Thanks!  The box used to be a cell phone diversity antenna amplifier
housing.  I picked it up at a scrap yard for about $15, then did a
little finish work and built an amplifier into it.  The amp is an
LM3886 IC based circuit taken right off the ap note for the IC.  It
will deliver about 30W per channel.  The box is all aluminum, and the
amp chips are quite efficient (class B) so the whole thing never even
gets warm.

It is small, but quite heavy.  I think it weighs around 25 lbs.  I sort
of overbuilt the power supply with a 330VA transformer and 160,000 uF
total capacitance.

I'll have to do something about that volume control knob one of these
days...
