Lots of people may follow but so far only two have shown any interest. I will probably do it anyway because I need some new cases. I will NOT be using my machine shop as I want to show how easy it is to do with only some inexpensive hand tools.

Hi Steve

For sure lots of people is reading and learning out of this thread on daily base. 🙂
Please Steve, show us your skills in machining. Did you also make your own heat sinks?

PS. When you attach someones answer to your reply, make a mark in the little white square in the right corner (Quote).

Hi Steve, Thanks for share your very interesting design.
I will make a try very sooner.

But, as you asked for errors on schematic, I did find a missing connection between the node of two zeners to ground, in Power supply schematic. (both 50 and 100W versions)

Regards,
Marcos
 
Hi Steve,
Just another correction - the boards you sent out have C3 & C4 which isn't on the schematic sent with the boards - I believe these Cs are correctly shown on your recently posted 100W schematic.

Also, early in the thread you mentioned you would be post high power schematic (which you've done, thanks) & circuit improvements. Are there any other suggested circuit improvements besides the DC offset R30&R31 bypassed with pots ?(on the latest 100W schematic)
 
OStripper is correct - in the stuffing guide there is a daughter card with a Q, R, D C component - this is beside the 3 diodes you refer to MJL. The actual boards only come with a small daughter board for the 3 diodes which act as thermal bias correction. So maybe the other components were also related to this function? Steve will clarify, I'm sure

I thought the krill was a "orphan" but now I see its commercial
equivalant.. the marantz 300dc. The marantz has the same
current stage but a balanced VAS (like symasym).

Very interesting ,The marantz gets it's NFB from the OP,unlike the Krill.
I might use this stage as a building
block too..
OS


I really don't see the similarities. Could you elaborate on this?
