Nebby Posted August 18, 2010 Report Posted August 18, 2010 Does cryoing the wood make the sound more.....organic? There is onething we could build that would make the T2 look very small, a liquid cooled Class A speaker amp... Now what sort of watercooling are we talking about? Quote
spritzer Posted August 18, 2010 Author Report Posted August 18, 2010 Well ideally I'd want to fit an amp like that with an active cooling system. Think amp with a freezer attached... It's the only way to get silly power levels from Class A. All the electricity here is green and renewable so I can waste it at will. Quote

MASantos Posted August 18, 2010 Report Posted August 18, 2010 There's a lot of people doing that with computers so you'd probably have lots of parts and stores to get liquid cooling stuff from! Or you could just get an old refrigerator compressor and put it to use!! Active cooling does always bring noise with it though! Quote
Grahame Posted August 18, 2010 Report Posted August 18, 2010 Peltier (The Heatsink Guide - Peltier cooler information) surely Quote
Beefy Posted August 18, 2010 Report Posted August 18, 2010 The awesome thing about peltier coolers is how completely bloody inefficient they are. You could use the heat generated to pre-warm two or three other amps....... Quote
kevin gilmore Posted August 18, 2010 Report Posted August 18, 2010 i've done a water cooled power amp before. Very efficient. But you need a basement to put the haskris in. In fact you can use it to take more heat out of the room than the amp puts in. Quote

Kerry Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 I've been away too long working on a CNC machine. Birgir that is an absolutely beautiful chassis! Beats anything I had in mind. Kevin - that looks scary ... but fun! Quote
