Build Pics

This is just a few pics of a point-to-point (p2p) implentation of CarlosFM's LM3886 and snubberised hi-cap PSU.

Soldering components to the IC pins.

One channel finished. Very obvious star ground.

Conclusion

I'll keep it short and sweet. The quality of this amp is the best I've heard from a chip amp to date. The mid range detail is much clearer than the other implementations I've tried and this is in addition to the added bass as a result of the beefier supply.
