According to National´s calculator you´d still get around 50W out of it but the required heatsink theoretically would be too large.
(amp will be current limited as well)
Beyond 10W output power the power dissipation grows quite fast.
If you don´t need high power and install big enough heatsinks I don´t see a reason not to use it.
If you´d have to buy the chips first though get the LM3886 obviously or parallel two 3875.

In my reply I was assuming that you mean 24-0-24V AC
so around +-35V DC.
If your rails are +-24VDC there´s no problem at all.
I already did and guess what : nothing special happened; besides it gets hot very quick.
Of course I do assume that audioPT wants to build something with parts he´s got on hand.
If the transformer still has to be bought I wouldn´t choose 24VAV-secondaries. (rather 18VAC max.)
There are quite a few threads about this BTW.

I can't, the amp is ready!Mick_F said:

Is this heatsink enough? 20x10x4 cm
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

I've tested it in my bench with a 22-0-22V 150VA transformer with 10.000uF in each rail with 4 Ohm speaker and it didn't get hot...

My doubt is if the chip live enough at mid power...
I'll go to Famalicão saturday night...
But, we can have dinner friday or lunch saturday
At this moment I don't have any amplifier working... But I'm working hard to let you hear my modest sound
I'm changing my system and, as I said to you by phone, I'm painting some rooms in my place.
BUT,
You WILL see and ear my system.
And after it, feel free to
and put in this forum your opinion about my system.
Of course, friday

As you wish, for me it's the same.
Next is your time to come to Lisbon.

Worry not, just make your paintings, that's more important.
I'll take an amp and a pre.

I'm not there to judge, just

Friday it is, then.
PS: Just listening to The Sound, "Missiles".
Who the hell makes the missiles?
