How to DIY yourself very nice Class D monoblocks

If you want to know what the hoopla is about Class D and want to put together a very nice sounding kit I have a starter recommendation for you.

Go to Parts Express and search for "ICEPower ASP"
Next, look online for Ghent Audio. They make many sets of cases.

You'll need a high power soldering iron, and screw skills.
Between those two, you can put together a very nice monoblock for around $500 a piece.

I highly recommend both. I have no financial interest in either. 
You may need wiring kits, so make sure to order appropriately.

Erik,
Thanks for the thread. Is there a good source on how to assemble these properly, once parts are acquired?
..Parts express ice asp modules and ghent enclosures.

Thanks

Sorry @recluse but I recommend the DIYaudio website as a great place for electronics noobs to get help and advice.

Best,

Erik

I too have built the hypex N core mono’s. Very easy for a first time dyi project that was fun. The units took about 5 hours total to build and guess what? They sound awesome, replaced my beloved pass lab 150.5. Then bought a EVS 1200 second hand and it sounds even better which replaced another older Bryston 14 b which I moved over to sub amp duty. Love the small footprint absolutely silent dead background and effortless powerful sound. Now have a much cooler audio cabinet and probably lower power bill🎉😆. Glad I took a chance on class d. Todd
