TextureManThey look incredible! That's some really nice design work man. Genuinely nicer than the majority of real audio products.

TextureManthose sure are purty.
maybe needs some vent holes on the top side for heat to flow out more efficiently while the side holes allow cooler air in. XLR for those of us whole love their balanced circuitry?

bigshelThank you for your response, and I know about that holes, this is just concept, XLR? I am not sure, its really big difference?

TextureManRE: XLR... that's a whole can of worms argument, haha. Some say "yes" others say "no". I'm a fan of balanced. All just suggestions though. I like the design.

TextureManOh, since it's an amp only, gotta have a matching DAC concept too. (that'll look super sweet!!).
P.S. One of these companies should hire you to design the cases for their stuff.

SkyyMHello, thank you :-) Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Maya, Autodesk 3DS Max, thats for modeling, and for rendering VRAY and right now Keyshot 7 :-) half of the job is post production in Photoshop.
But, seriously, its not about programs:-) learn just one of them properly, and you will be king:-)

TextureManYou're self-taught then? I'm fairly decent with photoshop having been messing around with it half my life but modelling programmes seem to have a far steeper learning curve. I'd assume you can't so haphazardly discover how to achieve certain effects/results as well, it must require a bit of reading?
You genuinely need to get this seen by someone who works for Massdrop. I have no need for a headphone amp but neither that nor a level of debt I really should not have allowed myself to accrue could get in the way of me owning one of these.

SetnakhtHello Setnakht, again thank you :-)
Yeah, you right.
I remember when I am first time open 3D modeling software and try create something :-) Damn, I dont know anything about it, but what else you can do, when you got in your heart passion, You need just break the barriers :-)
Since I was young, I am still young but when I was younger, I always want to create something, but without money you cant do big things. The biggest barrier is visualization of your idea. So I am just ask myself, how can I show my ideas for people? 1. I can draw ( it will looks shitty ) 2. I can create it and show it off ( not enough money ) 3. Someone can create 3D visulization of your product / idea ( well, not enoug money, probably big chance of making some shitty sketches ) OR, you can learn how to create 3D Visualization of your product, ( if you know how, then you can create anything, you can spend money for prototype, or buy lolipop, theres really not big chance to say NO )
So, I am just start with some free videos from youtube, there is not to much QUALITY CONTENT, even when you buy some tutorials:-) I know what I am talking about :-) when you really trying find something, its pretty hard, but you can still find one or two good tutorials which give you more answers:-) its all about know how, and everyone wants keep their secrets:-) I think best way how to gain some quality knowledge is working or trying working in this industry...
Actually, I am gonna really hard work on, first prototype. Price range $199-$299.
Wish you all the best, break the barriers, if you need something let me know :-)
I NEVER READ ANY BOOK IN MY LIFE ( I got just one book about design, just for nice pictures :-) )

TextureManYou mean this is going to be a real Massdrop product?! Good news indeed, I'll start saving now haha.
Have you used a 3D printer before? Very cool technology, I saw quite a cheap consumer model not long ago that's supposed to be good too. Must be cool for people with your skills to be able to take an idea further still than digital modelling and easily create your own actual, physical models - even if they're only early-stage miniature representations.
