RE: Transcendant Sound

I built two of Bruce's kits. The grounded grid preamp and the power line conditioner. Both kits no longer in production.

Instructions for both kits were excellent, good color photos, wiring color coded, etc.

Occasionally he uses binding posts that get a bit crowded.

Bruce and others are very helpful on his forum if you have any problems after power up. I have been following the forum for over 10 years and I cannot recall anyone never getting a problem solved. Although if you burn out a tranny because of wiring error it can be expensive. That is the deal with kits.

Also I did purchase a "factory assembled" OTL amp from Bruce years ago. My favorite amp of all time, but he no longer sells assembled units.

For me, his kits now are too expensive for me to take the risk, not being an EE and having little to no ability to troubleshoot if I screwed something up.
