In Reply to: RE: DIY amplifier wood case question posted by krankkall on February 14, 2017 at 14:36:36
I usually use whatīs been offered at the scrapyard.
Old used furniture wood is good because they are really dry and stable.
Even soft woods like pine works fine, if it is of really good quality.
Besides old furniture, good quality pine could be found in furniture frames etc.
I used an old pine kitchen hatch and mahogany inlays in this line amp.

On top I used an 3mm thick aluplate which i "brusched" using a band grinder.
After grinding I coated the plate to avoid aluminium oxidation.
Resently I changed the diy tube-holders made out of Birch to floating o-ring holders. And also added an aluminum cage over the tubes.
Is that a DHT preamp? I really like the aesthetics, even the cage looks attractive.
Regards...
Thanks,
Yes, its a preamp built around old Telefunken RE114 DHTs with battery filament supply.
I never got it quite silent though so Its teard apart now for a 4P1L rebuilt.
