Very nice, Ferrari! What kind of attenuator/pot is that? Are you going to shaft it to the front or is that a temporary position?

The volume control is an old DACT CT2/4-channel version I have in my parts bin for a while, housed in a small metal case.
I placed it near the input connectors to keep the signal paths as short as possible.
Extension shaft will be used to connect it to the volume knop on the front panel.

Ferrari, is that the maggiorato version of the galaxy or the "regular" one?
Looks really awesome! I have plans( in a distant future, when money allows...) to build a balanced B22. I'm studiing heatsinks and all because I want the full 50W per channel for speaker duty!
Is the attenuator case DIY or did you buy it like that?

MASantos, the enclosure is not from the Galaxy family. It's a Slim Line 2 Unit with 10mm faceplate.
The small attenuator case is partly DIY. The top and bottom metal parts (a kind of U shape) are bought from an electronics dumpshop locally. I made the front and back plates out of 2mm aluminum to keep other parts of this small case together.
If you go for the full 50Watt per channel for speaker duty, you should consider off-board heatsinks. It really needs that!

@stixx, LOL... that wrist band is my Super Breitling ESD ...
naamanf is right, it's a ESD grounding strap. Same as my work place (table, chair), it's connected to ground.
@Mazuki, I will complete that amp in the coming weekend. Pics with the faceplate will follow in a couple of days.
