I live in the shadow of my future Brother-in-Law.
I've got his Aleph 4 as he strives onwards.
He did write a full report on its build, it has changed marginally since I got my hands on it but not by very much.

OK that helps a little i am in US...so now i will start looking for deals slowly...and need to read this...
I am currently looking for Aleph X...any inputs...

or buy matched. and make sure everything is monuted and wired right.
then it will work 🙂 its a easy amp to build. it only takes time and money 🙂

If you are on a budget, are you prepared for disappointment and the costs that that can incur ?
A brave and experienced man trys an Aleph X.
The results are very good but they come at a premium.

My Aleph 4 is not in bits and I have no plans to improve on it yet.

Which Aleph you choose it up to you.
They are all subtedly different but all BRILLIANT IMO.
TBPO you dont need a massive output. With efficient speakers the 25W of most of the Pass amps is sufficient.
If you are happy to match the MOS-FETs yourself, and its easy, then it doesn't cost a fortune to build one of these.
My speakers are not too efficient and the 100W of the Aleph 4 suits them.

Mine are in pieces. 🙂
To thisisvv: It looks like your tube amp is in the 40wpc region. If that
level of power is sufficient for you then you might also consider one of
the smaller alephs. (The a2 is 100wpc into 8 ohms.)
I was a complete noob when I built an aleph30 around 9 years ago.
With lots of reading on diyaudio, I matched the parts,
eched my own pcbs, and hacked together a case. For me,
the case work was the most difficult. Amazingly, it all
worked and I continue to enjoy the amp.
Cheers,
Dennis

brave enough yes...stupid enough NO....
whats the best route you guys suggest...ALeph 2 o Aleph X....
if it is 2 can ti drive a full rnage 8 ohm speakers...

anntoher problem is i live in NYC in small cramped place..so i need to know what all risk ic an take...
i have to look around for the case to see..
i am looking to go Aleph route which one i dont know yet..
I think thats a good suggestion ... i am thinking it will take me easily 4-6 months from now to finish this project...
