Hi, I finally pulled the trigger on parts for a tc15 build and now it's time to plan out my chassis and cabinet. From what I've seen in the Trinity gallery it appears that people are doing combos both as chassis mounted flat and vertically (knobs on front/knobs on top) and then the majority of people seem to be doing the head cab thing. I'm intending to build a combo with the chassis vertical and I'm wondering if the dimensions of the chassis should be changed (made shorter) because the space for tubes is not needed on top? Also, I'm going to use the Trinity transformer set and I'm curious how sensitive they are with placement in terms of noise. This is my 2nd amp build and I'm very excited based on the many positive reviews and soundclips of this amp. You guys have a great forum here!

The trinity Combo chassis is 20" W X 6" D X 2.5" H so there's not a lot of extra space already. The transformers are not ultra sensitive either, but you should test before you cut a chassis or buy one.

Thanks for the speedy reply Stephen. I'm assuming that If I go with the transformer layout posted in the resource section I should be good to go, does it matter which way it is rotated (should the OT be closer to the front of the chassis or the back) And lastly, how do I go about purchashing the transformers should I just send you a personal email? Thanks again

Brandon
