Old Hi Fi Amp

    I am in the process, and have been for far too long, of building a Hi Fi Amp.

    One of the things I am still in need of is a case. And a few connectors.

    Does anyone know of someone, possibly a hifi repair place. Who would give me a case from a broken Amp? I am living in Dublin, but am often in Galway. So places near these two would be good.

    Cheers

    You are going to the trouble of building your own amp, and you want to use some old broken enclosure? Have a look at these home made ones......

    But you can also get plastic enclosures in the likes of maplin

    Sorry for being nosey but are you making it from discreet components or from I.Cs, is it just a power amplifier or will it include all the input stages and tone controls ? Is it your own design or from a kit/magazine ?

    I think something self designed and unique might suit your project better.

    I was looking at getting an old enclose mainly to rob the connectors from it. Phono in and binding posts for the speakers. Possibly volume control.

    The idea was to put it in the old enclosure to test everything. Then build a proper enclosure after that.

    The pics shown are indeed cool.

    The amp i am building is this one. The plan is just for a power amp. Once i have that built and working i will prob start on a pre-amp.
