Managed to get a nice PCB sent over from Craigtone USA. This is Craig's design, The same Craig who designed the BB3 PCB for us. From what I know, it's a MM phonostage and uses 3x ECC83, so while I await deliveries I thought I'd do a bit of stuffing. Unfortunately it seems I am out of a few values of resistors, so I'll order the ones that I need next time I do a parts order.   |

I think he does all aspects of HiFi to be honest. Amps etc. Also seen that he does repairs. He sent this over and asked me to have a listen.....just got to build it first lol. |

Maybe I should build a BB3, at least it will take my attention away from the Lenco. Come to think about it that may not be a bad idea especially as I have mastered my soldering technique....not!
