    Any of these starting to show up yet? Can't wait to hear about all these SDA's sounding better after all these Dreads get built!
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    Had my parents visiting a few weeks ago, and was showing my father the new rig. He asked me what the big black box was in back of the rack, and I was explaining the whole Dread thing to him. I've given him SDA demos in the past, but not since I've been using the tranny. He was an electrical engineer back in the day, so he got a good kick out of the demo. I showed him this thread and how 30+ more of them are about to be built...

    It looks like they are shipping them in small groups.
    Just give them a few days.
    I'm willing to bet these will all go out by the end of next week.
    Remember the sheer amount of people who jumped in on this group buy. It was the largest one ever at more than thirty this time...................
