    Thanks,

    The mod can be separated into FIXED output only -> Variable output -> Headphone output. So the fixed output can be modded with having to add the others. But you can't do the headphone of variable output mod, without doing the fixed mod.

    It's supposed to be a hobbyist DIY project to occupy the time spent indoors for the winter . Where is the fun in getting it done by someone else?
    Anyhow, I am sure we can come to an arrangement.

    Stan,
    As a long standing confirmed fan of the Caiman/Gator can I put my name down for one of your kit of parts and, subject to confirmation by the gentlemen concerned, can you also put Gaz and Covenant's names on 2 more please - first come, first served and all that .
    TIA,
    Dave.

    See HiFiCollective - don't know how their prices compete but we're not talking mega-bucks are we? .

    Stan,

    Put me down for a kit too. I have 2 Gators. It will be interesting to compare the differences.

    Default Caiman/Gator kits

    Stan,
    I can now confirm our definite requirement for two such kits (fully monty, both outputs) and hope to make it 3 later tonight. To keep the costs down we would want all 3 kits shipping to the same address to be advised later.
    Cheers,
    Dave.

    If the stuff can be got from "HiFi Collective," then if Stan can provide a list, it's easy to order from them directly - the P&P isn't very high either and delivery extremely prompt (I've used them a lot recently).
    I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
    I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?
