Stonerboy779 Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Took some before pics of my Technics gear before I give it a clean and go through the long process of identifying and replacing all the caps in all of it. Wont bother recapping the casset player though. Will definatelly get both amps and cd player. This arvo I will cut the rear panel because mum would freak if she found I went ahead and started using a jigsaw to cut metal with no one around. And then I shall do a photo shoot of the HTPC. Some pics first though. Technics SL-J110R Turntable Technics ST-X301L Tuner Technics SL-PJ26 CD Player Technics RS-X301 Casset Deck Technics SU-X301 Receiver/Amp (Exact same case as that of my HTPC) Technics SA-120 Tuner/Receiver/Amp Also thought it would be cool to show the tuner in action so to speak http://www.flickr.com/photos/stonerboy779/7984250702/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonerboy779 Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Well pretty much finished the base of the HTPC lots to do in regards to tidying it up and making it pretty but it is now a fully fitted and functional case. The guts SSD mounting (double sided foam tape FTW) Still a bit to do here Hacked to pieces, needs a sand and respray flat black But before a spray just to neaten it, some funnily appropriate stuff Think I may have done something wrong and looks like power warnings and speaker output line up Pretty tight in there Room back here though From the back Some cleaning and organizing is in order Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonerboy779 Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 Did some more work with the HTPC namely tidying it up. Cut, extended, soldered, heatshrunk and taped up PSU wires. Cable tied them out the way and they take up next to no room at all now and run out of the way. Noise levels are very very low qith the noctura fans and ULNA adapters in the future I may consider cutting into the casing so it moves to 100% airflow vs the ~40% it is atm got a few pics to hare in a bit of the tidied up insides. I will unfortunately need to crack t open again because one of the fans isn't properly pushed in which means I dont have an 80mm fan blowing air down past and between the sound and tuner pci cards. It is also the only fan that would actively force air out of the case so I better get on top of it haha. If cupid is displaying right then my browsing temps on the CPU are a lovely ~5C over ambient which has me fairly happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonerboy779 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 This is the inside after I finished cutting, extending, soldering, heatshrinking, taping anf tidying up the wires. I replaced the 80mm fan on the cooler with the larger 92mm one and move the 80mm one so it blew air straight through the pci cards and out of the case. and the additional 92mm fan added in behind where the PSU sits If I didn't have a 1megabit upload I would upload a longer video but well yeah haha. Glad I have sub 20second boots. Also you may need to turn it right up to notice the change in background noise when the PC is turned on. http://youtu.be/P2TMxHNm5PI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
