G'day Guys.
I hereby start my build log for my implementation of Mooly's My Mosfet Amplifier Made For Music.
https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/my-mosfet-amplifier-designed-for-music.119151/
Here's the schematic for reference:
I will be implementing this amp design as monoblocks for a couple of reasons:
1) I think their cooler than stereo amps.
2) mono construction, better blah blah blah.
3) My racking situation is much better suited to my power amps being monos.
4) I like making extra power supplies etc.
I am building my chassis from scratch:
1) I have the tools, sheet metal is cheap.
2) Ali express cases tend to not be my style and shipping is horrendous to NZ.
3) I like making things for the sake of making things myself.
4) I can get exactly what I want instead of being constrained by somebody else's engineering/design choices.
Boards have arrived fresh off of the printing press at JLCpcb.
Mmmm Shiny!
I've started populating the pcbs however today I will start the story with a peak at the current state of the chassis.
On the weekends I tend to do noisy stuff like cutting metal when I get a chance around husband/dad duties.
On weeknights I tend to work on the electronics side around exercise and husband requirements.
At my current rate of work, I would hope to have them powered up for testing in a couple of months.
