It can't possibly sound good if it's not topped with sausage and onions.

Preferably pineapple and ham. I'm allergic to hot sausage!

Last step was to insulate the AC wiring and add a LED power light.
The insulation is done and next is adding wire connections to let the light installs near the power switch.

Not to rain on your parade, but a pizza box is not even close to a UL compliant enclosure. The right kind of failure (if there is a right kind) and you may have a fire on your hands.

I get that -- but safety is most important. Just saying. Fire safety codes are not arbitrary -- they exist because of unexpected fire events that are the basis of the code.

I get the issue. Hence these are prototypes for testing, not a final project.
This is to get them working and then see about a real chassis if they do what I want.

Remember where the term breadboarding came from.

Breadboards are one thing -- a paper pizza box is something else entirely. Rich already recently recovered from a flood -- does he have to add a fire to his experience?

Since I have a fire extinguisher nearby and will be putting the amp parts on fire retardant material, it will be fine for testing.
Thanks for the concern, but this is not the first set of power amps in these pizza boxes and had no issues. Last time is was 10 pizza boxes with chip amps boards and linear PS.
