Unlikely if they are modules, and are capable of producing 10 watts. Even with relatively low internal resistance, they would dissipate too much for practical SMT application. If by chance they are, then the best mod would be to build a daughter board + heat sink. It's going to be a hand-wired boutique amp before this is over :wink:]]> Guitar Players Discussion gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184020 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184015 Sun, 18 Jun 2006 11:50:46 +0000 I don't know the size or spacing of the MOSFET, but I'd consider looking into a chip socket, for the MOSFET. You'd probably have to drill holes, for the connections, but you'd avoid the risk of frying the new MOSFET as you install it. You could, also, replace a fried MOSFET, without soldering.]]> Guitar Players Discussion greybeard https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184015 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184007 Sun, 18 Jun 2006 09:30:16 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion hueseph https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184007 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184005 Sun, 18 Jun 2006 09:23:03 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-184005 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-18513 Sun, 18 Jun 2006 09:04:04 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion hueseph https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/ross-amps/#post-18513
