May the odds be ever in your favor

I have been watching diy kits for a few years. I think this one is for me.

Good Luck everyone!

Heat is good, especially in the North

Can't wait to get hands on real VFETs, thanks Nelson !!!!

Thanks Nelson, 6L6, Jason, (and any others who may have had a part in this beautiful project) for making it feel like Christmas all over again!



My alarm is set for April 7th!

..For those of us that can`t tell time..

8PM UTC.. That`s the 20 coming just about now right?

Time Converter and World Clock - Conversion at a Glance - Pick best time to schedule conference calls, webinars, online meetings and phone calls.

In France is + 2 hours so 8 PM UTC = 22 o clock at the evening

Great job and thanks so much. Great choice of timing! 6am for us down under. I was expecting much worse

This Amplifier build is truly a beautiful piece of work. Would love to build one myself in the near future. I’m a novice in electronics, but I know I’ll be able to tackle this awesome project. Instructions are as clear as day.

Thanks, N. Pass

Thanks for the gift!!

Actually...that was the least of my worries (getting more tickets for subscription years). Just wish I could have been supporting the forum more over the years! Still haven't decided if I will enter the lottery or just wait for the subsequent articles for all the nice BIG SITs that I have

You have one more ticket for every thread participation in Pass Labs forum section. That is nice!

..for all the nice BIG SITs that I have

Holy smoke of soldering! Haha typical Greedy Boyz has always prepared something in the drawer

 

[tungsten5]

a most welcome offer.

As a prostate cancer survivor I particularly like the the generosity of the community to these organisations

Quote
It is expected a small profit will made, 100% of which will be donated to and split between the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and the Prostate Cancer Foundation.


I donate to our local prostate cancer foundation since my surgery 10+ years ago

Gianluca,

Will those of us that are unlucky be able to buy the chassis after the lottery?

Thanks,

Greg

 

[triode4]

Very hopeful my timing is right, seems like a great deal!

 

[PierreQuiRoule]

Two thumbs up to Nelson and the team! Thank you!

 

[straylight2001]

Thanks to Nelson, 6L6 and all others who contributed to the cause. These are VERY worthy causes and what a great opportunity & event for the diy community.

Good luck too all...get ready to dust off those solder irons folks!

Jason says... "We've made 200 specially for the VFETs as a limited run, and will see how far they go.

Priority for those 200 will firstly go to people who purchased kits containing VFETs, then people who already have VFETs. Some people might not buy the chassis. If there are any left over they will be made for public sale once those two groups have had their needs met.

After that, we have some variations on the design to be released in the future that can be used for other amps or variations (probably without the VFET text so it has a wider appeal)."

Wow, Thank you. I have been waiting for a chance at this for a long time...John
