LeMat, I am not sure if they make any that are the right size for a ß22 (most seem to be more 'compact') but MiniSemi will soon be selling cases with curved edges/corners on their website.

High end enclosure chassis available soon at Minisemi.com - diyAudio

Thanks. It starts to look like what I want. I don't know whether they'll do custom size but a chance, they are in Montreal... me too

My first project, CMOY of course. Friend is teaching me and another person how to solder. We're going to start with a simple LED light board to learn the basics, then move on to the CMOY.

My Aoyue 936 arrived yesterday (still shopping for a multimeter) along with a set of 'helping hands' and a spool of solder.

I can't wait!

Opps sorry misread what the thread was about, my bad!

So it's now connected and it worked !! slighty low but ok : 29.28v

I got these parts sitting around and unsure what to do with them... should I build a beta22, or a really bitchin' toaster oven?

Hmmm, would that be called a Bagel22?

This is one to keep an eye on! I happen to know a bit about this build, and it's going to be a stunner. No real surprise though with Fitz at the helm.

Mmm, Bagel22, I like the sound of that.

Making some progress:

I have since added the MOSFETs to the S22 in the pictures and both boards are working well. I'm still waiting on some capacitors for the B22 boards but I should have those done within a week or two.

How are you going to be attaching the FETs to those sinks, without running into potential oscillation problems? I’m curious as I’ve got a build progressing where I’ve gone down a custom sink path...

The amp boards will mount directly to the heatsinks with standoffs, and the mosfets will be soldered underneath the board. Lead length will be essentially the same as it would with on-board heatsinks, so it doesn't introduce any oscillation problems. In the case of the power supply, I'll just go the typical angle-bracket route.

Assuming I'd like something with curved edge, like these exemples : RE77 W-8 326S Where could I get such case ? I'm aware that high-end audio companies have the ressources to machine their own fancy faceplate but audio-gd seem to use a quarter cylinder to round-up the corner.

How about Hexateq case?

Here is one nice build using that case: Picasa Web Albums - Vincent - Multichannel UCD

how about a few htpc cases? silverstone lian li makes good ones and you can easily remove the cooling fans et all

Looks good ! but I must say it's a bit big and I wanted something black.
Thing is I'm building a b22 with the transfo in its own enclosure. I would have to change my plan and have it back in the box. Sure I have a shielded transfo but most of the people here recommend me to keep it separated. Purist approach

Regarding the htpc case, never thought at it... definitely a path to explore.

Do you think it would be possible to customize the faceplate ? I don't have the equipment to drill hole and so on... I intended relying on front panel express... unless I could find in my area some manufacturer with a CNC machine kind enough to accomodate a particular...
