Would suggest NOT using stooorage.com as an image host on a public forum - some may not appreciate the advertising that goes with this domain........

-I see Unreliable FASTON connectors (release by itself)
-I see the capacitors are physically separated from the amplifier = design FAIL
-the heatsinks could have pretty high gradient (one end is 30-40C more hot than the cold end)
-I see output wires to the connector (probably the feedback runs from the amp board) = Low damping

:) thats it

Yes, yes, yes, ?

Why the problem with output wires? Given the 5m+ to drivers, is 15cm an issue?

Every millimeters is an issue especially together with capacitor to amplifier wires :-/
Not only the small milliOhms resistance but some of the additional inductance matters.
Added Foil caps to the amp stages would not replace a properly designed busbar structure

This is why NEXO Systems has usually four wires interfacing 2 power + 2 sense wires

People have to sometimes put 10M extensions on speaker cables, due to unexpected venue issues, so no need  ring alarms about few cm in the amp... LOL
