Hello Tibouchina ... thanks for the link

I have had this amp on the back burner for some time .. now I have listened to one and regardless of how much I have tried to purchase the example .. the chap will never sell it, also never see them for sale .. hence the build.

Pcb's are going for manufacture, transformers will be from Canterbury winding's . heatsinks .. have those

so will update more later on my progress

all the best

I read and re-read those ETI articles.
But the price of the Braithwaite kits at that time were way beyond my means, thus only a dream.

The preamps are basically discrete opamps and I did cobble a couple of them together, but decided that IC opamps were far easier. How times change.

that's no worry ... I have a hot tub that takes 24 hours to heat up

and for music its only on a few hours per day .. if that, I am looking forward to making this amplifier as I have all the updates from Stan, just hoping my heat sinks are big enough

I was lucky to find a original magazine new still in shop protective wrapping

Amazing! .... You really are going to build this monster.

Have you purchased the Douk chassis yet? Would be interested to hear about what you think of the Douk quality.

Hello .. I have not 100% decided yet on the case to be used, I thought what I would do 1st is make a working open bench version to make sure every thing worked as per design .. then I would commit to a pair of cases

so this 1st build will be a open chassis version to learn about the amplifier and make sure no issues with the construction. Then I would look for a appropriate case .. many thanks for the interest 🙂
