Is that a spelling mistake I see, should it not be "Simpelstark" ?
The name Valery used "Einbahnstark" is a cool name to use as well.
Other than that, fine work, cheers to you

I'm busy reworking on the rear panel.
First attempt on lettering isn't successful.
I must rub,anodize and paint the rear panel again.🙁

Hi thimios, i don't really understand why you anodize the panel you will paint. The anodize surface provide a really non adherant surface for painting job. To paint anodized aluminium parts it's always recommanded to rub out the anodize layer. So you provide paint adherance and before finish paint it's recommanded to spray an epoxy primer.

Hi Marc, i used the anodized surface as primer.
The first paint coating disappears by wetting the anodized surface.
I don't know if it is something wrong but works well for me.
Keep in mind that the anodized surface prior to heat sealing is porous.
This is probably the reason the paint works.

Hi Hugh, i haven't built this yet.
Is the first time that i built the enclosure as start😉
I still haven't had a chance to hear mine.
No word from Crestnet on the SMPS testing yet. It sounds like his area was shut down tight due to the plague. Hopefully all is well.

Plug this thing, it sounds really good! 🙂
What's the specs on that new version? PSU requirements, output power 4 and 8 ohms, etc... I'm excited! hehe
Do
Yes, the lock down in its final stages. We started to move by cars with limited movement.
I am not doing anything since 18 March, I will be able to finish the amplifier assembly in a week or two. Then testing should start same day.
I will update once I have something.
Hope everybody is fine.
Good to hear things are improving there.Things are getting better here too, but shipping is a disaster still.
I'll likely be testing it in a 250W @ 8R version, but it's got enough output devices for 500W operation, so it should load down well if we can cool it. It'll fit nicely in a 4U or 5U 300mm deep chassis. Everything about this amp will be unconventional, including the power supply and protection scheme, so lots of testing to be done before releasing it into the wild.
