Aiyima A07 question for case re-design

[xschop]

I wish I could find a threaded IEC socket to match the XLR connectors... Still looking.

 

[xschop]

Anyone installed one of these IEC's? Opinions...

 

[xschop]

Went with gold binding posts to match the gold IEC socket....Cant believe all the audio goodness on the market, yet no thread IEC sockets in the wild. I used 304 stainless 6-32 flat heads to make it removable from outside in event I have to remove inner SMPS plate....

Nice! now it can be sold for 10k hehe 🙂

$20,000 With segments....Very nice piston! 😊😊😊
Blag aside, your case is magnificent! 👍

Lol, I've machined pistons. Stu, I'll take hypereutectic for $800 please...
Want with a 19mm dia. LED push-button and countersunk it.

I'll probably add the ribs to the A07 case and also machine it's base plate to accept a 3E or XRK board, then sell it.

The best IEC socket has single-piece active/neutral/earth contacts (solder eyelets), with no spot/punch welding along the full contact length.

There's no gold on those lol. Should I ground the SMPS or the case itself, or both?

Hello all,
my Aiyima A07 is connected with an Aiyima Pre therefore I think The A07 sounds better without the cheap potentiometer. Please give me information how I have to connect the 6 pins after disconnecting the potentiometer.
