Not loud enough

well I cut wire to do both Primary(one strip) and it has the same resistance as one of the old primary wires(same wire size) I would be able to wind it like 36 times with this wire I cut(better grade wire) so what you are are getting at is go for the 36 winds or for 8 ? I been reading and they only say do one more turn if it is higher resistance to offset the extra resistance

Not loud enough

well i think I just may have it.Done the primary now to the secondary as soon as my thumbs caim down they are real sore now LOL

If I were you I would replicate the origional with heavier guage wire... if you want to mess with things additional turns on the secondary or fewer on the primary will up rail voltage with a loss in current capacity...

be sure no matter what you do you are in the SOA (safe operating area) of the outputs

First I would suggest caution when doing this. My first take is that if you do not know the basics of switching power supply, or at least read up on it, then do not attempt this.
Having said that, power supplies are engineered to even out losses. Going to a thicker wire, with same number of turns will reduce the resistive loss in the wire, but it may be more difficult to get tight, even windings and therefore you may end up increasing other losses. There is a heck of a lot of current running thru the windings and you need to know what you are doing.
As for those suggesting measureing resistance to estimate length of wire, I suggest most of you do not have an ohm meter that can measure that low accurately enough. Only expensive lab equipment can measure in the milliohms. Do not attempt to increase the secondary turns as this will increase the output voltage and this will stress the rest of the chain. Higher voltage means higher PA output, higher current draw etc. This means you will need better swichthing FETS, better PA FETS, More heatsinks etc. Just buy a better amp.

I think I will stay the same wire and turns as I`m just trying my hand at it on a cheaper amp.As for getting better ones i have tons and don`t realy need any more as most amps i have are vary hi-end and some vary vary rare I just like to dabble a bit
