In Reply to: Aluminum plate thickness for amp project posted by rogerh113 on June 4, 2015 at 06:30:42:
Ran into one other plate related question (so far).....
I need to undermount the 805 tube socket, and am down to 2 options. I can cut a section of Al tube (1/2 dia) and use a through bolt. Option 2 is a ceramic standoff which is threaded on both sides. I am tending toward the Al solution, as I figure the through bolt would be stronger. I can use fibre washers between metal as well as ceramic contacts to eliminate any vibration or rattling. Is there some reason ceramic standoffs would be better??
