I have warmed to the idea of MCRU buying NVA. If that is what is needed to keep it going then so be it. I won't be buying any mind you. Well, i don't need anything i already have a phono1 (i have plans to mod into a phono3 alike) , AP20 for my second system, BMU, 6x NVA amp boards (4 of which i have not used yet) , 3 way isobaric semi omni speakers with doc's drivers, several sets of TIS, 4 runs of LS6.
The only things i need are some more low cap speaker cables, 2 more 12" drivers, 4x 5" drivers and possibly 4 more tweeters. That is where diy can come to the rescue. If no LS6 comes up 2nd hand then i will try and make some. I know which drivers doc used, i have shit loads of bison and plasti dip.
My volume control that i am planning is my take on a stepped attenuator from hifi collective (that doc used). I will use more resistors in the lower volume range and not bother with the ones i will never need. As it will only go as loud as i chose (through resistor choice) there will be no clipping issues and speaker failures at any party my kids chose to have when they get older cos it will only go so loud
I still have plenty to do. I know what parts doc used and his wiring stratergies so it's no where near game over.
