That looks like dual mono CLCRC power supplies - impressive!!! Stacked donuts and power supplies. Great looking build!
vgeorge,
Nice! And a very clean build. I like it a lot. It's motivation for me to get started.

vgeorge and the rest, Thanks for the follow ups on the chokes. Another item on my "things to go learn about" list 🙂
Nice build!
I'm gonna have to save up for the big boy chassis. I've got time as I'm not yet at Aleph Classic level just yet as a newish diyer. Lots more to learn.

Yes, dual mono CLCRC with 8X22000uf and 2 Hammond 159zg per channel. 2 Toroidy transformers 800VA 2X36V each.
I haven't weighed it yet, but I think I should! I can lift it myself, but it's not easy even though I'm a bit fit.
@GKTAUDIO In post #979 up to #997 the pictures show you have one CL-60 on each current limiting board, which had me scratching my head. I see it's been resolved in the later posts. I mention this not to point out any errors, but to point out a potential issue that can easily happen. I hope the fix was completed before applying power. I didn't see any other posts identifying that as an issue and I felt worth a mention for noobs like myself following along and inspired by all the great pics/progress.
Hi, @birdbox; you are correct! I initially mounted only one, but I do so many visual inspections before ever completing a build or applying power, and this was a really good thing to catch. Essentially, I just thought about the circuit and realized the mistake, then corrected it before applying power.
Also would like to mention that these thermal pads from AAVID work really well, even if on the expensive side : https://gr.mouser.com/ProductDetail/532-4180
For some reason “anyone” excludes me…
I’m referring to the shared link in post #1021
^ Hi Kevin -
Sorry. I removed the video to save some storage space on my Google Drive.
Cheers,

I’m curios Patrick, why not just upload and publish the video on YouTube? I’m sure they could absorb your 86MB file into their exabyte of storage without even noticing.

^ Dang, you flipped it over too! Thanks! 
Now, can you make me sound a little more "Barry White" and a little less "Woody Woodpecker"?
