So here are some pics of the M125 monoblocks I’ve been building over the last few weeks. This is the first time I’ve built something like this, it was actually a lot more fun than I expected and has inspired me to make a matching pre-amp to go with the power amps. Both amps fired up basically first shot with no issues and sound unbelievable ! I have a Schiit Audio class A amp but these are noticeably better ! The sound stage they create is pretty wild.
Black & white ebony faceplates
1/4" thick steel inserts were epoxied into the back of the wood faces to prevent any future warping and to make mounting easy
Some initial testing and burn in
Wood faces mounted up, I'll do some engraving on the faces in time to dress them up some more. I polished and waxed the wood faces to a pretty good shine, unfortunately the pics were taken at night so they're a little dark. I'll get more this weekend.
Here are a few rough pics of the laser cut pre-amp chassis, more details on that another time.
