Has the version of the P.S.B. been decided?  Are they being made?

Sorry for the delay on replying, Winetree!!

Yes, the overwhelming majority wanted the floating HiZ version which is understandable. I voted for that one too, and I'm the one who designed them, but it was nice to float the option. For those who wanted the isolation, that's what they get, and for those who weren't to worried it won't make much difference. Plus the shiny turrets look cool...  8)

Mail sent with sign-up for transformer buy

Yep, absolutely. 100v will be fine, it's not using more than +46 so go hard. The components are personal choice and I've tried to keep the footprints a little bit flexible if you want to put something else in a hole.

Ships in 2 batches. Without transformer and with transformer.

What's the Cinemag group buy price per transformer? Shipping back to U.S.A. or direct buy for U.S.A.?
I'm a few cities over from Cinemag here in California and got a price for the 4 I need.
I'd like like to compare or be able to buy local at group buy prices.

It's all in the thread 1 page back
