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

Can an inexperienced solderer build one ?

I have to say, they do have a point, Eric.

OH, also, have I mentioned to you guys about the six monoblock amps I have in the apartment gathering dust, in addition to the stereo amp I'm listening to right now?

I was just making a joke on the SMPS. I would build a LPS for this amp also plus use upgraded caps, resistors and wiring as @dgarretson has done. What a gift to DIYers from Mr. Pass. 

@erik_squires then why start this thread ?

There’s a reason I didn’t respond to your apology, and here it is.

I won’t be policed by you or anyone else. I started this thread because it looked fun and I like sharing fun projects. I especially like to encourage people to DIY things so more Audiophiles will have first hand knowledge.

I can’t believe I have to explain that. Nor do I need to justify to anyone that I have my hands full with non-electron bearing projects, but I still really really like this project kit idea. I can do both. I can want stuff I can't have right now.
