F-4/BA-3 Transistor Kit

F4 is a great sounding amp and a fairly straightforward build. Only issue I had was a slight mismatch in the Mosfets that showed up measuring bias across the 0.47 ohm resistors. No idea how common that is but fixing it required swapping two mosfets. If you have the ability to match test the mosfets before installing I suggest you do that otherwise you may have to desolder and reinstall them to get a better match. Also, strongly recommend using a 7-8K resistor for R9 instead of the 10K that is specified in the BOM. I wasn't able to bias one side high enough with that 10K resistor.
Excellent kit! My F4 works great! Thank you!
Excellent kit, service and delivery . Now working perfect in F4 .
Having the mosfets matched in advance is a times saver and worked out well repairing a F4 channel.
What more can I say? Support the site!
Great service! Parts arrived very quickly with everything accounted for. About to start my F4 build! Thanks DIYAudio Store!
