There is now a NuTube portable amp kit

Some recent digging around Pete Millett’s nutube.us website turned up this interesting page. What we see is a pocket size amplifier powered by AA batteries.

At first glance, it looks similar to a project you can find on this archive of Audio Mania magazine (Japan). Here’s the schematic showing the DC booster power supply:

The Nu:Tekt kit appears to use an opamp driver on the output rather than the FET combo shown above. With the exception of the small daughter board which appears to come assembled (I assume this is the booster), the kit looks to be completely through hole.

Little is revealed on Millett’s site, but I’ll be following this kit with interest!
