read few first pages of https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/sissysit-r-3.371272/
actually setting the bias
one way is opto nested in between gates of output parts (as in SissySIT), other way is resistors nested in between gates of output parts (fed through CMirrors; as here, Babelfish XA252)
in both cases, precision CCS is crucial , as reference
Pa is using plain resistors for that but, hey, he is Papa; I'm just ZM Chicken

ZenMod, you had mentioned using 35 volt power supply caps for the 30 volt rail setup or 50 volt caps for the 35 volt rail variant.
Is that because capacitors typically are not sold in intervals between 35 and 50 volts? Or is there another reason?
I ask because I have a bunch of these nice Kemet 40vdc 47,000 uf caps.

yeah
multiplicator (ac to DC) is 1.41 for lightly loaded PSU filter
as you load it ( Class A) multiplicator decreases
it is practically in between 1.25 to 1.3 for our usual concoctions
example, with 18Vac sec, it is 24Vdc nominally, while more as 22V5 when actually measured
Thumb of Rule ....... rulezzzz

Hi Mightiness, what's the highest possible rail where the amp has a normal lifetime?
Seems you preferred a bit lower rails and higher Iq for the SIT version, yeah ZM?
I have gathered my (majority of) parts for xa252 (no SIT, no Schade) and SissySIT P. Thanks ZM, looking forward to receiving PCBs. I always second guess my own choices of parts so conveniently asked ZM to send full packages. At least then I remove that small factor of doubt from my mind. Look at the size of those supreme Toroidy transformers. The one in the back is from Toroidy as well and has equal specs
. They are heavy and huge!I did that with 6-24db crossover boards, still anxious to order. Also I need to find an efficient way or tool to match j113 fets. I must confess that I have the full xa252 schematic in easyeda as well, more for learning purposes
What about this:
Pulled from the DIYaudiostore site.
- Get a 5 to 13 volt supply and a DC voltmeter (we used 12V)
- Connect the +V to the Drain
- Connect the Gate and Source together to a 100Ω resistor
- Connect the other lead of the resistor to ground
- Measure the voltage across the resistor, which gives the Idss (1 volt = 10 mA of current)
- Try to measure all devices under the same conditions, temperature, and duration of test.

This has not stopped you and Pa feeding us greedy boys with this plenty power Class A though, luckily
but indeed, as Speels I also wonder, why THF51 on 30vdc only?
