KSR: Welcome back - gut shots.

[Achilles]

Been tucked away for months waiting to be sold. Reason I'm dragging knuckles is I don't have packaging for it.
Hadn't played it at the new place and more importantly, hadn't played it since getting the much better RedSeven attenuator.
Dragged it out a few hours ago.....

Shipping problem solved! I have packaging for both the Friedman and Mezza - both have a much better resale value too.

Ares MK1

 

[Achilles]

Huge!

Note the white caps (5% tolerance) in some places instead of yellow (10%).

 

[Achilles]

Very slick!
In order to optimize the cooling of the device not only is that back of the board where it's soldered a large rectangular trace of copper but also all of the small plated thru holes were added - like a bunch of baby chimneys.

Bloody brilliant Batman!
