very nice design ipod. insane chassis, is CODA making it for you? If so thats a pretty big deal to make a custom case for a customer not willing to buy their amp.

Thanks. I'm not sure if Coda is doing the machining but I'm sure Steve can answer that for you. As far as not willing, Steve used to work for Coda.

I'm going to see if we can use a dark grey plastic for the IR cover instead of the red, as I feel that would keep the look cleaner.

Coda doesn't have any direct involvement with this. The owner's a longtime friend of mine and I do contract work for him and he was kind enough to let me buy some chassis parts for PJ's amp, which will primarily consist of the heatsinks, top and bottom panels. Front and rear panels will have to be done custom which I'll handle through the same machinists and finishers that Coda uses.

So please don't call Coda and start asking about buying chassis parts.

That isn't relevant to this thread. But no, it's still in the phones just the way I've had it.

Really nice looking case. The only thing I'd change is having the knob faces match. The source knob uses a line as a marker and the volume knob uses a dot; why not make them both use one or the other?

Not a bad idea.

The reason for why the volume knob has an LED is so I can see it from across the room. The same with the input but since the LEDs for the selection will be lit up next to the writing for the input I'll be able to know which one.

I'm going to present a few other options in the next few posts. This next one is the same as the original with a script font, thinner LED strip, dark grey IR cover, and stainless steel feet.

This one looks more elegant!
Ipodpj you are the master of desing audio gear! I remember your input on compass design, but this one is gorgeous!

Thank you, but I had nothing to do with the Compass. I haven't designed any other audio components.

I have some pretty crazy ideas for custom chassis but they would cost a small fortune to manufacture. One of these days I'll draw them out.
