Lol so it seems. Pretty bummed as I have a bunch of stuff I'm working on, that is going to be delayed for some time.
Is it the raw sheet stock that he ran out of?

Yeah, hasn't gotten around to ordering more yet. They source the sheet metal and extrusion separately. During the pandemic, sourcing the aluminum was a real problem.
Dave is a gem, thank you for sharing your chassis maker with us! Sorry we exhausted their supplies though lol, hopefully they'll be able to source more materials soon!Lol so it seems. Pretty bummed as I have a bunch of stuff I'm working on, that is going to be delayed for some time.
@LOrdGwyn Thanks for the up date.... looking goodI'll get it done today and let you know. I have to update the build document as well, update the schematics, and add a change log at the end.
Just FYI because of all the Aegis builds, Dave at Landfall is currently running low on material, so chassis may be delayed for some time. This means my own personal projects are going to be delayed too
It’s great isn’t it. I was thinking the same thing today, really love the Aegis. As an illustrator/ photographer I work from home everyday… it’s very easy to become distracted and just listen to the music…Its a rare work from home day for me and this morning I'm still feeling so blown away by how good the Aegis sounds. Enjoying it with the Caldera and I'm barely getting any work done as I'm so distracted by the music
I envy that you get to WFH everyday but I think I would end up being way to distracted listening to music.It’s great isn’t it. I was thinking the same thing today, really love the Aegis.

For me, most of the time, the music provides the energy or the calm needed depending on the type of subject I’m working on. It’s my inspirationI envy that you get to WFH everyday but I think I would end up being way to distracted listening to music.
Thats why in the office I can only listen to the Bokeh. With the Caldera or AC I do notice myself getting too distracted as well. The Bokeh is just all around a very fun listen and not as distracting.
I love the funky look of the commercial unit. Is the volume knob wood or metal? Would be cool (and fitting) if the volume went to “11”!Snuck back into the ZMF room a couple times to hear my HD800S on the one hooked up to the Yggdrasil, since I have a Yggdrasil at home. What a pairing! Can't wait to get it on top of my rack at home.

Nice. Love the knob design. Very cool.It's wood. In these prototypes, the knob is teak, but plan is for it to be walnut in the final version, which is a bit darker and gives a more bold look. Same for the power button.

Speaking of wood knobs. I just got this in for mine. Unfortunately, the hole isn’t deep enough. We failed to discuss this. So I need to figure out the best way to make it deeper without breaking it. Guy who made it does custom guitar knobs. He did a custom one for me using same dimensions as the knob I have. I assume the hole depth he bore is meant for a guitar. Pretty cool for $20.

I don't like the fascia of the commercial unit, but that won't stop me buying one. I've wanted an Aegis for ages. The alliteration is my gift...I love the funky look of the commercial unit. Is the volume knob wood or metal? Would be cool (and fitting) if the volume went to “11”!
The shaft is perfect for the knob spec’d in the BOM. I’d prefer not to file it down if I don’t need to.That's a problem in general with the longer shaft length of the Alps Blue Velvet Pot. I filed the shaft on mine down so that the knob would fit more flush.
