Thanks. They are actually a Belden 4 conductor cable I bought to use as instrument cable but I didn't like it for that purpose. It works nicely in my x0xb0x and I swear it sounds better, but I give myself a big :roll: for that.

It just gives the box a better feel, more solid to the touch.

I forgot to mention, I also put some of the weak/mild Loctite on the faceplate allen screws/standoff threads and put some electrical tape between the back of the front panel to dampen vibrations against the case. You can see it in the photo with the hot glue.

took a thin steel plate i had lying around, cut the edges for the screws, you know.
then i taped it on ground of the case with some doublesided tape, the tape i used is so fuking sticky, it will stick forever. :wink:
