This beautiful amp was made 3 years ago!
All hardware was hand made. Front panel is 20mm thick.
Behind Plexy is 2ch PPM(44led each).
Specification: 100W/ 8 ohm pure A class.
2X 750va toroids, 4X 33000 uf caps.
Soft start, DC offset protection, Thermal protection, are of course self-powered.
Each Ch has its own power supply.
Heat sink is a real masterpeace. Made out of old house radiator.
I used several shematics for channels:
Krell; Treshold; Leach.
Every aluminium part is black anodised.
See the pictures.

What kind of dye did you use ? Many organic based dyes (like for cloth coloring for example) will fade under UV light, and some even if exposed to heat. A proper anodizing black (ultra fine powder dye, actually quite expensive, around 100$ a kilo but say 100 grams goes a LONG way) will last under pretty much all conditions and qon't turn purple.
BTW, 2A is good for only 64W rms @ 8 ohms. Plenty, I agree (I run my Krell clone at 1.5-1.7A during summer months), but not really enough to call it 100W class A.
