balanced tube pre amp 12AU7 12AT7 with transformer based SE/BAL conversion

info: Dynamic&Passion Hi Fi XLR Balanced Single ended Preamplifier Board Valve 12AU7 Tube Preamp DIY Kit American ARC Circuit|tube preamp|tube preamp diypreamplifier board - AliExpress

i bought this kit from china and built it. all components and connections function correctly (all the correct voltages at the power supply and everywhere else. ) except the volume pot. i had issues there and i took it out. you will have to figure out if you will put a new one in or will baypass it. the circuit is based on audio research and sounds amazing. so right now it is fully built except that the volume pot is taken out because it wasnt functioning correctly. other than adjusting volume i used this to play music with astounding results.

transformers are edcore and the correct specs for this pre

tubes are not included

the IO board comes with Neutric XLR connectors (that i will include in place of the incredibly janky ones that came with the kit). the RCA are the ones that came with the kit and they are great.
