Waiting for my neck muscles to bulk up a bit. The plywood sides are 1" thick and the Mahogany pieces are 3/4" thick even though they look thinner since I rabbeted the edges. Then of course, there's the drivers/crossover/etc. I think they weigh about 20 lbs each... maybe a little more.

It's the zaph audio SR71 design. The cabinets are african mahogany on the front, top, and rear. The rest is birch plywood. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4070/...9832760a_b.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4048/...4b45f199_b.jpg

Nice!

Perhaps a shoulder mount solution would be the way to go.

The big guy below should be no stranger to you guys as it's the very popular σ11. Together they form a very musical combination which is very hard to beat at their price range. I thank Ti, Dhaninugraha and Psychoaudio for making this happen.

Sort of gives a new meaning to a "Tupperware Party". Suburban ladies, move over!

Finished beta-22 + sigma-22. This thing dwarfs my dorm room. The whole thing is made from 3/16" scrap aluminum that I rescued from the shop at school. It was a little beat up, and has some dings that I couldn't sand out, but that adds character. The finish is just 600 grit with an orbital sander. It is and is held together with aluminum L-bracket at the corners.

I have a Valab stepper, and amphenol jacks, with a neutrik powercon umbilical. The switch is a bulgin latching model, and is connected to a relay.

The amp is 3 channel, not balanced even though it has a 4pin xlr jack. I just used xlr to negate the short problems with TRS and 4 pin so I don't have to recable my phones again or make new cables if I go balanced.

I will post better pics when I can borrow someones camera.

Here's the birth of a Power Supply. I got my transformer in and hooked it up. It outputs +/-400V and +/-15V. So far so good. The initial tests went well. Hopefully, I'll get it hooked up to the amp tomorrow.

Here a pic...

PS Nice construction job tintin47. Was that done with a CNC?
