Hi,
I'm upping the rails on my F5 to 32V (600VA 24v transfo) and have read the F5 Turbo manual where it says I've to also consider increasing R9 through to R12 to 5 watt, I intend changing these.
I'm a little confused though. If I only up the rails to 32V and change R9 through R12 to 5 watt, will this configuration alone still be capable of driving loads down to 2 ohm without burping?
Whats throwing me is I've read elsewhere that a stock F5 wont burp driving loads down to 2ohm, but in the F5 Turbo manual it goes onto asking "Want to drive 4 ohms with this? You can do it, but I recommend that you consider the upgrade to the F5 Turbo V1". However, the V1 also has the limiters removed and an additional set of output devices.
So where do I stand with loads down to 2 ohm if I only increase the rails to 32V and change R9 through R12 to 5 watt please?
If your wondering why I'm going with a "600VA".. I'm planning further upgrades later but for now I prefer to stage things up to be sure heat with my enclosure sinks doesn't catch me out... I wanna play with bias along the way
Many Thanks
