Skynyrd77's Thank Godamighty , Finally My Own WOPL Build Thread!!

Funny sumbitch ain't he??

 

[Skynyrd77]

Yep, Joe made my sigline again with that one

They can take some shit can't they!!!

So, we have achieved a max out at 4 ohms reading on a stock 700B. Only took 120 posts, and 4 hours.....jeez...

774 watts, not bad...might even wake up the dead...

Gibsonian has been looking for this little tidbit for awhile...774 Scott....

 

[Northwinds]

You're still awfully quiet Dennis....

I bet the Naughty Nurse is somehow involved

 

[laatsch55]

Something is involved, he usually jumps on the first baiting, this ain't like him...

well ateast in 120 post we achieved something.there built like a tank and loud

 

[laatsch55]

This is gonna be a long thread if all we did was get the top cover off in 13 pages......

Yes and exposed some ignorance........mine..... live and learn and when staring at the ohms law wheel BELIEVE what it's telling you.....forest for the trees thing....


let me see...Rule #1---check your test equipment...Rule #2...refer to Rule #1...

remember my snapping turtle rules? i still got snapped.. so it happens to the best of us lol
rules are meant to be broke on occasion. and the forest thing also. ive smoked alot in the last 125 posts lol.
long day ahead tomm so i better roll 1 more and drift away. thanks lee and joe,, and ron for the lets blow it up support

Changing the load impedence for power calculations was ridiculously easy...once I got on the right page...




RTMF!!!!!!

 

[laatsch55]

With the load impedence set on the AP to 4 ohms AND the load cell set on 4 ohms, it clips at 55 volts, and 770 watts....and into 8 ohms load impedence on the AP AND the load cell set to 8 ohms....clips at 63 volts and 505 watts....

 

[laatsch55]

BTW, the AP does roll over to KILLOWATTS, when you hit 1,000 watts, now that was the first time I've seen that figure, had to clip it terribly to get there, but it went.....

Obviously it was extremely clipping but you had it pushing over 1000 watts at 4ohm?? OMFG

I was out with the horses tending to one with a summer sore - unfortunately no nurse to help. I arrived home after midnight and the wife was using my computer so I watched a bit of TV - don't do that often anymore. Looks like some good numbers for a maximum output after rule number one was applied. Did you test this at more than one frequency?

It will be interesting to see how the frequency response improves at the low end with the upgrades.

This is a beautiful specimen of a 700B - with the mods this will be a kick ass amp.

I needed her in tending to a wounded horse - damn the luck as she was tending to another. Butt at least my assistant was busy walking my horse.

 

[NavLinear]

Controlling PS voltage sag would go a long ways in the watts out department, while also running up against SOA... just don't get something for nothing...jeez....physics works....

I prefer perky over saggy - just my opinion.

Atleast you had a good assistant helping. Lee had joe helping but I think yours is prob better looking!! Sry joe I haven't even see ya but nav's assistant is a looker!!!

 

[laatsch55]

Look at Joe's profile, him and Figaro ...

 

[Skynyrd77]

Yep! Sry but nav's assistant wins hands down!!

 

[laatsch55]

Nobody's gonna argue that point, even Joe...
