This looks like a great piece of kit. linkaudiodesign.bigcartel.com/product/slq-51xLooks like an easy build and pretty full feature set. The manual has resistor values to change the filters freq as you see fit. Is for 51x so keep that in mind if you don't have that kind of chassis, might have to trim the last two fingers on the edge card. Anyways, great price. If it wasn't so close to Christmas I'd get two.

Can’t you get a reasonable approximation with a slugged linear?

Can’t you get a reasonable approximation with a slugged linear? Not for reverse log pots, at least I've never been able to make them work.

I've got two of the kits on a slow boat to the USA from Germany. Left there Nov 26th. 30 or more days delivery. DLH stopped shipping by air and are now shipping by boat. Looking forward to building these SSL EQs.

According to the BOM, Schematic, and the PCB it is using dual log pots.

Looking forward to building these SSL EQs. Look forward to hearing about them. I wanted 2 but was too close to christmas. And now they are sold out sadly. So hope to grab a pair in January.

Looking forward to building these SSL EQs. Did they arrive? Have you had a chance to build it yet? I'm really interested in how they sound.

I am still waiting for delivery, over 60 days. 45 days from Germany to Glaslow, Uk, Then it was put on a ship to the U.S.A. estimated to be over 30 days, (Still on the ship), then the time for U.S. travel and delivery. DHL delivery. I have received DHL deliveries from UK in 3 days. Stopped tracking package. There should be a better way to send the Kits.

Just normal mail would be still via air intead of boat. I got something from Australia in 9 days. And got something else from Spain in like 5.

I am still waiting for delivery, over 60 days. Yikes! That's crazy. Hopefully they're worth the wait. I was going to get 2 and see how they are and then get a few more while the introductory offer was still going. Not possible with that delivery time.

Ordered 2 today. Had a "premium" shipping option which was only 10 bucks more so I did that. Supposed to only take 6-9 days that way. Will see!
For 530 bucks shipped, pretty great deal.
Also he has added 3 different SSL preamps! Pretty interesting looking.

Waiting for a pair at S.Korea. Usually shipments from Germany take relatively long time.
