Supertex was acquired by Microchip Technology, Inc. DN2540 can be bought directly on their site for 1.30$ and also shipping is not to steep, $12 for Serbia, maybe even less for other destinations. Try ebay also for low or no shipping cost.
I was busy with other things and I couldn't finish mk2 yet so I picked info about mk3 to late for pcb group buy. I hope next GB will not be on so short window of few days, but maybe it's better to have the time to iron things out and test the preamp properly.

I stiil can use irf610 and irf9610 with little change on circuit and it work in my MK2. Or I simple use lm317 for ccs to replace dn2540

Yes, you can use different CCS, but DN2540 (or other depletion mode mosfets) make simple and excellent CCS.
All boards shipped except one, erik777 does not respond to my PM.
If somebody else interested for that last board let me know.

done,tomorow test
You are fast, but I have one concern, to small(short) shunt regulator heat sinks.
Did you set the shunt regulator voltage?
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Do you have any suggestions?

Sorry I don't see it.

i cannot edit previus message.
I am not going to check your connections, but two things are not so good.
First the grounding, signal ground and power ground should be connected together in some kind of a star ground, not as you did, look my layout of the single channel here: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/soli...hone-amp-very-low-distortion.html#post4826430
Second, you need a heat sinks for BD139/140.

Today I try..
Samir, do you have any plans to make another set boards? If so, I would be interested in two or three. As an aside, has anyone tried one of the completed units on headphones?
Thanks guys, this is really cool.
