Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass?

@erik_squires then why start this thread ?

As usual, this thread "had" an ulterior motive behind it, and the OP as usual has egg all over his face again, as those here are getting used to what he plays at.

As should be clear from my previous post, my foray into DIY was super successful.  Any bias that people have is definitely misplaced.  I replaced a $4000 300b SET for $1200 and got better sound.  I would have bought an F4, but couldn't find one used.  So happy that I didn't.

uhm, just a comment here.  I haven't felt any of Erik's posts are offensive or "stirring the pot", including this thread.  He brought up a topic of discussion, and even if he can't participate in the actual building of this kit, I don't think any of his comments are bringing down the spirit of what this topic was meant to do.

Has anyone moved from a single stereo model to a dual mono set?  Comments on sound and performance?

I’m seriously considering building a set of ACA dual monos.  I had a lot of fun with the stereo build and it sounds amazing with some wide band speakers I’ve designed.  I have another set of speakers that I think would be great for a dual mono set.

The ACA Kit reminds me a lot of the interest and excitement around the 47 Labs (ChipAmp) designs that came along 20 years ago.
