80 Watt Audio Amplifier


David built a new 80 watt audio amplifier replacing the earlier circuit that we accidentally shorted out with loud and smoky results (see earlier post). Note the large heat sink on the left and the component board on an acrylic panel as this will be incorporated into a larger acrylic pyramid housing that we've constructed. We tested the circuit with an iPod source and successfully drove a test speaker array with Ozzy at a very high volume.
