Aluminum. Never steel for tube amps. Steel is magnetic and attracts leakage flux from the transformers and sends it everywhere to what's attached to chassis ground.
Suggestions for side wood panel selection / choice for a custom 2A3 build...
The main chassis will be metal. Left and right sides will be wood.
Current options for the main chassis are black powder coated steel, anodized / brushed aluminium, or stainless steel.
I'm looking for suggestions on wood (type / color / grain) pairings for each metal chassis type / finish?
Your favorite(s) be they commercial or custom builds? If you have images to share, even better!!!
My preference is for understated, refined, and modern...
At present, I do not need to match with an audio rack or console or other furniture / room color choices.
Thanks!
[Note: this is a 4 chassis build]
