Received some pcb's today from ebay. Aleph 3 is printed on it.
The pcb's have a goldplated copper thickness of 75um (pcb is 2mm)
My question is, is it a aleph 3? And is it any good in this form?
And, are there mods is can do directly.
Posted a picture of the pcb and the parts list and schematic that came with it.

Here is the Pass Aleph 3 Service Manual...

The PCB layout is not that critical, unfortunately the Orientals often go for an aesthetically pleasing PCB layout design rather than one that is optimum for performance.

Nothing wrong with Chinese boards, although I like to use U.S. sources
(costs a little more) and spec heavy copper. (heavy copper for obvious
high current, but mostly easier to re-solder when replacing components)
Nothing wrong with KK's schematic, although it is not identical to original.
I will post a thread on the latest thinking about this circuit in a day or less.
I didn't said that , just clarified what's what
however , search around and I believe you'll find appropriate schematic/nomenclature of parts
Hi Gentlemen and Mister Hal, happy new year.
Do you know somebody has for sale this kind of species in a matched quartet or sextets?

same to you , regarding day and year
regarding h_a ....... that's slightly more than third of hahaha

Would be nice to see what this will be
Guys the boards came with following power supply.
Zen Mod helped me a lot with choosing the right chokes (thanks again! ) got a question about the voltage for the aleph 3.
On the aleph3 schematic it says it needs 25vdc . The power supply schematic shows a 21v ac (secundaries) transformer. After rectification it would be 29.6v dc. does a psu have a voltage drop of about 4v when using chokes etc? Or do i need a other transformer.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
