Did the Elektor Kilowatter get an update

[Tailgunner]

My question is about the Kilowatter that was published in Elektor in 1986.
I believe there was an article about this amplifier in Elektor 9/2016.
Unfortunately I don't have this issue.
So I'm wondering if it was an updat on this amplifier or just nostalgia.

I don't know if there was an update , but not in Elektor 9/2016 , english version.

Elektor did have another big one called Titan 2000 .
Begining Febr 1999.

I found it in the september-oktober version in the Dutch language.

I found it in the september-oktober version in the Dutch language. But it's just the story of how the amplifier came about. It was designed by a student at that time. The article is for nostalgia purposes. The titan looks very impressive and very expensive. Don't want to go through the hassle of sourcing all those parts + I don't believe Elektor made the gerbers available for this amp, so you would have to sprintlayout the design.

Yes it is a very big project.
At that time , you could only buy their PCB's or make them yourself .

That was already 25 years ago !

Just build the Wolverine EF-4 output stage , add a "spooky" leach amp input stage - same amp.
Titan is 4 pair MJL21193/94 pair with a Leach symmetrical IPS/VAS.
Wolverine 4 pair Sanken MT-200 would kill the Titan.
Below - "modern titan" will do 2 PPM @ 500W. Driver stages don't need to be paralleled as they are 125W TO-3P's.

Hi ostripper,
this schematic looks very interesting project... could you pls share few more information?

I started building Titan cause i found few original boards from Elektor (about 25 years ago) but my prototype doesn't seem to work.

Thx,
Theodore
