Default Minimax is here! [56K hell]

First of all:



Now that's out of my system, I can continue

The parcel:



Let's have a look in here..



Mmmm, peanuts - and another box.



Inside the little box is... more packaging..



Here's what was in there;



Unwrapped



Up close and personal



Full frontal



Tubes



Tubes in place



I havn't yet plugged it in, I will do shortly and will update this thread with impressions.

My initial impression is of the build quality, this thing is sturdy and really looks the part, I'll get better pics when my camera has some batteries, all the above were taken on my phone.

Mega thanks to Jacob (Soloz2) for building this little beast and his great service through out, a great guy to do business with.

The enclosure is great, very sturdy and has nice ventilation.

I'll post impressions towards the end of the week

I have to leave for work now
