Default Stunning.

icceman,

I love the simple lines of your case. Lots of hard work apparent.
Especially like how compact and well arranged your PSU is.
Excellent work!

Paul

Hello,

I agree with the Paul, excellent work.
I like the way you used for active cooling.

Will you use those handles for moving the amplifier or
they are just for look ?
Are they strong enough ?

I used similar ones of alumimium on one of my amplifier and one
handle cracked at the place where the screw go !
I almost hurt my leg.

Best regards,
Kristijan Kljucaric

Absolutely beautiful work!!!! You should be very proud!!!

Stunning!!!

What value are the bypass caps that you used in the power supply? Are they made by Solen?

Also, who makes the chokes that you used?

Thank you.....

Best Regards,

Default NOT just another Aleph5

But a very nice one

Some doubts about the handles though (but have to see now they look on the assembled product first)

I like it, I really like it. Maybe because I'm aiming for forced cooling myself. A complete posting at passdiy.com I hope?
