What's inside these aluminum/metal cases?

I have three links below to pictures of amps with their lids removed, one is an integrated, and I am curious to the thoughts of those that have the technical knowledge of amps to discuss the inner componants and order of design.

We tweak our systems with expensive cables, yet I look at pictures such these pictures and wonder what all the signal must go through.

Let me put the disclaimer out, I do not own any of these amps nor did I single them out, I just happen have pictures of them with their "hoods" off, if I had some others, I may of included them as well.

I have a great picture of the Musical Design D150, I will have to add it to my page.

Centerfolds of topless amps. I knew it would come to this.
My mom is not going to let me play here anymore.

Sincerely, I remain

I call this incomplete engineering. Nice front panel and jacks but a rats nest inside. Layout is an art. All audio designers should take a course in RF, where if the layout is compromised it won't work. Proper layout means everything being in the best possible place for the least ill effects caused by its location relative to everything else. Some of the best I've seen are Accuphase, Krell and Luxman (check their web site-wow). Too bad the present Lux stuff isn't available here. Their engineers actually still use shielding and lots of it. The old stuff is quiet, I can't wait for the new.
