after a bunch of months it's finally done. It's a k-12 kit. nothing too fancy. I think the next project is going to be either a bottlehead phono pre or simple45.

I lived in post-communist Poland for a year. That was enough.

Looks great ! I like the way you have everything top mounted. How does it sound ?

thanks! everything is top mounted except the IEC cord. That's in the back.

It sounds ok. Nothing stellar. We'll see, maybe it'll grow on me. I also don't have anything to compare it to except my surround sound receiver.

Now that I've put it in a case... it's dead silent.
