Rameish 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2005 Koba is a nice place to pick up components on the cheap. But be warned they may not have the values you're looking for or the specific brand. In other words it's a may be a bit difficult to match componets to get at the sound you want. Pre think how you want your amp to sound and get those componets either from farnell, koba, sim lim tower, welborne labs, well audio labs and martin electronics.

Firefox 0 Report post Posted September 23, 2005 don't be naughty. I think the auntie is first class business woman, tells everyone they get special discount... Not really... If you're a regular customer, you do get some priviledges like buying on credit.. When the boss (I think he's the husband) is in, you can't really get much discounts unless he's out of earshot..
