i don't have the experience but many do at DIYAudio.com in the Pass forum. Nelson posts there frequently. The Chinese knock offs can be problematic from what I have read there. Good luck with your build.

Welcome Shiva! I have been developing an interest in the Chinese class A boards myself. I don't think I have the skill to build one though.  :(

I've heard good reports on this pre-assembled amp based on the 1969 Hood circuit:

I liked this feature, but dislike the Krell logo since they are made in China at many years and price dont droped.

Why not just get the Pass-approved boards from the DIY Audio store?  They're cheap enough, and very well made:
