Moreplay add ons - were there still any upgrades planned?

[Paul Birkeland]

I'm excited! I'm wondering how tall that board will be with the heat sink and all?

It fits in the base as long as you have the rubber feet on the base. 

I've got bigger than standard caps and I'm wondering if I should make my new walnut bases a bit taller to make some extra space for this upgrade.

There will be some open terminals across the front of the octal tube sockets if you want to move them there.

This is exciting, I'm ready to order.

Ya know what would be a great idea? Offer a 10% discount on a new kit with the upgrades included. Just a thought.

I'd be happy to build another Moreplay.

I like the idea of a plate or sticker with labels for the knobs. My two cents. Will buy either way.

Andre, I was looking for those but forgot that it was you that posted them. To my mind they have just the right look.

Would you consider sharing?... John

Any updates on this project?

Any chance the upgrade would be ready by Father's Day?

 

[Paul Birkeland]

I'm working on the photos and manual for this upgrade right now.  It will not be ready by this Sunday.

Thanks Paul,
That's close enough to ask for it for Father's day. A good excuse is the easiest way to spend money.
Better than the "Ask for forgiveness" method.
Have a good day!

I'm planning on the Moreplay being my next kit, and would prefer to grab everything together if there is an upgrade on the way.  Especially if there is a bundle or discount planned!  *Hint Hint*



Hoping for some news!

Any update on the update? Thinking of building a Moreplay, but wondering if I should wait on the upgrade...

Keeping this topic alive!  Definitely interested in the Moreplay as my next kit.

I'm an extremely happy Moreplay owner also waiting for upgrades.

I'm headed to Bonneville next week. Right now I am knee deep in carb jets and nitrous bottles. When we get back in September I plan to schedule some time with PB so we can get the upgrade manual finished up.

Does that mean I might be better to wait for the upgrade? I'm keen to have a crack at the Moreplay, given my lack of building experience, need for a decent preamp and fairly substantial supply of 6V6 and 7C5. I also live in Australia, so am curious about what parts come in the kits and whether I need to purchase power transformers seperately.
