Hi,

Please follow the link to see the chassis I have for sale. Ideal for DIYers putting together UcD and AKSA amps. All are in stock, ready for immediately delivery.

Please also see the accessories that I am stocking, the quality of the Binding Posts and RCA Jacks with Shields are really top notch.

Those are a very good deal, especially when you consider that all the jacks, iec, fuse, feet and other accessories comes with them. No having to drill, or atleast minimum drilling. I really dig what you guys are bringing to the DIY community. Thanks,

nice website too! like how is it concise but not short of details.

Thanks for the kind words, Josh.

A free service: If you send me a full-scale print for the bottom plate of your layout design, I will drill holes for you at no charge (well, as long is not like 75 holes or something). Finally, something useful I can use my drill press for.

Regards,
Ken

Ken,

The web page looks great, and easy to navigate.

I know from my dealings with you that anyone buying one is getting a great deal and excellent customer service.

Those are very reasonably priced.

It looks like the dimensions on the 130 are wrong (at least the conversions are).

looks great. very nice chassis for a very resonable price. are you planning on adding some speaker stuff as well?

Hi,

Yes, we do have a small bookshelf type speaker we want to sell, it is base on the 1sc, use the same drivers. But the problem is shipping and the cost associated with it, makes it kind of difficult to market. Guess what I am saying is possible, but have not decided yet.

Thanks
Ken

Just wanted to state that Ken is a great guy to work with. Very friendly, up front & honest.
His products are great for the DIY croud here at the Circle and prices are reasonable.
A great audition and source for Audio Circle DIY junkies.

Thanks Bill for the kind words.

Being new to the audio business, I have many things that I need to learn, but, I figure, at least I can be friendly, up front & honest.

As long as you never loose that attitude, things will always get better. You can be assured the crew here at the Circle will treat you with as much respect as you provide to them/us. You will also learn a lot sticking around.

Just keep in mind, it is a wierd bunch here

Very cool. Nice-looking chassis, good prices, and good service.

These are remarkable prices! Take it from a guy who has prototype machined and sheetmetal parts made all the time. Ken, how do you do it?

Right-on.

Hi Randog,

Amazing what the factories can offer when you say 1,500 pcs please.

Finally, no more of those industrial looking boxes from Digitkey and rest.

Hello Ken,

These look like very nice cases.

I do have a couple of questions the answers may be of interest to other AudioCircle readers so I will ask here.

1. On the optional front panel for the Entry 60 with dual knobs. From the pictures it appears this is attached from behind with blind screw holes. That is screws come from inside the case into tapped holes which do not protrude through the front, and thus do not show from the front. Is this correct?

2. Are there any markings on the knobs?

3. On the back panels. Are these seperate removeable flat pieces or part of a "L" or "U" shaped piece which also forms the bottom panel? I am asking to see how easy it will be to clamp the back panel on a drill press or mill to cut more holes in it.

HI Norman,

1. Yes, the front 8mm panel for the E60 is attached to the "U" frame from the inside.

2. There are no marking on the knobs.

3. The bottom frame is a "U" frame, with the top being another "U" frame. I clamp the bottom of the "U" frame to the drill press bed, and drill the other side of the "U" frame. I use a self-tap drill bit so it won't move around - Work pretty well.

You have some funky stuff on your website, that oneZ apeaker look great.

Regards,
Ken

I've tried to e-mail Ken a couple of times and haven't heard back..... someone mentioned in the AKSA circle that the 100 might come out with a different back for Amps.....

are these still available? other options out there?

thanks in advance

Hi fajimr,

Sorry, the power amp config. E100 chassis are all gone.
