You can DIY! The F5 Power Amplifier

In 2008, Nelson Pass submitted an article on its new F5 power amplifier design to audioXpress. At the time, he wrote: “I feel that it’s important to support AudioXpress, a magazine with which I have a 35 year history, and which also serves as a mainstay for the DIY community. Lately they have kindly printed projects that I had already posted on the web, but I decided that they deserve a little better than that.” Effectively, the F5 project was published in May 2008 and had a huge impact on the global DIY community and certainly contributed for the fact that audioXpress is still around today.

Over the years, some of the best Nelson Pass projects have been featured by Audio Amateur and audioXpress magazines. The A40 power amp article was published in The Audio Amateur, 4/78, and the A75 power amplifier appears in The Audio Amateur 4/92 and 1/93. His other works are posted at passdiy.com.
