Well I finished the Eros 2 today.    This is my third Bottlehead Kit and it was probably the most rewarding.   First off, I still have my  first Eros (1) over ten years old.  It currently needs some attention because only one channel working.   I tried shot gunning a little bit and I am sure if I take my good old sweet time I will resurrect it.   I also have a Beepre.    To say that the Eros 2 is easier to build than the 1 is a true statement.   When I finished my final voltage checks were all within a .1 to a .3 difference per side.   Through out the whole build I made one small mistake and caught it before the reg board test.   Other than that, all when according to the instructions.   I am listening to an album as I write this.   The best hint I could give anyone is to make sure you have a fine tip soldering iron and solder thin enough not to create bridges.
