    Roughly $60-70 per completed chassis not including the external transformer.

    The transformer was a freebie but you would be looking at $20-25 ish from places like Digi Key and Mouser.A suitable transformer is also available from the Asian ebay vendors for these PC boards or kits.

    Great op amp! Fairly sure that is the one Twisted Pear uses on their I/V boards; both the IVY III and the SE ballsie stage of the Legato 3.1.
