Jeezo, I've only just upgraded mine and it's obsolete already. Better change the name to BigApple 😂 It's nowhere near obsolete lol This will be backwards compatible with the MK3 PCB, and available at the cost of parts to anyone who already owns a MK3 phonostage or MK3 PCB. |

The power of the DIY community is out in force again!  I will order some of these today and they will be available shortly for cost to those who have bought the BB3 PCB or phonostage as a whole. |

Would you consider giving any thought to selling them fully populated? Just thinking that could be a tempting proposition.

If they are as big a pain in the ass as i think they will be, they wont be sold cheaply. I have done SOOOOOO much work for free or basically pennies recently that i have got to scale it back!! I'm doing a phonostage build for someone, and it's ended up costing me money because i want to send it in the best version of itself. However, i will look after those that have recently bought the PCB, but once the participants of this GB are happy i will then look at a proper price. |

Upon further checking, I think these "Fettler Boards" may have to be assembled by me or Alan.
They are 0603 resistors, which are 1.6x0.6mm in size.
I cant change this now as the PCBs are ordered.
Thankfully, I didnt order may boards lol.

Alan is impressed by it but i like to hear first hand before i "endorse" changes. Hopefully the PCB's will be here soon and i'll modify my PCB with urgency lol |
