Ugly prototype contest

[Netlist]

I think it's quite stylish Hugo

It was originally intended to be a project one could hang on the wall, hence the copper plate 😉

I think Netlist should get the medal now!!..hahahaha

I love medals, if made of copper 😀

...the capacitor wiring is way too neat. Now if he hadnt used the crimp connectors...

Originally the wires were just wrapped around the screw terminals. I used the connectors because we are not allowed to post unsafe information or pictures

/Hugo 🙂

Excellent idea - see my old post http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23211 (reply #13)! I think there would be a market for this kind of thing 😎 (once safety issues are solved )

Could be a winner, if it were not for the MARBLE WORKBENCH!

I may have a chance here. I had to dig out a 10 year old project. Its a battery powered headphone amp. Back then it was made to run my big sennheisers off my portable cd player.

I assure you, it is the crappiest laminate job, seeing as I did it! 😱 😉

This is not really a prototype but the way i try to find the right parts for speakers.

Can I jump in too?

This is the prototype of my 47 P-P differenial power amp. It is in daily use at this time...

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Is there a special category for exploding prototypes?

I think designs with proper PCBs will not count 😉

ok... i see! BUT i did have some cardboard in the mix...😀

 

[wintermute]

ugly enough?

Well this isn't audio but I think it definitely falls into the category of ugly 🙂


Any one guess what it is? the semis are SCR's.......

edit: there should really be two diodes, although it works fine without, it was added as an experiment for protection.....

Tony,

I particularly like the soldering iron wounded wire. 🙂

 

[KBK]

You guys are cracking me up 😀 . This is hilarious! stunningly.

I am in absolute AWE of the ZEN amp. Total. Stunned. Silence.

That has GOT to be the winner. So far.

As for speaker crossovers, when I am prototyping them.... they look just like that.
