WHAMMY parts kits and chassis are a month or two off, but it's really happening 😉 (progress picture attached)

Thank you for your response. I too, think that shipping damage to the tube is unlikely, and will have a much better assessment when the preamp arrives on Monday. In the meantime, I have ordered another hoping that it just that easy to correct the problem.
I have a PESANTE 3U and also am looking for a IEC that fits in the provided space. I've looked around, but still haven't come up with an answer.
thanks
We asked HF2K for part numbers that the standard HF2K IEC hole is designed to fit (it seems they settled on this cutout a long time ago), but they were not able to provide a list.
I am hoping this is the correct place to ask this question. Please direct me elsewhere if appropriate.
I am looking at buying/building the Elekit TU-8200R with the Lundhal OPTs. I also notice that there are some upgrade option for capacitors. Do you also sell these (individually or in kits)?

KingM, there are upgrade options available.
Sawyers, yes, we ship to UK.
Please contact the store Helpdesk via email to contact@diyaudiostore.com for assistance or more information. Thank you.

Reason that I asked is that the last time, I was told no, because of having to collect tax and send it to HMRC (bonkers though that may be)
Our supplier offers this option: Mundorf EVO silver gold coupling cap
Please contact the store Helpdesk via email to contact@diyaudiostore.com for assistance on placing an Elekit order to include the above upgrade. Thanks.
Yes, there is some good news in that we can say that it will be produced. But we can't give a time frame. Hopefully about 2-3 months, perhaps before Christmas, perhaps not.
Our existing supplier is working on the next production batch as time allows them. However we're also going to start producing kits in-house in parallel to ensure continuity of supply in the medium and long term.
There will be a small first test batch of 50 of these in-house kits released perhaps before that next big batch, suitable for builders who are ok with helping us iron out any kinks in our production process. If you're interested, join the B1K in-house production beta test special interest list. If you'd rather not be a beta tester, use the "email me when available" link when you select the complete kit on the Korg Nutube B1 sales page and you'll get an email when the kit is back in stock.

Hi,
there are so many cool possible projects in the store - do you have plans to offer parts kits, for example for the power amps (M2x)? It would be cool to by everything from one source. However, I don't know if there were kits available for the power amps in 2013 or so, as they are "older" offerings (based on the forum discussions).
Thanks in advance.

2nd. I'd love a turnkey kit for one of the big FW products, I know the answer is likely 'no' for a host of reasons (SUPER complex to manage SOOOO many parts, not stepping on the toes of the commercial products, demand not high enough, only so much the fine people running the DIY store can manage, etc.) - but even if not a FW kit, something more ambitious than the ACA. Seeing how many people are buying 2 ACA and running in mono (already at $650 for a pair), some sort of $600-1000 kit.
I have 95% of the parts for an Aleph J build, and while getting everything was part of the fun, I know for many it might be too much.
Also, would love to have a formal partnership, products in the Store for speaker kits (like knock-down kits for Mark Audio drivers and such).
I'm not complaining...I LOVE this resource, but just throwing out my feedback on what would get me to spend even more money!
There will never be a full kit for an amplifier powered with a transformer. (That said, parts kits, usually the amplifier’s PCB stuffings are available from time to time.)
Think of them as an opportunity to learn, lots of people have done it successfully, and the reward is a genuinely fantastic amplifier. It’s an incredibly rewarding process.
There will most likely be brick powered full kits in the future, as the availability and quality of bricks get bigger and better, there are more possibilities open to making wonderful amplifiers that have the potential to be complete kits.
