Not taken personally at all, please note I stressed the "theoretical" part ;) I'm not planning on doing any difficult soldering, it's been more than 20 years since I touched a soldering iron, and that was easy stuff: passive loudspeaker cross-overs. I think combining the two parts I mentioned elsewhere will be quite challenging enough for my skills, and even that is still a far-off project as the PSU-part is not clear at all to me, but that's better discussed in it's own thread.
