52V is fine with ncc200 and I can't see the ncc220 being any different.
My CW transformers don't hum but maybe you have more dc on the mains than me.
Many thanks for the info! I'm relieved to know that 52V is OK

I ran my Voyagers with +- 53.5v; likewise the NCC300's.

Try this:IMG_20210515_153905529[1]
any obvious issues with this layout before I start drilling the case.
only concern was the placement of the transformer as the case is tight, initially I was going to offset it it to the left and stack the 2 hackercap bards next to each other but thought central looked a bit neater trying to keep cable runs from the NCC200 as short as possible
thoughts or suggestions welcome
I have replaced the base plate in the case with 4mm aluminium and have added much larger aluminium plates to the NCC200s as heatsinks
That's definitely the way I would go.
Hi I have minicap6 was keeping them for monos as space going to be tight there as well. Might swap over see if it helps. Was just trying to use the hackercap as new and shiny lol
I'm doing the same thing with my amps using the Modushop Pesante cases. I replaced the base plates with 3mm aluminum, and I've had no problem with NCC200 boards. Similarly, my mono Voyagers have both QUDOS and and VBE boards, also using an aluminum sheet (albeit with the front and back part of that sheet, similar to Naim's old sleds). I've had no problems with overheating in any of these cases.where is the output transistor heat sink?, is that a thick alloy base plate?
