This is back up for sale.
 
I absolutely love this amp but I need a IEM setup for work and I don't use this amp often. It can definitely use a new home!
 
I got the amp fully loaded:
 
30VA Nuvotem Talema transformer
100% Pure Copper RCA
Stepped Attenuator
Class A Socket
 
This amp is HEAVLY modded. I spent days and weeks condensing the info. from the Lovely Cube thread and in trial and error. This was utterly painful but it took the amp to a level which was the best I've ever heard.
 
Mods:
 
PSU (with Newark part#):
Replaced the two 4700uf caps with United Low ESR KMH caps (16M6799).
Replaced the ADJ caps with Sprague10uf tantalums (30C8841).
Replaced the R2 resistors with zener diodes as per BlaBla method (18C6023).
Replaced the regulators with Fairchild (58K8936/58K8937).
Replaced the four transistor 470uf caps with Panasonic FC (80K8337).
 
Signal Path (with Newark part#):
Replaced Input caps with gold plated solid 7N copper.
Replaced Input wires (RCA->PCB) with with gold plated solid 7N copper.
Replaced default OPA2134 opamp to OPA2107AP.
Replaced the two opamp supply caps with Elna Silmic II's. 
Replaced the two small 0.022uf caps bypassing the Silmics with Philips (.027uf)  Polystyrene caps. (Ebay)
Replaced the output 10 ohm resistors with Allen Bradley 1W carbon resistors (Ebay).
Replaced the 100pf caps with LCR Polystyrene caps (64K0006)
I'll also include OPA2111KP and the default OPA2134 with the amp so you can roll your opamps.
 
Price is firm. Just looking to get back what I invested in the amp.
