What do you suppose the reason was for not many being built? It looks like a sweet sounding amp. Was it the absolute offset issue?70,000 Aleph-X Boards were sold... 25 fully functioning amps were built

i built 1 channel... kinda. it worked!
that, and overall complexity just a smidge above the head of majority of 28500 buyers
For things like PCBs I often get more than one set since I fear I would mess something up. 🙂
My unbuilt store kits are all recent releases awaiting their turns to be worked on.
And I still have unfinished business with the Aleph-X... 🙂

Definitely agree with multiple PCBs. They're fun to barter and trade too! Who needs baseball cards… 🙂

But the reality was it was a demanding project with Big hardware and Big ideas. A lot of fine work was done by a lot

It is a cool project. There used to be an Aleph X thread stickied in the top of the Pass forum that was a good read. Same with Eric's webpage.
The thought of building one of the 4 output versions lingered in my head for quite a while.
