Does anyone have a source?
(great forum btw!)

Nik @ www.Ceri@tone.com for lightning chassis to mod. If there was enough interest, I can get some made.

how many would you have to make in order for it to be worthwhile?
Do you have the measurements for a DC-30 chassis?

Well, unfortunately, 10. Do you have a drawing or dimensions? Do you want all the controls per the original? It's a lot of work to get one chassis started.

I emailed Nik and he quoted me a good price. I am waiting on the drawing from him. I would like to lay it out with the pre-amp tubes up close to the controls and the power tubes in the back. I would like to impliment all the original controls. Let me know what you think as well.

I moved this to the 30Watt forum, since we were getting into a discussion on the chassis.

Good stuff.

What dimensions are you using for your chassis? Did you draw one up? There are several people here who would like such a chassis . So if there is a chance, can the drawing be posted?

I havent drawn it up yet. Is the DC-30 chassis the same dimentions as the Lightning?

Yes, but there are a raft of other holes for extra switches, controls, outputs etc. which is why I was wondering if you were going to do a clone or your own version.

if it's a clone I'd be up for a chassis for sure - but would get Nik to send direct to me since I live closer to him.
I think with Nik it gets cheaper the more he gets made, so if we can get a number of people wanting to buy one, then it could knock the price down alittl.e

Now you're making me wish I had measured up that DC-30 when I had the chance. The overall chassis was the same as the 15. No doubt I could create one. Let's see who else is interested.

Well looking at the basic layout and schemo of the dc-30 Stephen posted I gonna draw a layout - I like visualising a schematic. So i may need verification from you ampbuilding veterans when I have something done. That said, I won't be rushing to get it done.
Here's a guts pic from acplink:

If you go with a board, start with the Trinity 15 layout and go from there.

Thanks Stephen, will do.

I'm getting a security message. If you will email me a copy, I'll host it on my website.


scott_f(at)cox.net

as soon as my extra sockets arrive, I'll punch out the chassis and make my Lightning 4xEL84. Reports to follow soon.

I just heard that the DC-30 chassis is 19" wide. Can anyone confirm that?? 9" deep, same as 15.

metric dimensions of the dc-30 chassis are
445mm X 220mm X 58mm

After some procrastination, I should have the dc-30 wiring layout finished.
I'm email you a copy Stpehen, see what your thoughts are.

Thanks DAZ!!!! I have been looking for exact dimensions of a DC30 for some time now. Steven had e-mailed me with slightly larger dimensions (which I actually prefer), but it's nice to know the "real" ones. Honestly, in that amp, I'd like a couple extra inches in length and an extra inch or so in depth. I think Steven had guessed at 19" x 9somthing" x 2.5", which I think would allow for an easier build and layout.

no worries - got nik to make me one should have it very shortly!

Nice! I've been in contact with Nik regarding a custom chassis. Have you used his stuff before? It seems pretty nice.
