I was asked what enclosure we have chosen for the Beta test.
This is available to everyone :
Enclosure RE2109H 211x90x257 - Boards | Kits | Components | Modules | Tools
This is essentially the same, but not everyone can buy from TB.
2109 Á½²àÉ¢ÈÈ È«ÂÁ»úÏä-ÌÔ±¦Íø
We have yet to find out how good the quality is, for those prices.
One may also consider :
Galaxy Maggiorato GX288 230 x 280 mm pannello frontale 10mm ARGENTO
For the latter, I have no idea how hot the side panels will get when used as heat sinks.
Do bear in mind you have about 14W to dissipate per channel.
Of course you are always welcome to design your own.

Yes, difficult to find suitable enclosures ....
How about this one, though a bit costly ?

You need a taller one, the 2109 and not 2107.

Else not enough height for the DAO & HAGS PCBs.

The air is getting thin when it comes to nice (and affordable) cases...
I found those ones --> Kühlkörper Gehäuse mit 10mm Frontplatte, Tiefe 300mm (similar to the 2109)
or this one 19-Zoll-Aluminium-Gehäuse THEL-Gehäuse (GHX 31-26-10) but looks too expensive for what it offers.

then take a look at this for less than 30 bucks ...

Today I had the chance to listen to a Hifiman HE-500 and a Sennheiser HD-800 with the DAO.
It was no real surprise that the DAO TCS had no problems at all driving both, real loud.
So I am satisfied that there is sufficient headroom for both voltage and current.
As soon as we have a chance to try the other refinements, we'll let you know.

Knowing very well the build and sound quality of the EUVL F5X build, I will personally opt for a permanent high quality home (chassis) for the DAO, rather than a: "cheap and cheerful" allocation. I agree that the "inside" is where the money is best spend, but personally also the "looks" counts.
Sounds great: after all, that is what we are here for!
Measures great: can't help it - I'm a scientist!
Looks great: I live in Italy where looks (rightfully, IMO) counts!
Together this creates Zen (or Xen)!
To bad Mark is to busy (but very happy to hear that he's business is doing well!) to make a custom chassis for us. Anyway it seems that a number of options are commercially available.
Cheers,
Nic
