Alex,
I believe I have 4 extra RCA jacks laying around here, can I mail them to you to mount in the two amps you are building for Matt and I?

You can also parallel additional amps the same way to double the power output to 80W.
Another thing, you might not want to run subwoofers with these as the response rolls off before you get to subsonics.

We asked Bob about that on Monday morning before he left, and he said that was a bad idea... The second transformer can't handle the current, or something of that nature... (I don't speak Bob well)

Did he tell you that when he had that Clemson wrap over a glass of homemade wine Double O made?

No, but he was way into his second or third brownie at Chateau Ohm Walsh. Damn, those things were good, they could easily affect brain function. Oh, and the speakers sounded spectacular too.Don wrote: Martin,
