Classic Aleph Amplifier for Modern UMS Chassis - Group Buy

My package arrived in Vienna on January 28th - and departed from Vienna on January 29th... since then no new data in the tracking. As I am in Vienna, it is funny (not really), that the package departed from Vienna again. Hoping for the best but expecting the worst 🤔
 
To all the greedy boyz in EU - it seems you're all in the same waiting game with some having better tracking than others. I can see 2 (maybe more?) are showing departure from the US but no local status updates. Others appear to be in your home countries. Maybe in customs, maybe in transit. I know of 1 package that cross the Atlantic and arrived, it seems all (or most) of the rest are still in transit. Please make a post when your shipment arrives.

I have 1 spare pair of Aleph main boards and many expansion boards that I can ship if any get lost.

considering my previous experiences, 3 to 4 wks lead time is quite standard from US to EU, so no reason to worry about it.
Randy, thank you very much for all your effort, we really appreciate it.
 
I was able to pick up my parcel at the post office on Wednesday. I had to pay €8,40 for german VAT plus €6,- fee for DHL.
But I am glad that I didn't had to travel to the customs office to pick it up.

PCBs look great, I love the purple tone. The matched MOSFETs are well-packed.

As I organized group buys (but only for matched 2sk170) in the past I know how much work it is. So thanks again Randy for all your works. For laying out the UMS compatible PCB, for publishing great build notes, for precise matching of the MOSFETs and for blazing fast delivery! And thanks for the "Aleph classic" stickers you added.

Looking forward to gather all the stuff needed to populate the boards 🙂
