Cafad Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Hey Simon, how is it for heat? And while I'm on the topic of slightly more technical questions, how many watts in class A and what sort of input impedance are we talking about here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heat = Sweet FA (technical term) or luke warm most of the time. Warm in peak of summer. 2. Class A watts = 4w or if I was a manufacturer = 8w 3. Input Impedance = 100k Ohms.

niss_man Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 Here are some photo's of the 2nd Zeus amp to be built and to go to a well known member. This one will be an Integrated version using a light speed attenuator. This will be exactly like how I am running mine except the pre side will be part of the input stage to the amp and in theory better than what I'm running as it will have one less inter-connect to run through. The pic on the glass table was done outside at daylight and the others were done inside. Please choose your amplifier face of choice oh integrated guru. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cafad Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Hmmm, decisions, decisions... I think I'll choose the panel in the first pic in that orientation. That way that nice, dark knurl is off to the left and slightly below the on button. Is the volume knob going to be on the right hand side of the on button, or the left?
