No matter what, the Aleph J will never look as cool

as the original Aleph 3!

(now if i could just get an Aleph P to go with it)

Oh Oh.... There will be a lot of folks pitching the current crop of Aleph30 boards from the current miniAleph GB in a few months for the J version when the service manual comes out!

I cannot imagine how Nelson will beter himself with the Aleph J! The Aleph30 is pretty damn good!

I quess that's why we call him the master.

If NP thinks so, then the J must surely be

Best. Aleph. Ever.

Realistically, it only reflects my personal opinion.

The good news is that somebody with Aleph boards would
be able to kludge the revisions into it.

I don't see why not, but you'll have to think about cascoding
when the voltage goes up.

I find it interesting that no one has asked why the Aleph has the moniker "J". Could it be:

1) that the input transistors are JFET's (which would definitely require cascoding in a higher output version),

2) or does the "J" honor Ms. Pass who is the real owner of the kitchen table upon which these new creations are built?

It'll proboly be revealed in the service manual I imagine!

Cheers,
GL
