Are you serious dude? Or is this just your attempts to tear down competing amp kits now that you are selling one?
When you were building amps (and failed at it) you went after “the builders” and now you are going after the Chinese kit sellers?
Do you think people are too stupid to see where you are going with it and where you came from?
And to say that surface mount technology is ridiculous must be in response to your inability to deal with it?
One of the above amp kits clearly says in the description that you need to look at the data sheet for the transistors to get the parts and schematic. It’s not like they are selling you something with no information – they told you where it was.
As usual, he is misrepresenting the situation to suit him and to direct people to buy his kit, not some other kit and in the process badmouthing them.
