Hopefully, this coming week
Coming right along on time! This time, I went for the "Deluxe" Big box and the stuffings for the back panel. Definitely could have save a little and constructed them from 1/8 inch aluminum like my last build. Those aluminum boxes are very strong once done, but it is nice not to have to contend with piles of aluminum shavings which turn up everywhere for weeks! These boxes actually look very finished.
The kit of electrical socket for the power cord, the RCA jacks and the the speaker binding posts fit nicely into the precut rear panel of the power amp's chassis.
While I had to cut the rear panel on the Pearl 2 unit myself, but it was pretty easy drilling and fitting these few pieces. One hole for the power in, (the mic plug recommended by 6L6) one for the ground post, two for the input RCAs, and two for the output RCAs.
As soon as the F-5 turbo parts kits arrive, (sounds like it wont be too much longer before they go out) and the completion of the transformer buy, that will be everything and I can begin to build!
Pearl 2 is coming to completion, just need a permanent chassis for its power supply.
