Hi Jesper,
Can you please summarize what you think is good to know from the article?

Hi all,
Based on Young's modulus (rigidity), the FR4 is around 20-30Gpa.
The aluminium is around 60-70Gpa.
I have read many post ago that the aluminium stator as been "aborted" because of the cost and the "finish" done by the process used. (I am right ? I have forgget something ?)
Now, I have my own CNC (24000tr), I'll be able to mill aluminium.
Yes, it cost a bit more, but with a well setted CNC, I should be able to make it "clean".
So, aluminium seem's to be a good choice ?
Thank's
Hi JFK,
Hi Ed,
Just finally sourced 200 ‘sample’ gold pins for making ‘Stax’ pro plugs and cables. They look as good as the expensive pins I source in the UK, but these are from a company in Shenzhen and very cheap. I will measure the pins tonight to see if they are exact / good enough.... If the pins are acceptable, I should be able to source these pins easily to make plug/cables reasonably cheaply.
David.
Hi JFK,
As you state, aluminium is much more rigid than FR4 (for the same thickness of materials), but flatness is also important. A while back I had some aluminium stators made to the same spec as my FR4 stators, which were PCB fabricated using 0.8mm aluminium substrate PCB + dielectric + 0.35mm Cu single sided. The 0.8mm aluminium stators were rigid, but not usable on grounds of flatness! So I did not use them.
I have since bought 0.8mm and 1mm aluminium sheet that I mean to get round to CNC sometime.

http://www.high-amp.de/html/hybrid-amp_eng.html shure but its a total diy project and the schematic is very very sensitive nothing for a noob like me DDo you have the schematic diagram? What tubes are you using?
It looks like a simple amplifier to make. Congratulations!
