Decware Amp Kit Option
09/20/23 at 11:11:18
 
Has there ever been interest in making some of the Decware amps available as kits?  Considering the wait list I would be seriously interested in this option, not to mention saving a few dollars.

Thanks,

Thank you for the links.  I had previously seen the circuit board DIY kits.  I was wondering about the actual production amps.

There has been interest from customers, but not from Steve.

I can see several difficulties this would present especially in these days of global trade and supply problems. If there are scarce parts to be divided between kits and production amps. . . well that creates difficult decisions.

Ten years ago Decware and the world were both . . . different. Now. . . this seems an unlikely practice to adopt.

Understood.  I was curious if this was addressed before.
