Andrew, I'm looking for eight large; I have four 300Bs per channel to feed.
Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Although I'm starting just with the 4 (for the 26s) I am VERY likely to take another 8. If my brother likes the amp too ill be taking another 12 after that.

....I'm looking for eight large; I have four 300Bs per channel to feed.
That great news chaps, sorry I should have been clearer, I'm really just after numbers for kits in this mini buy, for the moment. Tho' I am happy to supply bare PCB as long as I can include the output caps. The story is, I have a huge box of these caps I bought for the last group buy and its my money sitting on a shelf and it's doing me no good whatsoever sat there.

What size and spec are the caps Andrew? Perhaps we can help out if we have a need?

Andrew you can put me down as committed for 12, not just the initial 4 please. I'll revert if my brother wants 12 also.

I'm more than willing to make a contribution to the cost of group buy stuff sitting on your shelf. It's not altruistic, I need to encourage more such projects as this is how I learn, by selflessly piggy-backing on the expertise of others... 8)

Think I'm good thanks, I have a few folks who asked for PCBs only, so I will do them a deal to get my current box emptied. I had to buy a box a while ago as I couldn't get them off the reel at that point in time, they are very low ESR Panasonic FR series.

OK chaps, the mini buy is generating a lot of interest, which is great, we're now up to 28 kits.

The only fly in the ointment is the diodes I use, current stock in Europe is limited to 20 kits.

I can source parts from the US, but this will take a little longer and given my circumstances, it might be April before kits start to get sent out? Is everyone OK with this?

I'm happy either to take 4 now and 8 later or to wait until April. Whatever is easier for you Andrew.
