Carl,I have been using DIY electronics and custom amps built into Hafler and Par-Metal chassis for years and I have become inured to pedestrian looking enclosures containing circuits that are above average in performance. After almost a 4 year wait I have received my latest custom amp built into a Superphon DM200 chassis with a gold face plate. This is a big change for me as all previous amplifiers have been an unrelieved black in color. I guess I like gold, now all I have to do is come up with a matching gold face plate on a preamp chassis for my new preamp. This is my New years project,I've got my Jensen 4pole caps and the 200watt toroid I'm going to use in the power supply.
