Gentlemen, the Dremel PCB audio power amp works well now. Had to add a few stability components

I had to add a bypass set of capacitors at the voltage divider that was feeding the + input of the opamp. I also had to add a low - pass filter on the signal input, especially if I attempted to use my phone as audio input it had a lot of noise on it and apparently the phone expects a somewhat low impedance or it will get even noiser.

I then also had to put a capacitor / resistor network across the feedback resistor to enforce lowering the gain at higher frequencies which prevented the opamp from oscillating during large signal swings.

And now it is fully functional, mounted to a heatsink.

Puts out about 14watts into 4 ohms at 30volts supply. Will do almost 20 watts into 2ohm load.

I will be switching the potentiometer out for a smaller PCB style one and also integrating the input filter directly on the board soon.

 a RP2350 Pico 2 clone I made

This is a pico 2 clone I made called PicoPlus. It's a drop in replacement* of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2. It has a WS2812B neopixel, 128MB SPI Flash on SPI0, 64MB PSRAM on SPI1, and a user button on GP24. I spent a bunch of time getting all the components to fit together, and reflowing this board myself.
