Lets see, 526 kit minus opamps is $295. Yep, I will set up a vid line and charge $296 pay per view to watch! HAHAHA! We should film the crazy though.

I'll quote myself from my FB post.
I have just finished up kit pricing for the new 500 series CAPI FC526 Compressor. The FET based full kit bundle will be $294.99. This price is for everything except the three audio path opamps that are required. As you can imagine, there will be a huge amount of possible configurations due to the module using three opamps. I will have three available kit bundles at the store to try and simplify what is a little complicated.
Option #1: All Discrete Audio Path. This will include the FC526 Entire Bundle of $294.99. You will have the choice of no opamps (supply your own), three of Scott’s red dots (add $180), three gar2520 kits (add $52.50) or three gar1731 kits (add $51.93). Due to the volume of opamps required, we cannot offer built versions of Gary’s opamps with the FC526. We would however like to keep Scott and his minions…buried :-)
Option #2: Discrete + 1 IC Audio Path. This will include the FC526 Entire Bundle of $294.99 and one LME49710 IC to DOA adapter kit so a new base price of $300.19. From there, you will have the choice to add two red dots (add $130), two gar2520 kits (add $35.00) or two gar1731 kits (add $34.62). The chip can be used in the Receiver position or the VVR Signal Preamp position. Experimentation recommended!
Option #3: Discrete + 2 IC Audio Path. This will include the FC526 Entire Bundle of $294.99 and two LME49710 IC to DOA adapter kits so a new base price of $305.39. From there, you will have the choice to add one red dot (add $65), one gar2520 kit (add $17.50), add one gar1731 kit (add $17.31) or one BB2521 LME49710 Hybrid kit (add $9.58). The Output amp should be a 2520 style or equivalent.
I am shooting for a late February 2015 release date for the kits. Thanks for listening!!

Am I being too cost affordable? Should I raise the price a bit so everyone feels like they're getting something more tangible?   Hey Jeff, how is supply going to be when these hit? Maybe I can convince tonycamphd to build a pair for me. |

Maybe I can convince tonycamphd to build a pair for me. I should be OK but I am wondering though. I think the demand may overwhelm me ( and my wife!). Is it too late to jack up the price a bit???!!  |

PS, I just modified the hours of our event at Randy's next weekend. See the first post of this thread if you will be attending. My main resistor and capacitor sorting specialist (my wife) wants to make sure I'm done and back in time to take her out for some BBQ!
