Can you make a cover or housing for the toroidal transformer? Like out of acrylic, if it has a metal top and bottom to it?
How much metal is needed for grounding? I am planing on making an acrylic enclosure for a lm3875, one enclosure for the transformers and recitfiers, and then 2 seperate small enclosures for the amps themselves. If I had metal on both sides of the transformers and then maybe a small piece of aluminum to mount the rectifiers to, could I ground everything to the aluminum piece?
What are the cables called (or where to I purchase), the power connectors cords to go from transformers/rectifiers box to amp box?

Pay particular attention to the Safety aspects of the PE, Earth and Safety Earth.
This is very important and very relevant if you intend separating the transformer from the amplifier and made even worse if the enclosures are not connected to PE.
