Mongrel Dog Audio/Oatley JAN6418/LM1875 chip amp kit
The near complete build of the K281 Oatley Electronics Jan6418/LM1875 power amp. The K281 kit has been built as a dual mono construction with two separate amp modules and two 24V switch mode power supplies. This was an "out-of-the-box" build with no upgrade components or "fancy" build techniques. I wanted to see what the amp would sound like with no mods at all and employing a really plane build. It is very good. Holographic sound stage from a very believable tube and chip amp. The chip is capable of better than 20Ws. Next build.

Hi MH
ReplyDeleteThis looks very good. Does the Jan6418 have any ringing issues in this build?
I followed your experience with Oately Jan6418 phono stage. I loved the sound of that phono stage - thought it was unique but still haven't been able to get rid of the ringing. I've tried lots of things but the ringing always comes in after 5-10 minutes of playing.
cheers
