It`s made off wood and sound marvellous. After a while I decide to give it a facelift. I ended up with 12 mm aluminum plate in front, and change the color from brown to dark on the wood part. I wanted to get the brushed alu look on the front. This started a thinking prosess on how to do it myself. At last I came up with and solution. musicman attached the following image(s): dac 006.jpg (85kb) downloaded 934 time(s). dac 009.jpg (85kb) downloaded 930 time(s).You cannot view/download attachments.

Brushed alu looks fine, but I have a love for Black on hifi gear. I still like the effect the brushing have on the front plate. musicman attached the following image(s): dac 018.jpg (128kb) downloaded 922 time(s). dac 023.jpg (125kb) downloaded 928 time(s).You cannot view/download attachments.

He he,, that was Mr Leif Christensen, a great jobb.
Since you took care of the inside, I thought I could do some cosmetic changes on the outside.
Pics later today when I`m home from work.

Stein Hello Stein I have done the metalwork myself. If you want alu in front of your dac, look for a mecanical firm who work with this stuff. They`can cut it the way you want. Then its just to find a design you like, and drill the different holes. god luck Tommy

One advice - never put the Buffalo model number on the front panel as this means that a new model will come out in short time ;-)
