Any idea when the kits will be out? I'm really interested in this build.

I'll give it 20 minutes to clear all your stock, Tom

Promises, promises ...

Meanwhile, anyone up for a Group Buy on a pre-drilled Hammond case (same as the one I built)? No guarantees, but I'm going to contact Hammond for pricing tomorrow. Most likely it will be like the MiniMAX case (no cooling slots, though) - we'll probably need 100 to make it worthwhile.

I'll let you all know if the prices seem feasible.

x2, for the first 30 kits that is.

Just an FYI, but I have an ROM from a local outfit that would do the holes on a small time basis for $37.50 a case. That's about $55-$60 counting the 1455N1201 case itself. However, the local guy is not prepared to do quantity, but if that's a reasonable going rate for onesie-twosies, Hammond might even be better with a quantity discount.

This would include:
Case Lid: 5 - 1/8" holes, 2 - 3/4" holes
Front Plate: 1 - 7/16" hole, 1 - 5/16" hole
Rear Plate: 2 - 5/16" hole, 1 - 1/2" hole, 1 - 3/4" hole

yeah, I'm definitely getting one (or two) once they're out.. if I catch them in time.

Just thought that I'd post that I am going to be building the adaptation to this build posted by Logistic. I bought both 12SW7 and 12SR7GT tubes to try. I'll post my BOM, pics, and a brief review once it's build. All the parts should be in the mail.

I'll still have to layout my p2p design once I get all the parts, so it may be a while still.
Wish me luck

 

[smeggy]

Cool, looking forward to it, and mine

If only you can reserve kits .. I'm working so I can't be refreshing all day D:

 

[JamesL]

i don't plan on buying, but it'd be nice to have maybe a limit 2 per customer on the very first day so everyone can get a shot at building one.

After all, no one really needs more than 2 for themselves and maybe a friend.

 

[smeggy]

I promise to limit myself to one board with tubes and one board without
