Post pics of your builds....

This is actually my first full scale chassis work. Before this all the other things I've built came with a finished chassis and minimal wiring. So as you can tell my wiring job is full of suck.

It's not that bad, really!  Could you shorten the wires to the switch by moving the epsilon24 behind the front panel?

Don't forget to connect the chassis to signal ground if you haven't already. It lowers noise and increases performance. Contrary to intuition perhaps.

Its connected through a ground loop breaker. The amp is absolutely pitch black until the volume is at 3 o'clock, then noise from my DAC creeps in from one side. (it switches side if I swap connectors.)

I could do that I guess. I don't think its problematic though. If anything I'll tie it down with cable ties so that it wouldn't move around. :)

Thanks guys.. I think both of you know where I got the parts for those builds e.g. who designed 'em.   It was way tight - pretty much PCB-to-PCB. 
 

 
Probably need a bit more ventilation cut into the top (its like the b32 on right of my prior pic), gets toasty.  All that's left is the PS box & umbilical.
 
BTW those are fine looking builds ujamerstand.

Great looking build you have there. :p 
 
Toasty amps are always welcome in the north. :) Those looks like hifi2000 cases? You could get their ventilated covers, it looks good, and it has lots of holes on them.

Yes you do:)  Got that last board going a few days ago & spent most of yesterday on getting 'em all wired up & in the chassis. 
BTW big green knob was only solid ebay one that size @ the time, it was supposed to be temporary but its growing one me.
 
It was more involved than I thought squeezing everything in (e.g. 4-ch RK27 is up against boards/backpanel, pot shaft barely clears a couple caps, had to make very flat 4-LED protoboard, etc.).
 
But spent some hours listening w/balanced HD600s today & it sure sounds good.  Nice when it works out that way:)  Again, just PS box & cable to go & she's done.
