Hello All!
I offer up my scrapyard chic Blue Impala, an F4 just completed.
I am very grateful to so many for their help and especially Nelson Pass for letting loose on the world his John Galt like brilliance, helping folks find their feet. Thanks Nelson, I'm kinda proud of this one 😀

esprit: thanks for the nod!
I guess growing up in the Motor City had more of an effect on me than I thought. 🙄

Scrapyard? 😱 I think I'm officially giving up DIY.

F4 just completed.
Man. I just love diy. 🙂
Kill me if you can see something like this in some factory amp...?
So original. So cool!
Wow guys, thanks! I am lucky enough to live by a good scrap yard. Even luckier to have the free assistance of the leading members of this forum!
On the homemade Faraday cage I did not isolate it from the main bolt, should I have? It floats above the torroid.

if it floats (no electrical connection to anything but central screw ) , there is no short , so leave it as is
though , you'll have better screening if you make deeper one , connected/based to bottom plate if case , while central donut screw mustn't have connection to it

My last project. And I have to say, this amp sounds and measures just insane. Thanks!

Gotta ask, what's the average parts cost for one of the F4s? I'm wondering if it might be something for me and I've got to admit, these pictures of your guys versions are just darn sexy!
