My amp has output current proposional to the input voltage. It gives me very good details and dynamics, but it's not a class-A amp so that it miss the warmth of class-A. So, I was very eager to get taste of #0. Eeeng... however I folded my plan back due to very private reason. Anyhow, I really hope one of diyAudio members will win the bid.
Mr. Pass,
In your paper "Current Source Amplifiers and Sensitive / Full Range Loudspeakers", what wattage rating did you use for resistors R0 and R1. You give a value for the substitue pot but I couldn't find one for the fixed resistors. Please forgive me if the value is there and I simply didn't see it. Tnank you.

I actually used either 3 or 5 watts. It depends on the value
and how hard you're going to push the system, but when you
have 10 watts available into 8 ohms......

Great! I now am the proud owner of a piece of audiophile history and will receive a surprise to boot. I have been a DIY'er since around the time of the start of TAA in 1970 and really appreciate your contributions to the DIY community over the years. I feel privileged to own the first amp of your new company. I am happy to contribute to DIY audio which has been a source of much inspiration. Thanks, Bill
I am also a DIYer who would appreciate any contributions given to me which likewise would be a source of great inspiration. Did I get that right?

I hate angels, with their big wings and their whisperings and what.
I hope the amp sounds like .... that guy chasing the tow truck on the street below me, full of passion.
