California Crack

All done, works great!  My headphone system (Crack/Speedball & Senn HD600) finally sounds as good as my speakers (Stereomour & DIY Tangband W8-1772)

Mods are Alps pot, shielded cable for inputs and pot wiring and Dayton 100 uF, 250 VDC poly coupling caps.

Nice clean build. I am a big fan of the Art Deco look. I like the logo on the end bell, I have always put the logos there but I can' remember seeing more than one other build with that. Enjoy.

Very nice build indeed. You certainly did a better job mounting those coupling caps than I did!

How did you do it? I don't see any zip ties or anything. Are you just letting them hang down, or did you somehow stick them to the chassis plate or....?

Best regards,
Adam

Thanks.

I first applied double stick tape to the plate to fix them.  Then I ran a fillet of silicone bathtub caulk between the cap and the plate on the outside only.  When the caulk set up it got real firm.

Some nice, cost effective upgrades in there. Good work
