yea.............
i did shoehorn it into the prototype for the time being with some experiments

glad i did though this is undoubtedly better than the prototype boards
the top end is much cleaner and defined and therefore more detailed/resolving
this is because of some additions i put on the circuit,
its been a great sq lift and a great success

right both channels in now,
the couple of changes proved great improvement in soundstage, resolution, dynamics and goes to the edge of hf without sounding harsh
pretty happy with the sound for now

Looks better in wood than on paper - It'll soften the look of the front panel a lot too. Walnut was a good choice.

was in Murdock hardwood in Newry,
seen a wide range of stuff
walnut was by far my favorite
think i might use some for the bottom of the speakers maybe some engraving

Walnut and aluminium would go very well together

Very nice, should improve the sound quality by looks alone.
