I LOVE your project. Very beautiful, and the red letters on wood gives it a nice (please dont ban me) high-endish feel 😀
I wanted to ask how satisfied are you from the 400va antek transformer. Does it feel right? Or would you buy something else if you started the project now?

Thanks for the compliment! As for the antek, it seems to be fine. Since I have the PSU separate, no transformer hum. And I don't seem to have any vibration or heat issues. I know many others have had success with it so I would not have any hesitance to recommend it.
Still waiting for parts to come in. GL was nice enough to send some parts and I still need the heat sinks and trafos as well as random enclosure parts. In the middle of populating boards now. I'll get pictures posted later today perhaps.

I will send them tomorrow via USPS. I have been slammed until this afternoon with a large project deadline.

Heatsinks and trafos? what about the Antek and Parmetal ones that you described on earlier posts? didn t they work as expected? Sorry I fI missed something on the thread. I m a slightly/heavily medicated for removing my wisdom tooth and could have missed something biggish 😛
Those are the same... but I'm not reusing for the Aleph. Got 8(!) new ones for the Aleph. 4 per monoblock. *sigh*
Yup, working fine. Haven't measured the temp, but I can hold my hands on them indefinitely. They have lots of space around them and convection doesn't seem to be an issue even with the relatively close fin spacing.
