| Chris Tsai's Kit One |
"There are quite a few DIY kits in the market. After spending many hours researching which kit to build, I finally chose AN Kit1. Last kits I built were over twenty years ago, the Hafler pre and power amplifiers, which I still have, connected to Maggies II with JBL double 10" Alnico inside Acoustat sub box, and a pair of B&W 801s. I still have the Micro Seiki DQ-500 turntable.
The first music I played on my Kit1 was Narada's 'Yosemite'. I could not believe the clearness of all the instruments flowing out from the speakers and you can feel the vastness of Yosemite infront of you. Unlike the solid states, music from Kit1 is softer yet precise and accurate from high to low notes. I can't wait to upgrade my Kit1."

Chris wins the award for most upgraded Kit1 - He started with a basic kit when we first opened out doors in Jan 2004 He then moved to add in the upgrades - He pushed us to come out with the hardwired boards - Then ordered the TRANS300 upgrade.
This PQ kit now has all the upgrades plus silver capacitors and the PQ Switch to control the dual RCA's.
