about 3kg, and amp can work on 2R load, but this is H1200 amplifier, not H900.

does your h1200 mean 1200w per module or 600w+600wI mean, some amplifiers just look like "monster", and for a real are very simple, and not much powerfull as they designers say.

h900 450w+450w?
this means that those who knows amp math can upgrade h900 to
h1200?

You can get 1200W per module with MJL outputs.does your h1200 mean 1200w per module or 600w+600w

Diyers with more expirience can easy upgrade H900 with add outputs, but I think no need to get more power, you must have speakers for this power.

does that mean, adding more output trannies would increase h900's power output up to such 1200w???...🙂 🙂 🙂...
