M2 Power Amplifier
Hand matched Mil-spec parts to less than 1%
Soft Start board
Speaker Protection board
Audio Grade caps
IEC power jack with RF filtering
Oversized wire and toroidal transformer mounted to faceplate which is not an easy task.
Bridge rectifiers mounted to alum faceplate for best heat dissipation
Biased perfectly
The commercial version is $4000 The First Watt M2 is a two channel audio power amplifier delivering 25 watts per channel. It uses JFET and MOSFET transistors operating in Class A mode without negative feedback so as to produce a more musically life-like sound.
Spent most of its life in the closet after I built the GM70 tube amps a few years ago.
I built it for the Khorns but the GM70s won (at 10x the cost)
Built by a 40yr veteran
Total $780 plus freight
