Thanks Ron. I enjoy it. Took the construction in stages, as per the manual, and it took about 3-4 days. Each circuit board is a separate section and has resistance tests performed on it before adding to chassis and harnesses. Very thorough. Never let the Magic Smoke out of any components. My local Heath Store was only a few miles away, if I had roasted a small part or two. I saw one working in the demo room before I settled on the AR-29. Matched our first apt. decor. Heavy too - with generous sized power transformer. IIRC, it's 35 W. per channel. More than enough to crack plaster with 8-inch, 2-way floor speakers I had on it.
