@Michael,

I wonder, if it would be good enough for me, to use one board for both phono amps. Would this be an option or are there only stereo-sets?

Hi Stephan,
if only one is used, there will be the risk
those onboard Shunts could play games with each other.
So only double mono is worth the effort.

What about the mains power? Should we use separate phases too, for each channel?😀

This should give you an idea what this Baby actually looks like.
Note;
those ugly grey cement resistors are only installed for measuring
purposes.
I'll receive the nicer ones tomorrow or so...

After everything is proved, now we will go a step further.
As mentioned before, this will not be a cheapo.

Here we go:
One set (Stereo) Boards will be available for 44,- € plus 5,- € package and handling.
Shipping depends on where you are.

The Nasty part will be the parts....
What you will get is this:
4pcs. Hammond Coils 158T 1Hy

This all will add up to 155,- € plus 5,- € for p&h a Stereo-Set.
Shipping depends on where you hide....😉

According to the size of those Boards i've build up a "double-Whopper"
this allows to fit this all in 300x250mm and ~100mm high.
Pictures will follow.
To do so you will need 12pcs. 40mm risers plus 12pcs. 10mm of those
Steel-risers.
If you want to do so, please add 5,- € . And mention it with your request.

How to get this:
Simply send me an E-Mail (NO PN !) by using the link under my picture.
I will answer soon.

Guys, this is great value and very low effort on the side of the buyers (not on benedettos side, obviously). great value for the money, I would subscribe immediately if I did not have it (my own version) up and running yet!!

Benedetto, if you need a helping hand for this just let me know, I am in Munich though....

 

[Joachim Gerhard]

Looks cool.

 

[JBdV]

I want one set, where can I subscribe to the GB ??

 

[Benedetto]

@all,
E-Mail button is hidden behind Benedetto.
Just klick and see. 😉

 

[studiostevus]

Good news!
What are the expected lead and shipping times?

 

[Benedetto]

Good question,
i will leave this open 'til April 8th.
Then do the Bodycount, given all parts
are quick available i gather them within
2 Weeks, Boards need more or less same
time.
I think we should be thru by the end of April.
Yes, 2013 !

 

[Joachim Gerhard]

I have most of the parts so i would like to get a pair of boards without parts.

 

[jacco vermeulen]

4 boards for me (afraid I have more R-cores & coils than brain cells)
Email en route.

This is a good cabinet for the prereg, very versatile, and with full magnetic shielding😀

And it looks like stable too https://www.google.com/search?q=sea...AMYmp0QXds4HYAw&ved=0CDwQsAQ&biw=1415&bih=948

When ordering parts for the paradise phone prices changed according to demand - is that an option here as well?

Just means the Paradise PS will need container cell-guides sticking out, or be a Gen-IV and up vessel.

(btw, the PCB-mount R-core on the image I posted is 7mm longer, and 3mm wider than your beloved Flat-Block)

It is after all for a prereg, not stabilized yet😀

Hello Dubai,
(strange name 😀)
if i recall it the right way, the parts price raised on the way....
But anyway, this will not happen here. Sorry.

Peter,
Payment sent, now I hope I get some R3 paradise boards to go with the regulators. Maybe if you are close to Alfred you could put them in same box and save some on shipping.
Thanks
Bill
