Re: SONIC QUALITY
Until we actually build one of these KSA-50 clones no one will be able to answer that.
But looking over the circuitry, it looks like the Krell can be a very nice sounding amplifier.
The magic is in the details, layout, power supply, part selection, operating points, and others. The Leach has been built in many variations, and I suspect these clones will will the same. Some may be great, and others get started and never completely finished.

Hi All-
Once we get the gerbers of the combined main board and outputs I will have 50-100 made and they should be available in January.
Final price should be around $10 + shipping for all PCB's required for a single channel.
Thanks again for your patience,
Troy

Troy,
Go ahead and shoot for 100. The unit cost drops enough. I think it will not take too long to get rid of them.
Most people buy way more than they need. Some of us (me included) find two is way more than needed for a lot of projects.
I am pumped about this. Recently purchased a 50 watt Class A amp. It has 36 volt rails. All it needs is to drill the heatsinks to mount and my Krell clone will be up and runnnig.

Hi All,
I'm so sorry for the delay, but here is a refined combined layout
of the main PCB with two output boards 😉
Will this do ????

Hey Jan-
Will do nicely.
By chance have the gerbers available so I can get a price estimate?
The plan is still to ship out PCB's at the end of January for around $10 + shipping...
Thanks again,

No. An anouncement will be made here when the final cost is determined.

No, but please feel free to create one. I will personally buy a set of boards for any one who does set up the Wiki.

Just an idea....
If you want the PCB-making company to cut the PCB's apart, the distance between the individual PCB's should be 1/10 inch (2.54 mm) to suit their cutting machine 😉

The company we use makes the bards perforated so they just snap apart. No cutting involved.

"Mark, just wondering: how long a go did your family leave for the states?"
My Great grandfather came over in the 1880's. He was a watch maker and I remember him well, he lived to be 101 just to demonstrate that long Scandanavian life span. He died when I was six years old. I still have relatives in Bergen.

Happy New Year😉
Here are the Gerber files for the combined PCB:

Hi All-
I have a contacted 2 PCB manufactures and got quotes.
PCBpro was tacking on a $200 fee for "design review" since we are having scoring done.
So in this case 4PCB is cheaper and they even threw in .093" boards instead of the .065" and 2oz. copper instead of 1oz.
So the price per board is still at the $10 goal with the output boards included.
Now we need the Wiki to start taking orders. Again I will try to create one but that is NOT my forte so bear with me on it. I hope to have everything in order so we can start reserving boards by the end of the week.
