Do you have a suspicion as to why this is happening to your builds? As an aside, since rail splitter & output buffer use many of the same parts, the extras would suffice for either I think.

We're thinking & seeing that getting the correct parts in the correct places and in correct orientation gets you a working build (less any shorts, wiring errors, etc.).

Heh, as this seems a good amp regardless of size, this is something to think about. The small size advantage also reduces cost, but it also seems that some (unknowingly?) equate size with performance e.g. in a meet setting... At least until they hear it

IMO bigger would make for an easier build too but w/o the size/transportability advantage it starts to make sense to look at "larger" designs, even if the build cost does rise with them.

I've never blown up a splitter - Sachu - were the splitter chips you used all from the same batch?

I believe Bill no longer offers kits but he may still have some related parts.  I think runeight may have some PCBs available for experienced builders.

Yes, Alex still have some PCBs. I sent Bill a PM but still haven't received his response. Hopefully he still have some parts, actually I only need the perforated top cover. If anyone has a spare one, please let me know. The BOM is right there on Alex's site so the kit is not really a big deal for me.
