Please feel free and do me a favor editting the BOM in my signature. There are surely a lot of errors needed to be corrected.

i'm on a roll... the kgsshv
Great to see you're back on track, Kerry I've just managed to picked up this monster 'sink, 10 kgs, 565mm x 204mm. Any idea on how I should cut to make the best use of it? Been trying to find another one for a second T2 but no luck so far.

Yup, it's for the quad SMD Khozmo.

Congrats! What's the height of your chassis? Also, how hot does it run without any venting holes?

The Ultimate DIY Part 2 ? The KGITSOJC
unbalanced/balanced input board, multiamp and blackhole. Anyone in the US interested in prototyping the blackhole and multiamp? I have 1x set of blackholes and 1x set of multiamp (2 boards each, no PSU) that I can spare. No cost, just pay for shipping.

What exactly happened with the Khozmo? They forgot those 2 Caddocks or used wrong values?

Fugly! Good to see it works. Now if only someone could get Dynafet up and running too

It's not finalized yet but I expect it'd cost as much as Dr Gilmore's ones, ~$1k-1.2k. Of course it saves me from exorbitant shipping charge, everything is done locally.

^ Yup, that's what I try to clone. The top and bottom panels are not as thick as the Vitus, though. I'm going to black anodize and powder coat the heatsinks. The others are silver, just like the Vitus. Front panels are different, I'm weighing up some options now. The 'sinks are from http://www.heatsinkusa.com/10-080/. Each side is 2 pieces of 10.080" x 5" attached together. I had to shorten one of them to match the length of the board. The top panel does a great job covering the edge and makes it look like a single piece of heatsink.

Now that you mentioned the Krell, mine do look similar. Looks like I cloned a clone of the Krell I wish I could force the builder to speed up the things, those 4 top and bottom panels took months to finish I will talk with him about this anyway. The new Boulder amps have very stylish and compact 'sinks, might worth considering it for your second T2 The boxes seem huge but basically it's only taller (5" instead of 3"), other dimensions are the same like the original. They are very heavy though, thinking of using 6 spikes for each box. Next is to source for the purest copper available to have the L-brackets made... Pic taken at the builder's place, please ignore the kid toys and lazy dogs... P.S My apology for the stupid shit above.. One single supposed-to-be-lost-in-the-mail package and accused to be stealing *sigh*. Whatever, things solved.

Things have been extremely slow but I finally got the skeleton of the chassis built up. Next to do is the tube holes on the amp's top panel...

Mouser still has a lot of them... pretty sure it won't turn out anything if you type 'ixys10m90s' in the search box...

Think of Dr Gilmore's digital attenuator and the Arduino controller (hopefully) all mounted on the T2's amp board.

KGSSHV, Balanced Dynahi Rev A and DynaFET board run
Good to hear that, guys. Right now Enrique (eggil) still 1x on-board, 1x off-board, 3x KGSSHV psu left since some people haven't paid (and I think they won't). Anyone in the CONUS interested in the boards, please contact me.
