Back from the dead.
I've built another two since this thread was last active. The group buy died and some German asshat ran off with 6500 euros of our money...
Any way the group buy for the PSU pcbs has been reinstated and details are to be found here.
Paradise PSU group buy- its alive

Power supply boards are here, I've shipped a few out to early responders, yours are in the post Alan.
I think I'll end up with a couple of sets spare for anyone who missed out, £24+ p and p for a set of four boards. Well worth it, as they build to a spectacularly quiet choke regulated psu.

Simon, I'll take a spare set if there's still one going please.
PM payment details and I'll send my address.

I've been tinkering with a new toy.
Tis a little square wave generator that can be used for stimulating ringing in transformers and chokes to help set optimum snubbing values.
Works well the numbers you want for the quietest paradise psu are given above

DIY phonostage.
No, I wouldn't say it is suited as a first time project - not even a second one - maybe an ambitious third one. It's not exactly a budget build either.
