Babelfish XA252 / Babelfish XA252 SIT / Babelfish XA252 SET

:spin:

for all previous gens of pcb, problem solver is additional resistor in parallel to optodiode and changing BD follower pair to pair of more sturdy ones

one of the Boyz already did it (just starting morning coffee, bare with me) but I can't remember which type

I bought quantity of TTA004B/TTC004B for all future kits

New builders out there of the XA252?
This amp deserves more attention!

Mine is playing between 20 and 40 hours a week. I push it to clipping sometimes, still zero issues so far.
Yes it does! I want another badly, and will order as soon as available. ZM already said, it's a time thing, once some it available! Mine is in "repair shop" as I build a new board for it

In mean time, PoP is very similar, basically same amount with "standard" mosfets. With easier to drive speakers, not much difference. With more difficult loads, still spooky sounding, not as spooky as with XA25.

I must confess I stopped the project some time ago, but my devil inside wants to have this amp, period 😈
So I'm in consultation with Mightiness and will try to recover my old boards, because - mea culpa, mea maxima culpa - I cannibalized them for other projects 🙈 and I also moved some smd parts during desoldering... hope I can repair it.
But I definitely back on board :deerman:
