i can group 2 people with me.

so i can receive in behalf of
- sorenb
- schultzsch

can you make an estimate for EMS/DHL/UPS (choice on you) for thoose 3 kits (mine + theirs) shipped to me ? then i will relay to them...
i think what we have paid combined for shipping can cover the costs for 1 single express shipment. but must be checked.

thanks

gionag...
If you could include me, that would be great

 

[gionag]

as long as everybody is ready to pay for shipping from italy to their own destination i am more than happy to make it happen.

... always if alex agree on that procedure

 

[Boydk]

No problem.
A padded envelope with pcb´s from Italy to Denmark won´t ruin anyones budget

Of course...... If Alex agrees

 

[gionag]

sure it won't cost much.... i am not sure how much your kit will weight, but if we manage to stay < 0.5Kg i guess we can take away with something like 15€

 

[Boydk]

I got a 2 x 180g vinyl album from Italy a cople of days ago for 10,99€ shipping, so yes, it
will be around 10-15

 

[gionag]

checking on poste.it
Poste Italiane Tracked international
you may need the google translate, Europe fall's under "Zona 1"

 

[Boydk]

OK Probably just got a discount on the shipping
But ..... whatever..... 15-20-25 €.... just doen´t make that big a difference.
Thanks for trying. Let´s see, what Alex says

@drpro & @aterren, please send me your phone number using PM.
Your PM list is full, I cannot send you a message.

To others, I almost finished to pack all the people I am allowed to ship to (it means that close to 50% will have been shipped this week when I receive phone numbers).
Once all are shipped let me check the options you propose above.

Good news following my shipping today I got update on the black listing and Sweden, Poland and Switzerland are ok now.
So I will now ship to people in those countries as well (means I have now 8 parcels to do vs. 3 before reaching the time where I cannot ship anymore).
I will update the spreadsheet accordingly.

I wonder if Taiwan did what Norway did.. no matter, I'm happy that things have changed sooner than expected

 

[Alex_twn]

No idea but that's the update today.
I did another 6 parcels tonight including yours .

For those that did not answer to my phone number request through PM please check your PM, I cannot ship without your number info.

 

[Oneminde]

Excellent. As long as things are in motion, I and everyone else is happy

Hi Alex,

In the preamp board, I see the place for UGS module and OPAMP module. So I would like to ask which is the purpose of OPAMP module?

Thanks Trung

 

[Alex_twn]

Hello Trung,
The preamp board was designed to be flexible on the gain stage choice.
Especially it can accommodate for an OPAMP based gain stage instead of the UGS.
So if you want you can design a module with an OPAMP to try if it sounds better than the UGS.

I remember that Eric started to design one in the past but we never got to the end and listen to it.
