Nice looking amp Stixx. But I would also use a plastic window on the lid. Saying that, the aluminium work is very nice and professional.
How does the amp sound? I built an amp based on the 3875 chips, and it sounded very good.
How did you get the word 'Gainclone' on the lid? Laser?

portreathbeach: Thank you!
I guess I will leave the amp as it is, plastic cover or not...
The wording on top is a decal I had laser cut by a guy on Ebay. Was like 2€ each (I also have one in orange).
The amp sounds really good although I haven't hooked it up to the final speakers yet. Another work in progress 😉

@FastEddy, ss007: Thank you guys!
This actually was more of a side project while I was waiting for parts for another project...
The volume knob sort of is my trademark 😉, milled on a lathe from Delrin (similar to Teflon).
When you go thru the picture gallery in the amp section you will eventually find more....

Last ten posts and not a picture in sight!!!!..... thought this was meant to be a gallery! 😕😕😕😕
It feels really satisfying to be credited for one's achievements.
But the pic threads are not here for that.

This is getting a bit childish. Comments, critiques and suggestions are of course welcomed on this and all threads on this forum. However the members should keep in mind the difference between a "Gallery" and a "Blog" in this situation. The developers of this site have supplied several very useful tools by way of PMs and email for members to communicate with posters. There are dedicated threads for every DIY topic imaginable and those threads have both pictures and text conversations of every description.
It has always been my contention that forum members will follow the "spirit of the intent" of a segment of this forum if that INTENT is clearly stated. The phrase "Photo Gallery" could not be more clear. Andrew, myself and others are not attempting to limit any valid comments and discussions, but more correctly hoping to avoid dilution and confusion and hope the ADULT members here will do their best try do their posting in the appropriate place.
And yes, posting pictures does indeed invite criticism. Most often that is "Constructive Criticism" that proves to be a valuable learning tool and in some cases has saved a builder's life by avoiding electrocution.

2way active project
I thought that I would just prove that I did in fact build stuff and not just forum-surf..
Here are a few pics of my current project. A 4 channel amplifier with DSP crossover for a set of two way speakers that I have also built. The chip-amp boards are from Rod Elliot (P19):
Single Chip 50W Stereo Amplifier

Are you referring to the transformer bolt being too long? I'm not sure if I can see one
no, referring to the black wire coming off it. that's a no-no.
edit: hey, this may be a photo problem 😉 perhaps that black wire is just dangling there in space? its hard to tell on my monitor. if so, then ignore my vision-challenged comment 😉

deja vu: to you too!
You won't catch me falling for that one!
Black wire is not connected and is waiting to be connected to 0v for the DSP.
PLEASE! its not finished.....
