Well the drivers are in and functional... tomorow is the outputs.... all ten of them... 1000 WATTS :)
then its onto the left side... strip off my old test setup and make way for my final setup- 1/4 inch aluminum plate set ontop of  a 1/8th inch u channel (homemade) set ontop of another 1/8th u channel.

Tryin'

Hey guys... you must be mad i havent been updating regularly.
Just a little weekend note that I have got it working :) Pounding hard :), but its not quite a '1000 watts'
just yet. By the end of this week i should have a 1000 watt working amps, without any face cover or anything though.

Untill later siya

More equipment

Well I just got 2 pre used power cords that where used on light duty electronics in a workshop. They say 20 amps but I'll let you decide on that, and the fact I'll probably be pulling about 10-15 out of them! No lights dimming yet or no more power yet... I'm working on a preamp/tone/volume circuit for the amp now... More to come soon.


Thank you to all my viewers/readers out there. I'm constantly keeping check on the country totals located on the page of the hyperlinked visitor count hosted by Clustrmaps. Thank you again to my viewers for showing support. I will momentarily post another note with my email in it. If you would like to send me an email you may copy and save it.

RIP NTE 59 (or your sister I forget)
19 more... No extras

Success # 2

Well it's 3:45am on the last day of my christmas break, but we have success!!!!!!¡¡¡¡!!! The new circuit worked and the amp is running... A few heatsinks need to be made/modded but it is working at least 😃. It has about .25 on the output for the pre drivers, not the finals yet. Speaking of finals I will throw them In today after I sleep... Keep up more pics to come.

First time startup

D: that's all folks

Update

It's been a while but party's and family get-togethers have died down. In that time I have been working on the power supply. So I took a couple of days and now it's finished!!! The actual voltage of it is about +/- ~84 volts, or ~174 volts across positive to negative!!!!
I have also got the soft start in order and workin' perfectly 😃. The relays seem to be flicking in and out with pwr and no other problems occurred. Talk to you later.


Specs
2 25 amp diode bridge
1 1500 VA Hammond transformer (182t60)
6 22000 Vishay caps, 3 per side @ 100 volts (working them critical... :()
Standard gauge house wiring (14 AWG)
2 20 amp relays for soft start
1 5 amp relay for acc (meter lights ect.)
12 volt regulator ( on silver heatsink by transformer)
Relay MOSFET drive mpt series I think
10 amp fuse
4 20 ohm Resistors in parallel for soft start
Pictures to come
