Deuce / Lafayette KT550 new chassis grounding scheme

Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

I am thinking of replacing my Lafayette KT550 (similar to the HK Deuce) chassis. The current chassis needs a lot of work aesthetically and I could use more space for larger caps.

I was wondering about the optimal grounding scheme for this new chassis. Should it have a ground plane covering the entire bottom surface area with copper plate? How,about a solid copper chassis to act ask the grounding plane and an RFi shield? Leave well enough alone?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Pat
