Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass?

Wow....that’s a heavyweight mod!

There are some mods recommended for the ACA on DIYaudio that I’ve considered.  It’s nice to know there are some DIY people on here.

@dgarretson - the link to those 24V linear power supplies are just on the border of current requirements (5A).  If you want a power supply with more current, you could look at one of these and ask them if they can make a 24V version.  It would probably come out to be 24V at 7.5A of current.

The Hi Power (Zerozone) power supply is a lot more expensive, but it looks like it uses Nichicon FG caps inside.  The Teradak probably uses Panasonic hi temp (105 degree).

@mrdecibel exactly. @erik_squires why do you start this thread? Need attention? Your approach is not appropiate. 

when Erik first joined this site , he was real big on pushing the diy speaker build and putting pillows between the speakers . it also seemed that he always had an answer for everything.   
after a while I thought maybe it’s just me as I was growing tired of him and his threads as it seemed he was just trying to stir the pot on here......but with the recent pass labs amp thread and now this one, he obviously has nothing better to do.  
have seen it many times where a member will wear out his welcome here and threads will get ignored and that member will eventually go away......

Erik,

Your magnanimous gesture of encouragement has not gone unnoticed by we audio serfs.

Perhaps you need to understand that you share the same spot in the audio food chain as everyone else on this site.
