after router work and initial sanding. Notice superior sanding work here compared

There is plenty of bracing in this enclosure. Michael also made sure there

Also, Michael has
eliminated the multiple caps paralleled within most amps and substituted a
more costly heavy duty JJ Surface Mount 500V 40-20-20-20uF cap. This will
add reliability and clean up the interior. Clean top layout - JJ cap view
