    Very cool Tung! I looked at some of their kits, and frankly they seem a little pricey. I take it you're actually building the entire thing from scratch?

    Thanks.

    Kits can seem pricey until you factor in the cost of having to source all the parts yourself, pay for shipping, order parts that you forgot the first time, pay additional shipping. With kits, you pay for the convenience of having everything shipped to you at once which helps a first time or novice builder avoid lots of brain damage.

    I've been building amps for about 10 years now, so I usually have most of the parts I need on hand. I'm also a world-class scrounger. I bet that I have less than $50 in the amp. I have more time than money, so scratch building is the only way for me.
