Monolithic Chipamp Enclosure

jimbo1968 · 11th January 2010, 08:33 PM

I've got a concept for a monolithic chipamp enclosure.

Please use this thread if you just want to discuss the idea.

If you are interested in buying, use this groupbuy thread. Group Buy: Monolithic Chipamp Enclosure

The concept is a 4" cube of polished copper, milled out, 1 channel chipamp inside, sockets on underside, sitting on a black plinth.

Alternatively anodised aluminum in your choice of colors.

Maybe round is more your thing.
Kind of a tube amp aesthetic.

So it seems no one was very interested in my design

A bit more thought today, and I realised that CNC is not required, only a lathe.
Therefore it won't take a group buy to make it affordable.

Here is my latest scheme if anyone fancies giving it a go.

I see a system like this: Untitled
so neat except for all those straggly wires, and I just know the owner would be happier if the wires on all his equipment came out the underside into a plinth.

I like your round design on the left in post #3. You could make them the same diameter as a wine bottle and use a wine bottle rack to hold it... Or make a nice wooden holder for it so it doesn't roll away.
