    It must be so satisfying to hear actual music come out, sounding good.

    Just a tip for soldering the final version: bolt down your transistors to the heatsink/spreader before soldering them on to the pcb. Once soldered you can unmount if required. Soldering them without mounting to the final heatsink will result in more effort trying to position correctly and stressed leads.

    The JAT 801 really rocks, its such an fascinating, fun educational project.
    Thank you for putting in the time to share it with us all.
    Can hardly wait for the next installment.

    Followed the JAT501 series thoroughly and I'm really liking the JAT801.
    Am I sensing a JAT1101... you know, down the pike ?

    Greetings from Mansfield! Will you be attempting any distortion /performance analysis using ARTA as you touched on in previous videos?

    • @JohnAudioTech
      @JohnAudioTech  Рік тому +4

      If I can revive my old computer. My current one does not have as low distortion audio for measuring.

      ​@@JohnAudioTech I've pondered if adding bypass caps and magnetic shielding to a motherboard would reduce the noise floor for this sort of testing.

      @@jimcoleman52 Maybe we should all cash in and get John a Topping D10s DAC or something. Also, I would totally buy a kit for a even more powerful JAT model.

      I think he'll post gerbers and then you can order boards from whoever you like. With some board makers you can even get them in different colors.

    Toshiba transistor are more better quality in my experience when I did measurement with my curve trace. Less distortion , if can get them with the same wafer even better

    What class is this amp ?

    • @JohnAudioTech
      @JohnAudioTech  Рік тому +5

      AB but it can be biased at A with a lower supply voltage due to the intense power dissipation of class A.
