somebody posted pictures a couple of months ago with a picture of the inside of a krank pedal, and it looked like it was based on the lm386. Searching might be tough, but I can remember the board shots being posted

Wow !!! Not much going on in there for the price. Sheeesh $150. Delays are cheaper.

no kidding!

$150 seems like a very fair price to me.

Notice they use the -3 version of the chip. The -1 never sounded that good to me in comparison. The -3 & -4 always beat it out.

AHHHH !!! Good point Peter. Very observant. 3 times better = 3 times the cost.
