Les those are thin copper sheet painted black ( RE1/Phoenix/FBI-500/CD7X ). For the lower end gear I'm not sure what metal is used for the shielding but it could also be CU.
Heh, well there ya go, that's what happens when you assume!
Foil "may" help some with RF. Don't think it will do anything for Magnetic shielding. KW uses a lot of AL as a "shield" where he could probably do better with steel IMO. On some of the B22 single chassis threads there was a lot of interesting stuff about how to make those transfos cohabitate with the amp boards, and keep everything quiet.
That might be something down your ally, change out the AL between the three main boards with steel as well as the Transfo shields?
Might make the inky blackness mo' black.
