Hello,

I'm new to DIY world so I'd like to start with a kit, the Crack caught my eye.
Since is an OTL amp It does not pair well with my LCD-X.

I'm looking for advice on what parts change/add/remove to make it more powerful on the 20 ohm region.

Also I'd like to add a second pair of RCA variable output to use it as preamp.

Thanks for reading.

Yes, have one built for you with the desired modifications.

I'd recommend the Bottlehead S.E.X. instead, much more power for planar magnetics.

The Mainline is also designed to work without a preamp. The S.E.X and Crack are designed to be used with their respective preamp and phono preamp units. Seductor is designed for the Submissive and the other Phono Preamp. Crack-a-two can be used with integration mod.
