Official M2 schematic

Thanks for the comments. I've been thinking about building an M2 with the Toshiba
mosfets as well. That way I can compare it against a standard one with
the Fairchild parts.

I found the M2 more lively than my Aleph 30, though I do not know how much
the Fairchilds contributed to that.

Cheers,
Dennis
 
Nelson has made the comment that a slight amount of hum might be present because of the input transformers. At least I think I remember reading this in the past. I have LaScala's and mine is quite but it probably depends on your horns sensitivity. You may try shielding the input transformers or maybe checking your grounding scheme.

I awoke this morning with anticipation of reading your review of this M2 Russellc and was disappointed earlier by not seeing anything but I guess you were too busy listening last night to bother posting anything. I understand. This amp has reached the top of my FW builds as well.

In my opinion, within its power band, it is by far the best I have built so far.
Beautiful! Brilliant! On the vinyl system, it is amazing, spellbinding in fact...
