Project Gallery: Zen Variation 4

First I have to thank you so much for bringing me back to DIY HiFi!!

After several years I restart playing with amps and speakers. The drug was a Zen amp. After trying several variation I build the Zen V4 and was really impressed about the sound quality this little beast could give.

I use them for my full range Fostex over 200Hz. Thanx again to all in your team.

Tech: 400 W Transformer, 2 * 22000uF Caps, I use only the cap multiplier. Build on a Vero board using p2p wiring. Current is higher then the original ZenV4.(2.8A) .

As you see, i used a wood chassis made of beech. Easy to work with and doesn`t cost a fortune. Wood is finished with hemp oil and then polished. 

My son is also a big fan of these amps;-) 

Nelson thanx again for sharing these nice amp designs.
