liquid cooled amplifier

One should try this with cooling amps and see if sound goes oily!

U could make one with a class a, then 15 min later call it a deep fryer 🙂

The best way to cool a Class A amp is to turn up the volume 😉

I actually bought a pair of Peltiers to try as a constant Current source on a Zen V5 instead of a resistor. Instead of wasting the heat via source resistor, using a Peltier to cool the sink.

Someone here convinced me it wouldn't work... so it sits on my bench...

Maybe just put the Peltiers between the output device and heat sink to "eat" the heat and generate 12 Volts to run an internal fan...

Maybe someday I will revive that project...

This idea comes up about every 6 months 😉 Search for more threads where it has been discussed a lot.
