Here is a picture of a Basis Extreme that will be going to England. It's done in Waterfall Bubinga real wood veneer with the accents done in Satin Metallic Bronze. The front panel is transparent smoked acrylic. It still needs a few coats of clear, gloss urethane. Rather than all silver wiring, this client requested full solid core Copper/Teflon internal wiring.

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen. The design concept will be the standard for the Basis Silver Extreme but with a layout as indicated in the drawing below. Veneer options will remain open of course.

Just in case you cannot read the markings, they are as follows. From left to right:

Power - Gain L - Volume - Gain R - Select

Sure thing Rod.

 Basis Extreme - $2,995 current price
 Remote PRM-1 with resistor based remote volume - $475
 This includes a separate, dedicated power supply designed for the remote circuit. Shipping is included for all Basis linestages within the lower 48.
 No additional cost for any exotic veneer I have in stock except for the Japanese Tamo Ash.

thank you nunhgrader,
 There are endless possibilities for the chassis design. The only thing I cannot cut back on too much is the height as the power supply uses all polypropylene capacitors which are quite large. I could probably cut out another inch or so.
