From the first few notes after firing that bugger up , you will realize it's a whole different animal from a 400. Headroom is immediately recognizable....

The 9Kappas can use it. They are current sucking beasts. One foot ruler for scale down by the lower woofer. Should be interesting.

Have indeed. Suppose I should introduce the family on the left of the speaker. The two WOPLs are the twins, Dorothy on top and Charlotte on the bottom. The GFA-565 on the bottom of the stack is Butch the monoblock. A girl name just didn't seem right for a monoblock. He drives the 18" acoustic suspension subwoofer pictured below.

AC routes north to minimize noise. Wee dips for the thermal switches.

I need to do this with mine. The stock configuration has the AC woven through the buss feeds to the output transistors. Who on earth thought that was a good idea, or acceptable should be shaken. I'm running stock backplane wiring, but there has to be room for improvement even with that.

With one on top it would stand to reason it's time for this...
