Hey all,
I now need to try find an enclosure for the amps I plan on building and was wondering whether anyone knew of a company or someone who could possibly bend some sheet metal to form a relatively cheap enclosure? I could then look at getting it anodized or powder coated possibly.
This route seems more appealing than finding an already built enclosure on RS electronics or similar. Alternatively I have 2x old PC cases I am thinking of using but then would need to try find some metal mesh or similar, not sure where I could find some in smaller amounts or how much it might cost?
What do most of you guys do for your enclosures, I guess if building Class A or A/B you probably need some heatsinks however with Class D I feel as if I can get away with the heatsinks being on the board itself and not part of the enclosure.
Any tips / advice welcome.
