A few corrections are in order

$15 each for a $2 knob?

Tell me where you can buy a black anodized aluminum knob with engraved indents for two bucks.

Aren't you going to swap them out for those wooden ones for a mere $500 each?

You confuse me with someone else.

As for your front panel, are you intending to rack mount that preamp?

Nope. Came that way. Handles do make moving it around a bit easier. Especially the 80 lb amps.

BTW, that circuit board doesn't look like glass epoxy to me.

Look again.

Looks like there are only two tubes in it.

Yes. The nine is a hybrid. The phono and line stages each use a dual triode and an FET.

How many thousands did you say that set you back?

Bought it used for $900.

If what John Curl said in his posting is right, how do you suppose they got all of those polypro caps on those PCBs without damaging them. This was not a hand soldered board.

One of the things I like about you is that you love to stick your foot firmly in your mouth. Take a minute and follow the factory tour link I provided. Yes Virginia, all Audio Research circuit boards are hand stuffed and soldered after extensive cleaning.
