I have built the Pass Labs A5 and F5, and have had questions answered directly from Nelson himself - he is very kind and helpful.... the understanding is to not make a commercial endeavor over his kindness. Regrettably, some jokers still do.
I like my F5 better. Readily available parts from my parts bin and the rest from Digikey. The F5 uses Toshiba 2SJ74 which are getting more and more rare (all the ones on ebay are fake). All parts for Aleph 5 can be had quite cheaply...
Both great amps and not too complicated. DIYAudio.com RAWKS.
