Thanks ZM.
It's not the best, but OK... It means OK is not enough for me
So what would be the best? The Kynar?
For power wire I have some leftover thick (but not solid core) micro-silver-coated OFC copper from Furutech 👍

Because this amp is a very special one, it deserves much more effort regarding the case
Here the front and rear plate plans 😍

Thanks for the advice Yes, but... I will use a custom made case and 3 xformers, all in front of the big MoBo. I wanted to place the turtle in the middle (the right side of the MoBo is 13 cm wide, the left side 10 cm), so I have place for the mains on the left (front view). But the plans are not final, I must consider many things.
One of your builds had the mains also on the left side (front view), but I know, this is a pcb without logics psu. And the coffee must be on the right side

Dear ZM,
some days ago you wrote regarding my "volume issue" (normal volume at position 1 of the attenuator), that I have a "distribution problem".
I have a Cambridge power amp which delivers 200w at 8ohms, with an input sensitivity of 1,5v rms. As my speakers are really not sensitive, this amp has the power to drive them.
In the position 4 (sometimes 3) of the attenuator I have the volume I like.
Today I wanted to check it with an other amp - two bridged ACAs. Position 1 is quiet and even position 12 is not that loud (the ACA is really not suitable to drive my speakers), but -
from position 13 on there is no output signal 😱 🤔 I couldn´t check it until now with the big badabumm amp because as I wrote the highest position was 4 with that.
Do you have an idea? (I´m sure you have)

send me proper picture of your Volume switch in e-mail
it must be something trivial
now, I'm routinely checking functionality of these switches and cables with testing jig, same as with exact Turtle...... but it seems I need to establish damn checking list, jut to be sure that I really checked it
whatever, even if there is a problem, we'll solve it

Problem solved together with MightyZM some soldering and assembly was needed.
And with that, the issue with the high starting volume is solved too.

so let's just ignore the fact that issue is originated with Mighty ZM's Clumsiness
so, besides being many other Omni things, ZM also being Omniclumsy

The most important thing is that it works
It sounds just great, unbelievable "live", open, and and and 😍and, I expect - there is no change - how it sounds ?
The above picture is not my build, it was meant as a sample for the mains on the left - built by his OmniMightyness himselfWe are fearless,
We are reckless,
We are bold,
We are numerous,
We are damn
Very nice build, Plott. Where is the source for those unfindable 15mm L.S. lemon MKCs?
This is my build
But the case will be ordered this week and the Anteks will arrive next week or so, so some progress is expected. The lemon MKCs were part of the kit 😀 only ZM knows, where they are from.

It seems that ZMighty in person produces those precious lemonzested polycarbonates by night (late night)...
just wait for next superduperexoticultraexpensive MKC variation
shiny copper tube and epoxy are on the way
and I'll put my brand on them
