[size=medium][size=13.0px]I haven’t heard or read about any kind of audio degradation from a one box build, only the inherent issues you’ve pointed out.
I use two par metal cases stacked, the psu has 2 unshielded 50VA transformers and I’ve had no noise, hum or RF issues, but of course there’s no insurance.
If it was me I’d put the transformer in a small box away from the amp and psu, that way you could still have the convenience of one box on display and the transformer tucked away out of sight.[/size][/size]
