OK.. I'm hoping someone can steer me to someplace off of the beaten path here...
I need to 3ru backpanels, that are blank. I just need the panels, not the entire case.. I'm trying to get a bit more distance between my output and power transformers on these two sta-level compressors I'm building.
Many thanks gents!

You could try fashioning something with a sheet of Mu metal Danny.
Similar to this - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultraperm-Magne ... 1737wt_922
I'm guessing that you're trying to eliminate any hum/noise by building a barrier between power tx and output tx.
Using some small L brackets and a sheet cut to size or making a small metal box to place around the transformer could be the way to go.
Just thoughts...

One more thing...chances of finding 3U back panels by themselves are pretty slim, but if you take the one you already have down to the local sheet metal man, he should be able to cut and bend something similar (fo cheap).

Ben, Thanks!
I've thought of using a shield, or even fashioning my own out of a front panel.. but we'll see.
I've exchanged a bit of email with Brian at Sowter and it may be that I won't need to do much of anything other than rotate one or both trannies so that they sit in each others null... (I'm pretty new to all of this).
I haven't had much luck other than to buy a complete case and just use the back.. Something I won't do. If worse comes to worse I'll get some made...
Thanks again!
