I built my amplifier system with a separate power supply and separate monoblock final stages with big radio station transmitting tubes and a separate SET with its own separate power supply and, of course a separate preamplifier. If I had built it into one cabinet I could never manage the weight of it all even with my years of amateur bodybuilding. In addition, if something needs to be repaired or I figure out an improvement in the design, it is much easier to take out one chassis and fix it.
