The Signal Transfer Company: Compact Blameless Power Amplifier
any thoughts/heard one?
(i did a search with compact blameless , btw)

Looks like a straight up copy of Self's Blameless, perhaps with minor tweaking. Quite a high component count, but performance looks pretty good.
The moot question: how does it sound?
If it's like the Self Blameless, it would be very clean, very stable and load tolerant, but somewhat unengaging.

The performance was fine for me.
Pretty neat and very well performed.
Just a little bit of bad moments bad its still good.

the Signal Transfer Co is the approved retail PCB supplier for D.Self's designs.
However, there is discussion in the Forum about a PCB layout error that severely compromises the circuit's potential performance.

I think it might be this one,

Have a read at post #44 for the PCB layout problem, but read it all.
As to the performance of the "blameless" amp, it's everything you might expect a good solid state amp to be, but for me ultimately I found it cold and musically uninvolving in it's presentation.
