Very nice breakfastchef! Way better than my first Cmoy by a wide margin.

My fav is the Fat Boy.

Thanks! I just wish the Hammond case was cheeper, it looks so much better than a Mint Tin.

Absolutely gorgeous work. Beautiful blend of wood, aluminum, and acrylic.

Echo,

Beautiful work. If I may make one suggestion, it does not appear as if there is any fresh air intake for the chassis. You have vented the top plate but unless there is a way for cold air to be drawn in through the bottom of the chassis you aren't going to get much ventilation. I'd think a small pattern of holes in the bottom plate would be a good idea.

Again, very nicely done.

Hey all,

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. This doesn't come easy to me, but, I enjoy it.

It simply fits with the interconnects I have at the moment.

Thanks for the suggestion. It would be easy enough to add and makes sense to do so. I just never really thought about it.

Hey all,

my first DIY build
smily_headphones1.gif
. Big fun and I'm completely hooked.
The case of the CKKIII is 1mm aluminium, while the psu case is brushed
stainless steel.

Guess which one I made first

.

The amp has some bad hum, but I'll take it to the appropriate thread.
Surely a grounding issue, but I'm to tired to do anything about it today

@ Echo : stunning work man, often its the most simplistic designs that are the most aesthetically striking!

) so more pics to come in awhile. for now:

Photos of PPA. Elna, Nichicon Muse caps, Dale-Vishay resistors, Cardas solder, Teflon coated silver wire and BB 627 OPAMPS. Finished in oak, stained and lacquered. Sounds great, has no noise issues (as mentioned in PPA build thread due to needing a massive metal chassis ground which is untrue). Steps power supply on top at 24V. Please excuse the wallpaper (not my doing).

Thanks MisterX and others that guided me through!
