Thanks Justin. I appreciate the insight. And I'd LOVE to get to discuss the mice and men at TapeOpCon (I'd just love to be there). Unfortunately I wont be going this year. But enjoy it twice at much for me.
However, I'd still be interested to hear your insight on the quality builds of the different brands, as I'll probably be purchasing one in the future. Shoot me a message?

I couldn't agree with you more. Few things could be more true, a hard lesson I learned growing up. (roasted a piece or two in my day)
How ever at this point, I think I am still interested in at least trying. I figure the worst that could happen is in 2 months I could get pissed at my creation, scrap it and buy a
Purple Audio 10-500 (Drooling)
And once I get a few more modules, I probably will anyway. But I really think this sounds like a fun project (especially if it works
). Not to mention, I've already got most of the materials I need to do it.
So today I found a KILLER deal on discrete linear dual power supplies. 20 bucks a pop!! However they are rated at +-15v (but they give a woppin 1.5amps!!) Is this alright? I know most units do 16v, but the spec sheet on the api site says 12/18v. So I'd think 15 would be acceptable?? Like I said, I'm a newbie at this.
Big progress today though, I've finally figured out my last few questions about the pinout setup.
XLR IN .... EDAC pin#
pin 2 ....=.... 10
pin 3 ....=..... 8
pin 1 ....=..... 5
I think... Anyone want to confirm that?
And I answered my own question about the 15 pin sockets. It's an EDAC 306-015-520-102 in case any future readers are interested. They're pretty cheep. About $5.
