Building the Audio Note Kit 1 SET amp...

Great news that they've finally gotten to the bottom of this. I hope your listening trouble free very soon! Thanks for the update.

I'm very happy for you Rebbi that you have finally resolved the problem. We are ALL still on pins and needles, hoping that the amp will work with the Decapos but the fact that you did everything on your part correctly must give you some relief and satisfaction that it at least wasn't you which I'm sure was somewhere in the back of your mind, kudos to you and please keep us updated.

Oh my Rebbi you are in for a great surprise.

Tubegroover,
As I said, my greatest worry was that Brian and Pete wouldn’t be able to reproduce the problem - like those times I've brought my car in to the shop with a funny noise and the mechanic couldn't reproduce it. As soon as they confirmed that there was a real issue, I was relieved because I knew they'd take care of it. Brian said, "I'll make sure you're happy."

Almarg: such an interesting article, thanks.

Seikosha and Mikirob: Thanks for the good wishes. And Rob, really sorry my Stereophile sub lapsed. I'd like to read that Tekton Enzo review and may have to pick up a news stand copy.

Rebbi,
I have been waiting for your news, and I am really happy to hear that the problem is solved. I am really anxious to see you loving yours as I do mine.
John
