Looking for an Aikido Phono Preamp. I am planning to build a NAB/IEC tape head preamp stage for my Otari MX5050. I want to use the Aikido, but John Broskie's online store has shown the board out of stock for ages, and I get no response to availability queries.
Hoping someone has one that they are not planning to use. Otherwise 8 tube P2P!!
Cheers,
Geary

same problem here so i etched it myself.
still awaiting parts as you can see.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
these boards need some corrections as some lead spacings are of by some mm`s and besides that i feel uncomfortable doing such a thing without the permission of john broskie.
i use 2 facial browners for lighting the photosensitive boards and they are to small for the phono pcb
so i was left with some unetched copper on both sides and had to use the dremel.gonna have to make a custom lighting device especially for this phono stage as most pcb`s are smaller.
this board is bigger then john s` aikido with janus shunt onboard.
i will first test this board and if all is well and you have the permission of john we could order some boards, after i take care of some small errors (measurement errors, no connection errors).
