Galaxy
Being designed the way that it is, the Galaxy chassis much better to work with than previous chassis that I have had in the past. My customer is very pleased with the result.
This is a “4” rating only because a panel thinner than 10mm isn’t offered. An option like 5mm would make DIY for us without a machine shop a lot easier. The cabinet is excellent otherwise. Photo of preamp/headphone amp project (work in progress) mounted on the bottom of the enclosure
I built a Raspberry Pi-based streaming player into this chassis. It includes a 3.5" touch display and rotary encoder on the front panel, as well as a Khadas Tone 1 DAC and a 5 volt linear supply. I asked for front panel CNC customization - I sent Modushop a drawing and they turned it around really fast - in a couple of days. Great work as always!
I needed a taller chassis due to mods associated with the NuTube B1 kit board. This did the trick..the kit chassis top & bottom plate were used because there were no slots. Worked great.
As you can see everything fit. The power regulator board and two tube based phono preamps. It looks really nice and works well. The raw DC power supply is remote for noise reasons. I use the Galaxy steal chassis for most of my projects. I'm currently working on the main preamp which will also fit nicely into the same chassis.
