From some inexpensive pre-assembled 120W SS power boards I constructed this good looking and extremely good sounding power amp. The brds are by LJM and purchased through eBay. The amp modules can deliver 120W each but because I used parts on-hand the max power possible is 70Wpc. The power tranni is from another project the 88,000uf of Mundorf MLytic audio grade caps from another but never got used. Diode bridge is 10A and the filter assembly is fully snubbed. A charcoal black 2U 19" rack mount enclosure I had to source new including other minor parts.
Looks cool and runs dead quiet. Lots of gain, around 31db, where 24db is the norm. The chassis and amp are earthed and fused and the amp an understated look. This amp doesn't appear to run out of power even when played very loud. The bass is deep and very well controlled and extremely tuneful, mids to treble are absolutely crystal clear thus the name. Clarity and transparence are definitely the signature of this amp which runs dead cold. A very high efficiency Class AB and one I have been enjoying daily.
