Diy tube preamp chassis


The Dude

Recommended Posts

I am looking for some ideas how to build a better preamp chassis for this preamp.  I was thinking something like the Bottlehead look, maybe even a different aluminum chassis.  But one of the issues I am seeing is how to mount the tube sockets.  If I don't get something tall enough, I would have to mount the sockets on top or cut a hole for the tubes to stick out. Here is what it currently looks like.

 

I have some 1/8" thick aluminum panels I could cut to size, with some wood I think it would look nice. Maybe an aluminum divider between the power supply and the rest of the pre.
