concerning
Bias
SE
etc..?
or are you just enjoying Music ...?

No, not yet. They sound too good to mess around with allready. I better save that till the honeymoon is over.
They have 1k Rout and running Global feedback with 266mA bias per fet. Next step will be to bias them at 420mA. That should be enough clean Class A watts for "normal" listening.
I wouldnt like to hear the "Klunk" when they go Class B, too often😀

you think that you're ready for OB with Sonido/Lowther 8" ,2 x Eminence Alpha15 (with T-bass network)
all that - per side
or just plain Autograph/Westminster with dreky 15" Tannoy ?
I know ........ I'm repeating ........

😱 2x15" per side? I am not sure that I am ready for that (yet😀 )
Gotta shut down the UP's, it is still workday tomorrow

you don't like Papa's OBs lately ?
btw - there is no much difference in baffle for 2x10" or 2x15"
but muscles are muscles ....
Again, I knew it…. One blinks and Steen is testing another fabulous amp. As we are accustomed to see from you… just outstanding workmanship… congrats for that Steen.
As I can here from you – and that’s what I thought--- Cheff’s design are at a professional level… so cheers for both of you.

GWAS !
(Great Work As Usual)
As Steen has regularly shown me his progress, I can't say I'm suprised 😀
Nevertheless, it's an amazing job you did here. Kudos
And I'm more than happy you enjoy the result (but pretty jealous of your heatsinking
)
And when the honeymoon's over, keep us informed of your findings : higher bias, local vs global FB, SE bias, etc...
But for the moment, enjoy the music and have fun 😎
(And if I recall correctly, you've got another pair of boards to populate, uh ?)
Cheers

Thanks Tony,
and Cheff: thank you, thank you, thank you 😎
I will surely report back with whatever I find. The other boards are in the hands of a very good friend of mine, but unfortunately he is not anywhere near LL😉 But who are
🙂
BTW ZM, could you post a link to papa's OB's? I have been totally obsessed with the UP's lately and didnt find time to look at much of anything else.

look in "feastrex fun" ,"diy progress report" and look at RMAF reports somewhere on the web
I already gave you recipe - for "passive" one (ie -without necessary biamping )

Wow! Nnice work.
Big Rifa caps . . .
Four DMMs (or more) . . .
But, first off, the superb sound.
Enjoy listening!
Cheers,

Thanks a lot, JH. Less than four DMM's is no good🙂 It really makes life a lot easier when adjusting 2 different offsets and setting the bias in the two halves of the amp, simultaniously.
🙂
BTW, looking forward to follow your F5 build thread if you decide to start one. Your threads are always very educational and entertaining😎
Is the art work available for this amp board? Looks like a cool build.
Maybe I could organize a US GB.

A second question. I have not done the calculations, and wondering what the power rating is for this amp into 8 ohms. I'm guessing it's around 100 watts into 8ohms or 150w into 4ohms?
Thank you,
-David
Hi,
- Layout will be available by the end of the year - Be patient
- 100W RMS into 8R
- 9W class A (with 250mA/mosfet) then slides to class AB

I'm willing to help with a GB effort for the US.

Hi dw8083,
look at the present state of the files....artwork is being revised by CheffdeGaar after a period of beta testing.....let's wait for the new year....😉

Don't you worry, I just wondered if I knew the guy Steenoe spoke of, Bjarne seemed like the one whom it could be, building something like that

And besides, amps under 80kg per channel.......pooftahs!

Good guess, but not this time. For some strange reason he didnt want the UP boards. He will be green from envy when he hear them play, though. Besides it would have been a waste to get him a set, he never finish enything😀
