FullCircle, I'm beginning to wonder about the extent of your custom-ing.. do you happen to have a drawer full of them? care to take a picture of your entire collection together?

I have a lot, and I have been doing this for about 4 years....   so some of the IEMs that I built are torn down, salvaged etc etc.
 
So some of the IEMs that I have photos of, are no longer in "service."  (but the "woodies" are not torn down, too much time and pride invested in those)

just finished a Hagerman Bugle.  (Thanks to Nikongod for suggesting it!)  It's crammed inside a 6X6X4 hoffman electrical enclosure I had sitting at my shop.  I'll find a better case another day, time to turn it on...

I've put my amp in an aftershave case:
 

 

Not very extravagant,but it's compact,sounds and measures good too:

Great Job!  What amp design is it based on?



Well,It's my design,but there's nothing special about it.A buffered opamp.It's similar to "The Wire",but simpler,so I think that should be "The Wire Lite" then

.
Deeper measurements reveal noise lower than -103 dB and THD even lower than 0,0006%(that's my soundcard limits).The metal case provides shielding for the components.Here's the schematic:

 
The large caps are 16x31 mm.There's additional local filtering on the amp board of 220uF+1uF(tantalum)+100nF not shown on the schematic.The rectifier is build of 4 HER108 diodes with 10nF snubber caps.

Just like that dmitr. I wish I could do something like that for my first diy amp project. Very nice work!
