MY GOSH it's been a long time since I did anything having to do with audio. Ever since I told people I was selling the Leach SuperAmp boards but couldn't deliver. 🙁 Well, life goes on.
So here's my story of the past...year or something like that. 🙂
After buying nearly all the parts required to build an 8000 watt version of the Leach SuperAmp, controlled by an internal computer and other electronics for a home theater, I stopped. I still have ALL the parts for the project, they are just sitting at home.
Anyway, I found myself unable to find a good program to enter the schematic into the computer and save the gerber file, so the circuit board printing got repeatedly delayed, until I bought myself a CAR in April 2002. The I found myself not only without the gerber file, but also without the finances, and I forgot about the project.
Anyway, I have renewed interest in the project and it's driving me to finish. If I ever find a way to have those PCB's made, I'm home-free. 😀
I hope to be around here a bit more than I have in the past, but hey, we'll see how things go. 😛
You guys rock, I envy sooo many of you and your talents. 🙂

USEFUL information I'm adding to this post:
If anyone has any pressing issues regarding PARTS for the Leach Amp or SuperAmp, contact me. I will be posting DETAILED information about the construction as it takes place, but I do have lots of information about parts and sources. I have some information published, but I am in the middle of updating it. Here is what I have
Collection of pictures/etc.:
Pictures of the stereo I built before and the parts for my new one
A thread with pictures of my car
A sound clip of my car
A thread with a video of my car
