well, that should do it

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't do anything

Not sure why that happened.

I had just set up my new router/hub. Might be connected although it worked ok from the off.

Some progress made here although no pictures to show you.

These last two amps are an exercise in using up parts i have to hand. Four transformers of lower voltage and VA than my other four. The caps are all kendeil i got from Les at Avondale a few years ago. For the rectifier diodes i am using dual schottky MBR20200CT. As i don't have a bridge rectifier to bolt to the heat sink then i have had to make two boards for the two output stages from tufnol and hard wire the circuit using tinned 2 mm solid copper wire on the other side of the board to the components.

Three 6,800 uf caps in parallel per polarity with no inductor's between the caps like i have on the input stages. I have had all four psu's powered up separately and they all do what they should be doing. I will link their 0V next and observe again before hooking up to my spare Avondale amp boards. Then if all is ok i will wire in the NVA boards and hope for the best

Bit more progress here.

My third pair of nva based monoblocs are coming along nicely. Will soon have that six pack i have always promised myself Not built in cases (as is the way at the moment) and built using odds and ends of wire that i had lying around - not the proper colour scheme and all different gauges It will do for these experimental stages .

I tested the nva boards on a single supply at first and when i knew all was good i hooked up the second psu's. Went without a hitch and it is sat at the moment powered up with no load.

No signal wiring yet but i will do that shortly

When these are done and ready to go they are going on the tweeters. I don't have any spare nva cable so i am going to have to use Naim naca5 which is the only cable i have with very low capacitance. That will have to do for now until i know it is worth doing then Paul can expect an order in the not too distant future
