I'll measure it up, but i'm pretty sure its around 440mm or so.

I will be putting two of these Transcendent stereo amps on TM in the next few weeks. Each one is a bridged stereo SE OTL mini beast giving 12 1/2 watts per channel. They would work well in a biamped situation (4 channels of 4 watts each) or if anyone picks up Neil's amp, keep them bridged and add a single mini beast for mids / tweeters. Gosh, there are even enough channels for triamping of you have efficient speakers.

ok, I just want to clear stuff out, so if anyone here wants it they can have the kit for $800. That's a steal for this amp.

I agree a steal. This is an easily assembled kit and about as good as you can get for high efficiency speakers.

I guess if no one takes it it will just get stuck in storage never to see the light of day. A shame really, it is such an easy to build kit that gives amazing results.

How long would it take to put together? How about putting it together in lieu of sleep?  (Just thinking it would be easier to sell if assembled).

A couple of days of work to put it together nicely. I really have zero time to do it anymore. I work full time at TOA, and then coach full time every evening and on the weekends. I have very very little actual free time.

Your ideal customer for this is someone who is prepared willing and able to assemble a kit.
Obviously also wanting to save some money over paying someone else to assemble it for them.
Kits were quite common in years gone by, think Heathkit for one, and before that people built from schematics and layout diagrams (think Mullard) etc.
I built a Mullard 3-3 from plans as a teenager. We also built model aircraft from balsa, doped tissue paper.
Sell it to someone who is interested in completing the project, provide good information, re-list until sold, I'd say.
But good information should include the relatively low power and need for sensitive speakers, etcetera of course.
Maybe you can liaise with peter0c re timing of TM posts?
My 2c! ;=})
Cheers!!

Yeah. Truth be told I have a very little tolerance for trade me shenanigans, so I might re-list it once and then be done. Just can't be bothered! Maybe in 20 years I will get time to build it.

Since you are absurdly wealthy living in Auckland, why dont you just pay someone to build it for you ?

Well, I bought a brand new Peugeot 208GT, in an effort to consume less petrol than my old WRX STi... and the house was a brand new build as well. I'm only flush like a toilet unfortunately!

All good, as long as you're not DOWN the toilet! 😀
