If the moderators approve, the easiest way for me to implement the free board giveaway would be to list it on my shop as an item for $0.20 (minimum price allowed) and with typical auto calculated shipping which comes out to about what I said earlier. The logistics are much simplified this way.

The alternative is to collect names and addresses via PM and have you PayPal me funds.

Hmmm this is very interesting. I built a Mauro Penesa-designed LM3886 (MyRef Rev_C) 10 years or so ago and it’s still my everyday amp. It would be interesting to compare to this...and most importantly, I can afford to build it haha.

So it looks like once you populate the PCB (1 per channel) you just need to add a transformer, 15,000-20,000 uF capacitance, and chassis, correct? Any advantage to a dual mono design with separate transformers and cap bank per channel?

What are the heatsinking requirements?

Whether or not I do decide to get a set of PCBs, big thanks to Dibya, Jhofland, and xrk971 for doing this!:santa2:

So it looks like once you populate the PCB (1 per channel) you just need to add a transformer, 15,000-20,000 uF capacitance, and chassis, correct? Any advantage to a dual mono design with separate transformers and cap bank per channel?

What are the heatsinking requirements?

Dual trafos and dual monoblocks have better stereo imaging and less prone to ground loop hum. This is oversized at 200VA but would make a nice trafo:

AS-2225 - 200VA 25V Transformer - AnTek Products Corp

If going single trafo stereo, this one should work well:

AS-3225 - 300VA 25V Transformer - AnTek Products Corp

I have found this heatsink to be more than adequate for 38w class Chipamps:

Awxlumv Aluminum Heatsink 60 x150 x 25 mm / 2.36x 5.91x 0.98 Inch Radiator for Circuit Board PCB Heat Sinks Led Cooling Cooler Amplifier Transistor Semiconductor Devices with 24 pcs Fins - Sliver https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VDHQDQT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_A225FbNCEX39H

So $41 for the trafo (plus $15 shipping from Antek) and $20 for the two heatsinks and you have most of your amp. You can use any number of basic bridge and cap PSU. Or make one as P2P. It’s easy.

I have seen better ones but this should suffice for a PSU:
ZG Amplifier PSU kit with 4 X10000uFNover LA Audio Grade Capacitor/Power supply | eBay
