Summary:
The Kit took two 2-hour stints to build. I was used to soldering, people who are not may care to bribe a friend that can, or at least get shown how to make a proper soldered joint. The finish of the kit is very good, if you do not count the transformers on the top. Constructors with nagging wives/girlfriends may consider the chrome covered transformers a worthwhile investment. A buffered volume control is included, so single-source listeners need not buy a preamp.
The sound ? Excellent. This device has halted my relentless series of upgrades in its tracks, and I would not trade it for anything.
One caveat - The limited power output may not suit all speakers, but most should be OK.

Strengths:
Utterly wonderful sound, easy to construct

Weaknesses:
Limited power output
