Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp...


Hi, Folks,
If anyone's interested, I've started a blog with lots of photos, documenting my ongoing build of the Audio Note Kit 1 300B SET amp. If you've ever thought of building any kit before and want to get a feel for what it's like, you're welcome to have a look!

Rebbi,
Yes, our family has always had great audiophile stuff. Both brothers currently. Sister no. Father and uncle, many big name pieces in a bygone era, KLH Electrostatic 9s, Marantz 7, 8b, Big MacIntost, Bozaks, Garrard 301, Thorens, JBL, plus many more...thousands of records. Wish I had all this stuff today. My first serious listening was with Quad 57 speakers, tube set-up, getting schooled on big-band Jazz of the 40s.
Hi Reb,
I'm a bit confused. I thought that Pete sent you a new circuit board to install, but now you are sending the entire amp down to Fla? This is getting expensive.
There is no doubt that Pete will solve the issue though. I'm certain of that.
Yes, Pete did send me a fully built up driver board, but replacing my board with his didn't fix the issues. So the amp is on its way to him. (Brian sent me the replacement board free of charge.) Yes, shipping a 50 pound amp to Florida (and insuring it) wasn't cheap, but I think it's the only way to get to the bottom of this, so it's worth it to me. I’m confident, too, that Pete will figure it out.

Pete has received the amp and will start working on it early next week.

Next Week!?! But I can't wait that long!!
