Not really an audio build, but audio related, since my temperature regulated PSU now runs cooler and virtually noiseless and thus, my PC is now suitable for music listening (PSU was the only component which I could hear from my PC).
As you can see, I still have to do the cosmetics, like painting the whole thing black (black PSU is already on the way).
This was my first Tread. It turned out nice, but I wish I had mounted it in it's own case and used a transformer.
My Pimeta. I should have used adapters, but you all know how it is when you are excited and want something done. I might go back and remount them with adapters later.
Here's some pictures of my 90% completed Dynalo. It's taken me over a year, but I'm having fun with it.
The case still needs to be powdercoated and will eventually match the Conrad heatsinks. Wiring was hooked up temporarily and it does sound nice. Final wiring will be shielded and routed under the two pcb's, almost to the point where it will not be visible.
Looking forward to working on my Dynahi now. That one's also been under construction for over a year and is only about 50% done.

bryerd, looks like you have a vandal-resistant LED switch.
Is it momentary on? The power rating of those type of switches arent usually that high, what's yours used for?

I envy you guys who have the place to work on external cases. The place that i'm living in right now does not have this kind of privilege. I feel so sorry every time i saw my naked amps.
Anyway, why is the legs of the film cap on your pimeta on the ground channel so long? XD
Haha. I have no idea. I hadn't even recognized it. I will fix it when I get back home. Anyways, I don't care too much about what the actual circuit looks like. I care a lot more about the case. My grandfather has a workshop that we do all of this stuff in.
It was my first attempt at casing an amp up properly. I think it turned out great. I will get better with practice.

Yes, that's a Bulgin LED momentary switch. The main toroid is inside the black box in the middle of the amp along with a small 5V DC wallwart that's been taken apart for space savings. The 5V DC supply powers up the momentary on/off circuit that switches two relays turning the main power supply and LED's on and off. This is the same circuit that wooderson used in his PPA.
Also inside the black blox is a separate compartment that houses AMB's epsilon-22 muting circuit and the cross-feed circuitry. That's explains the three smaller knobs.
