After listening for a few weeks and showing it to a friend collecting LP's (3 records in he immediately offered me 300 bucks for it) im liking this unit so much, im gonna build my own based of the parts i got leftover from this project.



will make a thread about it once its finished and working. case is cut and drilled, pcbs are ordered, parts arrived.
 
I gotta rework it.. the right channel went from great to okay to "i have to adjust the left/right balance" now its totally off, sounds like having cotton in my right ear.

totally muffled.
but changes with temperature. it starts fine, drifts to unuseable and after an hour its fine again for the rest of the session.

something drifted after just 3 months of moderate use.

gotta fix that, luckily i ordered multiple pcbs and parts just in case i need them.
