I subsequently found out that the board in the one I had wasn't the best so I'd be keen to try one again as I have a buyer for my Velleman valve pre amp so might be short of a pre soon lol.

Does anyone have one I could borrow? I'll pay post both ways of course.

If I liked it could someone build me one and if so how much would a finished one be?

Yes, have to confess that although I am highly sceptical about 'burn in' mine did seem to sound a little better each time I used it. The slight bit of congestion I reported when I first had it is now conspicuous by its absence.

Hi Mike

Price kinda depends on fit and finnish,

type of volume control, critical resisters and case.

I guess your looking at a price from £430 up over.

That would be for one fitted with a Khozmo 50k series attenuator, Elma 2 pole 6 way switch, Dale 1% resistors
If you start adding Audio Note Tantalum or silver resistors or changing the 2 x 0.22 wima caps for Jupiter caps then the price creeps up.

Just an idea of price.

Hi,

Thanks for that, I'll give it some thought. If I sell my Velleman I might give it a try.
