Hi George,I have to question your assumption( I could be wrong on this)-but won't a good heatsink handle the heat dissipation adequately? Why should that not take care of whether it is operating in Chennai or Timbuktu?
heat sinks will dissipate the heat
that wont stop your Room from getting hot
And if the room isint air conditioned that would be ouch!!
i think rajesh is getting at this fact
this may sound insane, but why can't one thinks of keeping amp out of the room as a solution? If you can keep the compressor of your split AC out, you can keep the amp out as well
Only that you would need a long connector between pre and power, and very long speaker cables.
PS Rajesh, look forward to your trip to Bangalore to check it out!
What I am doing, though it is a slightly more expensive option, is to have both a class a setup and a class a/ab or class d setup and switch out one for the other based on the season.
I envy you sidvee. Hope to catch up when I visit Hyd in 3rd week of May. BTW, there are a few forum members in Hyd as well. cha_indian, afj, gopi whom I've interacted with and some more names I can see.
Why don't you guys do a Hyd HFV meet? Lets put Hyd on Indian audiophile map. Wot say guys?
Bad timing Capt. I am headed over to North America for a much deserved vacation with my family and will be gone for 6 weeks starting May 18th. Maybe we can catch up next time. We do have a small gathering that meets every qtr. or so, next time will be in my place probably in July.
Cheers
Sid

Suds-the Retex units look neat.
Gobble-any idea about pricing for a 2U unit?
anm-if the soldering is done correctly I dont think you need to worry about high voltages..
Looking at the F5 unit, it appears as if some customizing will be needed to have the heat sinks not sticking out on the sides of the front plate. Im seriously considering building a couple of these, and will post info on Miracle's quote for a toroidal transformer ( 400VA, 24 V secondaries) as soon as they respond to my email.
