Is there someone in Australia that can build a Red Baron/Tube-i-zator DAC? Brisbane?

[Kang Kel]

Unsure if this is the right place to ask but I have had a few PCB's lying around for years now. Looking to finally pull the trigger and get a build under way but I my electronic knowledge is 0. I can solder, that is all.


Is there some in Australia, preferably Brisbane that can assist with the build. I would of course pay you for your time.


I have the PSU PCBs, Red Baron PCB and Tube-i-zator PCB. I don't have the Salas shunt PCB's but I believe they are easily available.

Have you tried -East coast Electronic Repair Shop -Brisbane repairing electronic equipment since 1987 ?


No wonder you have problems accessing electronic repairs I have never come across so many job offers for repair technicians in your area .


If I was 50 years younger and single I would be looking out my passport now.

Never heard of them to be honest. I haven't had much luck with actual repair businesses here in Brisbane.


I am more wanting an experienced enthusiast who has built one before or knows how to tinker.

So you are looking for a local (Brisbane ) audio technician or experienced amateur ?

Based on my experience an experienced amateur would be more qualified than the tech's here in Brisbane. Most of them would not be familiar or competent with valve gear.

All I can say is no wonder there are so many job offers in Brisbane !

Late to this call.

If there's still a need you could check in with Nigel at Speaker Bug. There's at least one example where he's done a build on behalf of another:
Nelson Pass First Watt M2 - Schematics and Lids Lifted - StereoNET
Nice piece of work as well.

I'm still a journeyman and have a serious back log of projects and shortage of time. So, I'm not in a position to put myself forward. All the best though.
