I've suffered a setback folks - my board order that was due on Thursday didn't show up and now UPS tracking says rescheduled delivery date is Monday.
I was hoping to get the mic up over this weekend but that won't happen. I'll see about trying to get the time early in the week to put it together - patience.
All good things come to those that wait.

Back woods John, that's my name
Me an' Grizzly Adams are going out to shoot at sum food later!
A word about shipping: I've received a few emails about the arrival time of the kit once I've sent it out. Please remember that the shipping option is the cheapest possible and that alone can make it slow arriving. There is no tracking or insurance at this low cost either - if you feel the need for more secure or faster shipping, let me know. Once the package leaves this country (Canada) it is anyones guess as to how long it will take to move through customs on the receiving end. So far, everyone has gotten theirs in a relatively timely manner but delays can happen.
More kits available now.
There has been a slight change to the front panel as I now have these made by the board house rather than making them myself.
Two options:
1. Board only - $12.00 plus $5.00 shipping worldwide.
A BOM with Digikey part numbers will be supplied with this.
2. Full kit - $62.00 plus $12.00 shipping worldwide.
No changes or substitutions please.
Please PM me for availability and to order.

I also fixed the mic jack pad problem on the PCB and a few other issues.
Hi Jarrett,
One of the problems I've been having is that many think there is a mic preamp on board. They probably base this on the original concept, back in the first few pages of this thread. So, mainly an attempt to avoid confusion (the thread title was also changed some time ago to this end).
In other news...
The long awaited mic kit will be ready soon. I had a problem with the casting (The thin sides curled in after it was released from the mold) A set back for sure but I'm working on a solution. In the meantime, I've set up a jig to mill the cases out of wood, like the original and I have a limited number of these ready. This method is still too labour intensive so I need to get the molding process bugs worked out.
I expect I'll have ~8 ready by tomorrow evening and I'll start a new thread covering it. I'll also send PM's to those that have bought the speaker testing jig and have expressed interest in the mic kit.
