thanks for the replies guys!

I've been doing more research and I agree with the last poster in that vocals are also the most important for me. I think I may have settled on the drip version 4 of the LA2. It looks to be making the LA2 a bit more versatile by using to T4s(one fast one slow). Im pretty sure this is the same as the Universal Audio 2-LA-2.

It looks like he makes only the highest quality boards and seeing as this is the first DIY Ill be doing I think a board is a good call. maybe Ill do a point to point from scratch at a later time or something more challenging but for now this seems awesome and looks like I can get an amazing piece of gear out of it.

I've been in contact with Purusha. His cases look fantastic however he is quite far from me and there would be lots of shipping and border fees so we shall see if I go that route. Its hard to find much of anything audio here in Canada.

BTW. there are a lot of 1167 boards! they also seem to be way cheaper then the drip LA2A boards..... I am definitely tempted.

which 1176 are you getting made?
