Nelson is okay with people using his published designs if - and only if - it's not for commercial interest AND it must be clearly stated that the item is a clone and not the actual thing. The latter helps avoiding that people mistake fake/counterfeit/replica items (and their performance) with the real product.

to those who think this is ok
no1, he is using the pass name to sell his product
no2 ,wether he is making a big profit or not he is using a schematic that was given to us on this forum in good faith with strict orders against commercial use
"bozos" like this only care about themself /dollars and will ruin it for the rest of us who really do appreciate mr pass and his contributions to this site/our community

Shorted turn?
Is there a potential shorted turn on the transfos (green wire to mounting screw of transfo) according to one picture?...
From ebay item title its states "F5 Amplifier" so it is using Pass product name to advertise its product...
Other ebay sellers do the same thing even for other brand names but it is not a justification to make it acceptable...

F5 is no trade name. how many DVD players is named DVDXXXX?
or CD players name CDXXX?
I said "Pass product name" not Pass name. Anyway, it is only rethoric, the intention is the same since everybody knows that "F5" for an audio amplifier means "Pass F5 amplifier"... I am not talking about legality but more ethics...
i agree it chould not be sold for profit. dont get me wrong.
What about the possible shorted turn...?

The advert is MISLEADING. It should clearly state that this is a DIY build of the Pass design.
There are a LOT of guys on E-Bay that do not have English as their first language and could buy this thinking that they are buying an original Pass unit.
Nothing wrong with selling your CLONE in this case as long as it is clearly sold as a DIY CLONE.

Couple of my best clients requested to assemble this because these amplifier is on of the best CLASS A and they have paid arround 700USD to get one.
"My best clients..."?
"My best clients..."?
he has a e-bay shop. by clients i guess he means costomers
and regarding the amp. yes it is one of the best
i'm enjoying this amp for hours every day
well. not this(his) amp. but my own F5
