30 AMPS???? bULLSHIT

He's working out the 10AWG air core inductor for the Zobel network currently... 30 amps is correct.
I guess we'll see what shakes out.
"Each channel has a total of 8 LM 3886s (4 per side), and, if the simulations are to be believed, can drive a pair of ML electrostatics and also conventional speakers.
In order to do this, and keep the amp stable at HF, the output has a "Zobel" network (as per the datasheet, simulations, etc.) consisting of an inductor, a couple of resistors, and a capacitor. The inductor for this is a 12 turn 10AWG hand wound coil. The winding takes place on a 10mm diameter drill bit shank and the coil "length" is 20mm. As the coil is intended to handle up to 30A, it will obviously need some consideration as to how to mount it etc."
20x gain is nearly 2000 watts I think...
Okay it works out to 1000 watts with no losses dead shorted.
About 125 watts into 8 ohms and 400 into 2 ohms. On paper.
