gema: where did you get your beautiful heatsinks?
Mali?
Gorgious work!
(and BTW extremely good pics)

Thanx!
manu: Right you are. For every project till now Mali is the right address.
jacco: Somehow I manage to misscalculate
... Each of the monoblocks is in the range of 10 kilos. With marble legs fitted maybe 0,5kg more.

Touché.
Still the cleanest home-brew Aleph from every angle i've yet encountered, but judging from the drill marks you don't seem to be novice mechanical material.
The PS sub-chassis and vented back panel are real eye catchers, shame there's not a picture of the mounted PS sub-chassis in the bunch, but No Spaghetti beats any fancy stone.

The fun part is that the PSU is just slided into the chasis. A few screws and on you go.

Hi Gema,
Congratulations! Very nice work.
I am jealous.😉
I would like to mention two points:
make sure the Faston connectors are very tight on the rectifier lugs.
If loose, the resistance increases and that will lead to a hot spot/connection. I experienced that in one of my amps. I then soldered the wires straight to the rectifier lugs.
Power resistors should be mounted above the pcb. A gap between 0.25 and 0.5 inch (5-10mm) helps the cooling and will prevent damage to the pcb if the resistor gets very hot. Burnt pcb smells foul. Burnt pcb also becomes porous and moisture can create a path between tracks and pads and create havoc with signals and power supplies.
😱
Enjoy your amp.

Maybe this little thing will help someone.
I don’t like trimmers of any kind, so in this project I came across a solution for fitting resistors that may be easily swapped with resistors with different values. The catch is in the pins taken from DIL IC sockets.
