John Heisz - Speakers and Audio Projects | Building a 10 Channel Amplifier - Assembly Details Part 2 @IBuildIt | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 10 minutes ago
With the prep work done on the base and dividers, I sprayed them matte black. The two transformers that will power the amp are located inside the centre, on each end. There is a lot of wiring contained in that space, running back and forth, and the partitioned area keeps them somewhat tidy.
I did have to remove the dividers again to drill 1/2" holes for wires to come through. Originally those wires were going to go up and over the dividers, but I figured it would be better to have them go through down low. They connect the power supply boards (the two bigger boards in the centre) with the four power distribution boards at the base of each heatsink.
Also mounted on the top of the centre area is the main power relay board at the back and the +/- 15vdc supply board for the active crossovers at the front. This is directly above the second transformer and is fairly close to it, so I put a strip of tape on top of the transformer to insulate it. I also made new standoffs from harder plastic to replace the ones I made from 1/4" tubing.
