Aim low, achieve your goals, avoid disappointment.
Pleased you have moved on yet again Tony.
What is the third transformer for? part of your dual mono?
Neat trick of mounting the transformers on the side, I use Galaxy Maggiorato GX288 230 x 280 mm x 80mm (1NGXA288) so space is a premium and are wondering how to fit it all together . The encapsulated Nuvotem transformers that I usually use are a little too large and I will probably use open Nuvotems in this build, your on the side trick will help.
I hate drilling the enclosure to mount boards to the covers and have always dropped an aluminum tray in that slides in the T slots but it sits quite high and wastes build height.

Hi Tony,
Each Buffalo's got its own transformer & power supply, & with Paul's design you use both centre taps on each power supply. He did explain why but I got a bit lost!
My case is also a Galaxy Maggiorato (can't remember which one now) & both the left-hand power supply module and all three transformers are fixed with captive nuts which slide into the channel in the side extrusion. I had to grind the heads of the transformer bolts down to fit, but it makes for a nice easy fitting.
Tomek, if you go for some PH supplies, you certainly won't regret it! They're all individually made so they take a while to come but they're worth the wait!
