the smile of appreciation and understanding spread across your face.
Must be great to know how something is going to sound before you've even
made them. Are you trying to sell the kits or something?
LoL there aren't any kits, most DIY speakers and amps are far superior to
the overengineered and overly priced rip offs that crowd the pages of the
so
called 'hifi' magazines.
e.g.classic milestone DIY amps, the JLH Class A (1969) and what is now
known
as the Gainclone (2001), both using ordinary components in a different and
innovative way, and then copied and sold to the punters for 100 times the
price of the components. In the case of the Gainclone the component price
using the very best availaible would be about £100 for a pair including
the
(2) power supplies; the cost of buying a pair of Gaincard amps and a pair
of
power supplies is about £7,000.
I forgot to say that the Gaincard uses cheap components and if you made one
using for instance carbon resistors as I did (and as is in the Gaincard)
then the cost comes down to about £70.
I merely respond to your comments :-)

I must get myself a little slogan
Hmmmm "The link between 'high end' hifi and the impoverished is a
soldering
iron and a saw"
