This is my amplifier, I do it myself.
Thanks for watching

It's not my amp but I find it beautiful and original in its construction

@ nick
your direct link does not work to read it here, you have to go to youtube.
The amp I just posted comes from a Russian site and it's not intentional to post it after yours, please don't hold it against me.

Here is one of a pair of AMB Beta 24 monoblocks I recently completed. The large power supplies for the output stage, the xfmr for the regulated supply, and the soft start circuit are all housed in the lower aluminum square tubing. Barrier strips are used to connect the power and star ground to the top portion. The idea was for an enclosure that isolates the power electronics from the amp boards without letting the size get out of hand.
The side panels are 1/4" aluminum. The I/O panels are aluminum angle. The rear cover is perforated stainless cut and bent to size. The finish is DIY powder coat. I tried to have as few visible fasteners as possible. Vent holes are placed under the xfmr, meanwells, and heatsink fins, hopefully allowing for natural airflow up through the PSU enclosure and out underneath the amp heatsink.
I built this amp in 2018 and recently re-cased it with new aluminum, soft start, and speaker protection. The "finishing touch" was the powder coating.

Ahh, thanks for pointing that out; now with a closer look, I see the TO3's! Great free-form imagination...
It may take a hit to the MTBF, but it could be used as an insect zapper in a pinch!

I like that design. Functionality, proportions, service, interesting lifestyle paint scheme.
How much of the chassis was done buy the shop, and how much was done with hand tools?

DavidT, I fabricated the enclosures with hand tools in my garage. The heatsinks and brackets are from Modushop and the rest of the metal bits came from eBay. Thanks for the compliment.
@PScal
Looks excellent. Kudos! Is that a Modushop 4U/300 heatsink?
Are you sticking with Ti’s original bias recommendations or have you played with more bias current?
Would love to get a subjective review of the AMB B24 sound quality from you. It is one of the few (very few!) fully differential and fully discrete designs I know of.
Best,
Anand.
