Mauro's "Myreference Rev.C" building queries and guide.

For the power cables as well as speaker cables (+/-), just about any 5A multicore cable will do, including stock speaker-wire (Rs.12 to Rs.20/metre).
The line cables can be twisted-pair or shielded audio cables, and they're not usually very thick.
My amp is very crude-looking at the moment, compared to Quad's - his may be considered to be the reference construction.
Nice work, Hiten. The wiring diagram is correct, as far as I can see. You may want to make the voltage on the transformer consistent with the voltage at the wiring block, i.e. either 24-0-24 or 25-0-25 at both places.
Sorry, my mistake Linuxguru. Will correct the schematic and post soon. I think I have 48 hours to edit the post so will wait if any other mistakes are noticed.
On funnier note... A straight wire with 1v gain from 24v to 25v. An audiophile's dream come true. :lol:

Hmm use a 20 rupee cable to speaker out terminal, then a 2000 rupee speaker cable from terminal to speaker ..... I would suggest use a scissors and chop your very expensive speaker cables to use in the amp guys!
hyeah: 
snip! snip!

:clapping: The big boys probably use much worse inside theirs.

Can't we use finolex 0.5 sqmm ? Its 99.97% Copper after all
If you do, I'm sure it will sound electrifying

The price is better than good. Says Rs.0 on that web page. :lol:
Not only better It would be fantastic.

could you give the link for that ?
here you go mate...A gold plated chassis with dancing lights would be nice ...

@stereorules ~ I think you are thinking I am mentioning about other vfm kit. I meant this kit.
Its good vfm.here you go mate...

If its so good looking and expensive it MUST sound good!!
hyeah:I want to use a common Trafo for the F5 and the GC. the pass labs doc says
"The power supply of the tested amplifier is +/-24 volts and should be rated at 6 amps continuous duty, and more than 10 amps peak per channel"
Is this talking about PSU rectification circuit or the Trafo itself? In either case if I get a 24-0-24 6A Trafo will it it work with GC safely, considering GC requires 5A? I am thinking of housing in an external enclosure with IEC sockets.
Does the miracle Trafo touch 10amps peak ? Or Delta? How do I ensure The trafo I get is capable of this?
Thanks
