January 3, 201511 yr comment_666919 Very beautiful build Geoff. Eye catching aesthetics. Polished and modern look. I know it sounds great, asI have your boards. That heat sink is giving me ideas... Thanks for making your PCBs available to all. The KGST is spoiling me. Thank you - I am pleased with it but I received help on the aesthetics, and the pcbs are not mine but Birgir and KG. This hobby owes them a massive debt. Edited January 15, 201511 yr by headinclouds Report
January 3, 201511 yr comment_666923 Well then you are a modestly grand chef, cooking with only the finest ingredients. Not to deminish in any way the debt owed to Birgir and Kevin. I would never had ventured into Staxland if not for the generosity of their work. Edited January 3, 201511 yr by Laowei Report
January 4, 201511 yr comment_666926 I really like that one. I have something very special on the backburner for the "ultimate" KGST and I need to move it ahead in the row of priorities. Today the first GES Mk2 is taking shape with the new PCB's. Roughly half the size of the Woo Mk1 unit and it's fully balanced, with a better PSU and far less distortion... Report
January 4, 201511 yr comment_666928 ... Ring illuminated mains switch by me. .... You made your own switch? How did you do about doing that? Report
January 4, 201511 yr comment_666946 Looks great! What PSU did you use? Is there any sign of the heatsink fins raising the temperature of the PSU or transformer? Report
January 4, 201511 yr comment_666949 My own design; 3mm anodised aluminium alloy panels, thick machined FP. Knob turned by me, Ring illuminated mains switch by me. My original design was a little more ordinary, the style was the input of Julian Hoyes of incredibledesign.co.uk Nice build! You made your own switch? How did you do about doing that? I'm not sure he meant he made the switch himself. Don't be a dick. Report
January 4, 201511 yr comment_666979 Looks great! What PSU did you use? Is there any sign of the heatsink fins raising the temperature of the PSU or transformer? The board set is as the pcb GB. The overall amount of heat is the same, it is more easily dissipated. On the mains switch; the RIMS was to get away from the separate little LED for a change, but still keep the advantage of a large, easily operated pushbutton. And thank you for your kind comments.

January 4, 201511 yr comment_666981 very nice indeed. can we see some more pics of the inside? Report
January 4, 201511 yr Author comment_667023 very sweet now you need a 2 color power switch warming is one color, on is a different color (from joamat's T2 boards) Report
January 4, 201511 yr comment_667035 very sweet now you need a 2 color power switch warming is one color, on is a different color (from joamat's T2 boards) Just build in a small bell from a microwave that does the "ping" sound whenever the T2 is ready to go. Report
January 4, 201511 yr Author comment_667063 you do realize that giving me idea's like this is only going to cause trouble Report
January 5, 201511 yr comment_667095 For a one light solution, what about flashing the light while warming up and then solid light to show powered on and ready? Report
January 8, 201511 yr comment_667577 what have you been tweaking between your versions? That's what my mother used to ask me when I would stay too long in my room with the door closed. Report
