B1 Buffer Preamp

This chassis was made of anodized engraving stock. So the cut edges of the parts and the knobs are not surface treated, but this does not affect the look. I made it for my brother-in-law and he decided to have one pot for each channel. This is no convenient solution, but it offered a chance to make a nice symmetrical front layout. The centre piece I made of smoked acrylic which I first painted black at the back side. After that the logo was engraved. The standard blue LED enlightens this plate from the inside and this gives a nice effect. An old printer power supply is in use with this preamp. This little unit sounds remarkably well. Many thanks to Mr. Pass for bringing another great design to the DIY community! Best wishes from Austria, Martin Strolz
