Kevin,
Thanks..I'm impressed with the personality of these devices. I've had instances where a channel stops loading and I'll pull it out, apply a 9 v battery and it comes back to life, I lost a channel last enening after an extended listening session. The channel comes back after cool down. I'm running 3 watts with a small sink.
At the end of the day, the ability of the these devices to load a valve is incredible. I like to tinker...I'll hold off on the chokes for now ;>}.
Does the IXYS device offer any sonic differences?
Chris
3 watts with a small heat sink in free air is fine. Inside a chassis, it's probably a bit under sunk. That could be your issue. The IXYS devices are clearly superior from a sonic standpoint. That's why when I had auditioned them, I changed the kit to feature the IXYS device.
