Some very nice looking chassis are found here:

A bit pricey perhaps

Default PPA V2

I finally got around to casing up my PPA V2. It's a 2 box configuration that uses a Jung Regulated Power supply and a pretty maxed out PPA V2 w/ OPA637/627s, class A, and a stepped attenuator.

Well done, Nate. Nice clean lines, as always.

EDIT: What kind of power switch is that, it's a little hard to tell?

Thanks, it's not 100% done (the knob at least is getting changed) but I'm pretty happy with how it all came out. It was my first real adventure with drilling and tapping new holes in a case like that but I like the look a lot better than regular phillips head screws.

EDIT: What kind of power switch is that, it's a little hard to tell?
That'd be the big round pushbutton from NKK. It's a sweet switch and lights blue when pushed. I'll get a night time shot tonight if I can but my real digicam is in the shop so I'll see what I can get out of the P&S.

Nate that looks really nice! Is that a new table or have you moved your listening setup?

Excuse the crappy pic, it's not really leaning... but it's a rack-based setup that I'm working on in the Library. I'll try to get a better picture of it later tonight as well. You'd be happy to know Zack that my Millett is now housed in your Millett's old case (the 2$ whore case ).

I knew it! That whore just can't get enough of the Millet and it's hybrid goodness. Ugh, that case disgusts me...yet I can't look away
