I don't remember which devices I used. I tried to follow the manual but there were a lot of choices as I recall.
If it's of any help I used ss9014 in ltp and as sources and mirror I used ksa1015, ksc1815 and 2n5551, vas - 2sa1209s/2sc2911s. 2sa1930/sc5171 as drivers and mg6331/9411 as outputs. The latter ones are not available any more so my preferred choice would be njw1302/3281.
cheers,
cheers,
Thanks janusz, i just try to find if a 60Mhz bandwidth of the output bjt will be a stability problem.
30mhz to 60mhz is just an octave apart.....is that a big deal on emitter followers?
DIYAB HoneyBadger Amplifer
Recently finished the HoneyBadger it sounds great much better than my old SpeakerCraft amplifier. It includes my custom designed protection circuit that disconnects the power from the amps with some FET's if it detects DC on the output or any overvoltage, it also has a soft-start circuit.

Hi guys, if you have ever wondered how these amplifiers actually work and would like to watch a few educational videos which may hep you design your own one day. Check out this channel on YouTube SW Audio YouTube Channel

Hey folks. Do you think I can pair the honey badger with the Dali Zensor 3s? They're 6Ω loads, can they harm the output devices? I will only be playing them in very low volumes.
The Honey Badger can be built for different speaker loads.
My speakers will be 6 ohms as well, and I built mine basically to the build guide specs with the larger MJL devices for outputs.
If you're going to use the amplifier at low levels then a simpler amplifier like the LM1875 might be a better option.
I guess you can work your amplifier with 6 ohm loads instead of 8, all you have to do is do not load it to the maximum and keeping the volume control up to half will not load the amplifier more than necessary.
Cheers and happy listening🙂
nothing special really, except that you can confirm tail currents by reading the voltage across the resistor..
OK, makes sense... you could also do it by reading the voltage across the 100 ohm degeneration resistors of the LTP.
