Peter Daniel said:I'm not sure what some of you mean by those comments, but Pavel's board reminds me very much of a board I made 10 years ago. It was very precise and without any exotic components😉
I think Peranders comment was a joke very much based on the criticizing the 47Labs amp got here.

My comment was a bit a joke, a bit ironic and rather much truth I'm afraid. Not too few people really believe in this.
What IS high-end?
I have my own opinion about this subject and I'm sure you guys can fill in with 1000's of your personal definitions.

Sound quality
Yesterday I was testing this modul against PMA's class A amp, which is the best class A amp, which I know ( I am sorry Nelson 😉 ). Results was very well and I mean, that you will be satisfied such as I was, certainly if you will build it . 😎 Guys from LM makes good work 🙂 .

cost of parts?
Hi guys,
I'm a newbie on this so bear with me if this is obvious.
Can somebody give a ball park estimate on component cost for this design? I eventually plan on building 2 channels. Would this be suitable for a newbie or would BrianGT set be more suitable. Since this is my first attempt it must be easy but also safe for use...
Cheers,

What is PMA amp?
Is it the name of the company? Never heard of.

I don´t wanna be a party-pooper but that amp is the front-end of (for example) an Aleph3 with a basic VAS-stage and a basic push-pull output stage.I am sorry Nelson
I don´t wanna say that basic is bad but looking at the schematic
I basically see Nelson´s frontend and rest is standard so a little more respect please😉
To joends : I respect Mr. Pass sincerelly, 'cos we must to respect all apostles and he is an apostle of simplicity 😉 . Nevertheles exist question, why do that bloody constructers in chip factory's so complicated
and why I hear distortion of his progucts. Maybe it is because, that an apostle is lower rank than The God, which only know to built distortioless amp 🙂 ( and Bruce Candy too
). I was joke, Nelson, nothing ill, I realy respect you 😎 .


joensd,
the rest, i.e. the output stage is that what makes the biggest sound difference compared to Aleph.
BTW, it was not the circuit your are pointing at.

I also would rather like a standard source follower as output stage which at least theoretically would feel more comfortable but I just have to try for myself and put an Aleph together.joensd,

Ciuffolis follower certainly is the nicest thing I´ve heard so far which shouldn´t be too far from your modified follower.
OK, enough interruption from myself.
😉
joensd,
I am very sorry but Pavel Dudek and me speak about this "conventional" as you said class A output stage:
http://www.pha.inecnet.cz/macura/next.htm
The source follower is discontinued in support by me (mentioned on my web), as I do not want to mismatch simple projects /limited sound quality/ with those that I consider to reach very high quality. Listenning tests are done on regular basis.

peranders, can't you ever make a post where you comment someone on their work? All you ever do is point out the bad things.
You're getting really annoying with this.
soundNERD, if you care to read a couple of posts back, you can see what I really think.
The statement you didn't understand was just something that I hear rather often and many people really believe in it, I don't.
It isn't the number of parts that makes the final result. It's how parts are and how they are put together.

It's the opposite in fact. I comment rather often positively. It's not very often that I say that people have done ugly and bad things.soundNERD said:peranders, can't you ever make a post where you comment someone on their work? All you ever do is point out the bad things.

I fully support and belives in this "statement" made by Peranders 😉
And Pavel Dudec sure knows how to do that and he makes fantastic layouts
