Very nice build! Where did you get the black switch?

Looks like a Bulgin illuminated pushbutton switch.

Bulgin doesnt make black ones. Its probably this one:
Delrin Vandal Resistant Illuminated Switch Black - Red Ring Products Model: VSW-BK-RING-RD [VSW-BK-RING-RD] : Performance-PCs.com, ... sleeve it and they will come

 

[hardnrg]

Yup, that's the one, and that's where I got it!

(Made by Lamptron), I also got the case feet from the same retailer, Performance PCs, I shop there for computer modding parts so I kinda new about the range of parts they do - quite handy for audio equipment as well as computers

Nice build. Extremely nice for a first build. Please tell me you've got experience building other things, otherwise I'll faint in astonishment.

 

[holland]

Those are nice feet, aren't they. I've got a few myself.

Modding computer cases (more than just LED fans lol) helps. I did a fair bit of metal cutting and some fabrication on my current main rig, so I have some experience with getting things to work with a given case...





I still need to finish the side and front panels though lol

 

[penger]

Wow... that case looks like a MONSTER.

 

[Ech0]

That friggin PC case is cool. Is that a radiator at the bottom of the last pic (a close up)?

The amp is cool too. You've got some skills going....

 

[hardnrg]

The radiators are the black external thing at the back, and the blue internal one with the fibreglass duct.

The shiny metal things in the foreground in the last pic are the air heatsinks that I was using on the CPU (Noctua NH-U12) and DFI 680i NB (it's the stock one).

Heh, you can see a bit of a black/red theme going on with my PC case too I guess

 

[Ech0]

Well I finished up my Beta22 a couple of days ago. It was definitely worth the effort (and money). I hit a couple of bumps in the road but made it through....

Right off AMB's parts list. Added an e12 and allowed for two inputs. Wire is from navships and canare starquad for the longer run (front to back).

Well done Ech0 !
What is the headphone connector type you are using?

 

[Ech0]

Thanks Ferrari, it's a Switchcraft Thick Panel jack. It's inserted in the middle of a rubber grommet. I put a larger washer behind the grommet to give it some extra strength.

BTW, I copied the light in the panel idea from you. Always enjoy looking at your builds. Oh, the feet come from you too!! You posted a link awhile back.
