Is the heat sink designed to be in physical contact with the chassis ? ie - is it electrically isolated ?

The heatsink itself does not touch the chassis but it is electrically isolated using a 3M 8810 thermal pad.Is the heat sink designed to be in physical contact with the chassis ? ie - is it electrically isolated ?
I just ordered units for a dual mono ultra, that's why I'm asking. What's the lead spacing on the cap boards?
I was thinking of using KG instead of KW - will the case accommodate 50mm tall caps?
It is used for wiring the on/off button. Please see the provided instructions.I received the modules & power supplies promptly and in good order - thanks. One question, though......there's this nifty little 9V power supply included. I see where it could go, but........what's it for?
So the amp won't get to 1% THD+N running a 4-ohm load. So, what is the maximum available power at 4 ohms and at what THD+N does it occur at?For those who are intersted as I see Amir is doing max power tests at 1% distortion for some of his latest reviewes. Here is what it is for the Starkrimson Ultra modules.
With 4ohm load it is not possible to get to 1% distortion because the over current protection kicks in before that happens. Hence I am only posting this test for 8 ohm load.

You can see the posted charts for what distortion is at 500W. The amp overcurrent at 20A peak which equates to 14.14Arms or 800Wrms into 4 ohm.So the amp won't get to 1% THD+N running a 4-ohm load. So, what is the maximum available power at 4 ohms and at what THD+N does it occur at?
I would say it went well since Zreviews made a surprise visit. Thanks.@orchardaudio How did that showing go for you a month or so back?
I sell two versions of the productWhy would I purchase this instead of a Benchmark amp or an NAD 298? I can’t figure out the final price of this product. Module here module there case screws etc confused.
Thank you for the information.I sell two versions of the product
$2650 -- "base model"
$4000 -- "DMC" dual mono with capacitor upgrades
There is currently a 10% sale, off the prices listed above.
I also have DIY versions you can assemble yourself and save additional money.
I have my own proprietary amplifier implementation using GaNFETs, it will sound different than all the offering from likes of NAD and so on. Is it better or worse? That will come down to personal preferences.
My amps have won best of awards from a variety of publications almost every year they have been in production, there must be something to like.
Really? How so?it will sound different than all the offering from likes of NAD and so on.
Here is what a customer wrote on another forum.Really? How so?
