FetZilla groupsbuy 5

Thank you again Patrick

Do you know offhand how many are needed for a stereo pair?

If you are building it with a straight linear PSU, one transformer w/ dual secondaries i believe you will need 8. If you are building it with a SMPS per Paul's instructions you will need 4.

The resistors sit between the smoothing caps on the Fetzilla PCBs, on both positive/negative rail and ground.
 
Bring on the build

The case arrived and it looks good. Although, unsurprisingly, it's going to be tight. How do I always manage to do this to myself? 😀 Theres a few issues as well if anyone else is going to try this case out. Firstly I'd ask if a blank back plate is possible as the IEC socket will foul the pcb (see attached photo) in the location it's currently in.

The heatsinks aren't particularly meaty either, being a 5mm base and 20mm fins. They'll be fine for the fetzy, but my higher bias plan may be a little iffy!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking delivery of the parts and boards now and putting her all together!
