The document lists the parts needed to build an 18W audio amplifier with a power supply. It includes resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, an op-amp, input/output jacks and a mains transformer for the power supply. It provides notes on construction, such as ensuring components like Q3 and Q4 are mounted on a heatsink, and adjusting R3 to set the quiescent current between 20-30mA. Proper grounding techniques are also described to eliminate hum and noise.

* Can be directly connected to CD players, tuners and tape recorders.
* Do not exceed 23 + 23V supply. * Q3 and Q4 must be mounted on heatsink. * D1 must be in thermal contact with Q1. * Quiescent current (best measured with an Avo-meter in series with Q3 Emitter) is not critical. * Adjust R3 to read a current between 20 to 30 mA with no input signal. * To facilitate quiescent current setting add R8 (optional). * A correct grounding is very important to eliminate hum and ground loops. Connect to the same point the ground sides of J1, P1, C2, C3 & C4. Connect C6 to the output ground. * Then connect separately the input and output grounds to the power supply ground.
