The faceplate design looks vaguely familiar.....

[AudioSan]

yes they do🙂 but i liked the F5 turbo meters🙂

 

[AVWERK]

Very nice!
The material you used is aluminum? It looks somewhat painted instead?
Either way, good job

Its MDF and Plywood with some paint. Its nice to have a CNC machine at home🙂

Power button not finished yet..

Better picture.

nice job! What heatsinks did you use? They appear to be rounded off...or did you do that? Nice job, faceplate is very nice. Well when I blow the pic up it doesnt look rounded off. Very nice!

Avalon clone?😉

 

[HIPCHECK]

I like the build!

I had serious thoughts of doing this with my SOZ faceplate. What paint did you use?

Wow ! nice job....
Lets see some nudes ! 😀

BTW just curious, what height and depth is it?

 

[GentryBa]

😱 wooooooooow!!!

that's some awesome amps!

very nice build!

I would start a turbo built, too. but there is soooo many ways to go.
Maybe the boards with BOM can be bought in the shop someday?

Best Regards,

Very nice build 🙂

The MDF idea is definetely something I will consider for mine 🙂

 

[willamp]

They look great but the faceplate on my normal F5 gets just as hot as the heatsinks after a couple of hours. Can the mdf take that? Or, did you insulate them from the chassis somehow?

Where did you find the meters?

Thanks!
