Wouldn't it make more sense to put it on the output? Maybe an output board would be in order to make things tidy, then again, we probably need to space FETS out real good..

You're right, but here's where we need to figure out what to sacrifice - the Burning Amps chassises come with the fets and output boards already mounted, and the whole point of this amp is to fit into those chassises....
Who should we make an easy build for - the people with or without a nice burning amp chassis?

The people with, it's really for them.😀
The rest who venture here can make do with daughter boards.
Next winter would be a good time for me to work on something like this!

In the end, we will want to attract those without chassis. The chassis were
simply an excuse to do a project.
It looks like most of the BA designs will use the output stages as followers,
so it's practical to think of an outboard front end design. This modularity
will allow for easy swapping and upgrading of front ends.

BTW, trying to finish the text on BA2 this weekend
If I could be accommodated, it would be good to fit three driver boards into each of the two large BA amps I have. Three pairs of four mosfets instead of two pairs of six. That is, three channels per amp.

Putting the front end boards on the outside would be a simple solution
to your problem, Eric. You would need to put the bias circuits on the
inside on the output stage, and of course you would need the additional
connectors.
I don't recall, did you get the N and P channel or all N channel outputs?

Hi, Nelson.
I have two amps with twelve pairs per amp. One amp has all N-channel IRF240, the other has N and P channel IRF244/9240.
This is enough to make six amp channels with 3 N-channel pairs in each chassis. In other words, I could make six A5 amps, three per chassis. Four amps would be all IRF240, the other two IRF244. I'd have to move around the transistors in the N and P chassis and not use the P channel devices.

Variac's job is to vet it for typos, ask for additional details, and start
getting it to a nicely laid out pdf.

Normally I don't allow anyone to edit my masterpieces.
Then again I normally don't allow them to set deadlines, either.

You may add some nice cover 😎

There could be an exception, depending on what will Variac put on the front page 😀
I sent it back with "suggested edits" 😉 mostly a couple of typos. Nobody tells Mr Pass what to do! 😱
