Hmm, the quality of construction on the PCBs looks commercial to me, is there anything written on the front underneath that white plastic?
Nice looking amp....I think its a kit myself.....main question here ....Does it work>???....can you give us a pic of the back panel?....if you dont see a UL or CSA approval then you know its a home brew and the boards were bought....its a definate keeper though...who ever built it did a great Job!!!

that looks like the front??
....I wanna see the back..LOL
The chassis looks custom formed by the way not CNC stamped like most commercial products....how I know is from the look of the radius on the bends...( you tend to know custom work after owning a fab shop for years)

Not that I think I will be able to help you, but if you tell us
where you got it from and what country you are in, perhaps
it can give somebody else a better clue to what it is.

Yeh, possibly, but what makes me think it is more than that is the way the vent holes in the bottom line up perfectly with the heatsink, and it's not as if the vent is central, like you would expect in a chassis not custom made for that amp

Pinkmouse I missed that...your right...the cabinet was punched out....but I had a quite alot of tooling for my Iron worker and could do notching and punching.....😕 ...I`m debating now also LOL

Very true...
I don't know why, but it has a look of Britishness about it. 😕
It seems to have good components too.
Except for those trimming pots, they look nasty.
The trafo?
Looks like (if I see things correctly. . . ) the primary side of the trafo has the colors white, black, brown and gray. Would that indicate the source or country of origin or at least source voltage?

it looks like the amp made by the Sonus Faber, but i am not sure, because i don't have its photo now.
this amp not like a kit or DIY amp, it should be a phototype...

It indeed is the sonus faber musica, I think even in it's original box but without the wooden front.
Here's the pic (sorry only small one)
And the mystery is solved.
