I think most of us will agree that wood makes a fine
faceplate. Too bad it's such a lousy heat sink.

Looks great. I was suprised to see plexiglass on the back. I thought that it was aluminum from the first picture. I guess that you have enough heatsinking for the Aleph 5 with those heatsinks, and can afford to use plexiglass and wood for the rest of the chassis. How warm do the heatsinks get?

After five hour and you can still touch the heatsinks, but they are warm.

Default Beautiful job Mike

I like the plexiglass touch. The faceplate is rather unusual and also quite lovely. How do you like the sound of the Aleph? What type of power supply are you using? Is it regulated?
