Default

the pimeta-v2.

- uncased?
- anti-cased??
- de-cased???
- sub-cased????

something like that

here's my pimeta-v2 boxed up (boxed under?) sitting next to the gamma-1:



the pimeta-v2 by itself, alternate angle:



mostly a surface mount build. buffers are under the board and op-amps are on top. most R's and C's are surface mount, below with only a few on top.

yes, its funny looking but it works quite well, the wiring is kept away 'from things' in the right ways and there's even a sub-floor (not yet shown) inside the box.



(dark lines near wire grommets are shadows, not pencil marks, lol)

the way the pimeta is laid out, the output wires don't come together neatly in a central area. in my config, they go straight down into the box and across to the output jack.

kind of a 'mad scientist' install, but then, again, I don't disagree (bwahahaha).
