Guys, try the TDA 1514AU (Mine were Signetics). Stupid low distortion. Will run on +- 16-27 volts DC. +-24 is the best. 30-40 watts depending on supply voltage. Easy to build. Cheap, even using the "best" components. I used ultra high speed, soft recovery diodes in the power supply. A good thing. Speaker Builder published an article (by me!)on the ones I was building at the time. This was way back in 1991. I just sent my "best one" off to Pit Hinder. I was shocked when I looked at the date on the reprint of the article.....Hard to believe it has been that long....time flys.

OH yea, WHEN you short one they blow cool little holes in the case and LOTs of smoke comes out. They must have really packed the smoke in those things.
