@Monk55
Sweet build! Curious where you were able to source the Ducati Caps and what you chose for power supply.

 

[Monk55]

Caps at TME.com
Bridges GBPC3508.
Transformer Antek AS-3218.
PCB from mighty ZM called the HA. (handy addendum)

Hello Monk55,

you did a great job! Very nice chassis and...
I thought I had a Déjà-vu: did I see those kind of heatsinks in my listening room? 🤔
Have fun with your amps and enjoy the sound!
Cheers
Dirk

 

[Monk55]

Indeed. Great sinks…required a nice chassis. I tried to keep them small…

After a long break, I am finally on the home straight.

 

[Monk55]

Great

that one is almost pretty as Aleph 3

 

[jonboylaw]

Well It is now up and running, singing away and I am very happy with the sound it gives.
Things still to do:
clean and re-brush finish the front and top panels.
experiment with anodising the front and top panels
build a higher gain pre-amp to allow for slightly more volume.

I would like to thank ZM for putting this design together.

seriously Fugly! work of passion and love

more modest one, than Omnizeromodest ZM is, could avoid saying that SissySIT deserve it all ........ but I'm just saying it - SissySIT really deserves it all

 

[jonboylaw]

Yep, the SissySIT deserves the best you can throw at it. It was a relatively easy design to build and get running. Worked 1st time, no major issues and is very easy on the ears.

i still have 2 more of those heat sinks in the stash, question is, which is the next amp to build?
I have quad matched THF-51S, and a bunch of 2SK60s/ 2SJ28s VFETs.

@jonboylaw : very cool design (ha ha). I have a number of those heatsinks . . . .

 

[jonboylaw]

@Studley, I may have to buy another pair, just in case…
